They don’t explicitly say it, but the Saint Hotel Key West clearly caters to the gay community. With the motto “play naughty and sleep saintly,” there’s no doubt you’ll be surrounded by gay guys.

Gay Guesthouses in Key West
Alexander’s Guesthouse
In my opinion, Alexander’s Guesthouse is the most stylish option of all the gay Key West accommodations. Everything has a modern, chic feel. I especially love their rooms that have a private deck with an outdoor shower!
They’re also one of the few accommodations that specifically brand themselves as a gay and lesbian resort in Key West, welcoming every person among the LGBTQ+ community.
Amenities include a large pool, spa, cozy lounges, and several sun decks with clothing-optional areas.
Prices tend to be on the higher side for such a luxurious hotel retreat. If you book through Hotels.com though, you’ll typically get a much better room rate at Alexander’s.
