From the community
My wife and I have been coming here every June for more than 20 years. I really like the peaceful location, the rooms are always very clean, and it's always enjoyable to meet the other guests. The staff is consistently friendly and extremely helpful. We love visiting our little slice of paradise! Clean rooms, comfortable beds, nice lobby, easy layout, good amenities, and a romantic atmosphere.

“Excellent guesthouse”
We just spent four days at Alexander's. The staff was friendly and always ready to assist with anything we needed. This was our fifth stay there. We keep returning because each visit has been enjoyable. We used one of their special offers and were pleasantly surprised with a free upgrade to a much bigger room. We'll definitely stay at Alexander's again.

“Fab Time”
A close friend was visiting me in Miami Beach, and when I realized he had never been to Key West, we decided to drive down for the day and booked Alexander's online for one night without seeing it in person. It turned out to be the most fabulous guesthouse I've ever had the pleasure of staying at. The owners and staff could not have been friendlier. My friend has already booked his return trip for the first weekend in June to celebrate his retirement. The happy hour cocktails are the best in town, and make sure to get up for breakfast! Thanks, everyone.

“Outstanding B&B”
This is the best bed and breakfast I've ever stayed at, and I still remember the experience clearly. I went for my 30th birthday. The hospitality was outstanding, the staff couldn't have been better, and the other guests were very nice too. Most were repeat visitors, which didn't surprise me. I will definitely return.

“You have not been to Key West till you stayed here”
I was there in 2007 and loved it. Going again next January 2013 and can't wait. It feels like staying with family.
