About Bobby's Monkey Bar

Cash-only dive bar one block off Duval Street where monkey memorabilia hangs from the rafters and karaoke runs every single night of the year starting at 9:30pm. Strong pours at happy hour prices (noon to 8pm daily), pool tables, and a jukebox round out the no-frills setup. Bobby's draws a loyal mix of boat captains, drag queens, and tourists who all end up on the same bar stools—often described as the Cheers of Key West's gay scene. It's the kind of place where strangers become regulars after one karaoke song.

Gay Resorts in Florida: Fort Lauderdale, Key West, Miami Beach, St. Pete and Tampa

Florida's gay resorts are spread across five cities with very different styles. Here is the statewide picture: which cities have clothing-optional men's resorts, which have gay hotels anyone can book, what each one's own site says it costs, and where to go deeper.

Gay Resorts in Key West: Island House, New Orleans House, Alexander's and La Te Da, Property by Property

Key West is down to four gay-owned or gay-centered places to stay after Equator Resort closed in January 2025: two clothing-optional men's resorts, one adults-only guesthouse that welcomes everyone, and the hotel that shares its grounds with a nightly drag cabaret and the Sunday Tea Dance. Here is what each one's own site says about who can stay, where clothing is optional, what it costs and which weekends carry minimum stays.
