05 Is Key West a Resort?




Description

This article is from the Key West FAQ, by Rob Miracle rwm@MPGN.COM with numerous contributions by others.

05 Is Key West a Resort?

No! Hilton Head Is. SC is a resort. Key West is a small town where
people work and live. People are born here, and live here all their
lives. There are schools, and car dealers, and other things that a
small town would have. Key West's main industry is tourisim, but the
island is not littered with time-shares and golf-courses. It is a
peaceful sub-tropical fishing village.

Where is a Good/Cheap place to stay?

There are too many places and they change their rates too often to
keep track of. The best bet is to get a AAA Tour Book of Florida or
call the Key West Chamber of Commerce (305-294-2587). There is an 800
number that one can call (800) FLA-KEYS. It is reported to be the
Chamber of Commerce, possibly out of Key Largo, that provides
information on all the Keys.
