Summary

 Key West Trip Recap: Coconut Beach Resort, Hidden Gem Cocktail & Cooking Classes, and Local Favorites Host Michele O'Connor and her husband Kevin from Out A Here Travel recap a quick Key West trip, sharing planning tips like booking direct flights into the new Key West airport and using Lyft over taxis. They review staying at the quiet, no-frills Coconut Beach Resort (a timeshare where third-party bookings may require switching rooms) and highlight meals and drinks at Flaming Buoy Filet Company, Conch Republic, Miso Happy, Sloppy Joe's, Green Parrot, Bali Bar, and the Tipsy Rooster. Key stops include Mallory Square sunset viewing tips amid seawall repairs, Key West Candle & Bath Company, Island Bookstore's Fun in Key West book club display, the San Carlos Institute, the Shipwreck Museum tower, and Doing Work Coffee. They praise the Key West Cooking Show's cocktail class and lunch cooking show featuring Cuban dishes and Italian-meringue key lime pie, plus note seasonal orchids, a temporary Southernmost Buoy replica, and rising airfare costs. 00:00 Welcome to Fun in Key West 01:26 Trip Recap Kickoff 03:18 Flights and New Airport 05:07 Coconut Beach Resort Stay 09:38 Flaming Buoy Supper Club 12:13 Mallory Square Sunset Tips 15:01 Local Shops and Book Club 17:47 Conch Republic Fish Sandwich 18:58 Cocktail Class Hidden Gem 25:20 Miso Happy Outdoor Seating 26:09 San Carlos Cuban History 27:22 Cooking Show and Key Lime Pie 32:56 Rotating Menu Tips 33:18 Shipwreck Museum Tower 34:06 Wrecking History Gold 35:36 Cooking Show Swag 37:01 Wrecker Towers Explained 38:23 Favorite Bars Debate 42:03 Doing Work Coffee Stop 45:06 Duval Street Changes 46:05 Trip Recap Resources 47:37 Orchid Season Photos 52:20 Airport Rides Savings 54:03 Travel Prices Advice 56:52 Final Thanks Farewell www.outaheretravel.com www.funinkeywest.com
