Why guests love itThe Mermaid & the Alligator is listed as adults-only, so families with children should look elsewhere in Key West. For couples, it scores 9.3 out of 10 across 166 reviews. The year-round outdoor pool, the hot tub, the sun terrace and the garden make a calm base, and rooms are air-conditioned with garden views. South Beach, the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum and Duval Street are close by. I recommend it to adults who want a garden-focused stay near Old Town.
