Key West, Florida’s southernmost point, is set to welcome a new addition to its hospitality scene—the Blue Flamingo Resort Key West, opening its doors in July 2025. Easily spotted thanks to its signature flamingo mural, this property transforms two retro motor lodges into a single getaway, promising your clients a unique blend of the island’s rich history and contemporary flair.
“Whether looking to lounge in one of our two backyard pools or for an action-packed vacation planned by our in-house activities concierge, Blue Flamingo embraces the energy and debauchery of Key West with top tier hospitality experiences,” says John Tolbert, SVP BRE Hotels & Resorts, in a press statement.
Blue Flamingo’s Chill Vibe
The resort in New Town pays homage to Key West’s eclectic community through its amenities and dining concepts. At its heart lies The Backyard Pool & Social Club, featuring two pools and a variety of activities coordinated by an in-house concierge. The 245 accommodations, ranging from Deluxe rooms to spacious Suites, are designed in soothing sandy shades and offer views of the ocean, island or tropical surroundings.
Blue Flamingo’s event spaces cater to various gatherings, from bachelorette parties to family retreats. The flexible layout includes a pool table, vinyl record player and colorful murals.
The resort’s dining options, Rum Row and Toasted Coconut, serve up local flavors and island-inspired cuisine poolside. The bars feature an array of tropical cocktails, including a signature 64-ounce “Blue Flamingo Bowl.” Food offerings range from coconut shrimp to poke bowls.
The property also features a retail store offering hotel-branded keepsakes and local goods, including sun essentials from Vacation Inc. and hand-rolled cigars from Rodriguez Cigars, Key West’s oldest cigar factory.
