“I had the best time at Margaritaville Beach House Key West for our joint bachelor and bachelorette trip. The resort was gorgeous and the staff really went above and beyond—we were spoiled with cookies, water, and smoothies by the pool every day. We rented bikes from the resort, which made it super easy to explore, and we loved how close we were to Duval Street. Walking around Key West, grabbing drinks, and soaking in the island vibes was exactly what we needed. We also did the Fury Ultimate Adventure H2.0 and it was a blast- parasailing, jet skiing, an ocean obstacle course on the ocean water, and even a banana boat ride. Having both our groups together made it even more fun and special.”

The Classic Bachelor Party: Bros, Boats, and Brews
For the groom and his crew, Key West offers a smorgasbord of activities that scream "man-cation." Start your day with a fishing charter, where you can test your angling skills against the abundant marine life of the Florida Keys. Who knows? You might even catch dinner!
As the day heats up, cool down with some water sports. Jet skiing, parasailing, or kayaking through the mangroves – the options are as endless as the horizon.
And when the sun starts to dip, it's time for a beachy bar crawl. Sample local brews, learn to mix the perfect tiki cocktail, or join a sunset sail complete with cigars and rum tastings. It's a day that would make Hemingway himself raise a glass in approval.
Bachelorette Bliss: Sun, Sand, and Sisterhood
Ladies, get ready for a getaway that's equal parts relaxation and celebration. Begin with a beachside yoga session to center yourselves and set intentions for the bride's new chapter.
Follow it up with a pampering spa day, because let's face it, wedding planning can be stressful, and you deserve some TLC in a gorgeous destination spot.
As the day progresses, why not try a margarita-making workshop? It's a skill that'll serve you well long after the big day. For the adventurous crew, a paddleboard excursion or snorkeling trip offers a chance to explore the crystal-clear waters and vibrant marine life.
Cap off the evening with a wine tasting tour or a sunset cruise. With the warm breeze in your hair and your best gals by your side, it's a picture-perfect way to celebrate sisterhood and new beginnings.
The New Wave: Co-ed Celebrations for Modern Couples
More and more couples are choosing to celebrate together, and Key West is the perfect playground for a co-ed bash. Why not organize a beach Olympics? Teams can compete in everything from sandcastle building to coconut bowling. A scavenger hunt around the island is another great way to explore while bonding with your crew.
For evening entertainment, a karaoke cruise combines the best of both worlds – stunning ocean views and the chance to belt out your favorite tunes. Just remember, what happens on the karaoke boat stays on the karaoke boat!
