Well, I'm been down in the Florida Keys since 1997, and lived in Key West along with several of the other islands, so I can help you with this area if you decide this is where you want to get a place.

But my suggestion would be to talk in more detail with "all the people you know" and find out specifically where they've been going and if that's where they want to go again or if they go to different places each time. Might make it easier to rent a place to them if it's where they want to go versus getting a place that's located somewhere else.

Some people love the Orlando area for the theme parks while others want the Miami/South Beach nightlife or the Keys for their island lifestyle and great fishing. If you find out where your friends are going now you can use that to help make your decision.

And like I said, if you decide on the Keys just let me know and I'll get you pointed in the right directions.
