Discover Key WEst

A refined lens on

I first moved to Key West as a teenager and have spent the past 15 years in luxury hospitality on the island. I know what’s consistently excellent here, what’s overhyped, and how to shape a visit that feels effortless instead of over-planned. Luke’s List exists to cut through the noise and highlight the experiences that are genuinely worth your time.

Key West from

This site is a curated guide to the best of Key West — dining, on-the-water adventures, guided tours, wellness, arts and culture, and the quieter moments that make the island special. Everything is current, considered, and chosen with care, so you don’t have to rely on outdated blogs, random reviews, or endless videos.

a local's perspective

Luke’s List also offers optional concierge services for guests who want clarity, access, or a plan tailored to how they actually travel. You can explore on your own, or work with me directly to refine your itinerary, secure the right experiences, and avoid trial-and-error on a short stay. The goal is simple: fewer decisions, better days, and a Key West experience you feel confident about from the start.

Gratuities

This guide is offered freely and without paid placements. If you don’t require full concierge planning but found these recommendations helpful and would like to show a little support, there is a secure payment link below. It is never necessary — but always appreciated.
