What's better than a sunny vacation to the Florida Keys? A sunny vacation to the Florida Keys with man's best friend! The Keys is already a great destination for animal lovers, and it's made even better by the fact that these hotels and resorts welcome you, your family and your fur baby.

Baker's Cay Resort in Key Largo welcomes up to two pets for seven nights for a $75 fee. The resort is settled on 15 acres full of natures trails and sandy shores where your beloved companion can take invigorating walks. Just make sure your dog gets along well with cats, as friendly felines can be found hanging around the resort! Your pet can also socialize the resort's Cay-9 Director of Pet Relations, the lovely husky Maya.

This Islamorada resort welcomes two pets up to 40 lbs. for an additional fee of $75. Guests can bring both dogs and cats to the resort's pet-friendly rooms. There is a grassy relief area with waste bags on the property and an on-site dog park. The resort even offers a gourmet menu for dogs, so your dog will feel as pampered as you!

Cheeca Lodge is another Islamorada resort that welcomes guests traveling with their pets. Dogs are permitted to stay in Golf View Double Queen Rooms and Golf View 1-Bedroom Suite at the resort. With a 1,100-foot palm-lined private beach, your dog will love soaking up the sun as much as you.

Grassy Flats is a Marathon-based resort that welcomes pets up to 40 lbs. for a $50 fee. The resort is located on a private beach where your beloved pet can stretch its legs along with a lush garden that provides a great setting for photos of you and your little travel buddy.

Though this Marathon resort only welcomes service animals, Isla Bella Beach Resort makes sure there are plenty of amenities that will allow your companions to enjoy their stay. The resort has two on-site dog parks where your dog can take off the vest to run and play. Like Baker Cay's resort, make sure your furry friend won't be bothered by the cats that can be seen wandering around.

This Key West hotel not only welcomes pets but actively encourages guests to bring them! Unlike many other pet-friendly resorts, The Perry Hotel has no size limit.
