"Ahoy there, matey! Welcome to the Lighthouse Hotel, Key West's finest! You're lookin' for a room, I reckon. Well, you've come to the right place. I've got just the thing for ya – a room with a view that'll make you feel like you're livin' on the water itself. How does that sound?"
He leans in, his eyes twinkling with the joy of sharing his love for the islands with newcomers.
