Bookkeeping Services for Key West Small Businesses

No, and we won't pretend otherwise: Polk County is a long drive north of the Keys. It doesn't affect the work, though, because a Key West engagement runs online: bank feeds, document upload, cloud accounting, video calls, and monthly reports. Most of our Key West clients have never met us in person, and video covers every conversation from onboarding through year-end.

We don't carry island office space; we work remotely from Polk County, so no Duval Street rent ends up in your fee. The service fits smaller operators, a charter, a bar, a tour company, or a couple of rental units under a few hundred transactions a month, rather than mid-market accounts. The fee is a fixed monthly close, not billable hours. If you run a high-volume, multi-entity group, a larger firm may suit you better, and we'll be upfront about it.

Yes. Sales are coded for Florida's 6% state rate plus Monroe County's 1.5% discretionary surtax, per transaction. Short-term rentals across the Keys also owe the county tourist development tax, and we track it unit by unit. Returns come to you ready to file; you or your CPA normally file them.

Key West and the Keys have deep Cuban and Caribbean roots, and Spanish is part of everyday business across the island's hospitality economy. Calls, emails, and document review can all run in Spanish whenever you prefer.

Yes. 'Key West-area' here means all of Monroe County: Key West, Marathon, Islamorada, Key Largo, and the Keys in between. One price and the same work from Key Largo to Key West, with no location markup.

Then you switch. The QuickBooks Online file belongs to you, unlocked, with nothing held back. We send a clean year-end packet to your new bookkeeper and charge nothing for the transition. Thirty days' notice is all we ask.
