Can't go wrong with a place called Jewfish Key in Florida

The explosion of kosher traveling isn't that old. So I disagree with this.

Though I doubt a place like this is sustainable in the middle of no where open all year long and 100% kosher.

A kosher option would be easier to sustain.
A long time ago, before Cancun was built, when Acapulco Mexico was the place to go on vacation. They had a lot of Jewish tourists as well, to the extend that one of the hotels there would become a kosher hotel for part of the summer each year, complete with a shul and everything.

Maybe a similar model can work, where there are kosher months and non-kosher months?

That's how it's done in Europe with a number of hotels turning over in the summer months.

What about a hotel with an attached/nearby restaurant that's more bed and breakfast/heimish style
