Key West is the one full of bars. As long as it isn't Spring time, not a ton of college kids. All of the bars (well, most) are located along Duval street. You do want to avoid it with kids in tow at night.
Key Largo is not too far of a drive. It is central to Pennekamp, a fairly short drive to Theater of the Sea and Robbie's.
Clearwater is a bit of a hike from Orlando. But nice beaches. There is a new Children's Museum in Tampa, which is on the way from Orlando.
