Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect stay with a wonderful front porch! From the time we walked down the beautifully manicured, lush tropical garden path, to walking into our incredible cottage we felt at home! A BEAUTFUL spotless cottage with great amenities! We had our own lovely little, private courtyard! Although most of our time was spent on the AMAZING porch, and at pool! Just a walk to all the excitement on Duval. Then back to our peaceful oasis. Lights on grounds at night were beautiful too!!!! We will be back!

    Gardenia Cottage - Hidden Oasis close to Duval!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cottage was so cute! Loved getting back to the property after a night on the town - walking the brick path back to our cottage at night felt like a fairytale with all the lights. It truly was a cozy getaway. The only critique I have is it'd be great if the property management would offer delivery of bags from their office. We got in about 4 hours before check-in, and because their office is offsite from the property (it's one of the few cottages in the complex not run by the Simonton Court Hotel), we had to pay for multiple Ubers to drop our bags, then go out a few hours, then back to get our bags & finally to the cottage. Other than that, everything was great! The staff was so friendly and helpful. I'd love to stay again and will be recommending to others!

    Gardenia cottage, key west

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Gardenia cottage was very nice. Great location off of Duval st. About 2 blocks, less than 5 minute walk. Steps from a large pool with lounge chairs. This cottage sleeps 4,it is small but updated. Some cons: the main bedroom is tiny. The night stands are very small and wobbly , a nightmare for a drink or a CPAP machine. The shower has no place but the floor for soap/shampoo and washcloth. It would be a cheap and simple fix if someone would put in the effort. Overall, it’s a great little place with an awesome location! I would recommend especially if they put shelving in the bathroom and bedroom.
