This was a great stay and the perfect property and location. This was a family getaway for myself and my family of 6. It had everything we needed and more. We truly enjoyed the space the pool and the location. It’s in a great location with n KW for all the things we wanted to do and had every convenience and the host was great at communicating and making sure everything was taken care of. This was truly an unforgettable vacation getaway to the perfect home away from home.

This really is a terrific property. The location is outstanding, walkable to everything we wanted to do in key west. Perfect number of beds and bedrooms for our three families (5 adults and 5 teenagers). Everyone had space to hang out alone or with others. Kitchen was stocked enough to make Thanksgiving dinner (mostly reheating things from Fausto’s). We needed a cookie sheet and the manager dropped one on the porch for us, very helpful. We enjoyed the pool and back patio. Used the laundry machines (outside in the shed and the lighting wasn’t the best but we appreciated having clean clothes). Kids enjoyed the board games. We could hear some music from Duval and the roosters in the morning but nothing that bothered us too much. Would stay again!

Our stay in the house was perfect for the size of our group. The check-in process was easy, the kitchen seemed to have everything needed to cook dinners, our group did not cook. Coffee was provided which was our fuel for the day. The location of the house was perfect, perhaps a minute walk off Duval street. We walked everywhere, including to Fort Zachary Tyler state park which was about a 1.5 miles from the house. The backyard with the pool was our sanctuary for the hot afternoons, floats were provided which made it easy to float and relax along with plenty of pool towels that were provided.We had a great time and would stay here again!

Great location and house for friends or family.

The house was great with plenty of room for all 14 of us on our trip! It had a wide variety of things we might need from pool towels to garbage bags to garlic powder. It was clean and organized and the host's communication was great. We had a couple questions throughout the trip and they answered very quickly and were very helpful. The house is also in a very good location we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. 100% would recommend this house to any large group of people going on vacation in Key West.
