Key West Charming by AvantStay | CommunalPool | GatedCommunity | Week Long Stays

Roof replacement project in Shipyard is scheduled to start on March 28, 2025, and is expected to take approximately 8-9 months to complete. While work is ongoing, residents and guests may remain in their units, as all units will remain accessible. However, please be aware that there will be noise and construction activity during work hours. The work is done in sections so not all properties will be affected at the same time. Please contact AvantStay for more information regarding the approximate schedule for your unit.

*Please note that this home is available for stays of 7+ days only. Starting January 1, 2026, it will be available for stays of 28+ days only.*

Located at the Shipyard Condominiums downtown Key West, this first floor, 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home has been lovingly cared for by the owners. The living and dining area opens to a large wooden deck in the backyard to relax and soak up the sun in privacy.

The master bedroom has a queen-size bed. The second bedroom has 2 twins. The bathroom is conveniently located in the hallway between the two. A well-equipped kitchen makes any meal you prepare a breeze.

Key West Charming offers the benefit of a great downtown location, within walking distance to all the sights and attractions including Fort Zachary Taylor State Park with one of the nicest beaches on our island. The property is just minutes from Duval Street with restaurants, bars, galleries, tourist attractions, and Sunset Celebration at Mallory Square.

Ride your bike or walk through the beautiful Truman Annex. Play all day out and around town or soak up the afternoon sun at the community swimming pool. Perfect for a couple or a small family.

Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous. It embodies a clash of the past and the present, and every building (including this rental) in Key West reflects this eclectic ambiance!

Perfect location!!

This property is in an absolutely perfect location. We loved our stay here! Only complaints: We had to check in and check out at a location offsite, which is inconvenient. I would have preferred a key pad at the property like many places do—although the staff at the office were immensely kind and hospitable. Also, the queen size bed wasn’t comfortable, so my husband and I slept in the two twins. The kitchen was certainly a plus, but it could use some replenishing of pans and cooking utensils. Water pressure in the shower was amazing!! Again—perfect location!! I certainly would not hesitate to stay here again. Amazing times!

Christmas Getaway

The place was as advertised. Property is conveniently located near Duval Street. The only issue we had with the stay was the Wi-Fi. Reception was nonexistent at worst and poor at best. Do not plan to work remotely from this stay…enjoy your vacation instead. Signed, A Serious Workaholic

Liked: Cleanliness

The unit was nice, clean and suitable for accommodations.

I had a BIG problem with the parking situation. I understand we couldn’t park our F350 there since it is 20’ long. But my problem was we had 2 golf carts and had passes for both from security. We parked both in our parking space, but received a ticket. They said we could only park 1 golf cart in the space. We paid for the space and we were not outside the parking space. They said it didn’t make a difference. We will probably NEVER stay at the Truman Annex again. The security guards are terrible. They think they have all the authority to do what they want you to do. They were VERY ARROGANT! If I had people like that working for me,, they wouldn’t work very long. I did not see anything in the paperwork that said we couldn’t park 2 golf carts in our space. It is a good way to make people stop staying at the Truman Annex. For the price we paid, we should have been able to provide parking for our Golf carts.

First-time visitor to Key West

This was a great property located in a wonderful section of Old Town Key West. Convenient to many attractions. Neighbors nearby were extraordinarily friendly. We enjoyed spending our mornings out on the patio drinking coffee and pine or day before heading out to see the local attractions. Would definitely recommend.

Great little hideaway.

The property is really cute, clean and very conveniently located. We had a few maintenance issues during our stay, but the staff was super responsive and did everything they could to minimize inconvenience. Thanks Brigit and Samantha!

Nice location, on the quiet side of the property

The location is on the quiet side of the property and the parking space is right in front of the unit. The small kitchen is well supplied and has been updated. The bathroom is very small. The main bedroom has a queen size bed and two twins in the second room. The furniture in the living room is dated as is the outdoor furniture. The unit was clean, plenty of towels were provided and having the washer/dryer was great. They provided enough bathroom/kitchen/detergent supplies for a one week stay. Missing is a barbeque, lounge chairs for outside and there are not any bikes or beach items. Since all local beaches require you to pay for umbrellas and chairs ($10 each) it would be nice if some items were provided at the unit. Others we have stayed in do provide those items. It was our second time at Truman Annex and the location is really the positive attribute if you like to walk to Duvall Street, Mallory Square, restaurants, museums and shopping. The downside is a very small, crowded pool and it is quite a distance from the beaches so you need bikes, a car or a moped. Overall, our stay was very nice.
