Amazing Trip!
This property was fantastic! We were on the quieter end of Duval but still close to anything and everything! The private pool was an excellent way to relax after a hot June day! The bed was very comfy and having a washer/dryer was a nice bonus! The Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory, and the southern buoy are within a short walk. We took a cocktail making class and toured a retired ship museum, toured The Little Whitehouse, had many stops at The Flying Monkey. This truly was a fantastic vacation and all within a close proximity to the cottage!

Perfect stay for our wedding anniversary
We loved our stay at the vintage cottage on Duval St. It was perfect for our 45th wedding anniversary and so peaceful and secluded. The kitchen was compact but it had everything we needed for our stay. The bedroom was quiet and the beds were very comfortable. The pool was a dream, heated at 87 degrees, we were taking dips whenever back at the house. The cottage is close to everything and we liked being on the south end of Duval where it is quiet with some really great restaurants and shops. It is also a short walk to a few beaches. The hosts were extremely responsive to our questions and requests, and did their best to make our visit special. We had such a wonderful time, we are already planning a return next year.

Winter Retreat
The location is absolutely perfect. It is on Duval St but we were pleasantly surprised with the quiet and peaceful and very private courtyard and pool. We felt like we were in a tropical paradise. The pool was so pleasant, heated to a perfect 88 degrees. The cottage itself was very comfortable and well appointed. The bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of closet and drawer space to unpack and settle in for a relaxing stay. We had planned on dining out every night, but the kitchen was perfect for preparing meals and the dining space on the porch was so cozy and comfortable we actually cooked at home three of our six nights. The wine bar and shop next door was very convenient and with an outstanding selection of wines. All in all, I’d say it was the most relaxing tropical vacation we have ever had. We’re already looking at the calendar to plan our return next winter.

We came down for after a Chicago Christmas for a warm up! Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate but we had a great time regardless. The house is super cute and so convenient to everything Key West has to offer. A couple of hitches were addressed right away and we had a wonderful week.

Wonderful property
We have stayed in Key West in many different properties and thought this home was one of our favorites. It's small--1 bed/1 bath but the outdoor space makes up for that! The wonderful pool and backyard area was so enjoyable. It's surprising how quiet the property is for being off Duval. The location can't be beat--you can walk anywhere! The property was very clean. Only improvement would be a new mattress on the bed but we could tell this home is well cared for. Overall a wonderful stay and well worth 5 stars!

Super Location
This little house is very comfortable. The outdoor porch areas and pool are beautiful. It was quiet, yet steps away from restaurants, shopping and ice cream. We enjoyed our stay, despite the weather’s efforts to ruin it.
I did wish for better than terrible 2 ply airport toilet paper. We have never paid so much to stay in a place and the pampering was just slapped in the face right there. Airport quality TP? I really expected decent toilet paper. My husband says that just me. I think others might agree with me!

This place is AMAZING! It was so comfortable, especially the king size bed, which is super important to me on vacation. The location cant't be beat - walking distance to everything but on the less "touristy" part of Duval. The staff that managed our booking was helpful and polite. We love that there was a parking spot available too! One of the best places we've ever stayed, and that's saying a lot because we travel quite a bit!

Perfect Getaway Spot
The cottage is an absolute gem. We came to Key West to have a private wedding and honeymoon. The porch, courtyard and pool were a delightful place for a quiet getaway and ceremony. Just outside the gated courtyard is Duval Street, a few blocks from the southernmost point, on the quiet end of Duval. There is plenty to do without the crowds like the other end of Duval.

Great Location Needs Attention
Beautiful area , fantastic location. Many details overlooked inside and out.
Pros- pool is mostly private with neighboring cottages noisy and able to see and walk through. Walk to anything.
Cons— numerous bugs, including large palmetto bugs in kitchen sink, centipedes in bedroom, under kitchen island. Pool area full of weeds and I had to clean the pool when I arrived. It had iguana poop everywhere. It took me days to get a response from management about where the pool light was and the lights outside were half lit.
Overall I was disappointed at the many details that were overlooked. It did not feel like luxury or worth the expense!
