My husband, friends, and I had a lovely stay at Ridley House. Loved the historic charm and Key West vibe of the house. The A/C wasn’t working well in our room the first night of our stay, but they got it working the second day. The continental breakfast was fantastic, with lots of items to choose from. It’s also in a wonderful location… only two blocks from Duval and a short walk to Mallory Square. We would definitely stay here again and recommend Ridley House to others.

We only stayed a night to party on Duval street and it was perfect. The property is so pretty and only 2 blocks from Duval, so easy to just go back and forth to your room. The staff is so nice and friendly such a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back and probably extend our stay to more then just one night next time.

Breakfast was amazing and a great start to the day. The chef was friendly and a joy to chat with. The pool was a great option and a nice bonus. Happy hour was nice but a suggestion would be to add a white sangria as some can’t have red wines. Overall great experience I would go back!!!
