THE ROYAL COMPOUND @ THE ANNEX Lush Estate & Pool + LAST KEY SERVICES...

FLEXIBLE, NO-FEE CANCELLATION INCLUDED: Rentals are 100% Refundable until 30 days prior to your arrival!

Located in the Truman Annex, a gated community with some of the most impressive homes in Key West, this meticulously furnished estate occupies an entire block, making it the largest single property in the Annex. Formerly referred to as THE ROYAL COMPOUND with three dwellings, two kitchens (one indoor, one outdoor), a very large pool and enough surrounding property to provide the ultimate in privacy, THE ROYAL COMPOUND provides an exclusively luxurious setting right in the heart of Old Town Key West.

THE LIVING AREA and INDOOR KITCHEN...

Inside, the main living area of THE ROYAL COMPOUND has four sets of French doors with large transoms that fill the whole space with light. There's also a large fireplace, unique in Key West. The formal dining table seats eight comfortably. A second sitting room is perfect if you want to be by yourself for a good read. The kitchen is state-of-the-art, and suitable for a professional chef, with double ovens, a huge Sub Zero fridge/freezer, ice maker and plenty of prep space.

THE PRIVATE POOL and OUTDOOR KITCHEN....

The pool area of THE ROYAL COMPOUND is unique. The spacious patio surrounding the pool is paved in Travertine, with room for eight chaises. Then, there's the pavilion-style porch that seems to float above the very large pool, with enough seating for the entire group under outdoor ceiling fans hung from the vaulted ceiling of the pavilion. The pool has a waterfall that flows from the edge of the porch. Very dramatic. Finally, there's the outdoor bar with a summer kitchen including a full refrigerator; large enough for a party or poolside BBQ any time.

Compliance with Truman Annex Community Rules & Regulations is expected of all Last Key guests. This includes “Quiet Time” in all outdoor areas, public and private, after 10PM.

Fantastic outdoor oasis

This house was top quality throughout and the management team was excellent. Highly recommend for families. Everything was clean and worked well. Pool was fantastic. I personally didn't love being in the Truman Complex because of the locked gates, but others may love it. It just means you have a slightly longer walk home from all but the Green Parrot after 10 pm.

Tropic Oasis

Truly an amazing property. From the main house to the two separate master bedroom buildings. Unbelievable outdoor kitchen and bar complete with all appliances, stainless BBQ grill and wall mounted tv. Fully furnished gazebo with fans next to a spectacular pool with waterfall. Very well landscaped with lush vegetation, bamboo, and 90’ Coconut Palms making the whole Compound very secluded. Inside of the main house was beautiful, spacious, and comfortable. All appliances were high end and were a pleasure to use. The whole property was very well maintained and the staff of the management company were available anytime and very efficient in every manner. The Royal Compound, along with its prime location would be a dream vacation for anyone!

Paradise in perfect location

This a perfect spot for a large family or group to relax and check out Key West. Located in a quiet gated community, the Truman Annex, this is a very private compound with a large main house with 3 bedrooms, a separate master suite house and a back cottage with queen bed and bathroom. The center of the property contains a great pool, large pergola deck and hot tub. Very quite and secluded by beautiful landscaping. Quick walk to watch the sunset on the square or to check out Duval street. One of the nicest properties we’ve ever stayed at.

This House MADE our vacation

The listing is good, but doesn't quite prepare you for just how nice this property actually is. We had 2 families stay in this house and this property is what made our vacation amazing. We had lots of activites in Key West but the kids often just wanted to come hang out at the pool and back patio as well. Overall and wonderful experience and Shel, property manager, was wonderful.

Excellent property and service

We rented the home for 9 nights and it was in excellent condition and surpassed our expectations. It is very spacious with much outdoors space, in door living space, and larger bedrooms so your group will not feel on top of each other. The extra space provided by the outdoor kitchen and outdoor living room really are enjoyable and useful. The kitchen is very well stocked for making lunches and dinners. The location is excellent for anything you would like to do in Key West. Rounding out the great experience is the management company. They are extremely organized and responsive and have a team willing to help you with anything that you need at the property and to plan any excursions or reservations - such an extra and helpful service. All in all an excellent experience.

Special Hidden Gem!!!

We have been been coming down to Key West for spring break many of years with the whole family. We always stayed at Sunset Key. We decide to change it up. We are so glad we did, this property was AMAZING!!!! It had everything we were looking for!!! Everyone had there own space with the guest suits, great outdoor living and full kitchen area, beautifully pool and backyard. We could not ask for a better location close that you can walk/bike into town but far enough to have our privacy. The house has everything you want for tropical vacation. Shel Segel from Last Key Realty was a wonderful host making sure we felt right at home. Thank you again for making family memories for us!!! See you next year

Special place for a special time.

Our son was recently married in Key West, and we wanted a special meeting place for the many out of town relatives & guests. Plantation Tropical was the perfect choice. First of all the facility set up perfectly for a wide variety of functions, from communing around the large outdoor kitchen, lounging in the grotto-style pool, to late night chats in the awesome gazebo area. The home was versatile, comfortable, and picturesque. The photographer took full advantage the lush landscaping for exquisite pre-wedding photos, and the wedding party used varies areas of house to prepare for the event. But, it wouldn't have been the same without the terrific work of Shel Segel and the fine folks at Last Key Realty. Shel was the quintessential host, and helped us with details, provisions and recommendations, and the Last Key Concierge was there to help arrange any last minute excursions. We highly recommend this home for anyone looking for casual luxury, and a great open floor plan. Thanks again to Shel & Last Key... awesome job helping create a lasting memory.

Fabulous!!!!!

We shared a great week with friends and family. The house is so beautiful and has so many amenities, we were torn between staying put and venturing out into Key West. The pool and outside living room are where we spent most of our time. The Truman White House is literally across the street. We walked to Mallory Square, Duval St and the beach at Fort Zachary Taylor. The Truman Annex is very quiet. Thanks Shel for a memorable week.!!!!
