This is the place

This is the place. The place to listen to birds and rustling palms. Our Nineteen fifties chic bungalow was perfect, clean, and quiet. We enjoyed our mornings poolside with Five Brothers Cuban coffee and pastelitos. The location is amazing for a short drive to Key West or Marathon.The Hosts are amazing, delivering pastries and information regularly.We're very much looking forward to our next stay.

Birthday Getaway in the Keys

My partner and I loved staying at Palm Cottage for 5 nights. Hope was available as needed, shared information on restaurants, etc and we had everything we needed. The pool was clean and very nice, also. The location at Summerland Key was very quiet and convenient to Key West as well as Bahia Honda State Park. Appreciated having use of beach chairs and towels for the beach. We definitely would like to return!

They made us feel welcome, the pool was perfect and clean, the owner cut fresh coconuts for our girls to try, we had donuts and muffins dropped to our door lastly their recommendations were spot on and made our whole Florida Keys vacation. We highly recommend this place and would return.lastly

Lovely stay

We really enjoyed our stay at the Palm Cottage. It was close to all the sites but we also enjoyed just hanging out at the pool. It was very quiet and we basically had the resort to ourselves, which was lovely. The cottage itself was simple but clean and had everything we needed. Hosts were not around while we were there, but they provided the direction and information we needed and I suspect would have answered any questions if we had any. We did meet a caretaker who answered some basic housekeeping questions we had. We would go back and recommend it to others who enjoy the peace and quiet and being away from all the hustle and bustle.

GIRLS TRIP -- (ran out of room below, would give this place 10 stars if I could!)

Just returned from our amazing vacation to the Florida Keys. We had 3 ladies on our annual girls trip this year and we stayed in the Palm Cottage.I cannot tell you enough how wonderful Hidden Hammock is. We dubbed it “Little Melrose Place”. It’s such a cute little community. We arrived at dark, but the outdoor light was on and door ajar so we could easily get inside. There were 3 of us ladies so we had plenty of room inside the cottage. There were 5 or 6 (very nice) beach towels, 2 (very nice) beach chairs and a (also very nice) beach umbrella. Since there were 3 of us, Hope brought us a third chair and a cooler right away, as we were headed to the beach that day. At other places we've stayed, if the description says there are beach chairs, it usually means they are broken down ones that other guests have left. Not here, everything was brand new! It was so nice not having to go and spend money on a beach chair, umbrella and cooler! We hung out by the pool on Monday. There are 3 other cottages at Hidden Hammock and the guests at the other places came to the pool that day too, and we all hung out together (hence, "little Melrose Place") Hope was there as well and even grilled us ALL hamburgers and hotdogs. It was a very lovely day.We loved the location of Summerland Key. We could drive 30-40 minutes either way and have plenty of activities to do and restaurants to go to, although you could also drive as little as 5 minutes to find some great places to eat!

Nice Holiday Getaway

We had a wonderful stay at Palm Cottage over the holidays. Hope, the property manager, was very welcoming and helpful when we had questions. She left goodies for us for the holiday and made sure we were comfortable. The property was great and we really enjoyed the heated pool. Quiet road and location and was able to go for a nice neighborhood walk.

Very comfortable low key rental. The house was clean and setup perfectly for what we needed. The pool was very warm more like an oversized hot tub but it was still nice to hang out in after a day out. Loved the outdoor shower! Will definitely keep this on our list of places to stay for our next trip down!

Easy from start to finish! Lovely cottage in very central location in the Florida Keys. Hope was the highlight of the trip, truly the “hostess with the mostest.” She checked in daily, offered great tips for restaurants and activities. Loved everything about the property: quiet, the outdoor shower, the beds, the pool, Lulu, and the freshest seafood! Would definitely recommend.

This is a beautiful property. Beautiful grounds with a lot of open space, wetlands, tons of birds... The cottage itself was perfect. The bed was comfy, the shower was great and we had everything that we needed. There's a grill near the pool and that was perfect for a nice dinner at 'home'. The pool was beautiful as well, a little chilly while we were there, but still perfect. There's a lot to explore and do around Summerland Key, lots of nature trails and whatnot. And it's a nice quiet location to come back to after exploring the other Keys. We had a fantastic time!
