An Unforgettable Escape – The Key West of New Jersey is Pure Magic

From the second we pulled into the driveway of The Key West of New Jersey, we were absolutely taken aback. The name says it all—this place genuinely transports you to a tropical oasis, right in the heart of New Jersey. We were instantly swept away by the vibrant colors, lush landscaping, and the overall vibe of the property. It’s hard to believe you’re still in the Garden State when you’re surrounded by palm-inspired décor, coastal accents, and that relaxed, laid-back Key West energy.Even though we had high expectations based on the photos, nothing could have prepared us for just how gorgeous this home is in person. The pictures don’t capture the full charm or the thoughtful touches around every corner. From the moment you step inside, it’s clear that this home is lovingly maintained and masterfully designed. Every room flows with personality and character while remaining incredibly clean, comfortable, and welcoming. The Key West theme isn’t just a gimmick—it’s carried through beautifully, from the furniture and artwork down to the smallest details like light fixtures and color palettes.One of the biggest highlights for us was how immaculately clean and well-organized everything was. It’s obvious the hosts put great care into maintaining the property. Every drawer was tidy, the kitchen was perfectly equipped, linens were fresh, and clean jt was! Now let’s talk about the amenities—because wow, this place has everything. The hot tub was perfect for unwinding after a day

2nd Annual Family Weekend

The house was spacious enough for the 8 adults, and 3 children that we were traveling with. The house included games and activities for the children for varying ages. Their DVD selections were really good and we were able to find movies for everyone to enjoy. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed.

Do not miss this!

We just got back from our stay at key west in Cape may. I can not say enough good things about this property! The attention to detail that the host provides is just perfect. It is fun and whimsical...not to mention pictures do not do it justice! The hosts answered every question I had within a few minutes. It was spacious. Everything in the kitchen was well stocked. If we could have stayed longer I 100% would have. We hiked, put together puzzles, played in the game room and had the most relaxing soaks in the hot tub. If I can find another free weekend I would be back in a heartbeat. Thank you guys so much for having us. It was the perfect little get away!

Cute house!

We had group of 8 and the layout of the house and bedrooms was perfect. We were all able to eat together and the bedrooms were a nice size. We played games, enjoyed the hot tub, and the beach Santa vibe was enjoyable for all! The house was spotless when we arrived. Access to the park out back was a nice bonus.

We had a wonderful time at your home. It was just what we all needed. Even though from the outside the house doesn’t look huge. There are spaces and rooms and little areas for everyone. The game room was a hit! Hot tub was great! Kitchen was multi purpose while preparing dinner. Just perfect!

Cape May Family Vacation

Our group of 5 adults and 2 chuldren decided to vacation at Cape May this year. We were searching for a private home with a pool and hot tub on site. This tastefully decorated home suited our needs perfectly! With it's Key West vibes of Hemingway and flamingos, it's easy to relax and let your troubles float away! Cooking at home was easy with the well stocked kitchen and coffee every morning on the deck! Two spacious living rooms provided ample room to be together or enjoy time alone. Bedrooms are large with comfy mattresses. Shed is stocked with anything you may want/need to swim in the large pool or go to the beach! Although we didn't use, there are bikes and kayaks. Nature preserve adjoining the property provided hours of walking pleasure at a nice slow pace for us. Proximity to Cape May Beach and Wildwood just a short drive away, along with dining, boardwalks, ice cream and mini golf! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Villas and would highly recommended the Key West home for anyone considering a Cape May vacation.

Perfect weekend getaway

The home was truly home away from home. It has everything you need to enjoy yourself and your family. We rode bikes to the ice cream stand. Went to the beach 2 blocks over and of course enjoyed the hot tube. We would absolutely stay there again without hesitation!!
