  Spent a week at Hollinsed House "Caribbean Suite". The apartment was clean and spacious. 2 1/2 blocks from Duval Street it is the perfect location. Was a little surprised when a rooster in the neighborhood woke us up in the morning but found out this is Key West where there are chickens everywhere. Loved spending time by the small pool and talking with the other guests.

  Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, girls getaway.

  Owner response: I am so glad that you enjoyed your stay at the Hollinsed House in Key West. If you don't know the history of the chickens in Key West I imagine they are quite a surprise....they are everywhere!! We hope to see you back at the Hollinsed House for another visit.

  Tracy is the epitome of a gracious, hospitable, interested & caring host. This was our 3rd... or is it 4th?? stay at Hollinshed House, tho our first in the Carriage House unit. We were not disappointed. This location is perfect (we park the car and walk wherever we want to go... the location is that good!); the units are always clean, cheerful, welcoming.. with no "unwanted" surprises. Will we stay here again? Already have next visit in planning stages for later in the year and when we plan a trip to Key West, it means we are planning our stay at the Hollinshed House IN Key West! You won't be disappointed in any unit in the "Hollinshed House" compound, in the pool area, in the location. We didn't get the chance to eat at Sara Beth's, but we did have our traditional breakfast of Lobster & Eggs Benedict at Blue Heaven; gotta recommend Fogarty's and you must try the pinacolada at Fogarty's Bar, The Flying Money -- it's the best! At Fogarty's, ask for Tracy or Jamie as your server; the Havana Cafe (take a left on Duval from Southard) was reasonably priced and the breakfast was very good; Caroline's is another fav place for relaxing & having a drink at the outdoor bar and people watching. Thank you again, Tracy. We had a wonderful time and we will be in touch soon to schedule our October visit that we discussed! What another great honeymoon we had there!!! OK... yes, we're still honeymooning after 35 years! John's back "over there", but will be home again in a few weeks...

  Owner response: Melba, I am so glad that you and John had a great time on his reprieve from "over there". Give me a call SOON about October. I have slim pickings!! The Hollinsed House is a great location in Key West, centrally located, close to everything, but in a very quiet location! Looking forward to seeing both of you really soon..........

  We had a lovely stay at Hollinsed House. Our two daughters are both working in Vail (CO) and we are living in Holland, Spain and Curacao, so mostly at a great distance from them. We thought it might be a great idea to meet in Key West and spend a few days together. And a great idea it was! Hollinsed House is a great place to stay, only 1 1/2 block from Duval street, with a nice garden and a great pool and a parking space for the car. We can recommend this vrbo listing highly!!

  Our first trip to Key West was memorable and happy due to the wonderful time we had at Hollinsed House. We stayed there five nights in Feb. This is a large suite, with ample room for 3-4 people. Cute kitchen complete with Keurig coffee maker and anything else you might need. The unit was very clean. The front porch overlooking the pool was a favorite spot for all of us. You cannot beat the location!! Enough off Duval to be relaxing yet close enough to be in the mix in minutes. Both Tracey (manager) and Charles (housekeeper) were incredibly gracious and accommodating.

  Owner response: Elizabeth and Scott we are so glad that you enjoyed your first trip to Key West so much! That is what we like to hear. Charles does a wonderful job at the Hollinsed House and I am lucky to have him taking care of my guests! I hope that you will come back to Key West and of course, the Hollinsed House again! Tracey, the manager.......

  My husband and I just spent 5 days in Key West, and we rented the Poolside Suite. It was much larger than a standard hotel room would have been. It has all the things that we needed for the 5 day stay. We were about 2 blocks away from Duval street. It was close enough that we were able to walk there for dinner every night. Charles we very friendly and very helpful. He helped us rent bikes and let us know where we could find a grocery store close by. I would recommend this suite for a couple who is travelling to Key West. My husband and I plan on going back!!!!

  We stayed in the Shangri La unit which is tucked in the back of the Hollinshead House. What a perfect little place! The location (2 blocks from Duval) couldn't be better - plus you could walk to either end of Duval very easily! It felt like home our unit - it had a little kitchen which was perfect if you wanted to make a meal - but with all the happy hours, we didn't really cook in! We would definitely return and stay in this same unit or try one of the other units if we brought more family with us!

  One of the best kept secrets in Key West! At the last minute I found this listing by chance. Got in touch with Donna who was extremely helpful in getting me booked and set up for a late arrival at the property. Things went so smoothly and sounded so good I was afraid I may have fallen for a scam! To my utter delight the property was even better than I had imagined! My sister and I stayed in the Caribbean Suite. The pictures do not do this place justice! Our two bedroom suite had two king beds, a huge living/dining room area, a full kitchen and a very nice bathroom. The place was absolutely immaculate! The wonderful island feel you get from the vibrant colors and tropical decor added to the ambience of being in the Keys. The full balcony overlooking the grounds was a special treat. We had our coffee and breakfast outside each morning. A very inviting dip pool was a refreshing treat after a long day biking around Key West. The tropical courtyard is so serene you hate to leave. One of the most charming aspects of the entire property was "Charles". What a delightful man! Very charming, funny, knowledgeable, and just treats you like family. We met him while having our morning coffee and he immediately inquired if we found everything to our liking and if he could do anything to make our stay more enjoyable. We did monopolize his time for awhile as he answered all our questions and he gave us a brief history of Hollinsed House. A special thanks for looking after our bikes! The location of the property is fabulous! We got in late (Around 9:00) but were able to find "Pay and Park" street parking less than a block up from Hollinsed House. After we got our luggage in our Suite we went roaming about Duval Street for a few hours. By the time we returned (around 12:30am) there was plenty of parking right in front of the House and easily moved the car. Lastly, as we were sitting by the pool a young lady came to inquire about staying the night. We were delighted to show her around and recommend she call the number we provided her to book a room here. She did. We hope she had as great an experience as we did. Truly "our home away from home". I hope to return again soon.

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Poolside Suite! The suite was extremely comfortable, well equipped, and came as advertised. The grounds were awesome, the pool and sitting areas a private, relaxing respite in 'Old Town' ! After an afternoon of seeing the sites, we would return to the beautiful and peaceful grounds of Hollinsed House and felt like we were in paradise!

  Just got back from Key West. We stayed in the Caribbean suite - the pictures really do not do it justice. The location is amazing - you can walk to just about everything. My only regret is that I didn't contact Tracey before hand to get discounts on our boat trip out to Ft Jefferson/Dry Tortugas. If you visit Key West - this place is quaint, and like the posters below state you are 2 blocks from Duval - but you feel as if you are in your own oasis. Really wish I would've had more time than the three nights !!

  My husband and I recently stayed in the Poolside suite. It was a great place to stay. It was our first visit to Key West. This was a great place within walking distance of lots of great places. It was only 1 block off Duval street but when you were at Hollinsed house you felt like you were much futher away. The kitchen area in the suite was very nice to prepare lunch, etc. There is a little grocery store 2 blocks away on Fleming street that was very easy to get to. We loved the little courtyard and pool. Nice place away from home.
