Captain’s Quarters vacation rental suite is ideally situated on tiny Ann Street, where the Key West downtown Old Town and Historic Seaport neighborhoods meet. A command view of famous Greene Street from the front porch, rent this suite and you’re a stones throw from Front Street, literally around the corner from Sloppy Joe’s on Duval Street, and just down the street from some of Key West’s main attractions including the Mallory Square Sunset Celebration, Mel Fisher Treasure Museum, Custom House Museum, Conch Train Station, and Key West Historic Harbor to name just a few. And yet Captain’s Quarters puts you just far enough away from the thoroughfare to find peace and quiet for a great night sleep. Compare these features and the exact location of this suite to the expensive hotels around the corner, and you know you’ve found a great deal!
Interior Layout:
Recently renovated and newly furnished, this spacious suite with 2 private porches is comprised of one-half of the entire 2nd floor (or a full one-quarter)of our 2-story Key West Quarter House. Captain’s Quarters provides a full 600 Square feet of hidden interior living space plus its own private covered back porch off the bedroom. The straight forward layout provides a beautifully furnished living-room and fully equipped kitchen at the front of the unit and bedroom and bathroom at the rear. Truth be known, the living room kitchen area is as large as most free-standing Key West conch cottages, and the back porch provides a private little outdoor living space all your own.
Inside, the ceiling of the living room and kitchen have been finished right up to the roof-line making the main living area feel even larger. Light wood kitchen cabinetry topped with large black granite tiles give the suite a contemporary look. A ‘supper bar’ set with four round leather topped bar stools separate the kitchen and living room, and give plenty of room to sit and enjoy a home-cooked meal if you decide to stay in. Light wood floors and walls painted lemon-cream sorbet, provide a refreshing backdrop for the cushy ice-blue sleeper sofa and multi-colored striped slipper chairs, and contemporary art work in the living room. A 36 inch flat-screen TV is mounted on the wall for easy viewing from the living room and kitchen.
The bedroom in Captain’s Quarters vacation rental suite is much larger than you’ll find in most expensive hotel rooms down the street, and of course the private back balcony porch adjoining the bedroom makes it even larger. Bedroom décor is kept simple and to the point with a king size bed, wicker tables and reading lamps on either side of the bed. Walls received the same lemon-cream sorbet color as the front of the unit and the floor is carpeted with basic stock. Oh yes, and the bedroom provides a full size closet. The full bathroom has a tub and in-tub shower and updated with a single vanity sink.
Exterior:
Compared to many of the other historic Victorian and brick buildings around the neighborhood, the building is a real ‘plain Jane’ and when you drive by it you would never know it has this beautiful suite inside. Nonetheless, the ordinary grey exterior has just recently received some fresh paint and lattice work, and the front now proudly flies the flag of the Conch Republic.

This place is located behind Sloppy Joe's. It is close to everything you want to see and do, yet once inside it is very quiet. It was neat and clean. We would definitely stay again!
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, tourists without a car.
Perfect Location for Key West

EXCELLENT location; you can walk to almost everything Key West has to offer. The apt. was very clean and comfortable inside. All of the amenities were clean, up-to-date and worked as expected. Outside was worn and scruffy, but not bad and not dirty. Typical for the FL Keys at this price. The price was unbeatable for the location and does not reflect the quality of the unit inside. The unit was fairly quiet. No traffic or pedestrian noise at all. The booming bass notes from a couple of nearby nightclubs was noticeable on Friday night, but not really disturbing. I would highly recommend this rental. As long as your expectations are not for luxury, you will be very happy. Again, you can NOT beat the price for the location and, frankly, I expected worse when I heard the price! The management is flexible regarding length of stay too, which is a huge plus in a Key West VRBO and hard to find. I will more than likely stay at the same place the next time I visit.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, tourists without a car, age 55+, girls getaway.
Great Management Group--easy!

The apartment is in a perfect location with easy access to everything Duval. Very quiet and clean, but only steps away from all the action. The management team made it very easy. I will definitely stay here again. No toiletries of any type, so pack as needed. Towels and paper products are provided.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children.
