Truman Annex - Open Floorplan 1BR/1BA with Wonderful Reviews!
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Truman Annex
One of my favorite things about coming to the condo is the location. It is only two blocks from all the action of Duval Street. A perfect day is waking up and walking to Duval Street for a coffee and breakfast, riding a bike to the beach, having lunch at the water (either pack a lunch or at a restaurant), taking a mid-afternoon nap by the pool, going for a run or taking a yoga class, then heading out to Mallory Square for the sunset, and finally, a great dinner somewhere in town. No need for any other kind of transportation other than a bike (I spend enough time in my car when I am back home). The great thing about Key West is that you can find anything you are looking for whether it’s a laid back, relaxing vacation or the liveliness and activity you can be a part of on Duval Street. Richard and Betsy originally lived in the condo next door and when Unit 150 came on the market we decided to make the investment to have a wonderful vacation condo in the heart of old town Key West.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Since we bought the condo we have made numerous upgrades and renovations and we take great pride in maintaining the quality and condition we have created. It is a spacious open floor plan that naturally takes advantage of the beautiful foliage on the back patio. We absolutely love the condo… Please call or email us to discuss the dates you wish to come to the condo and any other questions you have about Key West. Thanks!
Owner's Map of Truman Annex
Hello!! We love Key West and hope you will come down to see first-hand all that it has to offer. It is truly like no other place on earth.
A little about ourselves: Our condo is a family-owned unit that has been with us since 2005, owned by myself, Tyler Naselli, and Richard & Betsy Naselli. Richard and Betsy have been coming to Key West for nearly 20 years and love the warm weather, laid-back lifestyle, and eclectic feel of Key West. We are originally from Syracuse, NY (I now live in Hingham, MA) and love to get out of the cold Northeastern winters or to come down in the off season for a totally different Key West experience.

I realize this review is much later than our trip, but this summer proved to be the busiest yet. We enjoyed our stay at Richard's property and wouldn't hesitate to book again. Learning the parking situation was a little tricky but one call to Richard and things were fine. Any communication with him was comfortable and entertaining. Great sense of humor. I checked a lot of properties prior to this booking and even looked them up while we were "jet setting" on our scooter around the island. So glad we chose the location we did! It is, in fact, in walking distance of so much. We brought our own scooter and bikes and used both when we wanted to venture our farther or scoot up to Publix. The condo neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are friendly. The chickens and roosters are charming! I did not care for the "beach"at Ft. Zachary State Park. Those are not just rocks in the sand, more like mini-boulders! Now, I know KW is not a beach destination but it's worth the drive to the other beach. Most of the restaurants were fine. We alternated between cooking a few meals at the condo or dining out. We especially like Schooner's Wharf and there was a new one called Babalou (spelling?). Excellent Mahi-Mahi sandwich. Kermit's key lime cheesecake was great BUT still enjoyed Key Lime Factory on Front Street just a tad more! YOU MUST eat at Blue Heaven. Just a couple blocks from the Annex and breakfast is well, "heavenly". Never got back for dinner. I guess we just have to come back! You don't have to indulge to enjoy the night life. However, it was hard to pass up some of the speciality drinks at these most colorful and downright awesome bars and eateries! The musical talent at all these places is amazing as well. We tried a couple touristy things to do. Went with Fury for sunset cruise. The night we went was one of the few we could actually see the sun set and there was unlimited champaigne! Need I say more. What a way to celebrate 25 years of marriage! We tried the kayak/snorkel trip with the clear kayaks. I can't remember, but I thought it was called Big Cat. Two young guys run it. Not sure how the cost pp compares with service but we still had a good time. Snacks provided were a little peculiar but after all, we did pay for snorkeling and kayaking. Mallory Square is a must every night as something is always different. Richard said this was not just Southern Florida. KW is a in a world of its own. Can't wait to go back!!

Nice Condo in a Great Area !!

We were guests in this condo from June 11-18. Condo is in a great area of Key West which is very close to Duval St, Fort Zachary Beach, and all of the action. When we arrived at the Condo we found it had not been cleaned so we immediately contacted Richard who scheduled the condo to be fully cleaned the next day. Richard was concerned that the cleaning wasn't done and did his best to take care of the problem immediately. Overall, I didn't consider this a problem...as we were on the beach and out while the condo was cleaned the following day. We would certainly stay at the condo again and will likely call Richard next year to book again. Its very nice having the washer/dryer along with refrigerator in the condo. The Shipyard pool is very nice and perfect for a day away from the beach. We found the condo to be a great deal compared to any of the hotels in Key West.

Review Submitted: 05/21/11
This was our first trip to Key West and this condo unit was the perfect place in the perfect location. 2 blocks from Duval and right in the middle, Mallory Square was a 20 minute walk to the left and Southern Most was a 20 minute walk to the right. We arrived on Sat. and once we picked up some groceries, I returned the car on Sunday and never needed one the rest of the week. The booking process was very smooth and the directions and getting the keys was flawless. The unit was very clean and well kept. The whole Truman Annex area is fantastic. Very secure and quiet. The pool was very nice with plenty of chairs and the friendliest people. Having filtered water was a real plus and even though we didn't use the grill (too many dining out options) it was nice to have one available. We're both now infected with Keys disease and would book this unit again without hesitation for our next stay. Thank you!

We've been to KW at least 10x. By far, the Truman Annex is the best place to stay if you are looking for safety, location, and peace and quiet. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to make light meals. There is a nice pool in the complex that has lots of chairs and umbrellas. This very clean condo is conveniently located 2 blocks from Duval, and a 15 minute walk to the harbor. Things to do: Mallory Square (where everyone gathers to see the sunset and street entertainers) is also a 15 minute walk. If you take a taxi from the airport (approx. $20 each way) you do not need to rent a car at all, unless you want to day trip up to other keys. Fort Zachary Taylor is about 20 min. walk, or an easy bike ride away. Within this gated community is President Truman’s White House, that has a nice tour. We love to take one of the schooners or catamaran rides out of the harbor to kayak and snorkel. There is so much to do in KW that one week is never enough. Try to walk over to The Blue Heaven for a relaxed and delicious breakfast (2 blocks away on Thomas St.). blueheavenkw.com • We haven’t had dinner there yet, but we hear it’s also wonderful. Can’t wait to go back to this wonderful paradise!

Great condo and location

The condo is located at the centrally located part of Key West called the Truman Annex and, in particular, the "Shipyard" section of it. It's a nice complex with plenty of parking and nice amenities like a pool. Everything is within walking distance since you're essentially located in the middle of Key West, a walk from the infamous watering-holes on Duval St as well as nice shopping and not too far a walk from the beaches. The condo is nice and clean with a queen bed in the single bedroom and two fold-out futon couches that convert into queen size beds-- a nice feature for a family or close friends. About the only "improvement" I could suggest was upgrading the "classic tube" TV set with a modern LED 50" flat screen TV-- a nice to have feature since Key West does get cloudy/rainy days, plus it's nice to have in the evening for relaxation. In short, it's a nice place to stay and look forward to the opportunity to stay there again! :)

Wonderful Vacation

We stayed in this condo from Sept 6-11 and had the most wonderful vacation. The apartment is extremely clean and close to all places you will want to visit - 2 blocks away from the center of Duval Street. Everything is in walking distance; not once did we have to take a cab. The pool is very quiet and relaxing and the beach is a little walk, but as close as you can get considering it is a state park. Having a full kitchen and washer/dryer was a big help. I would definitely recommend this condo to any couple or small family. Can't wait to go back!

My wife and I stayed here last week (May, 2010) and really enjoyed ourselves. The location is perfect (close to everything, yet very peaceful and quiet), and the condo was well maintained and clean. Also, the owner is very friendly and eager to work with renters to insure they get the most out of their stay. We would definitely stay here again if we travel to Key west in the future.

Excellent Location/Really Nice Condo

Review Submitted: 11/18/09
We have rented this unit for the last two years and will do so again in the future. It's always been clean and fresh when we arrive. The owner is extremely accommodating and fun to talk to. The condo has enough necessities to get you through the first day or so with toilet tissue and paper towels and the ice maker is wonderful. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, useful utensils. BONUS: the sink has filtered water so you don't have to buy bottled water. There's an abundance of towels and sheets. The W/D allows you to pack fewer clothes, too! The deck is very peaceful and a relaxing place to have your coffee in the mornngs and an early dinner at sunset. The gas grill comes in handy when you just want to eat in for a change, and the microwave works well for all those restaurant leftovers. There are shops and restaurants within a few blocks, as are some really fun bars. The sunset from the Fort behind the Annex is just as awesome as Mallory Square. Security has never been an issue with the condo or our vehicle; we've always felt safe and use common sense as we would anywhere else (lock the doors, lock the vehicle, be observant but not paranoid when walking in dark areas). If you're not inclined to walk a lot, bikes or mopeds are great for getting around since vehicle parking is so limited and the streets so narrow. Cabs are cheap and there are some major grocery stores and liquor stores on N. Roosevelt if you can't find what you need at Fausto's or the corner deli. It's always a fun experience and we highly recomment this condo!
