This is our 2nd stay in the Conch Cottage, and we hope to have several more. Has everything we need, cozy, relaxing, convenient location, charming decor, comfy bed, shady garden (a big plus for us!) and, a hot tub!
Great location - close to everything but away from the noise of Duvall street. Private outdoor space is a great way to enjoy a quiet morning, recharge before dinner, or relax before bed. Easy check-in and no long list of chores for check-out. Would stay here again.
This place is perfect for a couple visiting Key West! Perfect location and well maintained property!

Conch Cottage is a quaint centrally located rental location - you can easily get just about anywhere by bicycle. Preferred Properties made our visit seamless offering suggestions for meals, entertainment, bike rentals,etc.
The Conch Cottage was not only adorable but very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect. Walking distance to restaurants/bars, drug store, grocery store, and Simonton Street Beach, which we walked to daily. Would definitely recommend Conch Cottage!

Conch Cottage is PERFECT for 2 people. It's location is great, its layout is great and the back area is private. We were in the hot tub every night.
The house was great and the patio beautiful but hard to enjoy because of the Pot smell! Also the mattress on the bed was way too soft.Other than those two things we loved the location and walked almost everywhere!

We stayed at the Conch Cabin for a second time. We stayed two years ago and fell in love and booked it again two years later for an anniversary trip. It is perfect for a couple looking for privacy, yet in walking distance of literally everything. Perfect is the only way to describe it! We will be back again!
The property is wonderful, and we loved everything about the clean, comfortable cottage. The location was great. The private back patio with the hot tub and outdoor shower was amazing. We’ve never worked with Preferred Properties before, but they were awesome and we highly recommend them!!

Delightful little cottage with lovely private shady garden with hot tub.
First trip to Key West for my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. Conch Cottage was the perfect spot to call home on our stay. Centrally located on the island and just a block from Duval Street. We will be back for sure.
