Great home base for exploring Key West! It had everything we needed, from beach chairs, beach toys, beach towels to all the kitchen needs. It was very clean and comfortable. We got quick replies for our questions. Location can’t be beat and the swimming pool is wonderful.

Nice place to stay and close to all there is to see

Nice place to stay close to all the things there are to see in the Keys. We did a lot of walking and sitting by the pool which is a really nice pool. If we go back to the Keys in the future this would be on the top of our list of places to stay!!

Great spot and very accommodating host.

Great key west location right next to the splash park and fort Zachary state park beach. A hurricane delayed our departure for a day but the host accommodated an extra night stay. Would book again!!
