The cottage is beautiful and very comfortable. Perfect for 2 couples with both bedrooms having their own bathrooms. Kitchen is fully stocked. The back patio is set up for relaxing and grilling. Washer and dryer is easily accessible in the backyard as well as the hot tub tucked away in the side yard. The location is perfect for easy access to Duvall St. I highly recommend this property!

Very modern and clean home. We were two married couples and we wanted equal accommodations, so this was the best cottage for our desired needs. The process was effortless with constant necessary communication from the host. It is centrally located, accessible to Duval and other parts of Key West. Host arranged our golf cart rental for us so easily, that was a bonus amenity to this host. We didn’t get to use the hot tub because of time but we looked at it and it was well kept and very inviting to use! Rooms were stocked with every essential. We went in July and the place was kept very cool, we had to turn the AC down more to even out the cooling temperatures between the rooms. Because it was hot, we want to make other guests be mindful of your sweets in the trash because of ants. As long as you are responsible as you are in your own home, then you would keep the ants out as best as you can. The cleaners came right on time of checkout so they are very punctual. Overall would stay with this host and home again.

Classy Rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place was well-appointed. It was beachy without being cheesy-beachy. They thought of everything and, even though we didn't have to use them, had umbrellas at the door. Really fantastic for two couples. Tucked away in a private alley where we were close to everything without being too noisy. Our mid-size car rental fit perfectly and even had room for a four-person golf cart in front of it. Great place. Thank you!
