About this property

The Margaret Suite

Summary:

Stay in the heart of Old Town at The Margaret Suite, a bright studio in historic Bayview House. Ideal for couples and sleeping up to 3, Margaret’s standout feature is its back door opening directly to the shared pool and grill area. Enjoy a comfortable queen bed, kitchenette and easy access to Key West’s best attractions, with Duval Street less than a mile away.



The Space:

Welcome to The Margaret Suite, a bright and inviting studio retreat in The Bayview House, a restored 1928 Key West home in the heart of Old Town. With vaulted ceilings, a comfortable open layout and a back door that opens directly to the shared pool area, Margaret makes it easy to settle into island life.



The Margaret Suite is ideal for couples or solo travelers and can accommodate up to three guests. The open-concept studio features a queen bed with bedside lighting, along with a convertible twin-size futon-style sofa for an additional guest. Vaulted ceilings and soft coastal finishes give the space a light, airy feel, while a comfortable seating area and flat-screen TV provide a place to unwind after a day exploring Key West.



The bathroom features a walk-in glass shower, contemporary vanity and modern fixtures.



The compact kitchenette is well equipped for vacation essentials, with a refrigerator, cooktop, microwave, coffee maker, sink and basic kitchenware — perfect for morning coffee, breakfast or preparing a simple meal or snack.



One of Margaret's best features is its direct access to the pool area. Open the back door and you're just steps from the shared swimming pool, making it easy to take a quick dip, relax outside or use the shared grill. Guests also have access to shared on-site laundry, Wi-Fi and air conditioning.



Amenities include:



* Back door opening directly to the shared pool area

* Shared swimming pool

* Shared grill in the pool area

* Shared on-site laundry

* Air conditioning and Wi-Fi

* Flat-screen TV

* Two first-come, first-served off-street parking spaces shared among the four Bayview House suites, with street parking also available



Explore Key West



One of the best things about staying at Bayview House is the location. You'll be close enough to explore much of Key West on foot or by bike while staying outside the busiest part of the Duval Street corridor.



* Duval Street: approximately 0.8 mile

* Higgs Beach: approximately 1 mile

* Key West Historic Seaport: approximately 1.2 miles

* Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park & Beach: approximately 1.5 miles



Spend the morning at the beach, explore the historic streets of Old Town, head to the Historic Seaport for waterfront dining or a boating excursion, then make your way to Duval Street for dinner, drinks and entertainment. When you're ready for a break from the action, head back to Margaret, open the back door and you're right at the pool.



The Margaret Suite is particularly well suited for guests who want to be close to Key West's restaurants, nightlife, beaches and waterfront without staying directly in the middle of the Duval Street action.



Whether you're planning a romantic getaway, a few days of Key West fun or a longer island escape, The Margaret Suite combines the character of a historic Key West property with modern comfort and exceptionally convenient access to the pool.



Make yourself at home at The Margaret Suite and enjoy Key West at your own pace.

This was our first time to Key West and we loved every minute of it! The location of this rental was great for us as we were away from the crowds but close enough to bike everywhere. Hosts and unit were great. Looking forward to our next visit.
