Mojitoville: 3 bedroom pet-friendly, Old Town, Private Pool, Historic Seaport
Mojitoville is perfect for the discriminating guest who wants to enjoy close proximity to Key West's Historic Seaport with its fine fishing, restaurants and activities and also to Duval Street.
The perfect location, 1 block to the Eaton Street Seafood Market and Old Town Bakery or 2 blocks to the Conch Republic Seafood Company, Cole's Peace Artisan Breads, Half-Shell Raw Bar, the Boathouse Restaurant, Schooner Wharf Bar and a stroll around the Seaport or just 4 blocks to Duval Street, completely renovated Mojitoville will amaze you with the detailing (beautifully refinished original wooden floors and Dade County pine walls), decorating and attention to detail! On the Historic Register and also sporting an Old Island Restoration Foundation designation, sit on the front porch and watch the world go by or enjoy the totally private landscaped rear deck, heated pool and gas BBQ grill!
The historic cottage features two bedrooms, one with king pillow top bed, 42' wall flat screen TV the other with queen pillow top bed, 42' flat screen TV. Also, the wonderful loft has two twin beds and a private sitting area for relaxing. *We find that the size and layout of the house is best suited for 2 to 4 adults, or 2 to 4 adults + 2 children (that can use the spiral staircase to the loft; there is not a bathroom in the loft).
The master king bedroom features an ensuite bath with shower and hair dryer, the second bath off the hallway and close to the circular stairs to the loft includes a tub/shower, hair dryer and W/D.
The great room at the rear of the cottage has a vaulted ceiling and double French doors across the wall that open to a private deck surrounded for privacy with fencing and tropical foliage, heated pool with table and chairs. The great room consists of a living room and kitchen. The living room features a 32' Phillips flat screen (which is adjustable for sweeping movement and viewing), and comfortable, intimate seating.
The elegant and fully equipped kitchen has a dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator, stove, garbage disposal, glass top stove, stainless steel appliances, quartz counter tops and everything you could desire to prepare a gourmet feast! There is a high pub/dining table in the kitchen area that seats four, as well as a table with 6 dining chairs just through the French doors on the deck.
Since Hurricane Irma (2017) we have: replaced all rear area fencing and most rear area plantings; had the pool refinished; replaced the pool filter; had new composite decking installed and repaired the air conditioning. We have also installed a new Bosch refrigerator/freezer, a new dishwasher, new ADA height toilets and a new on demand hot water heater. The living area has a new sofa and leatherette chair and all mattresses were replaced recently.
Please note that we do not rent by the night, only longer term, minimum 28 nights.

This is an awesome Key West Cottage in an idealLocation close to everything. The house is pet friendly (it even had a basket of dog toys!) and was very clean when we checked in. A fully stocked kitchen and a nice outdoor dining area by the pool for morning coffee or evening dinner. Loved the front porch for just watching the fun of Key West visitors. We loved every minute of our stay and were sad to go.

Thank you so much for the lovely comments - we are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Mojitoville and loved the front porch and location just as much as we do! We hope you'll join us again for a stay in Key West!
Quintessential Key West HomeEverything you need in a Key West home, just blocks away from the Seaport and far enough from Duval to feel away, but close enough to get anywhere. So many great restaurants within a few blocks. The decor in the house is just Key West perfection.
We absolutely loved this place!
Cute, clean, close to everything!
We would definitely stay here again.

Dear Debbie, thank you for your review. I'm so glad you enjoyed Mojitoville as much as we do. We'd love to have you visit again in the future! Enjoy the holidays, and we look forward to hearing from you again.
Sincerely, Susan
We enjoyed the location - just two blocks to the Harbor and walking distance from pretty much everything in Key West. We enjoyed our walks with the dogs around the harbor in the mornings and evenings. The house had everything we needed and was quite comfortable. The back yard was lovely to hang out in, mostly shaded, and the fence was secure for our dogs.
We really enjoyed our time at mojitaville. Excellent location to get to everything. We used bikes or walked almost everywhere. Very cute conch house. We had everything we needed and enjoyed our time there!
This was our second stay at Mojotoville and it won't be the last.

Great Time at Mojitoville in Key West!
We loved this cute house in Key West! Just a few short blocks to everything you need. We walked to the Historic Seaport every day with great shops, restaurants, and boats to get on for fishing, snorkeling, sailing... The owners and the property manager were great! Can't wait to go back! AAAA+++

The house was an estically pleasing combination of Key West flare and art.
The owners were extremely gracious to our group of four adults. The location of the house is minutes away from the hub bub of downtown Key West! It also provided a respite in the backyard with a pool. We found the street to be very busy but we did enjoy the location and proximity to the waterfront! Tom and Susan were wonderful hosts for this charming house.

Lovely Key West property....
Location, location, location. This property was extreme well located for our month in Key West. We didn’t have a car (you don’t need or want one because the parking is extremely challenging) and the key is great for its walkability. The house is charming and the back patio with pool is quite lovely. We hope to return sometime in the future.

Thanks for The nice words. We love the location for the same reasons. And it was nice meeting and talking all of you. Keep us in mind for the future.
Mojitoville checks the box on the majority of all things. Cute house! Location great!
Adorable house. Owners meet the needs of guests with beach towels, washing machine, kitchen appliances, grill, air conditioning, fans, blankets, etc. House was clean and well maintained, comfortable beds. Needed pool heat turned up - immediate response from owner. We had a fabulous time!

Great house in a Great location!
I recently stayed at Mojitoville for just over a month. The house is very comfortable and the location can't be beat! I spend a lot of time in Key West and have stayed in many long term vacation rentals all over Old Town and this was by far my favorite! I loved the proximity to Eaton St. Seafood Market and the Mojitoville kitchen and outdoor gas grill had everything I needed to cook up some fresh seafood!
The entire house was well decorated and stocked with everything I needed. There are also many helpful labels and notes explaining where things are and how to control lights, ceiling fans, TV's, etc.
I look forward to staying at Mojitoville again!

Thanks for your gracious words, Tom. Like you, we love the location. We find it interesting that we are getting so many rentals from couples and singles even though there is room for 6 in the house. I guess that the location is our best selling point.
Again, thanks. I hope that we cross paths once again at Shots and Giggles. I'll buy you a shot and we'll try to make you giggle!

Wonderful Vacation
Just wanted to say the we really enjoyed our stay at "Mojitoville!" Our family went for Thanksgiving Week and everyone had a great time. The house is in a great location. We brought our bikes and were able to ride them everywhere and had a convenient place to lock them up. Our friends came and joined us for the last half of the week. There was plenty of room for everyone ( 6 of us total ). The house has all the essentials. The outside deck and pool was nice. We spent every night outside playing games on the fabulous large table. We would definitely recommend this house!!!!!!!

Adorable conch house in PERFECT location!
We stayed at Mojitoville with family (5 of us) and it was the perfect house - so well appointed, wonderful decor, awesome front porch and back patio WITH A DIPPING POOL (!!!!), and the location could not have been better. The house is situated close to both Duval St. and the Bight (Waterfront) area - everything is walk-able from Mojitoville. You are just a few short blocks from the heart of Duval or a few blocks from all that the waterfront area has to offer. Two of the best places to get breakfast and lunch are a stone's throw - Old Town Bakery and Paseo. Plus, Eaton Bikes is right next door which makes it so easy to rent a bike and explore the island. We have stayed many places in Key West but Mojitoville is our very favorite!

Thanks for the knowledgeable review, Casey. It is obvious that you know the town and have visited there often. Have a great visit in March with Mike and the pups! The new dog gate for the porch is ready and waiting for you. Well, ready for the dogs, not you.....
Great property in a great location. Close to Duval, Simonton Beach, the historic waterfront, which is my favorite place to walk the pup in the morning, and convenient to some excellent neighborhood restaurants. Walked everywhere, never even used an Uber. Very clean. Great communication. Yes, it’s on a busy road so you may hear the traffic but I use a sound machine to sleep so wasn’t disturbed by it at all. Free street parking can be found within a block or two of the property so no issues there. Looking forward to coming back!

Nice house, good location
Mojitoville is a very nice house, everything is as described or better!
a porch in front of the house, a big bedroom with a queen bed facing the street, a living room with kitchen facing the back and a nice bedroom with a King bed and ensuite-bathroom with shower in the middle.
2 twins + a sofa on the mezzanine. Another bathroom at the bottom of the spiral staircase.
TV in all rooms
House is very well decorated, and everything you need is in there.
Very enjoyable deck with big table, small pool, BBQ, outdoor shower,..
There is a nice big tree so its always easy to find shade.
The location is great; the house is in the historic district, close to everything.
Owners are responsive and very nice to deal with

Thank you Isabelle and Thomas. We are glad that you enjoyed your time in Mojitoville and are pleased that you chose to spend your vacation time with us. We were there right after you for a few days!
We rented this house for the month of May 2021. It could not have been more perfect. The location is ideal, walking or biking distance to all the fabulous Key West restaurants and famous Duval street. The house itself is charming, it is meticulously clean and well stocked. The check-in process couldn’t have been easier. Even the little things were thought of, for instance, the owners leave business cards out from nearby restaurants that give you a free mimosa or a percentage off the bill. There is also a notebook that contains menus of restaurants and really interesting information on the history of Key West. The parking was no problem, we found a spot close to the house and stayed there all month. The pool was very enjoyable. If you get a chance to rent this house, do it! It will be the best vacation you ever had as it was for us.

Delightful month at Mojitoville
Mojitoville was a delightful choice for my month in Key West. The conch house was a perfect blend of Old Town Key West charm and modern conveniences. The owners and caretaker were highly responsive, helping me connect my Roku to the wireless internet and replacing an outdoor grill that had seen better days. The back garden is an oasis. The furnishings were comfortable and the attractive kitchen well-equipped. A multitude of restaurants, both on Duvall St and the quieter eastern part of Old Town where Mojito is located, were an easy walk. My two small dogs were entranced by the roosters that greeted us on our daily walks. There is occasional noise from Eaton Street, from tour buses and motorcycles, heard mostly from the front bedroom. And the design of a conch house means footsteps in the loft can be heard in the bedrooms beneath it. I worked remotely from Mojitoville during my stay and found the wireless and cell reception quite reliable. Because indoor table space is limited, I bought a small folding table for my desk, and the setup was perfect. I am counting the months until my next visit.

Mojitoville - An exceptional Key West getaway
I just concluded my second stay at Mojitoville and am returning for two months in 2017. The cottage is as charming as its photos suggest. The beds are comfy, the kitchen well-stocked, and the landscaping lush. Without a doubt, my favorite feature is the private back deck and heated dipping pool. The home is located far enough from the bars on Duval Street that you don't have the noise from the commercial area but close enough to walk to dinner. In fact, many delightful restaurants, such as Azur, Michael's, and Mangia Mangia, as well as the wonderful Fausto's grocery market are an easy walk, nestled in the quiet residential neighborhood with lovely, old, authentic homes like Mojitoville. My small dogs and I were regulars at Harpoon Harry's, where they were welcome on the patio, and breakfast is served all day. You can also pick up seafood at the market across the street and grill it on the deck, for those times you feel like staying in. The beautiful outdoor table seats six comfortably, and the outdoor lighting makes it a charming location for a dinner party. This year I discovered the delights of sitting on the front porch and enjoying the pedestrian scene. Mojitoville's local caretaker is responsive, and the owners clearly care about you having a good experience.

Thank you so much for this nice review, Jean. We are pleased that everything was comfortable for you and that your working vacation was so nice that you are returning next year for two months. On a side note - we, too, love sitting on the front porch and watching the world go by. And we're glad that the new property manager and cleaner was good for you. We miss Clyde, but we are pleased to have her on board with us.
Again, thank you.
