The Space:
Welcome to The Caroline Suite, a spacious one-bedroom retreat in The Bayview House, a restored 1928 Key West home in the heart of Old Town.

The separate living room includes a queen sleeper sofa for additional sleeping space. Flat-screen TVs in both the bedroom and living room make it easy to relax at the end of the day.
Caroline's kitchen is especially convenient for guests who want more than the basics during their stay. It features a full-size refrigerator, cooktop, microwave, toaster oven, toaster, coffee maker, sink, generous counter space and plenty of cabinetry. Whether you're making breakfast before heading out, reheating leftovers from a favorite Key West restaurant or preparing a casual meal, you'll have plenty of room to do it.
The updated bathroom features a spacious walk-in shower and modern fixtures.
Outside, settle into Caroline's porch seating area with your morning coffee or head to the shared pool for a swim.

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, wander 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, return to Bayview House for a swim or relax outside your suite.
The Caroline Suite is particularly well suited for guests who appreciate having a separate bedroom, a more functional kitchen and a little extra room to settle in while still being close to Key West's restaurants, nightlife, beaches and waterfront.
Whether you're planning a romantic getaway, a few days of Key West fun or a longer island escape, The Caroline Suite combines the character of a historic Key West home with the comfort and convenience of a true one-bedroom vacation rental.
Make yourself at home at The Caroline Suite and enjoy Key West at your own pace.

Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed having the pool — it’s one of our favorite features as well. The walkable location really does make it easy to experience all the best of Key West, and we’re happy you were able to take advantage of that. We’d love to host you again at The Caroline Suite anytime.
We enjoyed our stay at the Caroline suite. The kitchen and bathroom was nicely updated and having a separate kitchen/living/bedroom for this price was appreciated. We were within a nice walking distance of Duval street. After spending the day walking around Duval Street we enjoyed a relaxing late afternoon in the pool.

Thank you for your review! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay at The Caroline Suite. It's great to hear that you appreciated the updated kitchen and bathroom, as well as the extra space the separate living area provides. We love that guests can enjoy the best of both worlds — easy access to all the excitement of Duval Street and a relaxing retreat by the pool at the end of the day. Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Key West again soon!
We loved our stay. The condo is cute, quiet, and had everything we needed for our week stay. Highly recommend Mac's Place (a block away) and Fun Rentals. We got a golf cart for the week and saw most of the island. The hosts were very accommodating and responsive. Highly recommend!
Great stay. Owner stayed in communication and was available if we needed anything. Clean rooms. Nice pool. My only complaint was living room had no natural light but we weren’t there much anyway. Would definitely rent again.

Thank you for your review of The Caroline Suite! We're glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the clean accommodations, refreshing pool and responsive communication from our team. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the natural light in the living room. As part of a historic Key West property, the suite's layout reflects the character of the building, but we're happy to hear it didn't detract from your overall experience. Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we're thrilled to know you would rent with us again. We look forward to welcoming you back on a future visit to Key West!
This was an absolutely beautiful suite the perfect distance from the airport and Duval street. The suite was cozy, cool, clean, and quiet. There’s even a sharedPool to relax in as well as parking for a car or golf cart. Not to mention there’s a pretty fantastic restaurant 700ft away with live music every night. The hosts were super responsive and attentive. 10/10 would stay again and will recommend this to my friends and family.

Thank you for such a thoughtful and detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the Caroline Suite and found it comfortable, quiet, and well located — close to both the airport and Duval Street, yet still a relaxing retreat. It’s great that you were able to take advantage of the pool and convenient parking as well.
We’re also glad our team’s communication made a positive impression, and we truly appreciate your recommendation to friends and family — that means a lot to us.
We’d love to welcome you back to Bayview House anytime!
We had a wonderful stay in Key West! Karen pulled out all the stops to make sure that we enjoyed our time at Bayview House. We enjoyed have a pool available and sat on the porch in the sunshine every morning. The property is very convenient to downtown Key West, definitely walkable if you are a walker, but still great to have parking. Really appreciated our visit!

Thank you for your wonderful review and for choosing The Caroline Suite for your Key West stay!
We’re so glad to hear you had such an enjoyable visit — providing attentive, thoughtful service is something we truly value. It’s great to know you were able to take advantage of the pool and enjoy relaxing mornings on the porch — those are some of the best moments the property has to offer.
We also appreciate you highlighting the location. Being close to downtown while still offering the convenience of parking gives guests flexibility to explore however they prefer — whether on foot or by car.
Thank you again for your kind words. We’d love to welcome you back to Bayview House for another memorable stay in Key West!
Nice place! Very clean! Only issue was there are no mirrors except the bathroom mirror which is tough when several people are attempting to get ready (hair, make-up, fit check, etc.) Overall very nice!

Great communication with owner with prompt resolution of minor issue when our key card temporarily stopped working. Accommodations were perfect for our family of 4 and boys are already asking when they can go back.
Convenient location away from the craziness of Duval St. as long as you have a way to get around like rental bikes.Apartment could use some hooks around to hang towels & clothes. Also a box of Kleenex would make a nice add. There is a kcup coffe maker and someone had left coffee grounds & beans but there was no grinder or reusable kcup grounds holder so could not make coffee.Host was very responsive to any questions we had. We had a great 4 days in Key West.

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for choosing The Caroline Suite for your Key West stay. We’re so glad you enjoyed your time with us and that our team was responsive throughout your visit.
We also really appreciate your helpful suggestions. Adding more hooks for towels and clothing is a great idea. The note about tissues is well taken as well — small touches like that can make a meaningful difference.
Regarding the coffee setup, we apologize for the confusion. The suite is equipped with a K-cup machine, and we’ll make sure it’s correctly stocked so guests have everything they need to enjoy it without any guesswork.
Thanks again for your feedback — it helps us continue improving — and we’re so happy to hear you had a great four days in Key West. We’d love to host you again on your next visit!
This was our first stay in Key West. The location was the perfect distance to get to entertainment, the beach and other sites. The pool was great! We often started and ended our days there. We are excited to see the improvements Jenna has in store.
Great location, very cozy house with lots of character. Great shower and nice kitchen since we prefer to not eat out every meal while visiting. Gorgeous foliage around the pool area with a couple of resident iguanas. No need for a rental car if you rent bicycles. Everything is within an easy bike ride so you won't have to worry with parking a car which can be a pain down on Duval.

So happy you enjoyed your stay! We'd love to host you again! - Jenna Blackwell | BHHS Keys Real Estate & Vacation Rentals
Host was fine & responsive. The location was great close enough to walk to many beaches/ parks & duvall street. The apt was clean and met our needs. However it is missing many amenities that just seem to be common sense, such as there’s absolutely nowhere to hang up any clothing. There were no kitchen towels in the kitchen to wash dishes with, there were no coffee table or dining room table to be able to sit and eat any food at there’s nowhere to lay out suitcases, it is really very sparse and missing a lot of details that would just be expected.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the location and cleanliness of The Caroline Suite, and that our team was responsive during your stay.
We do want to clarify for future guests that there is a wardrobe in the bedroom with hanging space for clothing. That said, we understand that additional storage or more obvious placement can make a stay more comfortable, and we’ll take a closer look at how this is presented.
We also appreciate your comments regarding the kitchen setup and furnishings. While the suite is designed to be simple and efficient for shorter stays, your feedback is well taken, and we’re reviewing additions to enhance the overall experience.
Thank you again for your input, It helps us continue to improve.
Dirty outdoor area. Trash and cleaning supplies on the porch. Cleaners came made all of the furniture wet and unusable and left a ladder on the porch. No internet, tv network went out, couldn’t reach the host. No notebook or folder in the unit. Overall Bad!

Reply to vrbo reviewThank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience — this is not the standard we aim to provide.
We take your concerns seriously, particularly regarding the outdoor cleanliness, items left on the porch, and the disruption caused by the cleaning team. That should not have happened, and we are addressing this directly with our team to ensure it does not recur. We’re also reviewing our turnover and final inspection procedures to prevent anything being left behind or guest spaces being impacted.
We apologize as well for the internet and TV outage during your stay. While service interruptions can occasionally occur, we understand how frustrating that is — especially when paired with difficulty reaching us. We are currently reviewing our communication protocols to ensure guests can always reach us quickly when issues arise.
We regret that your stay fell short and appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. Your feedback is helping us improve, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide a much better experience in the future....
The host was super responsive to a few issues we had and the location of this rental is super ideal.I am rating this rental 3 out 5 stars since most of the furniture pictured was not actually in the rental when we arrived. We purposely chose this rental because they pictured a table (place to eat) and a large dresser (to store clothes). We ended up having to eat outside and we were not able to properly store our clothes for the week. The pool patio and pool itself was not cleaned and had debris everywhere. I hope the host fixes this!Thank you for the stay. We enjoyed every minute of it.
The property was great! Exactly what we needed! There was a small hiccup when we first got there, it appeared that the property hadn’t been cleaned. We contacted Jenna and immediately she had housekeeping there to take care of it! The property was perfect for us celebrating our 1 year anniversary in the keys. It’s far enough away from the busy streets that you could get rest, but not so far that you could walk or get a quick Uber ride for a few bucks! And it’s close to a local spot that was great to stop in for a few drinks and excellent food, Mac’s Place! Would def stay here again and the host deserves an A++! Always quick to respond and very helpful! Can’t say enough good things about it!
We loved the intimate setting. And how close the rental was to everything yet it felt VERY private and secluded. The owners were extremely accommodating whenever we had any questions or concerns. The owner's were extremely helpful and generous when we needed items that we had forgotten. Great hospitality is hard to find these days, but we felt right at home. The overall cleanliness was great. For an older, historic property, we were impressed by the modern improvements and accomodations. For the price, we feel like we scored big! Traveling during the peak season we found this, rental, to not only be affordable but impressive. This rental exceeded our expectations....and, honestly, the pics don't do this rental justice. As a Marriott employee of 10 years this rental was a perfect 10 out of 10... All across the board.
