Perfect location!

Property is in the perfect location to walk everywhere in old town. One street off Duval and very close to Sunset Pier. The house is charming and was perfect for the two of us. Very clean and has every amenity that we needed. Host is very attentive to detail and was always easy to communicate with. I highly recommend!

Great Stay

We very much enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Everything you need for a comfortable stay and a location that can't be beat. Also, the off-street parking was a time, money, and sanity saver. Thanks to Marcela and family!

Perfect spot right in the middle of everything

This cottage is great. Its an old school cottage, so dont expect a new hotel room. The wood walls have miles on them, but everything its freshly painted and very clean. The furniture is comfortable, the bedrooms are good size and also perfect after a long day and night out. You can go across the street to Truman for a nice peaceful walk or go one block over for the music and fun. If you love Hanks and the Caroline area, you will not find a better location. We will definitely stay here when we come back.

Cute property with great location

Cute little cottage perfect for my wife and I. Location is ideal for those who want to be in the heart of old town , only a block from Duval and within a stone’s throw of several great places to get drinks or food. The home is older , but was clean and comfortable. We had to reach out to the owners for two small issues which were addressed very quickly.

Simply the Best!

We have stayed in this perfect little home for 3 years now. We absolutely love the comfort and cleanliness our hosts provide to make our stay in Key West most enjoyable. We love the location. We can easily walk to downtown and to the Pier as well as to many restaurants. Definitely the best of the best in every way!

Great location

You can walk all over Old Town from this location. Also the off street parking is great if you have a car…parking is difficult and costly. No need for a car. Host was available at all times.

Fantasy fest

The location was fantastic, but there was construction next-door and they broke the water supply line. Fiona had a plumber there within an hour and it was fixed within three they even gave me back $200 off my stay

About the host

Hosted by Marcela Morgan

Hi I'm Marcela. I help my parents with the admin work of running their vacation rental. My father is a former Magistrate of the Florida Keys (1980-2006). He is a well-known attorney and 3rd Generation Key West Conch. He raised his family in his hometown of Key West and the family still remains in Key West. My mom manages the property with me and is from Nicaragua. They both speak Spanish fluently. The law office is adjacent to this property and he works there every day. My parents live down the road from this property near the Southernmost Point. So they are very close by if you need anything.

Why they chose this property

You can't beat the location. A private safe parking spot, away from the street. This is more private than the Shipyard condos, in which you are close to your neighbor and the parking spaces are smaller.

What makes this property unique

Being able to walk to almost any restaurant in the downtown area. You don't need to Uber or call a taxi. You get to walk home under the moon and stars in perfect-year-around weather, and enjoy every moment of staying downtown.
