Awesome location, great place!

This townhouse is located close to everything you could need and want in Key West! It’s very clean, nicely furnished, and well-appointed. Beds are comfy. Keyless entry would be a plus, but despite having to go to the rental office, the process was quick and easy. Highly recommend!

Key West Adventure

This was our first visit to Key West and our stay at The Caribbean Alternative was awesome. The condo itself is extremely nice with access to a very relaxing community pool as well. The location in the Truman Annex was perfect for walking to everywhere in the Old Town from the sunset celebration at Mallory Square to Ernest Hemingway House and the Lighthouse. Easy walks to a number of great restaurants as well. And the informational summary of restaurants, events, places to visit, water sports, etc etc was very helpful. Overall tremendous experience and we'll be back.

Perfect location! Great comfy home!

Fabulous location - we walked everywhere no problem. Nice and quiet but not too remote. Highly recommend! Note: don’t buy grill food, photos show grill but there wasn’t one.

Nice first floor

The first floor of this townhouse is spacious and comfortable and well represented in the photos. The upstairs bedrooms are very small. The twin bedroom is as shown in the photos. The queen bedroom is not as represented. Structural modifications have been made and it is much smaller than shown. The bathroom is tiny and does not have a door but rather a bifold closet type screen and an undersized toilet. The worst feature of both bathrooms is the showers which are literally 25“ by 26”, way too small for even the smallest of the adults in our group.
