Great location- well maintained property

Great location great Key West charm

For us location is key and you could not have a better location, shopping and want to drop off stuff no problem, want to cool off from touring just stop in. Night out listening to music easy walk back, no Uber required. The place has that cottage Key West charm! Place won’t disappoint and property management is aces!

Cute, cozy and right off of Duval

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was just a couple blocks off of Duval St, which made getting around super easy and we didn’t need our vehicle. Parking is non-existent in the area without needing to pay outrageous amounts, however Ricky was awesome enough to offer to let us park at their office and would shuttle us to and from our vehicle/rental as needed. Loved the patio area, great area to sit and chill while enjoying a beverage in your own space. Nice and secluded.
