Great Location!

A little difficult to figure out how to find your rental and parking. The space was beautiful and clean, things were tight but definitely works. I had to call a couple of times for various questions and the staff was very quick, friendly, and responsive. The location was perfect!

Annual Key West Trip

My husband and I try to visit Key West every year in Nov. or Dec. We have wanted to stay in the Truman Annex area for soetime. This listing was perfect. It has everything you need. All the conveniences of home. The location is great. Close to the activity but very quiet. It was very clean and check-in was a breeze. It is a small property that accommodates 4 adults. There were only two of us but it may be cramped with 4. We used one bedroom to keep our luggage in. We would definitely stay here again. We did not use the pool so I cannot comment on that.

Nice unit in great location, on great grounds

Enjoy the Shipyard units and area. This unit is a nice, clean and updated unit with a very nice back deck area - the ground floor units are smaller to make way for the staircase to the second floor unit, but the deck out the back more than makes up for it. We felt it was perfect for our family for four.

Family Time

The location was fabulous!!! We drove down from the Everglades, parked the car and never used it again until we left for airport. The property is so convenient- close to restaurants, beach, coffee shops, Hemingway House and more!!! The property managers were very helpful and great to work with. We are ready to return for another visit soon.

Perfect location in paradise

This holiday was to celebrate our 30th Wedding Anniversary as 30 years ago we came to Key West as part of our honeymoon and thought it would be a great idea to re-visit. And we had no regrets... From the moment we turned into the street, to parking our car in the secure car park and then accessing the property, we knew we had chosen an absolutely perfect place to call 'home' from which to enjoy our week in Key West. Beautifully decorated and maintained inside and out. All the amenities you would need. Perfect. We had a slight issue with the front door lock. However, a call into the property management office, and within a short space of time one of the maintenance team arrived, worked on the lock and resolved our issue. Top marks and our huge thanks for the response and commitment. We were so happy with everything: the decor, the property, the location. Perfect. Our grateful thanks to the owners for such a fantastic place to stay. We will be back!

Small Condo

This condo is cute, but very small for a 2 bedroom. I ended up being glad our friends didn't join us. There wouldn't have been enough room for 4 adults. The bathrooms are very small. There is nowhere to store closing - closets were jammed with extra bedding, and no dresser drawers. We had to lay all our things on the spare bed, and live out of the suitcases for a week. The bathroom is very hard to get ready in. Small mirror right next to the wall, so you can't see your entire face to do make up, or head to do hair without standing up against the wall. The room smelled a bit musty too. Very cutely decorated, but we will definitely need something larger next time. Thanks!

The condo is absolutely beautiful. Exactly like the pictures. The neighborhood is quiet and calm and when you want the crazy nightlife, it's just 2 blocks away.

Rent Key West - Thank You!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I just wanted to send a big Thank You to the Rent Key West Florida staff. When we arrived at this rental, we noticed it very warm inside. After a couple of calls to the 24/7 on call maintenance person (who did nothing for us by the way) we had to wait for the following day to get someone from Rent Key West to help us. It was determined the air conditioner unit was shot and they offered two different places to stay. We moved the following afternoon, with help from the staff, and enjoyed the rest of our vacation at a different location. Thank you John, Jann and Kyle for all your help in making the rest of our trip memorable. You truly work hard to make sure your clients are satisfied.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. 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 do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We arrived very late due to horrible traffic. WE could not get into the parking lot because I did not have the code to get in.I called the emergency number and was treated rudely on the phone and was told I had trouble following simple instructions. I was beyond angry. The first night was fine but the next two days were terrible cause the air went out and it was unbearable to say the least. I complained and was told she would inform the manager but of course nobody called me. The place was very nice and a good location but I felt they could of let us stay an extra day for the inconvenience we suffered.

The location was central and it was possible to walk just about anywhere if you don't mind walking. We did keep a car this time and it was nice having an assigned space in this area of town. The Truman Annex is a beautiful and well-maintained area of Old Town to stay.

Shipyard Truman Annex Stay Dec 2014

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was nice but the place was smaller than we invisioned from the pictures of the home. Great location close to all the main attractions easy walking distance to most. With the place being so small a bit less furniture and other decortive items around would have been helpful I think. Just a suggestion. Our Internet access was not working but the management people had it fixed the same day we advised them of the issue.
