Close by and everything we needed!

Loved my stay! The pool was amazing. Two washers and dryers. The floors are separated which is nice if you have people that want to stay a little bit out of all the action. The location was close by to everything. Concierge service was very responsive and helpful. We had groceries put in the house upon arrival.

Great Home for a Group of Friends

This home is perfect for a large group of friends. There were 11 of us old college buddies for a 4 night stay. It was large enough for separate beds for all. The pool and BBQ grill in the backyard made for good food and fun with friends 8n a relaxed setting. And the location is fantastic for visiting all bars, restaurants and a grocery store. We highly recommend this home. We’ll definitely be back!

Quick trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is great. Had more than enough room for our large group of 11 adults. The location is fantastic, it's only a short walk to Duval Street and lots of other great restaurants and bars. The property manager is great. I got a quick response from her no matter what time I texted or emailed with a question. The only draw back is they have a disgruntled neighbor that likes to make noise complaints. He literally called to complain the second quiet hours started. Other than worrying about being too loud outside in the pool area we had a great stay. The property is great all around. Exactly as advertised. Hopefully we'll be able to all go there again soon.

Perfect in every way!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our Refuge Inn staff of 14, from Chincoteague Island, Va, stayed here for our business' 50th anniversary. It was immaculate, well maintained and spacious. They loved the outside eating/gathering space by the pool, which was shaded with a large table and comfortable chairs, lending itself to a magnificent place for lively conversation and outdoor meals. We kept the noise down to respect the neighbors. We get it! We only saw one of the neighbors and he was really nice. Most days, we found a non reserved parking place on the street for our Jeep SUV directly in front of the house and used the space next to the house for our six person golf cart but it is large enough for a minivan. The house managers were very nice and respond very quickly to any call, text or email. The house is set up so that each level can be rented separately but not sure if it is. The location is central to the Old Downtown so you really do not need a car. WE will return and hopefully have enough folks to rent this house.

Amazing Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second time to stay at Stars & Stripes. Love the location - walking distance to all the Key West spots but on a quiet street. The house is amazing - very spacious and clean. The walk-through room on the first floor was a little odd but every room has its own outside door and it wasn’t really a big deal. Property manager and concierge were so nice and helpful. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The grandparents climbed to their cozy third floor for some peace and quiet. The location is quiet yet central. Parking for our golf cart was handy. Very clean and a great staff too👍

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Close to everything! Great location. After reading some reviews about noise, I was a little concerned. We didn’t have any issues. We were a group of 12 and really enjoyed our stay. It was clean and well-maintained. One of the coffee pots broke and it was replaced right away. Definitely would stay here again.

Wouldn't Stay Again

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Despite its great location and size, we cannot recommend staying at this house due to issues with the property manager and the condition of certain areas. There are numerous other rentals in Key West that offer better experiences at a similar price point. When the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, it becomes clear that this is not a property worth revisiting.Pros:-Excellent location-Spacious home accommodating around 15-16 people comfortably (contrary to the advertised 20)-Nice, albeit small, pool-Early check-in allowed-Private feel despite the presence of other guestsCons:-Lack of transparency regarding the undisclosed property manager noise ordinance and the installation of a "NOISE DECIBEL METER" in the yard, leading to constant worries about noise levels throughout the vacation-Receiving a text message upon arrival emphasizing strict pool rules, the involvement of the police, and the potential termination of the contract, creating unnecessary anxiety from the start-One of the first-floor bathrooms is in a deplorable state, with the shower and floor tiles falling apart, making it unsuitable for shared use and resembling a cheap motel-Unusual layout on the first floor, with three bedrooms interconnected by doors, including the problematic bathroom, compromising privacy and convenience-Severe termite problem in the second-floor kitchen, resulting in significant accumulations of sawdust that needed to be swept up everyday-Difficulty opening the main door leading to the pool, requiring physical force and assistance each time, making it impractical for women and childrenRegrettably, these issues significantly detracted from our vacation experience, and we advise exploring other options to ensure a more enjoyable stay in Key West.

Would definitely stay here again!!!! Don't miss this property.

Birthday Squad Weekend

I booked this house to accommodate myself and 15 friends. We were celebrating my 60th birthday. My first girls trip. There are not enough words to express what a wonderful time we had. The location and layout of this house was perfect. We all enjoyed the pool and the coffee bar around the corner. We quickly learned our way around and everything was so close. We all want to go back. The property manager was great. Shana was always available to answer questions and provide assistance. We had an issue with the washing machine not filling and she had somewhere there quickly. I highly recommend this house and hope to go back again.

Great location.

This house was able to accommodate my large group, location was great - close enough to Duval Street but also far enough to have some quiet time. Only suggestions we have were to supply some beach chairs for the beach, and also some cushions for the kitchen chairs. There also should be more parking spaces available for the guests. Shana, the property manager, and the staff at Concierge were great!!
