This was a really great place for convenience of walking to the tourist areas. Has the Key West vacation vibe...The staff were wonderful...the breakfast options were very good. The rooms are cozy (small) but clean and accommodating. The only downfall to our room was that it was right next to breakfast area and we could hear the people talking at 6am...and the Rooster outside of the Caribbean house crowed non stop from 4am to sunrise!! I just got used to him...part of the Key West experience. All in all, I would definitely recommend this house to others.

We found the location to be extremely convenient! Most things were within an easy 20-minute walk, and there are many options for dining nearby (including Blue Heaven, which is across the street). The staff was friendly and helpful, and breakfast was really nice! We stayed in the Cuba room. It was tidy and nicely appointed, but it is cozy. There’s not much space, but it would be ideal for a solo traveler. My husband and I aren’t large people, but even we were tripping over each other at times. There’s a lovely outdoor space with plenty of seating. If you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs! The island roosters are early risers. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

Mattress and pillows needed replaced! Same sheets all week. You could hear luggage being rolled across floor constantly because you had to store it under bed. Cleaning crew did a good job with sanitation. Office crew were extremely helpful.

Our stay in the Cuba room was lovely for a first time Key West visit. The location is great, very near the iconic Blue Heaven and tucked away in a great neighborhood. The room was very nice but know that it is very small. It’s great there is parking but ask about destination fees that add up. All in all, we had a great experience here!

Nice room

It was nice for 1 night. Walking distance to Duval Street and other fun areas. The room was pretty much just a bed and small bathroom. But was nice for just the night.

Check-in was easy & quick and the directions that were sent over text message were perfect. The room is small and the bathroom, even smaller, but worked for us just fine. The room was very clean, the bed comfortable, and we loved that drinks & coffee were made available 24/7. It was nice to have a little something to choose from for breakfast as well. The staff were polite, kind, and friendly, as well as helpful. I would definitely stay here again as it is convenient and walkable to all of Key West. It is half a block from Blue Heaven and two blocks from Duvall Street, as well as a 10 minute walk to Mallory Square for the sunset celebration. I definitely recommend staying here!
