This is the perfect place for a 3 day trip to Key West. Very cute in a quiet neighborhood. You do have to walk a little to Duval Street which was fine for us.

Stayed here with my 12 year old son and had a great Memorial Day Weekend in Key West! The place is quaint but very tidy and convenient / central to all parts of the island. Just as advertised, and communication with owner was great. We had a blast!

Just right for us!
First of the property is very nice and had everything you could need for a stay in key west. Its about a 15m walk from DuVal which is just far enough away from the nightlife. The host was communicative and we had absolutely no issues. Awesome stay!

Great location and nice place to stay
We spent a week in Key West at this nice little main floor one bedroom suite. The location is great, and walkable to anywhere you might want to go in Key West. Parking was pretty easy...always found a spot within a 1/2 block. The area is safe and quiet, but really easy to get to all the great sites and the beaches. If you are considering a trip to Key West, Marilyn's place is a great place to stay. Thank you, Marilyn for having us!

Holiday Relaxation
This was our 3rd stay at this location. We adore the amenities, proximity to attractions, beach, and nearby Cuban coffee. The property owner is very committed to her guests feeling welcome and makes you feel she’s happy you’re staying in her home. It’s perfect for a couple looking to get away and relax.

Great Place - Great Location
In town for Fantasy Fest. The location was a convenient scooter ride to Duval St. Super easy to navigate around town. The residence had everything we needed - and worked well for us. The property manager was easy to reach and work with to help with a couple minor requests. We would definitely stay there again.

The cutest little beach house! The perfect getaway in Key West. It was very clean and perfect for two people! My only wish is that they would get new towels and new sheets because they were both stained. Overall, I would definitely stay there again!! 😊

Quiet street, perfect property for 2 people. Sandy's is around the corner for great Cuban coffee and take out, or 15 min. walk to restaurants, otherwise if you're not a walker, rent bikes or a golf cart.

This property sits in the perfect spot for all that you desire to do. You’re only a shorty walk to the beaches, local Cuban sandwich shops, Duval St or the marina areas. The place meets every need and is perfect for a couple to experience all that Key West offers. It’s a wonderful place and the owner is a gracious host and very responsive.

Great little apartment near the heart of Key West
Our stay was quiet, fun and comfortable. We were in walking distance to most of the attractions of downtown Key West and, if not, it was a short Lyft/Uber to everything else. We found parking for our rental car right around the corner for the duration of our stay. The only thing we would've loved is access to a couple beach chairs to bring with us to the nearby beaches.

The mattress in the bedroom needs to be replaced. You can't really sit on the futon. Need another chair. Very clean and the front porch was a great place to sit and enjoy your morning coffee.
