About this house rental
** Chavez House is available for 28 night minimum for the month of August ONLY. Live like a local!
THE PROPERTY: By bringing the outdoors in, this home allows you to live like a true Floridian. The fenced yard provides you with privacy to enjoy your pool. Sun yourself on the lounge chairs or dine under the stars. And if that isn’t enough, you can enjoy life on the lanai. Read a book, take a nap, or keep an eye on the kiddos while they splash in the pool. Comfortable furnishings and a vaulted ceiling with tropical fan, make this a great outdoor gathering spot for family and friends.
As you enter the home’s first floor, you will find hardwood floors, the family room, dining room, kitchen, primary bedroom, and bath. Your king bedroom is to the left of the entry’s staircase. It is beautifully furnished, includes nightstands and bedside lamps as well as Dade County pine wall accents. A TV, ceiling fan and large dresser provide all the comforts of home. Its distinctive bath design allows you to open it to the kitchen or close it to use as your private ensuite. It includes a large vanity with dual sinks, a tub/shower combination and is adjoined to the pedestal sink room. The family room is to the right of the entry and leads back to the dining room and kitchen. The room is flooded with natural light, has plenty of seating for the family, a TV, and stunning wall art. Heading back towards the fabulous dining room, you will find seating for six and a sideboard for storage. From the DR you may access the lanai as well as the kitchen. Stainless steel appliances, white quartz countertops and a vaulted, shiplap-style ceiling add to the volume of this space. French doors lead to the pool and outdoor dining area. The convenient kitchen breakfast bar with seating for four, doubles as an island and includes a pass-through window to the lanai. It’s as easy as can be to prepare meals or snacks and enjoy them outdoors, Key West style!
Ascend the beautiful wrap around staircase to the second-floor queen bedrooms and bath. The first bedroom is bright and cheery. The barn door closet and vaulted ceiling will charm you. Nightstands with bedside lamps, a wall TV, ceiling fan and dresser round out this room. The second queen bedroom is also bright and cheery and includes nightstands, bedside lamps, and a TV. Store your things in the louver door closet or open shelf dresser. Work or school from home in this room with a desk and task lighting. Your stay in this historic home will leave you with lasting memories of life in Old Town, Key West.
BED CONFIGURATION: The first floor includes a primary king bedroom and large hall bath with dual sinks and tub/shower combination. The second-floor queen bedrooms share a hall bathroom with vanity sink and tub/shower combination.
OUTDOOR AMENITIES: The pool with waterfall feature is heated seasonally (November through April) for an additional fee which will be assessed at the time of booking. Decking and lush landscaping surround the pool area where you can sunbathe, grill your dinner or lounge under the lanai.
PARKING: No designated parking. Free street parking in the neighborhood. Note: Do NOT park in parking spaces marked as RESIDENTIAL or PERMIT ONLY.
LOCATION: Old Town north of Truman Ave. Many attractions, historic homes, restaurants, and shops are nearby. From here you can walk to the lure of Duval Street, read humorous epitaphs at the intriguing KW cemetery, and enjoy the Historic Seaport district.

Overall great stay at the Chavez house. My college age kids loved it too.
House: Clean and has everything you need. Comes with a few supplies for washer/dishwasher and paper products. Water stayed hot even with my teenager+ kids. Layout is really nice.
Pool: It's a plunge pool. Nicely heated so comfortable in January. Small, but everyone loved it. The pool area is very well protected. It you want to tan you may not get a ton of sun on the deck, but we like to enjoy the pool without baking. The deck area has loungers and a great outside family table which was perfect for morning coffee and some tasty bakery goods from the healthy shop *and another not so healthy right down the street.
Location: Ideal. We could walk to Duval, Mallory Park, shopping and restaurants. 5 - 8 blocks to the action, but many great restaurants are closer...like on the corner!
Cars & Carts: We rented a golf cart and loved being able to transport the beach chairs to Fort Zachary Beach. Yes, parking is not great right in front of the house, as it is marked for residential, but just a short block East on Margaret there was always a spot, so truly not a problem for us. Kinda wish we had rented bikes because I think riding around the quaint streets we would have found even more Key West nooks and crannies.
Food: Light groceries are just down the street. We did a pie crawl (our own invention) to all the key lime spots....
Overall: Great house. Great stay. Clean, Fresh and Friendly.

Wow, what a great rental in paradise. All previous reviews are spot on, great rental with no surprises. All the standard stuff you expect to be great is. Plus some personal peeves I have with older properties were non-existent. For example, all sink drains...drained. The propane grill had propane and was cared for and set up for proper use. The ignitor worked. The pool was indeed properly heated. Our air temp during the day was low to mid 70's...the pool was 94 --- so, so comfy. Plenty of pool towels, Ice machine worked great. On street parting was no problem, two great restaurants (Mangia Mangia and Bob's on Margaret) right next door. And so on...In short super property and super responsive guest focused rental management company.

We had a great time - house is close enough to walk to most things or take the free air conditioned bus for the rest. Great Italian on the corner and plenty of other delicious restaurants/cafes within a couple of blocks. A/C works great and each room has its own unit - beds were comfortable; bed linens were not the best. And in classic Key West style, there is a rooster who walks the neighborhood each morning doing his patrol! We did bring our own pool Floats and outdoor speaker and did not see that the home had either.

For our first visit to Key West, we had originally booked a resort on Mallory Square. However, after stumbling across the Historic Key West Vacation Rentals website, we changed our plans--and we're so glad we did! Chavez House was our own private oasis. The house is beautifully renovated with so much charm and character and cozy comfort. With two teenagers, we appreciated having multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, and the location is perfect for quick bike rides to just about everywhere. We absolutely loved the plunge pool and lush tropical landscaping of the private backyard. The rental company was amazing to work with and pretty much anticipated our needs before we did. So professional and accommodating. Truly, a dream getaway!

The home was perfect for our family of 6. It was cozy yet roomy enough for everyone to be together or go off to their quiet spots for alone time. The home has been beautifully restored while keeping the key west charm. We loved our outdoor living space and the landscaping made it so private. The Managenent staff was super welcoming and responsive. We definitely want to stay here again!!!!

Reviewer Comments:
We had a relaxing time, but there were many little annoyances in this house. For example, bathroom doors were warped and did not completely close, shower handle was loose in one bathroom and had to have maintenance to come and fix it. There were no mirrors in upstairs bedrooms and only small one in bathroom, kitchen faucet was improperly installed so it was tricky to get cold water. Another thing was that there is a louver window in upstairs bedroom which overlooked the stairs so that all sounds coming from that room were broadcast throughout the house.

The check-in process was extremely easy, efficient and friendly. The home was in great shape upon arrival, clean, tidy and great location. We would definitely stay here again, it was far enough off Duval to have peace and quiet, yet close enough to the action. Landscaping was excellent, outside of residence well kept. Property description was very accurate, the amenities within the home were excellent, light switches could use better labeling, but overall well maintained. Property Management was in constant contact to see if we needed anything, for the home or concierge services - which was nice!

Everything about this house was just what we wanted. Quaint house, nice kitchen, clean bedrooms and bathrooms, great outdoor space and a great location. Easily walkable to all the major areas like Duval street, the southern most point and Mallory square. The ladies at the rental company were very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.

House was perfect in a perfect location!
Will absolutely stay here again! Parking was the only issue. Unfortunately we were there to crew a race so we had a rental van. There are few spots on the street and occasionally had to park several blocks over, but we made it work for almost a week. We walked everywhere we could - for dinner, shows, and shopping. The house is in a great location!

We had a great stay at the Chavez House - two adults and one baby. The location was perfect, close to everything but nice and quiet when you just want to kick back and relax. The home had everything we needed and we were very quickly able to settle in and make it feel like our home away from home (not just a hotel room).

Wonderful place to stay in a great location! Close enough to all the fun that key west has to offer but also far enough away to have some peace and quiet. We loved the outdoor space this place has to offer! And the house has lots of old world charm with updated amenities. And make sure you stop by Michaels which is right up the street, their martinis are to die for!

House was very cozy. I would stay there again. Only thing down fall of the location is parking. There was no parking available when I got there. There is no drive way to park your car. You have to catch someone leave that is not a reserved spot. Other than that tho, the house was very nice, clean.

Lovely house - good location!
The house is nicely appointed - upscale Key West decor. Small rooms but more than adequate for 6 & very comfortable. Very clean & all necessary amenities supplied. The neighboring homes are very close but that is typical for Key West. The pool is small but big enough to refresh in. The management company was wonderful to work with & very helpful.
