Papa's is close to everything, yet a genuinely secluded tropical paradise in Key West. Take the worry out of coordinating housing for your next big birthday/anniversary trip, family reunion, wedding party, bachelor and bachelorette parties, or holiday celebrations by reserving this large, entire Key West property. This spacious vacation rental consists of five separate homes, an original 100-year-old Conch cottage, and four considerable efficiencies, all sharing a large, palm-covered outdoor gathering area, heated swimming pool, and large sundeck.

Located in a great neighborhood, this big, secluded compound is just a one-block walk to Duval Street, considered the most popular Key West street! Duval is your best bet for fantastic restaurants, fun nightspots, and year-round events, including parades and festivals. This home is only five blocks to the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum, a must-see for fans of the late, great author, three blocks from the Southern Most Point, and 10 blocks from Higgs Beach. The Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory is four blocks away, and the historic Key West Lighthouse is five blocks away.

We had 8 adults and 8 teenage boys. The set up of Papa’s Hideaway was perfect for us. The boys stayed in the main house and the 4 adult couples all had our own cottage. The pool was great and so much fun. Having the grill to cook our fresh caught mahi was a plus! The houses were clean and VACASA provided excellent service. Highly recommend this place.

The place is FANTASTIC! Great location, beds comfortable and everything we could need.
Worked out so well for all of us! The way they do things makes the time there so easy, much appreciated! We want/will come back here.
Greatfully, Maria

The online pictures do not do this property justice. The property is gorgeous. We had 16 travelers from all over and it was perfect. It is close to activities, restaurants, bars. The southern most point is literally a stones throw away. Duval street is a couple blocks out. You can walk it or take a short Uber ride to the heart of it. We had an amazing time, mad life long memories and will be coming back again!

Ten friends went to warmer weather to de-stress from Christmas. The layout was perfect and situated on a dead end street. The pool in the courtyard was an extra bonus. The courtyard was lit up at night, providing the most reaxing vibe. We will be booking it again in the future. Thanks Vacasa!

Great house and a lot of room throughout the property. Really appreciated the help from the property mgmt company making the stay easy and fun.
Would recommend this to any large party. Only problem is people are constantly walking in out of the property to fix things without any communication

Great location! Great accommodations!
I visited Papa’s with girlfriends and it was the perfect island gem! The main cottage was great for morning coffees on the back deck and the shaded pool was great for afternoon beverages and a cool swim after a hot day. The apartments were high quality and equipped with everything you need for a restful vacation! Highly recommend!!

Great Group Stay
We booked the entire compound of Papa’s Hideaway for out group of 12. The place is very nice and clean. The pool was a huge plus when just wanted to hangout with each other. The location is just off of Duval, which is great.

Papa's Hideaway: A Great Place to Stay
We booked the entire Papa's Hideaway complex for a four-day family holiday. Yes, there were some minor issues with this location such as late notification that the swimming pool was off limits, one of the refrigerators would freeze food rather than merely keep it cold and a couple of the TVs did not work. The staff was very accommodating to our concerns and willing worked with us to make this a memorable stay for the entire family. The location was excellent, staff helpful and cooperative and facilities good (not great... because some ongoing repairs are needed). Overall, our family enjoyed our stay at Papa's Hideaway and recommend this facility for those planning a visit to Key West!

Unprofessional conduct
We booked the property for the soul purpose that it had a pool. We booked our stay over four months in advance. 15 people from all over the country flew and, but one hour before check in I was notified that the pool was under maintenance and would not be ready for our group. I was told on the phone that this was a surprise to the property manager who had hoped the pool would be ready for our stay. When we checked in the pool was an absolute wreck. For them to be surprised that the pool wasn't ready and only give us a one hour heads up on the phone is inexcusable. I feel that they did not want to give us a longer heads up, because then they would lose money if we had a realistic chance at rebooking a different property. Veronica from the property management company was nice over the phone and it did seem like she was genuinely sorry for the inconvenience, but the compensation offered was short of what I believe to be a reasonable. I tried to negotiate a more fair deal but was told that I accept their compensation or we get refunded and find new housing for the weekend. This would be an impossible task for our 15 guest party who had just flown in from all over the country. As if this was not enough the continued pool maintenance while we stayed their. Someone came over at 8am with to Jackhammer the lining of the pool , which we asked him to leave because most of our party was sleeping. Loud work was performed on the pool for several hours during two days of our stay. It appears that had been some other recent innovations because lining the street just outside of our gate was old furniture which was stacked up for the purpose of disposal (im assuming). It remained their throughout our stay and attracted unwanted attention as locals showed up to the property to sort through the couch cushions etc to see what could of been salvaged.

Merry Christmas at Papa’s Hideaway
It was wonderful to be in Key West with 15 of our family ranging in age from 2-80. Accommodations at Papas Hideaway afforded privacy as well as opportunities to be together. With Covid, we spent ad much time around the pool as possible. Units were well supplied and comfortable. Perfect location on Louisa Street, one block off Duvall on a dead end street.

Great time
This property was perfect for our group. There were small issues that that manager was responsive to. The only thing that didn’t quite work out was the heat to the pool but they tried.

Generally Very Nice
The property was generally very nice. The location is good and the various units are great. However, apparently the property is used to store vacasa cleaning supplies. Accordingly, people would enter the property unannounced at random times to get supplies for other properties. Renters should be informed about this beforehand. Would definitely rent again.

Beautiful and convenient location
We loved staying at Papa’s Hideaway! Beautiful, so convenient to all activities of the city and within walking distance. Only slight issue was being so dark at night since night pool and patio lights did not turn on till 10:30 pm, and they never fixed it even after asking multiple times. Also one Suggestion is to send out LOCAL phone number for Vacasa to person renting. Could be in the welcome email with codes. All we had were 800#’s. Either way we would recommend to stay there again for a large group like our of 12. ☀️🌴🐓🦎

Return Visitors
Our group enjoyed this retreat so much we had to come back and do it again. The staff at Vacasa were great letting us store our luggage while they continued getting the place ready for us. The cleaning was immaculate and we can't say enough great things about Papa's Hideaway. We enjoyed lounging in the pool after walking around checking out all of the sights. We can't wait to come back!

Key West Bachelorette Oasis
This tropical compound was the perfect location for a bachelorette party! We had 12 girls and each girl got her own bed/pullout. The main cottage and 4 guest cottages were incredible and there was plenty of parking! It was so nice to have our own private outdoor space to come together, but also to have the ability to retreat to private rooms to rest. The only annoying thing was that management was lurking around doing "projects" while we were there. One lady was there for almost two hours and kept going into the house while we were all hanging in the pool to install cable. There was also a guy painting the fence for a couple of hours and the pool guy came in every day. It almost seemed like we were being checked up on which was super obnoxious since it was a low key weekend. Hopefully it was just maintenance weekend and you won't experience that because it was paradise otherwise!

The compound
Papa's was the best, was there with my children and their spouses, and grandchildren. We had the whole place to ourselves, and it was great. Very secluded, and at the south end of the island. Any little problem we had was addressed immediately. It was like our own little tropical paradise. We all said we would go back again in the future. Great family vacation.

Family friendly property
We enjoyed this property so much for our family vacation. We lived the entire stay by the poolside, morning, noon and night. It was the perfect common space between the main house and the guesthouse.
Perfect location and walk away to the beach, or short bike ride, and all the activities in town and Duval Street.
All king beds made sleeping
comfortable and plenty of bathrooms.
Only disappointment was the kitchen was not well stocked with pots and pans and utensils for cooking dinner at home. Very basic which made it hard for cooking. Luckily we had 2 nights catered and the other two we went out. We made do with what we had for our one dinner at the house all together.
Hope the new owners keep this a rental. We would rent it again in a second!

Perfect Property for a large group!!
Absolutely loved it!! Would stay there again and again. Beautiful pool area and very clean! There were 12 of us, so we had the whole property. Each unit was unique, and we were pleased with each one!! The outdoor space was spectacular! Because of that, we were only in our rooms to shower and sleep. Having refrigerators for drinks and ice was convenient. There were plenty of bath and beach towels. We had EVERYTHING we needed for our stay. There are an assortment of sizes of iguanas living on the property that often got close to see what we were doing. Before our stay, Vacasa sent emails, texts and called to see if we had any questions about our stay. The 12 of us have traveled together to Key West before and plan on returningagain. Papa's Hideaway is where we plan to stay during each visit!!

AND THIS IS WORTH IT! Flawless location, wonderful pool/courtyard area, and sleeping accommodations couldn't have been better for our 12-person group. The homes were clean and charming. Would absolutely recommend this compound to everyone traveling in a group. Looking forward to going back!

Little piece of paradise
We had a large family vacation. This house was perfect. It gave us our own space while being able to stay together. The pool/common area was a wonderful little piece of paradise secluded from the rest of the world. We were a quick walk to Duvall St. and the Southern most point was around the corner. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay with a large group
Loved the location and the layout! Walking distance to beach and nightlife. Deducting a star because there was quite a serious ant problem in the main house (ants crawling all over the bathroom wall and in the living room-at least they weren't roaches though!); there was a used band-aid on the steps going into the main house when I arrived on the property (not cleaned thoroughly?); and an array of strangers helped themselves onto the property while we were having breakfast outside and enjoying the poolside (exterminator, pool cleaning service, and neighbors who claimed they have access to the pool). The strangers thing wasn't that big of an issue because everyone was friendly enough but still--strange. The kitchen was stocked with coffee and dish soap, nothing else like salt and pepper though. Beds were comfortable and A/C worked great. I really enjoyed my time there and would definitely go back.

Wonderful property !
We had a large group from all over the country come in for my hubby’s 50th birthday. We rented the whole property and loved it. It allowed the whole group to enjoy each other’s company by having shared meals and games & live music by the pool. The main house was comfortable and cute. Expect that it will some quirks as it is a ‘seasoned’ property. It was clean inside and out and the pool area is kept up, with a beautiful tropical environment. We did max out the sleeping, which meant that we had couples on pull-out couches. I must include that these were not the most comfortable. But again, just go into it knowing what you are getting.
I sent 2 emails to Vacasa ahead of the trip, which were not returned. However, I got a personal phone call the day before my check-in. Also, we didn’t have enough gas for the grill so I called the same number back and a live person answered immediately, was courteous, and within 20 minutes, 2 new tanks arrived.
This is definitely a wonderful property. We enjoyed our stay completely.
