Great four night stay in this beautiful, comfortable rental with a gorgeous view. Exactly as advertised and very clean. Appreciate that the owners called to check on us the morning after our first night. Not sure if it’s the time of year, but we also had the pool area almost entirely to outselves on multiple days which was very nice. Would recommend and hope to visit again on our next trip to Key West!

My family had a great time spending a week here for our Key West trip. Great views and great condo!

This is a pretty location and super clean condo.it was easy to find. The parking spot in the multi car garage to left of the east entrance is a good size spot. The owners were friendly and in contact with us right away so I believe if you have issues they would be good to work with. The only negative is hearing the dump trucks by the pool and the dust all over everything outside. But it was noted in the description that there is a current renovation project there. There is also a lot of remodeling going on inside the other neighbors units so you hear a lot of those noises. my suggestion is to enjoy the ocean sports we loved our snorkeling trip.and sunset cruises. . This condo is a lovely place to stay..

We were very impressed by the location and all of the amenities available to us on our vacation. I would highly recommend this property. We will definitely be back!!

It was great overall. A few little things though. The patio furniture was stuck in place. Moving them took muscle. I was thinking it’s set up that way because of strong winds. There was a knock on the door mid week with guy asking if we wanted an exterminator. I thought it would have been nice to have a heads up from the owner. Good notes. It was a great location and plenty of room for putt family. Great view of the ocean. Nice that there was a library “room” and a game room(but didn’t see any paddles for the ping pong table). Our visit came with rain and storms everyday but we still had a great time around town.

Very nice place to stay. Close to everything but on quiet side of island. Would recommend staying here if in the Keys.

The penthouse was even more beautiful in person than shown in the photos! The view of the water was amazing, and there was plenty of space inside and on the (huge) balcony for me and my family to relax. Having access to the pool and private beach were also highlights, and it is conveniently located near Smathers Beach! The owners had everything setup and ready for us, and we had the best time! We will definitely be coming back!

The location and property were wonderful! We enjoyed the pool and hot tub on our down time and late afternoons. The parking garage was perfect, especially on our rainy days. The condo is equipped with full kitchen, laundry, bar area( glassware)and beautiful balcony! We would definitely stay here in the future!

The check-in process was quick and painless, even though we didn’t arrive until after midnight. The property was quiet, and clean. The condo itself was spotless, it had all necessary amenities and a great view as well! The spot was very close to Duval St, within walking distance of a nice beach - overall, it was perfectly positioned for tourists!
10.0
The location was perfect! Right near all the main areas. There was everything you would need for essentials in the kitchen, bedroom and laundry. All instructions were as described. Would def. Stay here again and again. Comfortable beds, great air conditioning and a loving friend, Iguana, that happened to be living above the patio. Great view of the ocean, pool and beach. The environment was quiet and no complaints of any noise. Also, lost my phone in the mangroves Andy replacement was sent to the front office and accessing and getting the package was with ease. Again, I cannot say enough. Thank you!

The condo was amazing! The ocean view was great as was the pool and hot tub. It took us a little bit to figure out the lay of the land, but it didn't take long for us to know where everything was. The proximity to Smathers Beach is a HUGE bonus. Probably a 3 minute walk to an amazing KW beach. We arranged for parasailing out of Smather's Beach so it was very convenient to be able to walk over there instead of having to drive somewhere. Our family likes to try different destinations, but we wish we could pick up and move this condo to every location we ever visit!

We were pleasantly surprised by the space and layout of the place. Location is great! It’s adjacent to one public beach and only a 2-3 minute drive to another on the southwest side. It is also far enough away that you don’t have to deal with the tourists from the cruise ships.
The place had nearly everything we needed. Towels, chairs to take to beach, pool noodles, and plenty of kitchen items. We only needed to hit Publix for some items to stock refrigerator. I would consider this unit again on future trips to Key West.
I deducted a star because the unit is a little worn. You can see it most in the bathrooms. This is mostly cosmetics, like different colors of silicone around tub and shower tiles, doors frayed along sides, sink dripping, shower control only gets hot when handle in about 10 o’clock position, patio door not seemingly lockable, patio having lots of spider webs as if it’s been without use. Well, we didn’t use because of all the webs. Some repairs should be considered.
About Key West:
Being surrounded by water, the island has very little beach, as seen throughout other parts of Florida. The beaches, for the most part, have large rocks, seemingly to prevent erosion, along them. There are a few spots you can find a sandy stretch similar to most other beaches. However, the water is nice, clear, and shallow. We walked out maybe 50 yards and the water was still only about mid chest for my 13 year old daughter. Must have water shoes for beach to pass rocks

We enjoyed it very much. Condo was clean, roomy, and had a great view of the ocean. Pool was great as well; we enjoyed it very much. Went to Duvall St. to get a feel for the island, since we hadn't been here since 2010. All in all. we had a great time.
10.0
The inside and outside of this condo was perfect. Anything we needed was onsite (beach towels, kitchen gadgets, cooler) and the outside view, pool, jacuzzi and sauna were all very enjoyable and relaxing. We hope to be back again one day. Thanks for sharing your place with us. Take care.

What we loved: the heated supersized pool and hot tub by the ocean! Amazing. Can’t beat it. Pool area is quiet and peaceful and just lovely, though the pool area closes at 10pm. Spectacular view of the ocean!
What we didn’t love so much: lots of maintenance issues to the property…elevator broke down, a/c didn’t work, pest control showed up out of the blue….the porch was really dirty so we didn’t go out there much. The beach area is full of debris and glass apparently from a past flood, so you will need to go to one of the adjacent beaches. Smathers beach is also currently under construction so it’s really loud and has bad air from the construction vehicles. Also…10am checkout. Thats way too early for those of us who like to sleep in on vacation. Also, the second bedroom has a floating wall so there’s no sound barrier to the living room.
The place was super clean and safe which is why we gave it a 4. And the location is awesome. The whole property is just a little dated. Overall, it’s a great stay. We had a nice vacation and loved Key West!

Condo was very clean, comfortable furniture, nicely stocked with paper goods. Balcony was a definite plus! Terrific amenities on property, plus easy walk to public beach. Easy 10 minute drive to restaurants and tourist sites.

The views are even better than the photos. If you value being able to stare out at the ocean from your coach or out on the lanai you cannot go wrong. We really enjoyed the location as it was only a few minute bike, or 5 minute walk to beautiful Smather's Beach. We rented bikes and it was 10 a minute ride to Duval Street. Riding back and forth either on the coast or through the neighborhoods was a ton of fun. The pool and hot tub were a big hit with the kids and the adults alike. The condo is nice and shaded in the morning to drink your coffee or eat breakfast on the patio. It gets quite sunny and warm in the afternoon if you want to lay out on comfy lounge chairs. The covered parking was a big plus. Tennis courts looked nice and people were playing but we did not use them. It is a great condo if you want those ocean views!

I rented this property for my Father and Sister. They loved the property, the beautiful view and proximity to the beach.

This condo had everything we needed, was super clean and had a lovely view of the ocean and pool. The pool was a nice size although a tad on the chilly side, but still enjoyable. My only complaint would be the king size bed in the master bedroom. I found it uncomfortably firm, but then again, that’s personal preference. Would definitely recommend this property.

Property was exactly as described and great for us. View is awesome! Loved the location! We had a golf cart so we could get around the island then escape back to the peace & quiet. The unit is clean, roomy, comfortable beds. The complex is a bit older but very well maintained. The pool is beautiful and refreshing!! The gardens were so pretty to walk thru. We had a great stay!!

It was absolutely perfect. The view, pool, condo everything was wonderful. I would go every year if I could and would love to stay for 2 weeks instead of 1. The only thing I would change is the directions were confusing and when I called security they seemed as if I was bothering them. We we’re on the right floor but the numbers are in the door knocker and not clear. There’s signs on some condos that are rentals and others not so you see those numbers before you realize the numbers are engraved in the gold door knocker. I would have to make it more noticeable. W wouldn’t mention anything about the west side because that made it confusing especially since security acted like he did. I called just to get clarification and he acted as if I should have known and really never answered me, it took us figuring it out and then he was like yeah!! As far as the condo it was perfect. Thank You

Week vacation in Key West, loved this quiet condo. Amazing ocean view from huge balcony and from the huge salt water community pool. Very clean and comfortable. Great communication! Very easy to work with. Loved the full size washer and dryer with plenty of laundry and general supplies. No pantry supplies (other than red solo cups that came in handy!) , but we ate out all the time anyway!
6.0
Property was in a great location. Less thn 2 miles from the airport, overlooking the ocean/beach and easy access to Duvall and downtown. Pool area and gardens were very nice and always clean.
Property showing its age in some areas and elevators and hallways were very warm.
Our unit was ok, but 2nd bedroom never got cool enough to sleep comfortably and the decor was way dated (think late 80s early 90s). Didn’t feel it was worth the price. To be fair, the owner did reach out and drive down from Miami to check on the air and did get a little better but still uncomfortable. Overall disappointed with my selection on this one.

This property was great! The perfect stay four our family of 4 for the week. The property owner was responsive and the location is as described. Clean comfortable location with a perfect spot to watch the Fireworks for the 4th right on the property so you can avoid the crowds on Higgs and Smathers beach. The guest book was helpful in finding a kayak trip for us and lead to a great and memorable time kayaking with Tortugas Jack who was such a great and fun guide through the mangroves. Will stay here again next time staying in Key West!

We were in Key West on a trip for my daughter. This condo was just perfect. We had an easy time with check in. Even though we arrived late in the night, instructions were easy to follow to lock box and keys. The condo was very clean. There was plenty of room for everyone in our family. The ceilings are nice and high since it is a penthouse but just beware that the wall is open at the top and you can hear everything between the living room and the first bedroom. Beds were very comfortable and linens were clean. Plenty of fluffy towels for everyone and beach towels. The desk in the master was a bonus since my husband had to work remotely a few days. Kitchen was well stocked for dining, cooking and baking! Ice maker in the refrigerator was helpful. The view was beautiful! The entire complex was great! Workout area, hot tub, large pool, sandy area with lounge chairs as well. Literally a 3 minute walk around the corner to Smathers Beach. Garage for the car was great but sadly we were not able to use it because our car was too high. Just a heads up, if you need to park in the “extra parking” just be careful because people squeeze into areas that are technically not parking spaces and makes it difficult to back out of your own. We were able to bike almost everywhere.

The property was great. We were upgraded by the owners for a better view, however, we didn't know until we tried to get into the lock box for our instructions, other than that hiccup, the check in was great. The condo needs some updating in the Hall bath. The vanity was very low, and the commode even lower. There was a few issues that we dealt with throughout the stay, but nothing that ruined our trip. Tuesday night and Wednesday night late, after midnight both nights, a group of young people got in the pool and were very loud. So much for pool closing time of 10pm. Wednesday night it was after two and we still heard them, Tuesday night they were chased back inside by heavy rain. Aside from the property, the stence in Key West is horrible, I am assuming it is the sargassum that is coming into the area. I doubt that we will ever return to Key West.
