The location of this property is unbeatable! Very close to Duval street with plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. The home was clean and well kept up also. Property manager was very quick to respond and helpful!

Biggest frustration was parking. There were no spots available near the unit until later in the evening. We had to unload across the street and then relocate the vehicle to a legal parking spot. Once you find parking, stay there and walk or Uber during the day. Typical Key West drama. The unit was comfortable, but the kitchen was barely adequate. Don’t plan on preparing any family meals and it’s fine.

We chose to spend my husband and daughter’s birthday in the Keys this year. The property is located in walking distance of everything and if you’re tired of walking, a scooter/golf cart business is right on the corner! The property was extremely clean and had all the amenities to make vacation easier. We utilized the grill and kitchen daily! If you’re like me and love to boil your skin in the shower, this place has the best hot water for showers! The owner and property manager are lovely and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this property and will personally book with them again in the future!

This place was in a perfect location. It was a easy walk to Duval and to many of the bars and restaurants. The operating manager responded quickly to a couple of minor issues that we had. I would definitely stay there again.

We attended a friends wedding with 6 of us staying at the Southernmost Retreat. Great central location close to everything, plenty of room in the cottage for all of us and ice cold air conditioning for that hot Key West weather. We had a great time and would stay again.
