About this listing

Superb Location, Affordably Priced
This Studio is a lovely charmer nestled in a 6 unit compound in a residential neighborhood in the center of Old Town Key West. This pet friendly accommodation is the perfect location for exploring Key West. You can walk to the Hemmingway House, the Butterfly Conservatory and stroll Duval St with it’s many restaurants, shops, galleries and museums. Come home to a king size bed, full kitchen and everything you need to make your own cocktails and prepare some famous Key West shrimp on the shared grill in the Courtyard.

This newly redecorated Studio features a seating area , flat screen TV, king bed and small patio with a table and two chairs.

People ask me about parking more than anything and this condo does not come with assigned parking but there are 3 spaces on the street out front available on a first come basis. I provide additioanl tips for finding parking with my instructions but I encourage you to not bring a car into Old Town as it is an historic district and over 100 years ago it was not anticipated that tens of thousands of visitors would come to enjoy it’s beauty so there simply is not enough parking in Old Town for all who come and changing that would affect the historical value. A car is not a practical way to tour Old Town because parking is scarce and expensive all over town. Locals have adapted and have taken to bicycles to travel the Town. The City of Key West has implemented a bus service around Old Town called the Duval Loop and it stops a half block from this rental.

Should you book this property I strongly recommend you purchase the cancellation insurance offered by VRBO, particularly during hurricane season. Flights are frequently canceled by the airlines and while they may be willing to rebook new flights I do not have the flexibility to give you new dates and you will be expected to pay for the dates you booked. Cancellation insurance will cover this in most cases.

There is no pool at this property but there are small beaches all around the island and several are within walking distance of this property; Southernmost Beach would be closest at 6 blocks away. Fort Zachary Taylor State Park has the beach that locals like best, it is a State Park so there is a fee but the facilities are excellent: picnic tables, grills, outdoor shower, indoor shower, change rooms, restaurant, chaise lounges for rent and a water view that is the best in Key West.
If you prefer a pool there is an excellent public pool at 300 Catherine St. The MLK Community Pool is an 11 minute walk from the condo and this roof-top, outdoor pool offers excellent sunbathing and views of Key West.
There are also hotels that welcome patrons of their restauant to use their pools and I provide info on those locations in the condo.

Thank you,
Pam MacKenzie
