I adored the lush gardens that surrounded the property, creating a serene atmosphere. The charming decor of the inn and the accessibility of common areas made it a delightful retreat, especially appreciated by someone my age.
More seating options in common areas would be helpful.

Had an amazing time with friends! We enjoyed the 90-minute train tour and sunset at Mallory Square. The places nearby had great food and live music. The staff made dinner reservations easy and our breakfast on the patio was a highlight. Make sure to try the cabana massage in the garden!
Our only issue was the noise from the street at night, which disrupted our sleep.

The lush gardens surrounding the property were enchanting, creating a serene atmosphere that felt like stepping into a tropical paradise. I particularly appreciated the accessible pathways that made it easy to stroll through this beautiful sanctuary.
More accessible seating in common areas needed.

This place was a proper fit for a budget stay in Key West, great value for money. The hosts even arranged a scooter delivery for us, which was a lifesaver. Watch out for the early morning roosters—they're loud!

Couples' Paradise, Couldn't Have Asked For More!
The staff treated us like royalty, always attentive, and genuinely cared about our stay! We also loved the private patio off our room, perfect for enjoying a quiet morning coffee while soaking in the tropical vibes.
It wasn't exactly a bargain, but what I got was worth it.

Chill vibes and cozy stay
We had such a relaxing weekend in the garden room! It’s small, but so cute and opens up right into the garden, which is lovely. They really thought of everything—like free water and cute umbrellas. The breakfast in the outdoor dining area was delicious too! Just wish the jacuzzi pool was open later. Perfect for a peaceful getaway.
