4 Br Cottage Vacation Rental In Key West, Florida - Vrbo Property # 35288

We have a wonderful MONTHLY rental to offer you: an historic 'conch' house has been completely redesigned and custom crafted by 2 architects as our home away from home. Featured on HGTV, this intimate house boasts many fun and thoughtful features which will help make your stay in Key West special. It is located in a wonderfully private yet centrally-located neighborhood on a hidden Old Town lane. It has a lovely small freeform heated pool (with built-in bench), and a relaxing patio in a private backyard - complete with outdoor eating area and a new truly wonderful outdoor shower (with hot and cold water!). Swim, eat, and watch butterflies and birds under the palms....

This is a classic compact 'Conch' house, typical of old Key West. This house is in a truly quiet, residential neighborhood just a few short blocks to Duval Street, the boisterous hub of town. Although on the cozy side, we designed it to be light and airy and is decorated with lovely modern furnishings, wireless broadband internet service (reaches the pool area as well), living/dining/kitchen area and it even has a second comfortable living room complete with cable TV. Both downstairs bedrooms also feature flat panel smart TVs.

The house is perfect for your retreat both inside and out. Inside it's cool with tile floors, central air, cathedral ceilings, a full, modern kitchen, 2 bedrooms plus a comfortable carpeted loft with 2 twin beds in one room and a double futon in the other (accessed via a steep stair). We also have 2 lovely tiled bathrooms - one with a creatively tiled tub/shower and the other with a tumbled marble tiled shower. All beds are comfortable with new mattresses! Our home is strictly non-smoking.

We have provided everything you’ll need to make you feel right at home including a small collection of books, a fully stocked kitchen, a gas grille (with gas provided) and cooling ceiling fans in every room. Call us for current availability and rates for your stay. We are open to accepting pets and have a separate pet deposit (if pets accepted) with an additional mid-monthly cleaning required.

All you need to bring to this lovely island is your bathing suit, a pair of shorts and flip flops and come enjoy the beauty and diversity that Key West has to offer!

Here's a quick To Do list I sent to someone recently: 'So much to do here! snorkeling out in the reef (about 5 miles out) on a boat is great - can combine it with a sunset sail, parasailing is awesome - go to Smathers Beach for good early in the day deals, best beach for swimming/snorkeling is Ft. Zachary Taylor - not perfect sand (lots of coral) but lovely place with beach chairs for hire too, great dining all over - definitely try Louie's Backyard for a splurge and get there before sunset - they have incredible decks overlooking the ocean and fabulous food (we also love El Siboney - a locals Cuban place), really tasty croissants at Old Town Bakery, great place for coffee/breakfast is Sandy's Cafe on White St., La Te Da has fabulous high class drag shows and dinner, rent bikes for best overall experience (just lock them religiously) or rent a scooter for the day. That's for starters. Don't need to bring many clothes or fancy shoes - very casual and carribean. Flip flops work well here day and night!'
p.s. At the house we've left a couple of binders stuffed with menus and things-to-do and places-to-go while you're in town. We hope you find Key West as enchanting as we do!
