The location was in close proximity to Key West and in a quiet area. The manager did allow us to check in an hour early. The shower had great water pressure. It wasnât terrible but wasnât wonderful. The emailed instructions gave us the wrong wifi sign-on instructions but eventually found the instructions on the refrigerator. We visited in January and the temperature was cool outside. We spent most of the days away from the cottage. The instructions said to not set the temp below 75 or the A/C would freeze. Needless to say we obeyed and it was very hot and stuffy. The next night we opened windows and ran the fan and it was still hot. I messaged the manager and told her the temp was 81 when we returned to the house. (Outside it was 74) She didnât seem to believe me when I explained that the a/c cooled for a short period and then began to blow warm air. She instructed me to lower the temp to 73 and let her know. Same thing happened. That night we opened windows again. She said she would let the A/C man know on the following day which was the day we left. In addition lights didnât work in some areas, fans rattled and the furniture was heavily used and old. Bed frames were very loose and squeaky. Heated pool was 2 rows of houses away where a rented house was located. Too far to walk wet and cold (58 degrees the last night) The house and grounds need upkeep. Chairs around the exterior broken and concrete in disrepair. I would not stay here again.
Check in was seamless. House and property were exactly as advertised. We have stayed multiple times and will likely come back again. We love Cudjoe Cottages.
