I read about the AC issue but booked anyway. No AC in main areas of house or bathrooms. We had to use 6 different fans, which the house provided. It was not good. The house was always hot. Kitchen dishes were sparse. Only one large pot and small pot. One small fry pans and a medium fry pan. No strainerâŠ4 small glass drinking glasses. Donât plan on cooking any meals because there isnât enough of anything. The large burner on the stove does not work. Only 2 lounge chairs at pool. Pool deck is caving in and warped in areas! For the money, you seriously can book a much better place to stay. The location was excellent thoughâŠ.
Audrey was awesome! Very friendly and accommodating! The house is small but it was clean. Having a private pool is very nice. The location is good. So many fun things to do within walking distance!An amazing little pizza place right on the corner ! I will say in all honesty the house is cut up inside One bedroom is very large and has a bathroom in it The other bedroom is very small and the bathroom is in the hall. The mini split unit in the spare room wasnât efficient. We figured it out and could cool the house with the use of numerous fans found in the closet. Lighting could definitely be better, this was challenging. ( no overhead lights or switches)Again it was clean, but the house could use some maintenance. The kitchen is overly large with a bar height counter but no stools. A table was placed in front of it with 3 chairs, one of them, the legs were cut off at a very odd angle. Unusable a lamp on the counter was the only lighting in the kitchen. A house that was to be used for up to 6 people would have no where to sit in any of the rooms or outdoors. The decking around the pool is very warped. Iâm sure the Florida sun is to blame. But it is a bit hazardous. It is in a residential neighborhood across the street from a grocery store. Convenient. But They get deliveries very early. No way to sleep through that. All in all we enjoyed the stay. Thanks to Audrey. We didnât spend much time in the house.
Beautiful property! Beautiful backyard/pool! Will definitely stay here again. Everything went so smooth from checking in to checking out! Thank you so much!
This was a great little place to stay! The main bedroom was spacious and cooled off well. The smaller bedroom needs a little work with their AC. The place was clean and comfortable. We had a problem with a locked door and someone was over to help within minutes. You canât beat the location! Also, having a grocery store right there was a huge bonus. Would definitely stay there again.
At first everything was going welll until we moved a piece of furniture in one of the bedrooms. Bugs everywhere that looked like termites. There were hundreds. We found bug spray in the house so we tried spraying them. I reached out to the property manager who me they would get someone out as soon as they could. Never heard back so I reached back out because by this time they were in the bed. They indicated it was swarming season and couldnât really take care of the issue while we were there but they would work on a solution for us. I donât know they meant literally. They left a solution of lemon and vinegar at the house for use to spray. We sprayed it and it kept them at bay, however this was short lived and they came back two days later. I reached out to the property manager again to let them know. Luckily that was our last night in the house and these things were everywhere in the bedroom. Iâve never heard another word from the property manager in response to my last email. I even sent them pictures so they would know I was not over exaggerating. Iâve visited Key West in June many times and have never had any issues like this. Disappointed!
Cottage was clean, bright and cozy. Pool was private and awesome. Location could not have been better - 1 block to Duval Street, short walk to either end of the island. Grocery store across the street. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.
A perfect spot to enjoy the entire island. Centrally located, very walkable and plenty of room for 2 couples. Conveniently located across from Faustoâs Grocery plus lots of coffee shops. Check out the Thirsty Mermaid on the corner! Will definitely use VHKW again.
The convenience of this cottage is incredible! Other reviews have mentioned the early-morning grocer deliveries, but we were never bothered with noise. Literally 1/2 block off of Duval makes the location top-notch. The pool was the perfect place for afternoons. The cottage is quaint and well appointed. We had trouble with the a/c in guest room. One call to maintenance and it was taken care of immediately. My only "con" was the king bed in the master was VERY firm and not comfortable of me...for others it may be fine. Would we stay there again? Absolutely!!
This was a good sized house for the 5 of us, in a great location. The only thing negative to say it that the air conditioning doesnât get cold. It was 80 degrees plus in the house with a/c on and fans blowing. The bathroom in the bedroom âventsâ to the outside via a window thatâs left open, so the bathroom was the same as the outside temperature- 96-98 degrees. Itâs August, we knew it would be warm, just not in the house!
This is a great house in Key West. Close to all activities, shops and restaurantsâŠbut on a quiet side street. The backyard and pool are your own oasis. Faustoâs market is just across the street for added convenience. Yes the delivery trucks come early, but thatâs only a minor issue. I would highly recommend this property.
