A white kitchen with subway tile, stainless steel appliances and an abundance of cabinets is fully equipped and offers all the amenities of home. Pendant lighting and a dining table with seating for four complement the area.

Step up into the king bedroom with ensuite bath, bedside tables with lamps, closet and dresser storage. A large pedestal sink and tiled walk-in shower are all yours.

Serene Tropical Bungalow, walking distance to Key West fun!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Horse Conch is a clean, well-maintained 2-story Key West bungalow featuring a clear refreshing pool surrounded by tropical luxury. We stayed upstairs in the 1B/1B apartment with a nicely equipped kitchen, cool a/c and comfortable bed. A simple 5-minute walk for Cuban Queen Coffee and Duval St. or a 10 minute walk to Mallory Square all while nestled in a neighborhood of quiet serenity made this location ideal. Moondog Cafe for lunch & key lime pie, waterside cocktails upstairs at Schooner's Wharf bar and dinner at La Trattoria were a few of our favorites. Don't miss Bruschetta Francesca, authentic Italian near the Truman White House! Thank you Historic Key West Vacation Rentals for your attention to detail and good customer service!

This house is everything my wife and I could have asked for! Perfectly located being minutes from duval, a short bike ride to fort Zachary and a little oasis in the back yard. Staff was easy to contact and made the stay that much better. P.S. if you want a taste of Philly try out Mr Zs right down the block, the best cheesesteak you will have and rivals some of the greats in Philly!

A little bit of Paradise

We enjoyed our Stay at Conch Horse room. The 1 BR was nicely appointed and very clean. The room overlooked the beautiful pool in a private backyard made private by lush tropical landscaping. Located in a Very nice neighborhood, a short walk to Duval. It’s close to the local grocery store that had a great butcher shop. One night we bought a great steak and grilled out by the pool.

Fabulous location

The rental was very clean and plenty of towels for the week we stayed. Just a short walk to Duval street and the grocery store. The office was attentive and communicated very well with all we needed to know. The pool and property also well maintained, which made having coffee and mimosa in the morning lovely. We will be coming back 😊

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed three nights (2 adults and a 1 year old) and the location and unit could not have been better. Everything was clean and nicely updated, and we were close to Duval but escaped the noise. The folks at Key West Vacation Rentals were also super friendly and accommodating. Would definitely rent from them again!
