We very much enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Everything you need for a comfortable stay and a location that can't be beat. Also, the off-street parking was a time, money, and sanity saver. Thanks to Marcela and family!
Cute little cottage perfect for my wife and I. Location is ideal for those who want to be in the heart of old town , only a block from Duval and within a stone’s throw of several great places to get drinks or food. The home is older , but was clean and comfortable. We had to reach out to the owners for two small issues which were addressed very quickly.
This property is located right in the heart of Old Town and yet it is set back off the street and is very quiet at night! The fact that it has parking is a bonus! Our host and her mother were terrific and we had a great stay!
We have stayed in this perfect little home for 3 years now. We absolutely love the comfort and cleanliness our hosts provide to make our stay in Key West most enjoyable. We love the location. We can easily walk to downtown and to the Pier as well as to many restaurants. Definitely the best of the best in every way!
This cottage was amazing for so many different reasons. Location, quiet, and detail to guests needs. Marcela was a great communicator. No need to communicate too much, everything worked great! We are returning next year!
Nice and clean with cable TV. Nice patio/ deck with beautiful greenery! Updated inside! Host was easy to get ahold of when needed! Coffee was delicious!!
We have stayed here several times, it is a perfect location, and always very clean and ready to go. Marcela is a great host, the most communicative and helpful we have had using VRBO!
You can walk all over Old Town from this location. Also the off street parking is great if you have a car…parking is difficult and costly. No need for a car. Host was available at all times.
We enjoyed staying here! It is a great location and the owner was always available and ready to help with everything. I recommend this place to everyone!
This cottage was clean and very comfortable. Seemed to be newly renovated throughout. The kitchen has all new appliances. The hosts provided full Xfinity cable to a very large and new Samsung TV as well as very fast X1 wifi. As other reviewers have noted, the cottage is convenient to everything you'll need including Fausto's Food Palace, a very well stocked grocery store, just 4 blocks away. Highly recommended.
The location was fantastic, but there was construction next-door and they broke the water supply line.
Fiona had a plumber there within an hour and it was fixed within three they even gave me back $200 off my stay
We really enjoyed our stay here! The location was amazing--close to everything. We enjoyed venturing out to all the bars, shops, restaurants & entertainment. The cottage itself was clean and charming -- authentic Old Key West! We would definitely stay again.
This house is a very nice place to stay, always in great condition, and a perfect location in town. Marcela does a top notch job with communications, we will come back again,
We love this little cottage. The location is PERFECT! We try to stay here every time we come to Key West (if it isn't already booked). The owner is so nice and checks in with us to make sure every thing is good and if were enjoying our stay.
Excellent, central location, excellent communication with owner. We will stay again and highly recommend. Coffee is awesome too.

About the host
Hosted by Marcela Morgan
Hi I'm Marcela. I help my parents with the admin work of running their vacation rental. My father is a former Magistrate of the Florida Keys (1980-2006). He is a well-known attorney and 3rd Generation Key West Conch. He raised his family in his hometown of Key West and the family still remains in Key West. My mom manages the property with me and is from Nicaragua. They both speak Spanish fluently. The law office is adjacent to this property and he works there every day. My parents live down the road from this property near the Southernmost Point. So they are very close by if you need anything.
Why they chose this property
You can't beat the location. A private safe parking spot, away from the street. This is more private than the Shipyard condos, in which you are close to your neighbor and the parking spaces are smaller.
What makes this property unique
Being able to walk to almost any restaurant in the downtown area. You don't need to Uber or call a taxi. You get to walk home under the moon and stars in perfect-year-around weather, and enjoy every moment of staying downtown.
