About this property

Heart of Downtown Key West Cottage With Off-Street Parking

A Historic Cigar-Makers Conch Home, privately owned by a native hospitable family in the heart of Downtown, a few minutes walk from Duval St. Accommodates 1-2 couples. Your car will be safe in this parking spot, nowhere near the street. The Cottage is set back from the sidewalk so you are not subjected to traffic noises.


Note two things:
1. The price listed is for 2 guests only. There is an additional charge of $75/night for an additional guest.

2. The cottage is set back from the street but nearby at Hank's there is live music...luckily
as of around 10.18.23 - their music is now set further back from us! The music ends at midnight.

Property is in the perfect location to walk everywhere in old town. One street off Duval and very close to Sunset Pier. The house is charming and was perfect for the two of us. Very clean and has every amenity that we needed. Host is very attentive to detail and was always easy to communicate with. I highly recommend!

Perfect Getaway

The king bed was so comfortable (didn't sleep in the queen bed). The AC was wonderful and necessary. Perfect location for walking to see all the sights. Comfortable couch. Shower could use more water pressure. Convenient parking spot. Nice little kitchen. Good size tv.

Cute property with great location

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.

Great place to stay in heart of Old Town

The place is nice, but it's really all about location. We were able to use this as a base of operation to explore all of Old Town easily. It's really about .5 mile or less from most stuff you might want to do. The Hemingway house is just a short walk down the street away. Get tired or want to drop off something? Just pop back in, no trouble. The owners were also very nice and easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay here again the next time I am in Key West!

Perfect cottage to enjoy Key West

This cottage is wonderful! The hosts were very welcoming and hospitable. It is a great location since it's tucked back off the main street but is within walking distance to everything you will want to explore in Key West. The off-street parking on the premises was a plus! The entire cottage was very clean and equipped with all the amenities one needs. It is very quaint, spacious and comfortable. We would highly recommend this cottage for your next stay in KW. You won't be disappointed. We have already booked for next year.

Great location- close to everything

The property is perfect - very clean with everything we needed. Both bedrooms have ample space, while the kitchen is small we had enough room to cook several dinners and breakfast daily. The appliances are all well maintained and new. The house is convenient to Duval yet it was quiet in the evening because it is set back from the road. The hosts are attentive and very responsive. They offered great recommendations for restaurants and even leave a package of their coffee in the kitchen and we enjoyed it each morning. We had a fabulous week and will return!

Location, location

A great little cottage for staying in Key West. Incredibly close to everything you would want to do, my wife and I only moved our rental car once the entire week, making me wonder if Uber would have been a better choice. A couple minor criticisms would be that my wife wished they had a full length mirror, and I would have liked a more options in the kitchdn as it was tough to cook our own meals. Regardless, I'm not sure you could have a better experience staying in Key West if you are lloking for privacy and to do your own thing. If I ever come back to visit, staying at this cottage will be my first consideration for sure!

About the host

Hosted by Marcela Morgan

Host profile image
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.
