The property is nothing short of fabulous! The lady that manages the property (Lisa) is a terrific host. The property was spotless and well stocked for our week of fun and adventure. Checking in was very simple and straight forward. This property offers the absolute best privacy and beach side views available in Key West along with all of the conveniences of a resort via the arrangements made with the resort property next door. My wife and I can not imagine staying at a more perfect location for a week of fun and relaxation in Key West.

The place was beautiful, peaceful and Lisa was very attentive to our questions and requests. It's off the rowdy Duval path just a touch, but still very convenient. Will stay here again in a heartbeat.

Key West Paradise

Well it is really hard to verbalize this private paradise. It was like heaven on earth. Private beach, one of the best restaurants in Key West right next door, so clean and well stocked with anything you may need. The view alone was absolutely unbelievable and the two porches made you want to stay outside most of the time. The furnishings were so perfect and just made you feel so cozy. The only thing is the fact that this unit stays booked a lot. I’m not even sure how we were able to get it for 5 days but we did and we are hoping we can go back sometime.

The Best!

The best location, accommodation, and value! We had our own private beach and balcony, along with a third-story rooftop view of the sunset every evening. We could walk or bike anywhere on the island. Lisa was very helpful and took great care of us. The unit was spotless and very well furnished. We stay at Hidden Beach whenever we are in Key West if it's available. It's a guaranteed success for your trip!

Fantastic views, great property

We had a wonderful stay here before Christmas. The property is clean and in a great location. Lisa was easy to work with and very responsive. The views from the balconies and crows nest are fantastic. Access to The Reach next door was a nice perk, although we did use the property’s beach as well. We are already looking forward to our next stay here, and hoping it stays ‘hidden’ enough that it is available!

Another awesome stay

As always the house was just amazing. I was worried about what I would find after the hurricane caused so much property damage, but David, Lisa, Kat and crew really worked hard to put the property back in great shape for guests. I will return again! This property is well worth your time to visit.

Perfect Paradise

Hidden Beach was an adorable place, extremely clean and had everything we needed. A close walk to the greatest restaurants and adorable shops. It was amazing having access to The Reach Resort which is 10 steps away. The private beach is perfect. Lots to do and people are very friendly. We will be back. We stayed for a week and were not ready to come home. Lisa is awesome! xoxo

Absolutely Amazing

The best compliment I can give, is to say we will be back the next time we are in Key West! Beautiful apartment with everything we needed. In a quiet area that we enjoyed but still close enough to walk to touristy areas. We walked some and also did ride shares. Plenty of golf cart, scooter and bicycle rentals available as well. We loved sitting on the balconies and relaxing. My husband especially enjoyed the crow's nest for a better view of the area. Excellent communication with Lisa who answered any questions I had. Lovely architecture and furniture made for a homey atmosphere. Loved it!

Lovely and Relaxing

We've vacationed in KW many many times over the last 30 years, and this was the best stay. The room was large and comfortable with a balcony overlooking the water. The kitchen was small but well-equipped and functional. All was super clean. Neighborhood is great - quiet but quick skip to Duval if that's your thing. Being next to Louie's Backyard was a plus for happy hour and a bowl of conch chowder. Any questions were answered promptly. If you read about the seaweed - yes, there is seaweed but that's the ocean - and if you're visiting the ocean, you're one lucky dog!
