About this property

Tropical Dreaming by AvantStay | 4 BLKS to Beach! Private Pool!

Do not look any further! Your perfect vacation home rental is right here! Offering a private pool with lounge chairs and a covered outside porch. You can also bring your Fido!

A distinctive private Key West vacation home with a sparkling private pool, Tropical Dreaming is the classic example of the best of both worlds while vacationing in Old Town. Only a short stroll over to Duval Street, where entertainment and activity abound or 4 blocks to the Atlantic Ocean with shimmering turquoise waters. Two stories of secluded hideaway, Tropical Dreaming has been professionally decorated and furnished and exudes a flair of the islands.

Entering Tropical Dreaming you are greeted by an open floor plan with living room and dining area, while large glass doors open to the private outside area. Open the oversized double glass doors and tropical foliage and breezes surround a sparkling swimming pool with lounge chairs a sanctuary for swimming and sunning or cooling off at the end of the days adventures complete with wet bar and outside dining.

This unique home features a full beautiful kitchen complete with everything you need to create your island fare or a gourmet meal.

Upstairs are two full bedroom suites each with a private bath and ultra-comfy bed to ensure a restful night's sleep. One bedroom has a king bed and the other two twin beds that can convert to a king.

The private 12' X 18' pool is surrounded by typical Key West flora and fauna. An outdoor shower and several chaises invite you to enjoy the sun and tropical weather that Key West is famous for.

Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous. It embodies a clash of the past and the present, and every building (including this rental) in Key West reflects this eclectic ambiance!

AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team. Whether it’s fridge stocking or in-home massages, AvantStay offers a variety of upgrades & experiences to enhance your stay.

The only complaint I have is this is not made for 6 people. The pull out couch was very uncomfortable. Pillows were hard. I would have given a better review if everyone in our party could have been comfortable.

Great location and pool

My toddler absolutely loved the pool and it was the perfect size for our family. The location could not be better…close to the beach and Duval but feels secluded. Everything you would need in the kitchen, and Avant provided a nice welcome gift.

Great location for relaxation

Location was very good, less than a mile to anything we wanted to get to, so we essentially walked everywhere. House was clean and well stocked, we brought a few things that were here (laundry detergent, coffee filters, wine opener). Only minor complaint was that WiFi was fairly inconsistent and dropped us off a lot, not a huge deal since we weren’t here to work but was a minor annoyance. Overall a great property and perfect for 2-4 people.

Avantstay has the worst communication and customer service we have ever experienced in traveling. We will never stay at an Avantstay property again. I feel for the owners of the property putting their trust in housekeepers and Avantstay.

Such a gem!

We really loved this house and would book it again. We vacationed in November and I do wish we had requested to heat the pool (but I forgot) so we never swam, but pool/backyard ambiance was beautiful. We walked everywhere. Great location, just a few blocks away from the action. House had everything we needed - glassware, ice maker, full kitchen. Very responsive team at Avant Stay as well. I appreciated their check-ins.

Beautiful property and location!

Stayed with my family here. The house was awesome and the location was perfect. Just a couple blocks away from anything you'd want. We had a couple critters visit for a bit, but everything went great. Turned out to be the best trip I've ever had with my siblings! I would highly recommend this place to anyone going to Key West!

Location, location, location!

The property is in a great location. Walking distance (if you don’t walking over a mile) to museums, restaurants, Duval st, shops and major sights. For the price we paid, I feel the property could update their appliances. The stove wasn’t working properly but we managed. It would also be helpful if they had a booklet showing their favorite restaurants, expensive or not expensive, pet-friendly places to take the pups, shopping areas, groceries, etc. Overall, the experience was great. The property manager was easy to communicate with and responds promptly. We’ll be back.

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: The house was centrally located and we could therefore walk to everything - which was wonderful! The house spacious enough for the 4 of us and had comfortable furniture, etc. We especially enjoyed being able to jump in the pool at the end of each day before going to dinner. It was a relaxing time with great friends.

Great property and location!

Our family loved our stay in Key West at this property! The pool in the backyard was perfect and the size of the home was great for our family if 4! The property management company was very attentive - replacing a tv that has stopped working during the previous renter’s stay, along with reaching out during our stay to ensure we were aware of some road closings that could affect our travel home. There was someone who came by to maintain the pool and the plants as well outside. The home was very clean when we arrived aside from the floors could have been cleaned a little better from the cleaning crew. The wood tables throughout the house could use some maintenance or replacing- they were showing significant wear but nothing that would prevent us from coming here again. The property is within walking distance of the butterfly conservatory and we drove to Smathers beach and Fort Zachary Taylor several days during our stay for beach time with our kids!
