Beautifully furnished historic home in central Key West! We travelled with whole family: grandparents, parents and kiddos (teens). All together there was 9 of us and we fit very comfortably in the home, with lots of room to give each other space. Two large living rooms, large kitchen (with plenty of starter coffee), and plenty of kitchen items. Very close to Duval, we could walk or take golf carts anywhere in Key West!
The host was VERY responsive and kind. Was easy to find and coordinate arrival. I can’t rave about this place enough - would love to stay there again if we ever come back!
This house is in the perfect spot to walk to Duval st. Its only a 1/2 of a block away. So park the car and dont touch it till its time to go home. Great specious house with a nice back yard and pool.
Don’t judge book by its cover! Had more than enough space for 9 of us friends and family to stay the weekend. Location is a prime! Even though it may look old on the outside it is so clean and well maintained. If anyone mentions they need a place to stay in the keys for a group or a large family. I definitely know a place after this one! Thank you again James!
Everything was amazing! House was so cute and perfect for our large group. It was right in the center of everything and in walking distance to all the fun. Host was super responsive and very accommodating. Would definitely rent again!
I hosted a reading retreat for my book club of 16 women at the William Skelton Home. It was the perfect place for us. There was plenty of space for us to spread out and read, plenty of seating for us to spend time together, and a short walk to Duval Street! We really enjoyed the serenity of the private pool too!
Great home to stay in, with a lot of attractiveness having Duval right outside the door. Highly recommend for a bachelor party or bachelorette party to stay in while in Key West!
Our group of 8 had room to spare and a very enjoyable 2-night stay. The home was SPOTLESS. It is a historical home so if you can’t get your head around that stay elsewhere. We loved it.
This is a fantastic property for a large group, the host was also super easy to work with the and the check in process was seamless. The best thing about this property is the location, its really the best location. The walkability to local attractions and restaurants is unbeatable. Highly recommend.
This house was great. We had an amazing time. No complaints at all. It was walking distance to all the fun places. It was equipped with everything you need and the pool was an added plus. Cant say enough good things about it. The owner was also great to work with. We loved it!
Everything about this place exceeded expectations. The check in was easy and they even let us store our luggage before our check in to make everything more conducive.
The house is better than advertised, within walking distance to all the bars and restaurants.
The house location was absolutely amazing.
Everything was top notch.
I would recommend this house over and over again, the back yard is so tranquil and the layouts of the room worked out well for bigger parties.
We had 10 friends staying in the William Skelton Home this past weekend and the home was perfect. Our hosts were helpful and accommodating in letting us store luggage there on our arrival. The house is so close to so much of the action of Key West and yet it's quiet and peaceful when you're back at the home. It's a special place to stay and perfect for large groups.
We absolutely enjoyed our time at the Skelton house. Everything was very well managed, and every detail was accounted for! Such a wonderful location, and overall experience with great friends! Highly recommend! Very clean amenities!
The property was very clean. The house felt beautifully rustic and historic. It was only one block from Duval and just steps away from almost all the action. Snugged between two bed and breakfasts, it is an amazing place for a large group for family to stay.
I booked this house for a group of 10 adults in town to celebrate my birthday and it was great for us. Everything looked even nicer in person than in the photos. We loved the pool and patio. There are a lot of distinct common areas, so if one person needed to be on a work call or something they could be in the back sunroom while others were in the upstairs living room, etc. Was very comfortable for us and we enjoyed our stay a lot, hope we can come back sometime!
