Holiday Fun

Great location, great house but the furniture isn’t for lounging should you choose to do so at any time. Walkability is an easy 10. Had a blast because of that.

New Years on Duval

The property was exquisite and the location was perfect! Parking was not an issue and we found a place to park a golf cart on the property which was very convenient. I highly recommend renting this place if you are visiting Key West.

Great house, great location

We really enjoyed staying here. Great house with everything you need in a great location near the southern tip of Duval. Can get anywhere up and down Duval in no more than 10-15 minutes. The house was a perfect fit - great vibe to it, would stay there again.

Duvall Paradise

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay in the house on Catherine Street. It was located off the end of Duvall near the southernmost buoy and was very quiet - which we loved. The house was very well appointed and had everything we needed, and more. Our son was able to come a couple of days and because this house was pet friendly, he brought his dog. The interior was so pretty and cozy - very island like. The dipping pool out back was great to jump in after a long hot day! We absolute enjoyed staying here and would recommend the house to anyone. The location was perfect and the space more than met our needs and was so cute!! We would definitely stay here again!! The house gets 5 stars in our book!!!

Catherine House

Catherine House was perfect for our stay in Key West. The layout and amenities are perfect for two couples. The location is ideal, just off the main drag of Duval St, yet also quiet. We would definitely choose this property again.

Anniversary Vacation

We stayed at the Catherine House during our anniversary vacation with friends. Great house for 4 people, two bedrooms with two baths made life so much easier! Private patio and pool were great.

Amazing stay

This unit seems smaller in pictures but is a very reasonably sized 2 bdrm home. Everything appeared to be newly renovated and when we arrived there were very fragrant fresh flowers around the house. The beds are very large and comfortable, the bathrooms are very nice and the natural light and number of windows is great. The front porch and back pool area are also very accommodating. I'd definitely recommend this property and I plan to book it again.

Cute cottage

Cute cottage and great location. Beaches were a few blocks away and you are practically on Duval street, the quiet end. The cottage was perfect for 4 adults. We had plenty of room and never felt like we were on top of each other. We will be staying here again!

A great choice in Key West

The Catherine House was everything we were looking for and more. We will definitely stay there again. Convenient to Duval St., shopping, restaurants and bars. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer. The house is beautiful, tastefully decorated, clean, well equipped and comfortable. With two master bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms, it is great for a family or two adult couples.

Super clean. Block off Duval. Great location.

Great location, super close to Duval street and tons of stores, restaurants and sightseeing. House was great, clean and had all of the amenities for day to day and pots/pans to cook with. A BBQ would be a great addition. Parking a little more challenging during the week but easy on the weekend to park across the street at government office. Would definitely stay again.
