The home was very clean and well stocked. We thoroughly loved the convenience of the pool right outside the door. The location could not have been better. Thanks to the hosts for the lovely card for our 40th Wedding Anniversary! It was so thoughtful. If we ever come back to Key West, we will definitely book one of the homes in Tropical Village!

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed the convenient parking and the short walk to both South Beach and Duval St. It’s great to know we were the perfect spot for your Key West stay. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
The cottage was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The shops, beach, parks, restaurants, and sites were all within walking distances. We rented a golf cart that we were able to park on tge street and the heated pool was right out our back door. I would recommend these cottages to friends and family (and even strangers), and would stay here again! Management was great and very responsive to any questions or concerns.

Our stay was amazing, and everything was clear. You do have to bring your own coffee, filters, spices, etc. unlike other VRBO's we've experienced, but other than that minor nit, this was excellent.

Tropical Cottage is in a wonderful location. We parked our car upon arrival and never used it again until departure. We were able to walk everywhere and we enjoyed having a pool in our backyard. The cottage was extremely clean and provided everything we needed. We would happily stay here again!

Hello Colleen, Thank you for the 5 star review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the location, pool, and comfort of the cottage. We’d be happy to host you again anytime!
The property was in a great location! Parking across the street. We rented bicycles to get around! The pool was refreshing and right out the back door! Great place to stay!
This beautiful cottage was more than I expected when I booked …. Had excellent accommodations in a pretty setting with a safe and quiet environment … awesome location near everything we wanted to visit ….if we ever decide to visit in the future we will definitely stay here again We didn’t want to leave
The location was great. The house was clean. The layout was ideal for the entire group. The outside area was awesome and so convenient to go back to the house and relax in the pool. However, the pool was as hot as a hot tub and not refreshing cool off.
Cottage was very nice, clean. Would have liked a table in the main room. There was one but outside, not convenient.Kitchen was very clean and equipped with everything a person could want. Beds were comfortable, very nice. Quiet at night. I was disappointed that the pool was very cold. It was one of the reasons I booked this cottage. The ocean was warmer. We did enjoy our stay there.
