Pete's Cottages: Twin Cypress cottages steps from Duval
This property has it all! The styling of the original shot gun homes of Key West restored with a beautiful natural cypress exterior combines with the clean lines of a contemporary home. Each cottage opens to it's own semi-private deck and lounge area with steps into a large kidney shaped pool with waterfall. Inside the comfortable living room there is a spiral staircase to the loft second bedroom with unique glass railing. Large windows in the kitchen bi-fold away to allow serving directly to the pool deck and capture the warm, tropical, Key West breezes. Rent this property as a four bedroom/ two bath or each Twin cottage may be rented separately as two bedroom / one bath. Bedding: 4 queens

This was a perfect set up for a medium to large size group with a shared private pool. Everyone was super nice and great, and got back to us with all our questions right away.
This property was perfect for our extended family. The pool was critical since the weather was so hot. Everything was clean and well-stocked. The location was also perfect, close to Duval but not too noisy. Would rent again.
This is a very nice property. Close to everything and very relaxing. Highly recommend.
Only cons..parking can be difficult, not enough bed linens ( extra blankets, etc)
Everything was fantastic! Small issue with the AC upon arrival which was taken care of within the hour. Only drawback might be the spiral staircases if you have bad knees or something similar.

We rented Pete’s cottages for a birthday celebration and it could not have been more perfect. I would highly recommend it to anyone staying in Key West.
Wonderful property, great for a group. We split both cottages among 6 adults and 2 kids. Stairs were tricky to the lofted bedrooms and pool deck could be slippery. Everything else was fantastic.
We couldn't have asked for a better find in Key West! The cottages were perfect for our family and kid's guests. The pool in the yard is perfect, just right after a day of walking around to all the sites! The location is great, at the quiet end of Duval with two cafes on the corner next door, walking distance to many of the sites and landmarks, and the rest of Duval Street. The cottages were clean and well kept, and the management company is responsive, friendly and helpful. We would 100% rent this place again!

These cottages are great. Could stand a few additions to the property, but nonetheless, the pool and lovely landscaped back yard is a pleasant view each day. There were some updates since last stay - new table and chairs in the dining area, new flat screen TVs and living room furniture. The noise from the restaurants is a bit annoying some mornings and also the parking stinks, but if you don't have a car, then it's no problem.
The location of the cottages was perfect for a family, close enough to all the fun stuff but far enough from the late night crowds. Somehow it seemed so private but it was right in the middle of it all!
The adjoining pool was a terrific setup for our extended family visit.
My only two issues were that the metal spiral staircase was a bit loose so if someone comes down in the night, everyone can hear it, and the parking was tough. It would be great to have reserved guest parking in front of the units. Trying to load/unload for a week stay from blocks away is not fun.
All that to say, I loved this place and can’t wait to go back!
Our place was well-furnished for a VRBO vacation home. The house was clean and ready to go when we arrived. We had a minor issue with the WIFI, but it was fixed quickly. Everyone we talked to was extremely kind. A one small change could make it a perfect place to stay., the sheets are harsh feeling. A better quality sheet would be very nice. It is not worth a star just worth a mention.Also note, Key West is filled with chickens, you will see them everyday in front of this house. It make me smile!

Disliked: Check-in, communication
Great location!
Overall we love the place because of the location and the pool. However, check-in was less than ideal as we were never given an access code or contacted to let us know when the house was available meanwhile all our luggage was locked up at the office and they closed. Waited all day then had to call and figure out how and when to get in to the house all while trying to get to a dinner reservation for that evening.
Otherwise a great stay.
These are two great cottages and perfect for two families of four. Property was clean and has probably one of the largest pools on the island. We were there during off season, so not sure what this would be like in the peak season, but we truly enjoyed our stay.
We really enjoyed our stay. The property was in great shape and had a great location. Just far enough down Duval to be out of the big scenes but close enough for us to park the car on the street in front of the units and walk everywhere. The pool provided for a relaxing cool down after a full day of walking. One thing to note, the south unit, left unit if facing at the front, adjoins to the fence of the bakery next door. Their fence ate opens and closes in the morning (early) and can sound like the front door of the unit opening and closing.
A great place to stay, would definitely come back.
This place was amazing!! It was perfect for our party of 8. The location was awesome, close to most things. We rented a golf cart for the week and that was a great purchase. We had most everything we needed. LOVED the pool😍 and backyard. The iguanas roaming were one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Key West was absolutely amazing and I will be back.
Only few things that I could say is the pool area is VERY SLIPPERY. I didn’t fall, but several in our party did. The stairs are very noisy and narrow but definitely not a reason to not make me stay here again.
This place gets 5 stars from me!!
The cottages were perfect for the Key West experience with nice amenities, a beautiful pool, and 15 steps from Duval Street. Came here with old friends to catch up. Will be back with my wife to enjoy a romantic, fun getaway.
