Was very clean. Property well maintained. It was easy to check in and out. Instructions very clear. Host was informative. The house was perfect for what we needed. While we ate out mostly, the kitchen was well suited for cooking, etc. the rooms were perfect. Was two couples and we each had a private bathroom. Easy access to duval and southernmost.

Island Daze is a beautiful little cottage in a very convenient location. It was perfectly clean and had all the amenities we needed for our stay. Check-in and out was a breeze and the management was clearly available if needed. We didn’t need a thing, just enjoyed our stay! The parking spot was a nice extra but the car never moved because walking everywhere was easy. Highly recommended!

Awesome home!

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: This was the perfect place to stay for my first trip to Key West. The property looks identical to the photos. The location was perfect,just a few houses away from the quieter end of Duval St. There were cute little breakfast places right at the end of the street. The Southernmost Point marker was under construction and it ended up being moved to only a couple of blocks away from us. My sister and I weren't into the party scene so this house was perfect for us.

Great location. Very nice house. The parking is a little small, but we are able to make our Rav4 fit. Anything larger than that would be tight. When we return to Key West in the future we would definitely stay here again if it's available.

Perfect location

Everything about this stay was perfect! The house is located just outside of the busyness of town, but just close enough that everything was accessible on foot. It was quiet, clean, and comfortable. The host was very accommodating! I would definitely recommend staying here and would definitely stay here again!

Location was awesome. It was perfect. Only downfall is houses are so close together and floodlights from neighbors shine through the windows and keep you up at night.
