Adorable house in a great location. The house had everything we needed for our stay in Key West. The pool was a great addition to have after a day of shopping in the Florida heat. We would definitely stay here again.
House and pool were beautiful and relaxing!! Perfect location to all the fun! Walkable to restaurants and bars! We rented a golf cart about a block away from house which was also very convenient. Our stay at this house created a perfect week for the entire family. Would definitely stay again when visiting Key West.
We had a very positive stay at Tropical Retreat. The property is in a great location and was very comfortable. It was as presented on the website and the property managers were great to work with.
Centrally located to everything in Key West. The front porch was amazing and to sit in the evening and have a glass of wine overall enjoyed our week vacation.
My family of 4 absolutely loved this property. The location is next to none, right off Duval street so we were able to reduce time driving and finding parking. Also, we absolutely loved hanging out by the pool which is super relaxing and was a perfect temperature. Highly recommend staying here.
This home, pool and guest house were a perfect fit for my family. We loved our time in Key West because we had the perfect place to come home to every night after each adventure!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Tropical Retreat. Check in was a breeze and the communication was excellent. Concierge made several recommendations for a snorkeling trip and a sunset cruise and both were great. We definitely recommend this cute three bedroom bungalow.
We loved our stay at Tropical Retreat in Key West. The location was perfect with walking distance to tourist spots, bars and restaurants, but far enough away to have privacy and some quiet. The house itself was perfect for 3 couples and the pool was a huge plus to relax in the mornings and afternoons. We will be back!
This property is a 10/10 Plenty of room for our party of 7 adults. Super clean and the property manager kept in touch the entire time. Highly recommend
Lived have the pool house for grandparents and main house for kids/grandkids. Pool very nice. All furnishings comfortable and very clean. Well stocked kitchen. Highly recommend.
Great property with plenty of space for grown up sons. Pool cabana was a plus for extra space! Easily walk to all that Key West has to offer! Very quiet neighborhood and comfortable home.
This place is a hidden gem. Based on everything in KW it was better than we expected and the location to Duval was very nice. The pool area is like a quiet oasis. Highly recommend this rental.
Great place and so close to everything. Very clean! It was nice that every bedroom had its own bathroom. The additional cottage was very nice as well! We would stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was beautiful. So close to all the action on Duval Street
House is a very comfortable size. Quite surprised with the age of this house that it had 2 1/2 bathrooms, plus another full bathroom in the pool cottage. Nice, clean in ground pool was very relaxing and a joy for our 15 month grandson. Very well-appointed.
House and location are great. We come to the Keys every year and we really liked this place. However, the construction is an issue. Street was closed off, sidewalks too. Should have notified us on this. Annoying to be woken up that early on vacation. Take that away, great spot and highly recommended

Recently stayed here with husband and 3 teens for first time trip to Key West. Beautiful home, plenty of space. Beds were comfy, home was clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend this home and would definitely stay here again! Loved the pool and outdoor area. No complaints!
Comfortable property. Great location. Super comfortable beds. Great pool. Awesome house! Host is always available and is easy to communicate with. Wouldn’t think twice about staying again. Only recommendation is to provide coffee filters! Thanks again.
We had three couples so attached bathrooms to the three bedrooms was perfect. Place was clean and had what we needed. Communication with property manager was easy and good. Great location to walk to restaurants, entertainment and shopping. We didn’t use pool much as there was construction going on next door every day. It is an older home so noise outside with construction was louder but surprising at night, it was quiet, even being so close to Duval street.
