The gated compound is within easy walking or biking distance to everything in Old Town Key West, Duval Street, and the best entertainment and dining on the island.

CHICKENS & ROOSTERS
The City of Key West protects chickens and roosters, and considers them as part of the history and charm of Key West. As a result, Key West and many of the islands throughout the Florida Keys have free-range chickens and roosters. You will definitely see and hear chickens and roosters during your stay in Key West. Some visitors to Key West love them, and some visitors hate them - personally, I enjoy them best roasted, with plantains, and black beans and rice!

CRITTERS
Also, please remember that you are in the tropics and most life forms typically thrive in the tropics. Please don' t be surprised or alarmed if you see a lizard, or an insect.

Great time with Friends!
Location was close to everything happening on Duval, and we walked or biked everywhere which was perfect. The street is busy and loud. More roosters than what I am used to in previous stays in KW. Sleep was an issue so I never felt rested. Sharing a pool and patio space with other families was a challenge and we found that we didn't have the space that we needed for our people. It was New Years Eve so we were there to celebrate and have fun and we did that!

Sweet Property
The main house was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The property was kept in tip top condition with the routine landscape maintenance company and pool cleaning company. Great place.

Very nice house and property, ideal location, parking, and arrangement
House was clean and well kept, pool was lovely. Beds were firm but comfortable, ample towels provided (for 6 people for 3 nights), kitchen was well maintained, and access was simple. Only downside was some very noisy chickens next door (although they are protected and super common in Key West) crowing very early, but earplugs solved the problem. Also some communication issues as some maintenance people arrived unannounced during the stay, but overall a great trip and would stay again.
