Great place to stay

Property is close to everything one needs: grocery, dining, beaches, and bars. Property managers, Whitney and Shana, were very attentive and responsive.

Wonderful month!!

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 cottage was small but very comfortable. From the outdoors to well appointed bedrooms and kitchen. The days by the private pool were delightful as we knew it was very windy on beach. Santiago and nine one five were two favorite resturants. Bicycles were a plus but walked easily as well.

Just Another Day in Paradise!!

I can't say enough about this property. My daughter and I stayed just about 3 months and it was absolutely wonderful! When we had to leave, I left a little piece of me there. I will miss Hemingway's Hideout!! You will not regret staying in this amazing little home.

Just Another Day In Paradise

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 for our 3-month stay. They thought of everything that you would need (except the first-aid kit). We absolutely loved it. In our short-long stay it became part of us. We were sad to leave, but I will always remember Hemingway's Hideout and the new love I have for Key Wes. It was a complete pleasure to have the opportunity to stay in this fantastic home.

February Stay in Key West

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: In general, we enjoyed our stay at this property (our 4th monthly rental in KW). Pluses: (1) property management - Whitney was very responsive; (2) location - we like this area of KW; (3) bikes (although they need lights for riding at night); (4) great back deck with vegetation and shaded places to relax. Not so good: (1) for half our stay the pool was too dirty to use; (2) limited, not-so-comfortable seating in the living/kitchen area; (3) appliances are old and there is no kitchen vent over the stove.

Wonderful place,great customer service

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: The property lived up to it’s online description and then some. Very comfortable, nicely furnished, and very nice well equipped. Having two bikes included was a much appreciated added feature. The rental agency’s customer service was five star outstanding. Whitney, our manager, responded to every question or concern we had immediately, and made sure it was resolved. We would not hesitate to return.

Great month in Key West

We loved this house and would love to rent it again. We spent most of our time poolside. Whitney was very helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had. Location is great and neighborhood was quiet.

Cozy House but needs work

We stayed in the house for the month of July. The location is good. You have easy access to the major roads and the street is quiet. The management company is very attentive. Upon entering we were a bit disappointed with the overall state of the house for the money we paid. The walls need to be repainted, the closet situation in the first bedroom looks like the door fell off so they just put up a cheap curtain, there is a huge gap in the doorframe of the front door of the home, the mirrors were hung upside down. It felt like there was not much attention to detail. The rooms were cozy enough but it is a space better suited for 2 or 3 people. The outside pool is lovely but there is quite a bit of mold in the corners and the last renters that commented about the trash being around the back yard are correct. I think the deck and awning were brand new as they are in great shape but the outside furniture needs to be replaced (particularly the lounge chairs). The beds were comfortable and we were provided plenty of linens. I will say there was a grill and the use of two bikes which we didn’t know before we got there and were a great addition to our stay. The kitchen is packed with everything you can need as far as equipment. Again, it’s just they little things and when you are paying nearly $7k for a month, it feels like they add up. Again, it’s a solid rental but it can be made so much better with a bit of upkeep.

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First, Melanie and the crew that support this house are among the best we’ve experienced. The house is another matter. It is extremely small and uncomfortable for a monthly rental. There is ONE piece of furniture to sit on (an uncomfortable couch) and four very uncomfortable stools around an island. The bedrooms are ok, but the social/living space on this house is one small room that includes the kitchen. And the pool area has the only table and chairs, so you eat outside or around the small island. The pool is ok, but the deck is a big mess. They said it was scheduled to be replaced and is long overdue. The owner stores junk and old deck furniture along and under the house. If you have pets they can get under the house and pool deck (not clean). Few of the doors close properly. The pictures on the rental site are old and out of date and do not reflect the current condition of the property. Bottom line, it fell way short of our expectation considering the price to rent it.

Best. Stay. Ever. (even in a pandemic)

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 house is beautiful. It is absolutely charming inside and out. The neighborhood is quiet, but a quick walk to everything. The backyard is absolutely spectacular. The moment we walked in the door on our first day we all had the same reaction - it's even better than the pictures. It truly came to feel like home and we were so, so sad to leave it. I would go back in a heartbeat and would absolutely recommend this property to anyone who's looking to stay in - and fall in love with - Key West. Things not to miss: El Siboney cuban food right around the corner. A walk up and down Duval street. Take the (provided free of charge!) bicycles down to Mallory Square and hit Simonton pier to watch the sunset. Sit on the porch with your coffee or take in sunrise over the pool and palm trees in the backyard. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is leaving!
