Harbor Inn we love you
Alisa B.

This is it! They do it right! Steps away from everything, yet nestled quietly on the corner surrounded by lush vegetation. 2nd time staying here and happy hour too everyday that they provide Tracey, Dave and a special shout out to Kristin who is smiles all day and happy to help!

My husband made a reservation at this amazing place. I was concerned because it was above our budget but it was worth it. Centrally located, cozy little room and great and friendly service. The hotel manager went above and beyond, she's been working there for 19 years. We stayed at Trinidad, overlooking the heated pool. Unfortunately, we were expecting breakfast as they advertise in their website but they're not providing breakfast due to covid.

pretty much all you see from the street

Our favorite place to stay in Key West. Great location. Not fancy or pretentious. Go elsewhere if you want pristine setting. Read the fun history of the place & you'll understand the place more. We've stayed in several different rooms & liked them all. Each may have a quirk, like slanted low ceilings in Puerto Rico, but hey, it's in the attic with a sun deck & great harbor view. I don't think there is a bad room at all. Happy hour at the pool & light items for breakfast are provided. Private jungle setting with places to sit outside. Orchids in the trees. Very friendly cats that like belly rubs.

Door that doesn't close right and you hear everything

I have asthma and as soon as walked into the main gate I felt my asthma acting up. Tracy was the woman in the front desk and we asked if we can be put in somewhere far from the restaurant and she said it's all the same and just brushed off my comment. We walked in to the room and this place is OLD. The door does not seal up right, all the walls are like paper thin and can hear every steps of people upstairs. We booked for two nights but asked to cancel for the one night because of Asthma the problem and since we checked in already. Tracy said let me talk to the owner. Then she just emailed him and waited. She had no response and would not call him. I asked if she could get into contact with them quicker she said No, just waiting via email is only way. Than She said "why didn't you check and see, where this place is? So you don't know anything about this area?" Here is my response Tracy, most travelers don't know everything about the area. the owner got back to us and said no refunds after 14days even for medical reasons. even though we booked it two days before we got here.

The location is PERFECTION, clean, rooms are large! A chilled pool which in July you appreciate! Full breakfast every morning until 10:30. Eggs, bagels, cereal, fruit, mimosas () etc., and every day a free HAPPY HOUR! My husband and I travel quite a bit and we fell in love with this place. The staff is wonderful also. We hope to come back anytime we visit Key West!!

Stayed here 2 nights at end of February and very happy with our choice. In fact, on the fence about whether or not to give 4 or 5 stars. The room and bathroom were clean, the breakfasts were more than sufficient and included yogurt, fresh fruit, cereals/granola, variety of breads for toast with peanut butter and jelly, and juices. The happy hours happened to fit into our daily activity schedules nicely, 4:30-5:30, right before we had to arrive at the marina for our 5:15 sunset cruise. The happy hour chips were stale one night, but in that humid climate that could happen within hours of opening the bag. Leonardo took our call and made our reservation, and Tracy was our host when we arrived. We were an hour or two early and the room wasn't ready yet, so we put our belongings under the stairs until we could get in. It worked out fine. Both hosts were very polite and friendly. A recent review mentioned the sugar ants. Yes, we noticed those, too. They didn't bother me. Some people feel that more aggressive spraying could take care of all bugs, even in the tropics. I don't know. I'm a bit more tolerant of a few little ants in this climate. If there were roaches or other big creepy crawly things traipsing through the room that would be a different story, but the only other visitors we had were tiny geckos outside our door and they didn't bother us either. There was a musty smell in the room, which was noticeable at first but again, not a big deal to me. They had a tiny dehumidifier running at all times. The wall air conditioner cooled down the room to sleep at night. We stayed in the Curaçao room, which is modest but comfortable and includes a wet bar and dorm sized refrigerator. There is a tiny hair dryer in the bathroom. We didn't notice a safe in the room. There are 2 windows near the ceiling, on opposite walls. This is great to let light in during the day, but at night when the outside light is on it does illuminate the room a bit. Caution to those who need a dark room to sleep. The room rate isn't cheap but it's reasonable for the location, which is epic. We didn't have time to do a lot of research before the trip but we were lucky to have chosen this spot. If you like being near the action (including the marina, where the sunset cruises start) but away from the noise of Duval Street, then choose a place that's on the south end of the island (this is a must -- the north side is just too far from everything and not convenient) and a couple blocks off Duval. We almost booked a place on the north end and are glad we ended up here in spite of our ignorance. Parking -- officially, there isn't any for this B&B. We rented a car only because we were headed elsewhere at the end of our trip but if you're only staying in Key West do not rent a car. You're better off with a golf cart or better yet, mopeds or bicycles. But if you do have a car then know that free parking is desperately hard to find until after 5-6:00 pm, when people all leave the marina area. You may find metered parking nearby to bridge yourself to the evening when you can move the car but that will cost $3 per hour -- for us, we ended up forking out nearly $20 until we could get a free spot. It adds up quickly. Once you do find free parking, you won't move your car until you leave town because you will walk everywhere. It's a very pleasant, pedestrian friendly island with narrow streets that are no fun to drive in a car.

Pool

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Harbor Inn. It was our first time in Key West and I was surprised at how close everything is at this location!! Our snorkeling trip was right around the corner at the docks and a ton of great restaurants are nearby. The Inn itself is STUNNING! It is exactly what I was looking for, history and classic Key West style. The Inn is located right on Elizabeth with a gate access. As soon as you enter, you're in a tropical paradise with so many beautiful trees and a private pool! The room we stayed in was very clean and updated, and everyday they have free happy hour. I would absolutely stay here again and I cant compliment the staff enough. They go the extra mile to make you feel safe during COVID. 10/10 experience!

Break fast by the pool

This place is one of the best kept secrets in KW if you haven't had the pleasure of staying there!!! I just spent five days at this wonderful private cozy establishment with great friends!!! Leonardo the owner has a great thing going, Tracy and the rest of the staff were wonderful , polite, and very helpful. The accommodations were perfect, clean and very tidy ... beautiful landscaping, really nice individual rooms.( basically small individual suites), lite and fresh breakfasts by the pool served daily, evening Happy Hours by the pool every after noon serving a variety of drinks and snacks. Well worth every dime spent! Definitely will be returning in the future!!! Thanks for the good memories!! 1/5-1/10 2017 Antonio

The Mermaid & The Alligator is what you hope a bed-and-breakfast will be…read more Set in a historic Victorian in Old Town, it's shaded, peaceful and just far enough from the noise to let you breathe. The rooms are comfortable and full of personality, with small details that make them feel lived-in rather than staged. Outside, the gardens are the star -- leafy, quiet and perfect for lingering. Our room had a wraparound porch and a hammock. Breakfast isn't an afterthought. It's fresh fruit, homemade dishes and good coffee served outdoors, slow and unrushed. And because it's independently owned, the hospitality feels real -- warm, attentive and low-key in the best way. You come to Key West for the energy. You stay here for the calm. And you leave wishing you'd planned to stay longer.

If you've ever dreamed of running away to a storybook Key West hideaway, stop scrolling -- this is…read moreit. The Mermaid & The Alligator is hands-down the best bed-and-breakfast in Key West, and honestly, you'll wish you never had to leave. Housed in a 1904 Victorian mansion right in the heart of Old Town, this independently owned gem has the kind of charm chain hotels only pretend to have. Think wraparound porches, lush tropical gardens, orchids dangling from banyan trees, and a vibe so tranquil you half expect Hemingway to stroll through with a daiquiri. The rooms? Gorgeous. Each one feels personal, with Caribbean-inspired decor, canopy beds, and soft linens that make it way too easy to "accidentally" sleep through your Duval Street plans. Outside, the gardens are pure Key West magic: fountains trickle, palms sway, and yes -- the occasional rooster might strut by like it owns the place. Breakfast here is its own event: fresh tropical fruit, homemade pastries, quiches, and strong coffee served in the garden. It's the kind of peaceful start that makes you consider selling everything, moving here, and writing your memoirs. And because it's independently owned, the hospitality feels personal -- warm, genuine, and full of little touches that make you feel less like a guest and more like a friend who lucked into paradise. The Mermaid & The Alligator isn't just a stay; it's a love letter to Key West itself. Come for the charm, stay for the breakfast, and leave plotting how to "accidentally" extend your trip.

Honestly, it was a good stay! It's a town house that's been converted to a Inn. There's like 4…read morebedrooms on the main floor, and more rooms upstairs. Each room comes with actual keys to get into the front door of the guest house and into your actual room. There's cameras located in the common area. There's patio areas to hangout and the home is on Duval street. The prime bars and food spots were 5-10 min walk. The beach (Fort Zachary) was a 20 min walk The rooms were not super modern, but it was comfortable. It came with a tv, iron, mini fridge, and fresh towels. You don't hear the actual noise on Duval street from the bar. I heard more noise from guest moving around and slamming doors. I would definitely recommend packing eat plus if you're a light sleeper. Especially if you're on the main floor near the front door. They provide a small continental breakfast including boiled eggs, freshly baked pastries from a local spot, cereal, oatmeal packets, milk, juices, and coffee. There's also a donut and coffee shop next door with THE BEST donuts EVER!!! It's called Glazed. The service was great! Foster is the main go to guy for questions and needs. He was super kind and helpful. He gave us really good recommendations for places to see, eat at, drink at, etc.... Overall, I would definitely stay here again. It's a prime location, clean, affordable, and good service. If you book directly through their website you save 10%.

Clean place. No bed bugs, at least in my room…read more Enough space to stand and walk around the room. Decent BF. The location is 5stars.
