Laura R.

My last ten stays in Key West have been at the Garden House which is a few blocks off of the busy Duval Street. The rates are excellent during the summer months and ask for Sammy the host who makes my stay each time enjoyable. Waffles topped with fresh fruit is complementary every morning. The rooms are not modern but clean and cute and a small pool is on property. Parking is available and also bicycles for cheap.

Stayed at this bed and breakfast hotel several times and love the hospitality and location, which is a couple blocks from the heart of Duval Street which boasts tons of great restaurants and legendary bars. We wake up in the morning to a fresh stack of waffles with fruit and whip cream on top, with a bowl of cut fruit and OJ. We sit in the center common area at two small tables overlooking a small tropical pool. My favorite part of this hotel is the FREE unlimited beer and yogurt in a small fridge on the counter top next to the hot coffee. The staff here is friendly, but the best guy is Sammy who in my opinion runs the show here and makes sure your stay is entertaining and enjoyable. Prices are high like everywhere else in the Keys until April, so reccommend summer months for decent rates.

Our stay at the Garden House was an absolute great experience. The fresh made waffles and fruit in the mornings to the comfortable relaxing atmosphere as a whole made our stay great.

Sammy is the best!

The Garden House was perfect and conveniently located within walking distance from the Key West Express and Duval Street. The rooms were clean and comfortable, breakfast was delish and Sammy and his staff were the best....extremely friendly and made you feel at home! A member of our party slipped and fell and Sammy was right there to assist with whatever she needed! Highly recommend this quaint little place! Thank you, Sammy, for everything, including the many laughs!!

This was our first time staying in a guest house and we very impressed here! The place is so cute and inviting. The breakfast had great options and even custom waffles with fresh berries and whipped cream, prepared by Sammy. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. It was nice to have a code for the room lock instead of trying to keep track of a key card. Sammy, the inn keeper, was very friendly and accommodating. He was always ready to help in any way. And his dog KD was so friendly and well behaved. We'll definitely stay here again on a return trip.

Booked this hotel last minute because we needed to stay the night in Key West before our flight the next day. Booking was super easy and quick. The Staff was helpful and courteous! This is the cutest little B&B with beautiful plants and foliage, ambrosial smells from all the Jasmine, it's adorably decorated, has nice clean rooms, and tasty breakfasts! We took advantage of the clothing optional pool which was a very comfortable temperature and private! Super easy walk to Duval St. and Mallory Square! Can't wait to come back to Key West and book this charming B&B again!

See all

The second floor suite was clean, comfortable, and had views of Duval St and the Southernmost Point marker. While on Duval St, you are close enough to walk to everything, but just far enough to be able to have peace and quiet.

Would highly recommend to anyone traveling to Key West looking for more relaxation than pub crawl.

This impressive Queen Anne Victorian style house was designed as a one-bedroom mansion. What it lacked in bedrooms it more than made up for with its open water views, elegant public rooms, two story balconies, and large stained glass windows to catch the ocean breezes. little bit of History piece: William Curry came to Key West, from the Bahamas, penniless. He became a wrecker and with his massive fortune, built eight mansions in Key West and became Florida's first millionaire. His daughters wed wealthy men as well. One of his daughters, Florida Euphemia, married Judge Vining Harris. Interesting Fact: Electricity was a novelty and a luxury in the 1890's. Mrs. Harris wanted the best and was able to engage Thomas Edison to oversee the electrical design and installation for the house.

Good water pressure and warm water for showers. Front desk staff offered recommendations on restaurants and has coupons to provide to guests.

And one of the rooms we stayed in had AC that couldn't keep up with the heat. Would still recommend despite the minor cons we experienced.

We were welcomed by Jenn, who went out of her way every day to make sure we had everything we needed and to answer any questions and make recommendations. When Mary came on duty she was just as outgoing and helpful. Both these ladies made our stay special. The croissants were amazing, ham and cheese, chocolate, raspberry and almond every morning. As well as fruit cups, yogurt, orange juice and coffee. I think bagels and English muffins as well. Our room, Banana Winds, was huge. Also had a double shower. Comfortable king size four poster bed. The location was perfect, about ten minutes from the Amp, Smokin Tuna, and Duvall Street. We walked everywhere with no problem. (Cab to and from airport was a flat $18 for two). For those people who complained about being "shushed" in the mornings, I'm gonna infer that you think you're more important than anyone else, so even though you're standing outside three bedrooms, it's ok to talk loudly instead of getting your breakfast and heading back to your room. Luckily, the Mile-0-Fest people are awesome fans, and the hotel was only us. No problems with noise because we ALL partied late and slept in. Great hotel! FANTASTIC staff, extremely clean, and great location. We couldn't have asked for more.

They offer a variety of rooms at different price points - we chose the Trinidad Room which is on the second floor of a two-story, four room house. What's great is that many of the rooms have patio areas with tables and chairs for lounging. The premises felt pretty secure with a locked gate. The grounds were kept very clean. The Inn has a well-maintained pool with lounge chairs, tables, and a small bar were they host a 430-530 happy hour (they ring a bell to let guests know when it starts) and breakfast after 8 am. Guests were mostly friendly. Why wouldn't they be? They're visiting Key West! There's ice on the premises (important for Florida) and a large, glass pitcher providing fresh, cold water, 24/7. The Inn has bikes to rent which are in good shape and recommended for longer excursions (the island is flat and very bike friendly). Two bikes were about $32 for the day. Our only ding is that the surrounding area is quite loud and busy, with many loud vehicles (cars, trucks, motorcycles) passing by the property all day and one side of the property abuts a noisy harbor area. If you're looking for a quieter experience, you may want to check out other locations. The Inn informs you of different paid parking options, the closest (a short 5 minute walk) being the most expensive ($40 / day, which ends 10 am the next morning), and the farthest (about a 15 minute walk) being the least expensive ($15 / day, cash only). I tried each one and they both seemed safe places to leave your car overnight. The Inn is a short walk to central KW, Duvall St and many great sites and restaurants. Because it is on the northern side of Key West, sites along the southern part will take longer to get to and street parking is quite a challenge and if you do manage to find a spot, very expensive. In fact, we rented the Inn's bikes to visit Fort Zachary Taylor Beach and a piano bar at The Gardens Hotel. The bikes were a great way to explore the key, which on a map looks smaller than it really is! The Inn Keepers including Tracy were great! They were very helpful and attentive during hours - off hours start at 6pm.

The room was huge with a private entrance and patio, and nearby the pool. The location is phenomenal right near Duvall Street but without loud noise or chaos, it becomes a quiet retreat. Service was so friendly here and we loved the happy hour rum punch and seeing Mango in the morning! The pool was also fantastic. I would be more than thrilled to stay here again!!!! One note - because of the low ceilings, be careful if you're super tall in the Puerto Rico room!!!

The pluses include a beautifully maintained courtyard and pool area with all manner of palms and tropical plants that are very well cared for, and a pool that manages that Goldilocks just right magic of being refreshingly cool during the day and almost bath water warm at night. Whatever temperature you're looking for it to be, it is. So many hotel pools and the keys aren't heated at all, which they really need to be in order to be comfortable in the winter season, and others are overly hot so they aren't comfortable during the daytime. This one is perfect, and azure blue. La! I found the bed extremely comfortable and the room very well kept and clean, although I can see where many travelers would find it cramped. We wound up in room 13, which I think probably offers the quietest location within the complex as well as a slightly more sizable room than some of the others. My husband found the noise from the neighboring pub distracting when trying to fall asleep, but I thought the room was incredibly well soundproofed considering the amount of hustle and bustle in this busy tourist area. You will also hear airplanes taking off and landing here, but you also hear them everywhere elseon the island, and with the window air conditioning unit on high fan at all times I found the city noise was almost entirely drowned out. The ceiling fan, however, was unbalanced and when we had the repair person come look at it he said it's fine, which is certainly wasn't. My only disappointment in our visit was that the breakfast that were included were pretty meh. I've been spoiled on staying at b&B's where the breakfast was a huge part of the experience, and here I felt like every single breakfast we had I could have made much better at home. Especially in Key West where there are three creperies within a 3 minute walk of each other, the breakfast game is strong, so when you aren't bringing your a game it really shows. The manager of the facility and most of the staff were incredibly friendly and seemed to truly enjoy and take pride in their work, which made our experience extra enjoyable. We also enjoyed chatting with fellow guests in the charming breakfast nook and comfy poolside seats. We stayed here for four nights and stayed at the far more expensive Southernmost Beach Resort for one night during our recent visit, then spent a week with friends who live in the area. The room was much larger at Southernmost, but much more problematic and less painstakingly cleaned, and radically less soundproofed than our room here. On a future visit we would stay two extra nights here for the same price.

Pillows that were flat and felt like cardboard we Had a crazy window right at the front door, looking in from the street. Anyone could just pop their head up there and look at you while you're in bed. Very creepy and weird. Not to mention light blaring in from all of the windows booked for four nights for over $400 a night and was just absolutely awful. Not one piece of art in this room, air conditioning leaking, dripping down the walls. Place smells musty. The vinyl wood floors are scuffed up in 10 different places. Just a really plain, awful room. And not typical. Some of the other rooms are amazing, but do not book in this one for sure. We will now be looking for other accommodations in Key West. The staff offered us a discount on our future booking instead of giving some sort of concession for this terrible stay we had and not being able to sleep. They also told us we could not move rooms, that there were no other rooms available, and the place appeared to be very empty to us. We never saw more than five people at a time in the pool or common areas.

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.
