About this property

The Caribbean Suite - 2-K-bedroom /1 bath/ kitchenette/sleeps 6

This deluxe "Key West Charmer" is a beautifully restored Victorian home built in the 1880's that was converted into individual condominiums many years ago, located just one block from Duval Street in the Heart of Old Town Key West. Our casual atmosphere allows you to chill out and enjoy having the best of Key West within easy walking distance of all the restaurants, bars, entertainment and museums that we are most famous for.

Mingle with other guests around the tropical gardens surrounding the heated pool and sundeck creating the perfect setting for a laid back and quiet afternoon. Enjoy alfresco dining in the tropical gardens while you enjoy the wonderful weather that Key West offers!!

The Carriage House building at the Hollinsed House 2nd Floor - "Caribbean Suite" is a tropical 2BR/1BA with king beds, full kitchen, living room (with futon), dining area; two balconies with one stretching across the front overlooking the pool and garden area and one located off a bedroom. Sleeps 4 - 6.

Nice property and location

Charming older quaint property. We loved it. Loved the grounds and it's location. Clean but had a slight damp musky smell. Not bad and suspect it's related to it being an older property in a warm humid environment. It would not prevent me from booking again or recommending it for a stay at Key West. In fact my wife and I and are friends agree that we may book this property again on our next trip to Key West.

Perfect location in Key West - quiet location yet close to the action

This is our second time at Hollinsed House. We love it for its location, but came back because we knew that it had everything we needed. it has a kitchen, a balcony and it's clean and spacious. You never feel like you're on top of each other. Also, the pool was a welcome respite at the end of every hot day's activity. The host was extremely responsive, too.

What a nice place!

I took a couple of friends to Key West to celebrate my 70th birthday. Lois was very kind in helping set up my reservation, and she provided fresh towels every day. The accommodations were comfortable, clean, and fresh. I truly enjoyed the stay. Well done, Lois!

Key West - Hollinsed House

The Hollinsed House was a great place to stay while we were in Key West. It was a little over a block off of Duval Street and the property was fairly priced. The property manager was nice and easy to deal with. I will certainly look at this place again for any future visits!

Key West Perfection

This property was lovely and representative of Old Florida charm, with modern amenities. The location was wonderful for walking to all of the sites we wanted to see, the beds were comfortable, and the courtyard was a great place to unwind; dip in the pool or relax on the lounge chairs. It was a fantastic home base during our trip, thank you!
