Nice property

Well located and the grounds, including the pool and lounge chairs are a bit like an oasis from the shops and nightlife. Room was a bit small, but for a short stay it was a good choice.

I have been coming to Key West for 20 plus years and this is one of the best places I have stayed. It was a nice Hidden convenient location . Grounds were very well kept. Beautiful lush tropical landscaping with a nice pool. Room was very clean and nice. Awesome little secluded private porch also. The only issue is that there was a family staying in the room above us with 3 kids and every morning at about 6:30 am they were up and it sounded like a herd of elephants! Very thin walls! But besides that it was a really wonderful place and I will def be staying there in the future.

Great Location, BUT

Great little studio apartment in a private area close to most everything. But, the AC was not working when we arrived and had to wait until the following day to have it repaired. The maintenance crew installed a portable AC until the main unit could be repaired. But, the portable unit was very loud and made it hard to get any rest. Also, the upstairs tenant came in late at night and we could hear every footstep they took as the floors must not be insulated very well to block sound. We would probably use this place in the future, but will definitely be asking for a partial refung for the inconvenence of it all.

Quote and relaxing

I visit Key West every year but typically stay on the other side of the island...Happy I decided on something new! Papa’s Hideaway lives up to its name. It is a Hideaway. Behind the gate you find a lush garden with a dipping pool, just enough to cool off while you sip your rum drink! #4 is small but has all the essentials! Comfy bed, kitchenette, private patio all on a quite street only a short walk to Duval Street. My only suggestion for upgrades would be the bathroom needs a little TLC. Its small so all the dents and dings really show but I will be visiting again!!

This place is truly paradise.

If your looking for a beautiful place to take your family of 10 or just your lady and yourself then this is the place is was absolutely paradise in every sense of the word. Just don’t be surprised when you have a 6 ft iguana walk by you all non chalant. Bottom line you cannot go wrong with papas hideaway

Papa’s Hide away #4

Nice pool and a great location. Free public pool next door to the park was nice too. Small but cozy room, limited kitchen (we didn’t use it), unfortunately no ice maker on the premises. Disappointed that we had no WiFi available in room #4 our entire four day visit despite calling Vacasa three times.

Convenient location with comfortable accommodations and a beautiful courtyard.

We were unable to access the internet. The dehumidifier needed to be emptied. When I pulled out the bucket, it was covered with mold. Not pleasant!

Excellent private spot on Key West

This was a great spot. Behind Duval Street and right around the corner from the Southernmost point, you can walk to pretty much anything from this location. The private pool area was a great little oasis, and the room itself was very comfortable and quiet. Way better deal than the pricey resorts, and a much better way to experience the true Key West.

Great private little oasis

This great little spot is walking distance to all of the major Key West points of interest. It is close to the southernmost point, and is much quieter than Duval street. The heated pool is an added bonus. Way more affordable than the big resort hotels.

Cozy accommodations

Secluded spot close to all the action yet quiet and tranquil when you want to relax. Walk a few hundred feet to the southernmost point and take a pic then walk down Duval street and enjoy the bars, restaurants and other attractions.

Tropical Oasis

We loved this place so much we forgot to check out - no kidding - the manager had to call and remind us our stay was up. Great location - convenient to the public beaches and all the old town attractions. Our studio room was small, but very comfortable and accommodating. The grounds are charming.
