Amazing - must stay!!!

I stayed here for my bachelorette party with 10 friends. This property was PERFECT! It fit all of us with plenty of room (and even some beds weren’t used!). The backyard was perfect for sitting by the pool during the day and having dinner at night. The garbage disposal did break during our stay and the property manager sent someone over immediately and had it fixed that afternoon. It was so walkable to Duval St and all the fun night life. You just stay here if you come to key west!!!

Perfect for Large Group Key West Getaways

This was the only option that could accommodate our large group, and it was everything we hoped for.Ample sleeping capacity. Sizable back patio space with a pool. Amazing proximity to Duval street scene and a quick walk to other entertainment.

Fantastic Spot

We had a blast. The location was fantastic. The house fit our group perfectly. Big enough for folks to have some privacy/space but comfortable enough to hang out as a group. Super clean. Being steps away from the action was so key. I am hesitant to give an awesome review because I want to be able to book this place again!

Birthday celebration

The William Skelton house is a terrific property. We had a bunch of couples and the house was perfectly located from the fun on Duval street, the marina area and some great restaurants and bars a few minutes away from the stuff of Duval. The property owners were great with answering questions and this property is highly recommended.

New Years in Key West

Great stay in this historic property. We had lots of room for 10. Everyone enjoyed the heated pool - which is really more of a hot tub. It was especially enjoyed by the youngest in our group. Great location to enjoy Duval Street and the rest of Key West. The parking is very narrow but will fit two cars. You just have to move the first one to get the second one out.

Beautiful stay in central Key West

Beautifully furnished historic home in central Key West! We travelled with whole family: grandparents, parents and kiddos (teens). All together there was 9 of us and we fit very comfortably in the home, with lots of room to give each other space. Two large living rooms, large kitchen (with plenty of starter coffee), and plenty of kitchen items. Very close to Duval, we could walk or take golf carts anywhere in Key West! The host was VERY responsive and kind. Was easy to find and coordinate arrival. I can’t rave about this place enough - would love to stay there again if we ever come back!

Brothers bachelor party

Don’t judge book by its cover! Had more than enough space for 9 of us friends and family to stay the weekend. Location is a prime! Even though it may look old on the outside it is so clean and well maintained. If anyone mentions they need a place to stay in the keys for a group or a large family. I definitely know a place after this one! Thank you again James!
