50th bday bash

We were in keys for a friends 50th birthday. Rental was in a great locations. We loved daily walks to Sandy’s coffee shop even walked back from Duvall st one evening. Having the bikes was a great bonus to the rental. The rental was easy to find nice and clean when we arrived. Host was in contact and seemed available if we had needed him. Would recommend to anyone looking a place to stay that’s reasonably priced.

Great place for short vacation

We enjoyed our stay at Shawn’s studio. It’s a great place for a couple, quiet but close to all attractions. It has all we needed for four nights stay. Two bikes were a great bonus. The owner is very accommodating and responds to messages very fast.

Great getaway!

Shawn was very accommodating as I had to move my dates due to hurricane Milton. The property was so adorable and had everything we needed. The bikes made everything so convenient as we absolutely love riding around the island! We would definitely stay again!

Are you ready

This was definitely the perfect location. Bikes were provided which was a plus just go for a nice little ride around the neighborhood which I would do first so you can get a feel of where everything is located. We would go site seeing early in the morning to beat the crowd and heat! Later in evening we would uber to the the farthest point and just walk our way back, people watch,dine, and bar hopping. Some of the things to do go to the southermost point, 0 mile sign,go to the rum bar and and have a painkiller, do a food walking tour, go to the butterfly and nature conservatory which is a must! We also did a half day to Dry Tortugas National Park by ferry it is more than enough time than you think. Everyone we talked to were not disappointed. The place was perfect for the two of us it had everything you need couldn't ask for anything better. The only downside was the shower. Since we were continuing our trip for another week we went to do laundry next door another plus. Out of all the cuban food we had the one next to the laundry was buy far the best. We either went there for breakfast or just a late night snack. So are you ready to visit key west

Great Location, Great Place!

Studio blue is a perfect little cozy studio apartment that had everything we needed. It’s in a great location and within walking distance to everything, Duval Street, Mallory Square, Higgs Beach, all of it. The two bikes are also nice, and can be safely ridden around the area. We would definitely rent this place again!

A Gem!

This was our first experience with VRBO and we can’t say enough about how wonderful our stay was. The place is clean, charming, and located in an area with easy access for getting around whether you are walking, riding the bikes that are provided, or driving. The property manager Shawn is amazing. He was easy to reach and accommodating. We highly recommend staying at Studio Blu and would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful little cottage with everything you need

Excellent place to stay. The place was clean and tidy. It has the necessary amenities and the location is great! 10 minutes or less walk to the water front, grocery store less than a block away, and great little food shops close by for breakfast, lunch, and dinner needs. The owners were great and prompt with messages and checking to make sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. Highly recommend and we would stay here again.

Anniversary Get-a-way

My husband and I stayed in Studio Blu for our 10 year wedding anniversary! It was the perfect little space for exactly what we needed! Tucked in away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough for just a short walk or bike ride. Clean, convenient, comfortable. The property manager was magnificent and accessible; even months before our scheduled arrival, my questions were promptly answered! Free on street parking was a blessing, as parking doesn't come cheap on the island!! We will 100% stay here again if we return to Key West! Thank you for a beautiful stay!

Perfect for me!

This was the most adorable cottage and is advertised just how it is in person! I was able to cook dinner for myself one night and I felt safe and very secure in the property. It was very clean and I can’t wait to come back to Key West and stay there again. The hosts were very responsive when I had questions excellent communication.

Great get away in the Keys!

Studio was very clean and nicely appointed, within walking distance to restaurants and bars, had a cute courtyard and provided everything you needed for a fun stay. Bikes were a huge plus. On street parking was readily available in front of the studio. Only concern was the claw foot tub /shower combo. While it was cute, you needed to be cautious getting in and out..was fairly high off the floor. We would highly recommend this place!

What a Keys Getaway!!

Studio Blu was incredible. Sean and Adele were awesome hosts. They communicated constantly with us and really made our stay a home run. The property itself was beautiful and very centrally located only a mile from the main heart of Duvall St and less than a mile to the beach area. The property comes with a lot of "nice touch" extras such as bicycles and beach chairs.We will absolutely reach out to Sean and Adele again for our next trip to the Keys! Thank you for making our 30 anniversary one to remember!

Oldtown - Key West

Nice central location, loved that bikes were available on property so we walked or biked everywhere we went. Studio is great for 2 people, very clean and modern. Was not able to connect with owners by text or thru VRBO, but not a problem as was only trying to respond to their inquiries. Best cuban sandwich ever at Sandy's Cafe about 3 blocks away on White St.
