Truman Annex Review

We had a great stay at this property. The listing was very accurate and the space was beautiful. And the location was perfect. We highly recommend the specific condo. The only issue we had was that they were painting the exterior, including the decks outside the bedroom, wanting to start quite early, and had not alerted The realty company about their schedule so we could prepare.

Oscar at Compass Real Estate was our hero!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We arrived at Key West to find the condo we rented (privately for 15+ years) had been sold and the owner failed to notify us. A call to Oscar @ Compass Realty & some quick work produced this condo to rent. Shipyard Condos is the perfect place to stay in Key West! Close to Duval, parking (you really don't need a car), a great pool & overall very nice people that are respectful (read no loud parties, etc.) Blue Marlin is a beautifully furnished very high class condo. We stay in a lot of condos during travel & this by far had the highest class furnishing & decorating, simply beautiful but also welcoming. The only negatives were quiet a bit of street & chicken noise & it is on the second floor so you must be able to climb stairs.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was our first stay at Truman Annex and made sure we rebooked for next year before leaving, as we will never be happy staying anywhere else in Key West now. Marlin Blue was our new home away from home and everything we needed; the condo was laid out perfectly. The staff at Compass Realty couldn't have been nicer.

Awesome!

You cannot beat the location. You are close enough to walk to everything you want to see and do but secluded enough that the evenings are quiet. The place is clean, nice, and well stocked. You will have everything you need.
