The perfect Key West spot!

Billy’s Blue Heaven was in the ideal location for our first Key West vacation - perfectly situated between the beach and all the restaurants and bars you’d ever want. The space is comfortable, clean, and has everything we needed. We loved the two balconies and the whole feel of being tucked away in Truman Annex. It was all exactly as described and pictured. We particularly appreciated Ed and Kerry’s prompt and thorough communication from the start. We will definitely be returning in the future - and can’t wait for the weather to be warm enough to try the pool!

There were a few hiccups that were out of the owners hands. Filter for AC, missing key. All were fixed with urgency! The Karma bar is such a nice touch, we love that. Key West is a great place to hide from the hustle of life. Thank you for allowing us to hide in your place. Cheers

We have stayed in many condos in Florida and this was a fantastic experience. Would highly recommend this condo to anyone. The unit was exceptionally clean and extremely well cared for. The property grounds were also wonderful and the proximity to everything makes this the perfect spot. When we return to Key West this will be the one from now on. Bonus points for the karma fridge, such a great idea and nice way to share!

A Perfect Getaway

You can’t beat this location! A quick walk to Deval and the waterfront, a short bike ride to a beautiful beach, but completely peaceful and quiet at night. Kerry and Ed are the perfect hosts! They respond very quickly with any questions and have everything you could need- beach towels, chairs etc. We had a fabulous week!

Great week in KW

The condo is in a perfect location- easy walks to almost everything in KW. Fausto's grocery is convenient and a quick walk away, The bikes at the condo were the best- going to the beach was about as easy as it can get, 7 minute ride in safe bike lanes. The condo is really cute, has everything you'd need including a washer and dryer and is comfortable. We had a couple of requests, Ed was very responsive. The balconies were great places to enjoy morning coffee and afternoon cocktails! We would stay there any time.

New Year's week in Key West

We had a great time at Billy's Blue Heaven the week of New Year's. The condo was comfortable (master bed especially so) and clean. The area was very quiet even though the bustle of Duval Street is only two blocks away. The location was great for all attractions in Old Town. We enjoyed using the bikes and the kitchen. Would love to stay here again someday!

Don’t miss this Gem!

Awesome property. Close to everything! You can easily walk or ride one of the provided bikes to any desired attraction on Key West. No need to bring anything but your clothes and money for fun stuff. Condo had everything we needed. Beach chairs, beach towels, well appointed kitchen. Karma stations were great. We used a small cooler several times. Unit was spacious with its own parking spot. Complex has a large pool and is close to the free Duval Bus Loop. Nice on a hot day to ride in the A/C. We will definitely come back. Ed and Kerry made our vacation so easy!

About the host

Hosted by Ed and Kerry R.

Host profile image
Kerry and Ed started vacationing in Key West a few years ago and fell in love with the place, the people, and the music. Ed has been in hotel management his entire career. His sense of hospitality will be ever-present and will be happy to assist in insuring a memorable stay in Key West. Kerry has been a teacher for twenty years and will bring her nurturing style and ways to insure a happy vacation is had by all. Kerry and Ed were recently married in Key West at sea by a sea captain friend on The Spirit of Independence, an 80 foot schooner right here in Key West.

Why they chose this property

We bought Billy's Blue Heaven because we LOVE the restaurant Ricky's Blue Heaven and noticed that the two properties are only 300 steps apart. We are located at the GORGEOUS Truman Annex near the Harry S. Truman Little White House and just steps from The Green Parrot, Duval Street, our shared pool, and Fort Zachary State Park and Beach! We love having the two balconies!

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with Key West and each other from our very first trip. If you like music, down time island style, and meeting new friends you will fall in love with Key West like we did! It is truly a dream to own and share this beautiful condo! It's a small island and a walk or bike ride to everywhere: the attractions, entertainment, bars, restaurants, and unique music venues.
