Had the “best time” in Key West

The neighborhood is safe and quiet even at night. The condo is in a great location and had all the basics needed. It was clean and nicely decorated. Advice for picking up the keys would be to skip the Uber and instead take a taxi. We had a lot of difficulty communicating with our Uber driver on how to get to the office for key pick up and as a result were not able to get there before the office closed. We had to call the Compass Realty emergency after hours number for help. It should be noted however that the person we spoke with was INCREDIBLY helpful and stayed on the line with us while we found the office and talked us through getting to our condo. My understanding is that the taxi drivers are better at being flexible with the written driving instructions to the office, since the GPS coordinates do not take you straight there. Despite the key retrieval hiccups, everything was great and we had an amazing time. Can’t wait to return!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in this rental several years. Compare to others in Shipyard that we have rented, it is be far the most comfortable and well appointed. The kitchen is really nice with a large fridge and extra counter space. The furniture is quite comfortable and the decor is peaceful and well coordinated throughout. Also, very clean. Back deck has lovely vegetation to look at and is quiet. Great location near town and nice pool within short walk.

Great rental with extras

We had a great week and having some extra items to use for the beach made it all the better. Beach towels, beach chairs, a small cooler, even a beach umbrella made the short trip to Fort Zach even more enjoyable. The unit was clean and nicely furnished, extra large shower head, the front and back decks with furniture got a lot of use and the location is perfect. Would stay here again.

Truman Annex

Excellent!! Loved the National Anthem each morning from the Little White House. Clean, Safe, Quiet. Will stay again. My only drawback is the check-in process. A very old school system. Need to install a keypad for door lock or at the very least use a lock box on site. Overall would recommend.

Great condo! Great location!

Absolutely terrific place. Great location relative to Duval and Whitehead streets, and also to Truman Waterfront Park. The unit itself is also fantastic. Too nicely sized bedrooms. A very comfortable living room. Sizable and well equipped kitchen. Back deck is very comfortable for spending time on. Front deck is smaller, but face is south so gives you great direct sunlight. Hard to imagine staying in a hotel again after spending a week here! 👍

Wonderful property!

The location was within walking distance to everything, although a bike is also useful. The house was immaculate and nicely designed. The two porches area a plus, but never used one as it had no shade and was painfully hot! Restaurants are close by and I particularly recommend Santiago's for tapas and sangria!

It was a nice place. We loved the location. Was a very nicely stocked kitchen would have been nice to have a few more pantry staples. Basically there was only salt not even pepper.

Great Place and Location!

Couldn't beat the location of this unit! A two minute walk to Blue Heaven and to Duval street but at the same just far enough away to be quiet when trying to relax. I definitely recommend!

Wonderful Property - Mgmt Could Use Some Work

The property was great! The check in process was horrible. With all the new technology out there, they still make you walk all the way to the Compass Reality building to get your key. They say that upon arrival there will be a key box with your keys in it. What they don't tell you is that there is a key box that is blank for the maintenance office. When I asked the office rep about this she was super rude. One would think that any uncertainty would be solved by labeling this box correctly., Our condo was not ready until 4pm, so we had to go hang out somewhere for an hour and walk all the way back (with our luggage), then walk all the way back to our condo. The condo itself was great, it could use a little more creature comforts, like a can of PAM would be nice. They also only provide 2 rolls of toilet paper for the entire week. Please note that this condo is a 2 bedroom, so be expecting 2 rolls for 4 people. A little cheap in my mind. The pillows are thinner, which I actually like, and the bed is more firm, which I also like. Overall, it is a great location and the actual condo is nice. We would stay here again now that we know the process for the keys.

Vacation Getaway

We loved the property. It was very clean and very cozy. The property was beautiful and spent quite a bit of time by the pool. Had an issue with one of the closet doors and management came right over. Weather turned bad at end of week and management called to make sure we would be taken care of which was very sweet. Only complaint at all is that the picture showed a Keurig which I confirmed and when we got there, it was a coffee pot. We came home with lots of coffee pods LOL. Recommend this place highly and would love to stay again.

Great condo - Fantastic location!

This condo was exactly as described. It was very clean and fresh. The only issue at all was one of the mattresses wasn't too comfortable for my old sensitive back (maybe more of my problem than the bed's problem??) You simply couldn't find a better location. The kitchen and bathrooms were nice. The vanity in the bath could have been a little bigger but the bathroom was newly updated and nice. Good doors and shower head - good water pressure. The living room was nice with good furniture. Nice decorations. My spouse, sister-in-law and I highly recommend this place and would definitely rent this same location again when coming back.
