Great time in Key West

Highly recommend the Truman Annex rental. Clean and convenient to downtown Key West with Duval Street just steps away. We had no problems or issues. Community pool was well maintained. Great place to stay!

Best Location in Key West to Stay- The Shipyard!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall condo appeared clean when we arrived, however we did find bugs in the shower and our bed that appeared to be cockroaches. We washed all rugs and couch cover before leaving. Chair arms and cushions are dirty and could use an updating. With all that being said, the Shipyard is our favorite place to stay and are saddened to hear that we can no longer rent on a weekly basis.

Best Rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the best rental I've ever had! Just the right size for 2 sisters looking for a little getaway. Great location within walking distance of almost everything on the lower half of the island. The beds were comfy, the kitchen well-equipped, and a nice living area to watch movies in at the end of a busy, sunny day. Everything was nice and clean and in good order. The unit had a washer/dryer and beach towels and plenty of linens were furnished. We are looking forward to renting again in the future.

Perfect Location!

I had the best time during my stay at The Sweet Life. If you have a bicycle you are only 5 minutes from everything at this location. The gated parking area is very nice. I felt very safe here. I intend on being back there very soon. I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Last vacation to Key West

We rented the Condo at Shipyard because of the walkability factor. It was cozy and sufficient for a 1 week stay. It was clean and nicely decorated. We came to Key West to purchase a house, which we did, so we are now on our way to becoming Freshwater Conch's. I texted with Melanie and communication with her was great. So nice! I did use the pool at Shipyard which was nice. This is a two bedroom with queen beds and one bath so great for a family for a relaxing vacay! Thanks Melanie... It will be great to meet you!

Family vacay

Very nice property and very clean for our family. Not super spacious but enough for 4 people. Would definitely stay here again. My only complaint is that they need more dishes and pots and pans for people who like to cook on vacation and not eat out every meal. :)
