Amelia Home by AvantStay | In Historic Old Town w/ Pool

After a long day cool off in your private pool, enjoy cold Mojitos on the covered porch and cook up some fresh grouper on the grill! Welcome to your dream vacation home!
The Amelia home is a 2 bedroom 2.5 bath retreat with sparkling private pool that is only four blocks from the Atlantic Ocean and one block from all the Duval Street entertainment. This is the Key West vacation rental you have been seeking, tucked away in one of the most interesting neighborhoods in the historic district of Old Town, an ideal location for walking and biking to all the attractions, yet quiet and tranquil making it feel worlds away.

Entering The Amelia Home you are greeted by an open floor plan with living room and dining area, bright colors and Key West décor complete the feel of being in the tropics while large glass doors open to the spacious outside area. Hardwood floors are throughout the first level living areas and pocket sliding glass doors lead to the dining loggia. Through additional sliding glass doors on the side of the home you will find a lush tropical garden that looks into the pergola style orchid house. A half bath is located on the first floor along with a sleeper sofa for extra guests.

This special home features a full beautiful kitchen complete with everything you need to create a your keys cuisine or gourmet meal.

Custom crown moldings and built-in bookshelves are some of the many fine details that make this a special home. Furnishings include an eclectic international mix of plantation style and antiques, reflecting the diversity of Key West.

Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous.

Perfect Key West Get-Away!

The Amelia House exceeded our expectations! It looked exactly how a Key West house should with exquisite wood finishings, open air flow, and a beautiful pool. The neighborhood is quiet and restaurants, stores, and Duval Street are all in walking distance. My husband, my 81 year-old father and I had the perfect vacation there. We will definitely be back.

Just Average & Overpriced

The pictures give a much more favorable impression of the property than real life. Updates and paint are needed to continue to charge a premium price for just an average property. The pool was really an oversized hot tub and I was charged an extra fee to heat it (which it wasn't - swimming at the local beach provided warmer water). In addition, there was some type of company directly next door operating out of a shipping container that made A LOT of noise each morning. Also, there is a parking spot, but you better have a smaller vehicle. I was driving a Traverse and had to park into the bushes on one side to be able to exit the vehicle. I would not stay here again and am disappointed in how much I paid for just an average accommodation.

Paradise in Paradise

It had been 15 years since I’ve been to Key West and wasn’t sure what to expect from a place I’d never stay before. I’ll spoil the ending. It was the perfect place. The location was quiet, but still only less than a mile walk down Duvall Street to all the things people go to Key West for. It was also walking distance into two incredible restaurants right on the beach. The property itself is breathtaking. When’s the last time you walked into a vacation property and said I want to live here? It was clean. Comfortable. And well equipped in the kitchen and the bathrooms. I’m leaving the best for last. The backyard is like a Hidden paradise that is so well landscaped you feel all alone and private. We were already making plans to stay there again next year. In short, you will not regret spending your vacation at this in this amazing home.

Great place w/ private pool to enjoy Key West!

The house was perfect for 4 of us, the check-in gifts were a nice touch! The house was lovely, perfect location to walk to Duval St, restaurants, etc. The nearby Cuban coffee walk-up window has excellent coffee and bakery items that we walked to daily. We enjoyed not having to drive, we walked everywhere we went in KW from this location. The pool was warm, clean, & the light was working (switch on the LivRm wall) the only thing is the picture shows 3 pool side lounge chairs and there were only 2, just FYI. Only feedback I can suggest is replacing the king size mattress with a new one as this one was quite worn and not very supportive. Also, some extra blankets would be helpful as the bedding is nice, but on the thinner side. The windows let in a lot of light but this could be due to the shutters not being on (noticed them on the side of the house, possibly for repainting or repair)? so if you are a dark-room sleeper, suggest bringing an eye mask. Overall, we loved this home and if you want your own pool and to walk everywhere in Old Town, its perfect. Thank you for having us, we hope to return soon!

Great little place

We had an awesome time. Thanks for the check in goodies. Very close walking to everything Key West. The pool is amazing, centered in a lush palm atmosphere. The house and furnishing were like staying in a home not a rental. I have two critiques. First is that the house is need of a deep cleaning at some point. It was acceptable and I understand it’s a rental. Second, the pool area has lights in and about the palms and shrubs but none work. The pool interior pool light does not work also. Some minor pruning and some fresh mulch and I think all is good to go….. Again we enjoyed the place and will rent again when back in town .
