Key West Wabi Sabi - Authentic Downtown Cottage w Pool - Steps Off Duval

Key West Wabi Sabi is a quintessential 1930s cottage that embodies the beauty and simplicity of island-life charm. If you’re looking to be in the heart of Old Town yet want your own pool and parking space, 506 Bahama is a perfect choice for your trip. You’ll be right off Duval Street, directly across from Fausto’s Food Palace for groceries and necessities, but tucked away enough for that real vacation recharge. This thoughtfully renovated retreat preserves the home’s original character and vintage Key West vibe while embracing an ideal indoor-outdoor feel. The open-concept great room and kitchen lead seamlessly to a private deck and pool framed by happy foliage and a hand-painted mural. Our guests love making Key West memories here and often rebook Key West Wabi Sabi.

The home offers four bedrooms and sleeps up to 8 people. Each room has its own vibe: a lofted master suite with a king-sized bed, a vintage vanity, a split unit A/C and full bathroom; another large downstairs room with a comfy king bed and full bath; a cozy third bedroom with a trundle bed and a half bath; and a fourth bedroom with another king bed and its own bathroom. The cottage is great for gathering yet offers enough private space for everyone to find their own mid-vacation reprieve if needed.

506 Bahama is a fantastic homebase as you explore the best of Key West. It’s a lovely blend of ease, simplicity, and island charm. Again, the location and thus the walkability of this home really can’t be beat if you’re looking to make the most of the general Duval Street excitement! Come home from an afternoon out and about to enjoy your personal pool with plenty of lounge space, or relax on your classic Key West front porch. We look forward to hosting you and making sure your stay at Key West Wabi Sabi is one you’ll love.
Love the location but need different accommodations? See if our neighboring properties Down Island Digs or Pavillion Villa have what you’re looking for!

Cute, comfy home with Old Key West character. Very clean and well appointed. The home and fenced pool area is quiet/secluded even though it’s just a block from Duval. Has a washer/dryer, gas grill and beds are comfortable. Would definitely stay again!

Our Stay at Wabi Sabi

We recently stayed at the Wabi Sabi property in Key West, FL. Everything was great with our stay and we thoroughly enjoyed being close to Duval Street but just far enough away to be a quiet experience. We highly recommend this property if you are looking to stay in Key West.
