Please read reviews. People have left and judge for yourself..
Key West is old and historic when
The homes were built-in this area. Parking was always on the sides of the street and is FREE.
A great way to see the island however, is by bicycle plus there are so many different kinds of vehicles you can rent it is amazing.

SO.........

Come splash in the surf. Come soak up the heat of the Sun. Come feel salt water mist on your skin as you take a sunset sail! Come listen to the beat of the reggae drums. Come feel the loose sand in your feet as you sway to its rhythm. Feel alive and vibrant.
CARPE DIEM!.
You will be staying at Varela Street Retreat. Only a beautiful half-mile walk from the beach.
My place has a full kitchen with full size refrigerator and stove. A complete dining area and a living room/bedroom combination and bathroon. You also have your own large private patio.The 1/2 mile walk straight down the street to the public beach is lovely.

Varela St. Retreat is located in historic Old Town away from the bustle on famous Duval Street. It is only half a mile to the closest beach and a 7 minute walk to Duval Street. It is less that one block to the White Street art gallery district, the grocery, the laundry, the largest city park,restaurants, shops, bike rental shop and more.
Go ahead, kick your feet up and make yourself at home! You are about to enter Varela St. Retreat. Here you will meander back a secluded stone pathway to reach your very own private, spacious stone patio complete with lush overhanging tropical vegetation.

await you. You can dine out and soak up the warm inviting Florida sunshine,chat with your friends or just catch up on some reading.

Host was excellent with communications, sincere and really made an effort with keeping us informed every step of our stay. 10/10 The rental wasn’t just for us. It’s so small. The bathroom was painfully small. The bathroom was of concern for us. The toilet area of 25” wall to wall. My husband couldn’t use & had to walk to service station. Highly disappointing! Shower was also very small measuring 24”x35” in diameter. There were no shelves to place toiletries. The area between the sink and wall to toilet is tight at only 18”. The bed, queen, is placed between two walls that doesn’t allow no room to walk around so one must crawl on & off bed. This was so annoying. Parking is nonexistent. There’s only street parking and availability is minimal. When carrying groceries, or luggage, it’s inconvenient to the max! There is a small courtyard out back and that is nice. I’d say this rental is for college kids who’s use to dorm life. Highly recommend anyone over 50 to seek other places or anyone who has mobility issues or of larger stature. I do believe it’s a good rental just not for us. Host tries to accommodate and neighborhood is great. Sandy’s has the BEST coffee and a very short walk. Streets are narrow enough to be more less one way due to parking on both sides. Rarely can two vehicles fit. I mentioned some improvements, took photos and sent to host. She’s awesome and wished I’d met her. Our stay was memorable.

The value for Key West was excellent. We stayed 5 nights for what our friends paid for 1. It's older, but that is a lot of the charm. Staying in the neighborhood was a completely different vibe. We were able to walk to everywhere, including a great grocery store and we walked to Mass at a beautful Catholic basilica. We had a flight change and host was extremely flexible. Communication was extremely quick. Duval St. was a quick easy walk which saved so much on Ubers. We would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay..the little guest house was cute and exactly what it advertised. The bed could have been a little softer and a little more cleaning in the unit wouldnt hurt either..the only other thing, is there was not enough bike parking. Overall everything was good, location, noise, food etc.

This was the cutest apartment! Not sure what all the comments were about regarding the bathroom. I found the shower water hot the bathroom was plenty spacious and I applied my makeup at the sink. Plenty of room. The kitchen is well equipped. My only suggestion if you do not like a firm mattress bring or buy a pillow topper. Also, I had no problem getting in and out of the bed. This apt is located behind and attached to another home which is very typical. My friends owned a home behind but not attached 3 houses down from our rental. We had no problem parking. I was very Leary given the price and was amazed on what I found.
