Petite but perfect!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Caroline’s Cottage. The house is small but everything is laid out perfectly. All the neighbors are very kind and welcoming. Our favorite times were relaxing on the covered porch. While we could not park our car right in front of the house, there was almost always a place to park on the street. There was only one occasion that we had to park a few blocks away. The owners live nearby and were quick to address any concerns that I had (of which there was only two!).

Sultry stay
Advertising a hot tub that hasn’t been here for years according to neighbor. Parking is an issue. Water pressure is low. Surrounded by a junkyard. Area needs to be cleaned up. The neighbors are nice and 1/2 block to Duval makes it convenient. But it still gets a low rating.

This is the most fabulous house. It is just off duval and short walk to all the best bars. It was extremely clean and had everything we could ask for. The neighbors are friendly and make you feel like local after 1 night. The chickens and cats complete the key west atmosphere. Already getting ready to book it next year!
