Beautiful complex

It is true what is said about this unit. If you like pink. Then this is the place to be. The complex was great. Nice pool, no fighting for chairs and clean. Wish the sliders had screens to get some fresh air. Unit was cleaned and Henry is very responsive.

Family getaway!!

Rented Henry’s Penthouse for a getaway with son and daughter in law. Was wonderful to have the 2 full bathrooms and 2 king bedrooms. The kitchen was probably the best stocked of any VRBO I have rented (and there have been many). Henry was kind enough to check in with us to make sure all was well with us and offer his assistance as needed. We never needed any extra help since everything was pretty much perfect. If we ever get back to Key West we will stay here again!! Thanks Henry!!

Great place and good security

The condo was spacious. Well furnished. What I thought was great was the long balcony that each bedroom had access to. Was nice to sit out there at night with the sea breeze blowing and visit with good friends.

Great condo

Enjoyed our stay, large condo, exceptionally large deck and very clean. Only glitch is that upon checking in the directions are not exactly clear. You check in by talking with security through a speaker inside one end of the building and then need to go to another speaker at the other end of the building to get directions as to where to drop off the sign-in sheet. There is no signage as to the building number, but the address is clear, just need to know east and west ends of the building, again not marked. Otherwise, our 5 nights were wonderful and we enjoyed being near the beach, away from the downtown congestion and appreciated the security of a parking garage. Henry was also very responsive to questions.

This was a beautiful large condo!! The location was away from the business but still close enough to enjoy the Duvall crowd if you wanted to The pool and property were top notch. And the neighbors were friendly Henry was a joy to work with. Great communication!

Very comfortable and spacious

We spent a week with another couple at Henry’s Penthouse and had a great time. The location is great for beach activities, although due to the sargassum issue the ocean wasn’t really accessible. The kitchen is really big and equipped to cook full meals if you want to. The living area is very comfortable. The unit worked well for two couples.

Great property! Very clean and great communication!

Henry does a great job of communicating. We knew exactly what to do when we got there and also knew what was expected of us. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. This is not beachfront...there is a short walk down the street to get there but it is not too far. We rented a golf cart and took advantage of the parking garage with a convenient spot close to the elevator. The building is dated but the condo was clean and the tropical decor reminded you that you were on vacation. Would stay here again!

Key West Pink

If you like the color pink - this is your place! It was definitely a Key West vibe in this condo. Henry was awesome and gave us ideas and advice on where to go and what to do! We were there with another couple from our family. The condo was well appointed with many extras for the beach and pool that we were able to use. There were enough appliances, utensils, etc. in the kitchen.We loved the pool and beach area around the condo building. The sunrises were spectacular!It was a little far from downtown, but manageable for a long walk, drive, or uber/lyft. Unfortunately, there was a lot of construction on our road during our stay - so that was noisy. Also, it is a bummer for the couple that are in the second bedroom because the wall does not go all the way to the ceiling. So if they wanted to go to bed earlier, we had to lower all of the lights and the volume of the TV so as not to bother them. One other item that could be taken down are some of the mirrors - yikes!

Nice Place to Stay

Property was exactly as advertised, although the view of the beach was somewhat tangential. Having a reserved parking spot in the garage right next to the elevator was very convenient. The location wasn't really in walking distance of anything of interest, but nothing was more than 10 minutes away by car. The apartment itself was well-furnished and everything worked as it should. The only warning is that the second bedroom is separated from the living room by a wall that doesn't go all the way to the ceiling, so some level of privacy might be compromised, although it wasn't an issue for us. We'd certainly consider staying here again when we come back to Key West.
