About this property

Colony Sunset- Bright and airy cottage in the heart of old town Key West

Located in The Colony, a secluded, gated enclave just steps from Duval Street, Colony Sunset is a colorful and relaxing retreat. Walk up the flagstone path and enter the home through the vivid and cheerful living space, accented with cerulean blue walls and splashes of tropical art. A vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and huge transom windows that extend all the way to the tip of the roof add a bright and airy feeling to the cozy space. Just through the French doors lies a private deck for sunning, relaxing and al fresco dining.

The fully appointed kitchen is attached to the living area and features a sit-down bar, charming open shelving and a bright color scheme.

The bedroom is painted in soothing blue tones and features cathedral ceilings, a king size bed, and flat screen television.

Just outside the front door is a porch with Adirondack chairs for enjoying a morning Cuban coffee or a twilight glass of wine amongst the palm trees. The huge Colony swimming pool, which is shared with other residents, is located just steps away. Beaches, shopping, and award-winning restaurants are just a short walk or bike ride from your front door.

If you are staying with a large group, please note that Rent Key West Vacations has two other similar properties to rent within this compound- Colony Calypso and Colony Poolside.

Bedding: 1 King, 1 sleeper sofa (full)

Perfect little cottage
We would definitely stay at this cottage again. Decorated darling and very clean. It’s a quaint little colony and everyone we met were extremely nice and helpful. Since it was our first time visiting the Keys we appreciated the assistance. The only issue is parking but we rented a golf cart and parking is difficult anywhere in the Keys so that can’t be helped
