There are brick walkways, and a 40' x 10' sun deck, including a stainless steel propane barbecue, chaise lounges for sunbathing and relaxing; and tables and chairs for dining.

EXCELLENT LOCATION
The house is located in Old Town Key West at the corner of Thomas and Angela Streets - (2) blocks west of the center of Duval Street in one of the oldest sections of Key West; (4) blocks east of Fort Zachary Taylor State Park/Beach, the best beach and picnic area in Key West. The gated compound is within easy walking or biking distance to everything in Old Town Key West, Duval Street, and the best entertainment and dining on the island.

CHICKENS & ROOSTERS
The City of Key West protects chickens and roosters, and considers them as part of the history and charm of Key West. As a result, Key West and many of the islands throughout the Florida Keys have free-range chickens and roosters. You will definitely see and hear chickens and roosters during your stay in Key West. Some visitors to Key West love them, and some visitors hate them - personally, I enjoy them best roasted, with plantains, and black beans and rice!

CRITTERS
Also, please remember that you are in the tropics and most life forms typically thrive in the tropics. Please don' t be surprised or alarmed if you see a lizard, or an insect.

Great Accommodations and Excellent Location!

My husband and I celebrated our 19 year anniversary at Bahama Gardens and stayed in the Cigar House. The rental is only two blocks from Duval and the accomodations were very well appointed with everything that we needed. Thank you again Steven and John for your hospitality and helping to make our anniversary vacation a memorable one!

Very nice house and property, ideal location, parking, and arrangement

House was clean and well kept, pool was lovely. Beds were firm but comfortable, ample towels provided (for 6 people for 3 nights), kitchen was well maintained, and access was simple. Only downside was some very noisy chickens next door (although they are protected and super common in Key West) crowing very early, but earplugs solved the problem. Also some communication issues as some maintenance people arrived unannounced during the stay, but overall a great trip and would stay again.

As part of the local flavor of Key West, the City of Key West protects chickens and roosters, and considers them as part of the history and charm of Key West.

Some visitors to Key West love them, and some visitors hate them -personally, I enjoy them best roasted, with plantains, and black beans and rice! That said, seriously, it's also an unfortunate part of Key West and Cuban history that some people raise roosters to illegally fight them, and to illegally gamble on the fights. Because the City of Key West protects the chickens and roosters and allows them free range, and protects people's rights to cage, raise and sell them, it would be naive to think some people are not taking advantage of the law and are raising them for illegal cockfighting and betting - and making a lot of money! Unfortunately sometimes our system of laws protects the law breakers and punishes the law abiding citizens - and chickens and roosters!

Great time with Friends!

Location was close to everything happening on Duval, and we walked or biked everywhere which was perfect. The street is busy and loud. More roosters than what I am used to in previous stays in KW. Sleep was an issue so I never felt rested. Sharing a pool and patio space with other families was a challenge and we found that we didn't have the space that we needed for our people. It was New Years Eve so we were there to celebrate and have fun and we did that!

Great Place To Stay

My family rented this house for a week in January 2010. We loved the house-it accomodates 8 perfectly-you can walk just about anywhere from the location. Nice pool & jacuzzi (even though it was too cold for us to swim !) I suggest that you bring towells for the beach, since the house in only equuipped with bath towells. Otherwise, it had everything we needed.

About the host

Hosted by Steven Justi

Host profile image
I travel as often as possible, with my beautiful partner - we always seem to gravitate to water and interesting places off the beaten path. We enjoy historic settings, renovating old buildings, good people, and a nice bottle of wine (...or two).

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is alive, dynamic, and surrounded by Key West History - unquestionably the most intact Old Town Key West neighborhood on the island. There are excellent restaurants within walking distance, and Duval Street is only two blocks from the property - close enough, yet far enough away! Ft. Zachary Taylor, located only two blocks to the west of the property, is a National Historic Park and boasts the nicest beach with the best sunsets on the island.

What makes this property unique

Local Key West character is preserved. Authentic Key West experience. Ideal for family gatherings, of a group of friends getting together.
