About this property

Welcome to "Shipwrecked in Paradise"! Historic Key West Eyebrow House with private pool..... ONE block to Duval, the Hemingway House, and the Lighthouse. Four blocks to the Southernmost Point. Our home is full of Key West charm. It was built by shipbuilders in the Classical Revival style called an Eyebrow House that created an awning to block the harsh sun in the late 1800's. Dade County Pine was used throughout, giving it a "boat" and "Key Westy" feel.... or "shiplap" as we call it today!

Newly purchased and newly renovated in August 2020. New furniture, new bedding, new linens, fresh paint, new bathroom in master, new outdoor furniture.

Live like a local in this renovated, private, historic Key West home located in the heart of Old Town near the corner of Truman and Whitehead, one block off Duval. We are at the quiet end of Truman where it turns into a one-way street. Some of the best restaurants in town are within 2 blocks: Santiago's Bodega, Blue Heaven, Moondog Cafe, Nine One Five, The Green Parrot. The beach at Ft. Zachary Taylor is a quick bike ride away.

This private home offers 3 bedrooms, all with queen beds, and 3 en suite bathrooms. There is a bedroom on the main level and 2 bedrooms upstairs, each with their own staircase leading up to it on opposite ends of the home for complete privacy. There is a large eat-in kitchen with seating for 6... or enjoy your meal outdoors by the pool. The living area has plenty of seating with all new furniture and a pull-out sectional sofa with a queen bed. There are TV's mounted in the living room and each of the 3 bedrooms. Cable and internet are provided.

The outdoor area is a true paradise. Enjoy the heated pool with waterfall and jets, 2 chaise lounges for sunning, and a dining table for 8. There is a private balcony off the upstairs bedroom and an inviting front porch for watching the comings and goings of Key West.

Want to get out on the beautiful waters surrounding Key West? The Florida Keys are home to the only living coral reef system in the United States and the third largest in the world. Sea Monkey Ocean Adventures offers private trips to snorkel at the reef, cruise around Key West, visit a sandbar, or enjoy a sunset cruise.... or any combination of these activities... See our website at seamonkeyoceanadventures.com or inquire for questions. We offer $150 off a half day charter with your booking.

The house is rented monthly beginning the first of the month. Please inquire if you have questions about Key West Monthly Vacation rentals. City ordinance requires monthly stays on most homes. It is often more economical to rent a house for a month than a hotel for a week or two. You have more space, a private pool, the ability to cook in, and space for family and friends to visit during your stay and share the cost.

Add Florida Sales Tax and Accommodations Tax at 12.5%
Add a one time cleaning fee of $225

Loved everything!! Can't wait to come back!!

We had the best month visiting Key West thanks to Marla and this perfect house! The house was so roomy and accommodating for us and our friends. We absolutely loved our gorgeous yard and pool, not to mention the front porch in the morning for coffee. The location couldn't have been better for walking to Duval, buoy, Southernmost Point, Fort Zach, Truman Annex and all the quaint restaurants and shops nearby. Marla and Stewart were absolutely amazing when it came to helping us with anything we needed at the house! They made sure all of our needs were met and immediately came and changed lightbulbs, tv assistance that we needed. We had the best time and are so sad to leave this place. I would give it a 10 star if I could and would rent from Marla again in a heartbeat. The only downfall is I know she is booked out for a very long time but hoping some day I can return and stay in the same place!!

We enjoyed everything about our stay!

We stayed here for the month of March. We thought the house was perfect both inside and out. The house is well laid out, decorated nicely, and equipped with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. The yard and pool area are situated and set up so that you can enjoy either sun or shade which meant it was our “go to” spot whenever we weren’t out and about. The house is located just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Duval to be quiet, yet a short walk from many great restaurants and attractions. Although we didn’t have any problems during our stay, Marla was quick to respond to the few questions that we did have. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks Marla!

A relaxed month in Key West

We had a fantastic stay at Bahama Village in Key West during the month of January. The house was clean, comfortable, and so well equipped—plenty of dishes, pots/pans, small appliances, glassware, Tupperware, extra sheets, pillows, and towels. Every bedroom has TV and the whole house had great wi-fi service (even out into the yard). The fenced yard was a perfect private hangout spot for outdoor dining, cooking, and swimming day or evening. Best of all is the location—just two blocks from Duval, but on the quieter, more residential end. We walked the dog in Truman Park almost every night to catch the sunset and watch the daily cruise ship departures. The house layout was perfect for hosting family and friends throughout the month—privacy when you need it, otherwise great spaces for hanging out together. The only complaint is that I can’t book again next January because it’s already committed. I’ve asked to be put on the waitlist ;-) Thank you, Marla! And Captain Stewart too.
