Disliked: Communication
The property was in a great location, check-in was very easy, and the house itself was spacious and accommodating for our party. However, the property manager scheduled a tour of the home without giving us any notice and allowed guests inside while we were out exploring the town. With all of our personal belongings left in the house, this felt very unsafe and unprofessional.

Would stay again, perfect size and location.

We enjoyed the property, all was perfect and what we expected except the bathrooms could have been a bit cleaner. We weren't sure about some of the sheets so we washed them to be safe.

Great stay...again

This is the 3rd year we have stayed at Bahama House and next year will be #4. Great location close to Duvall, but away from the noise. Very clean and well appointed house with room for our whole family.

Spring Break 2024

The location is definitely the best part of this rental, everything you could need is within a block or 2. Rental could definitely use a couple updates & a good cleaning, but was fine overall.

Loved!

This was our third trip to Key West and by far the best location we've had. Everything we wanted to do was within walking distance (minus the fishing charter from the marina) and the night life on Duval was great. The kids loved swimming in the pool in between activities and there was plenty of space for all six of us. Will definitely book again next time we're down!

Great House-and great location

We had a fabulous time at Marks house. We were a party of six (family) and had plenty of room for everybody. The house is very clean and laid out well. The outdoor courtyard an pool, where a great place to hang out at night. And the location is perfect. Close to Duval Street but far enough away; everything is within walking distance. Would definitely stayhere again, and hope to in the near future Cheers

Fantastic Property !!!

We had a wonderful stay at 522 Bahama . The house is huge and beautifully decorated . Everything was as described and had every amenity needed. The private pool was great to chill in or cool off after a long day in the sun. The best part was location ….. one block away from literally anything you could want or need but yet private and quiet when you didn’t . We will defiantly be back on our next visit to Key West !!!

Very relaxing!

Key west is a great place to visit! Everything is within walking distance or a quick drive to your local destination. The nearby beach was beautiful and easily accessible. Lots of shopping, restaurants, and local bars. I just loved the overall atmosphere of Key West.., very safe, very lively, and very welcoming. The home is located pretty much to everything. However, there are 2 large flights of staircases that are not friendly to those who may unable to walk up. Otherwise, it was perfect for the 8 women who just wanted to relax and getaway. The home was clean and very cute.

Key West Family Reunion

This house worked out great for our family get together of three couples. Each couple had their own full bathroom plus a half bath off the kitchen. The location is ideal for a group since it is right in the center of Key West. It was particularly good being in the middle of everything since we had our elderly parents with us and they appreciated being able to walk to sightsee and restaurants rather than needing rides to everything. It is around the corner from Duval Street. A small grocery store is half a block away and very convenient. We only used our car once the whole week. The house is well appointed and beautifully decorated. The pool was great to use at the end of our busy days. Our only criticism is that the living room furniture, while beautiful was stiff and uncomfortable. Overall a great place and I do recommend it. .

This house is very comfortable, and it is in a great location for walking in Old Town. Fastivo's Food Market on the corner was very handy. Parking in Key West is expensive and a challenge so we were grateful for the assigned parking space. My husband and I came with another couple.Having each bedroom with its own bath was huge. We enjoyed cooking breakfast in the chef's kitchen and cooling off in the pool after a day of sightseeing. My recommendations: this house, Fort Zachary Taylor State Park, the Hemingway House, and Truman's Little White House. I hope to come back again.

Charming

My family of four had plenty of space in this lovely home on Bahama Street between Fleming and Southard, just one short block away from the shops and restaurants of Duval Street. Check-in was easy, and the checkout to-do list was not terribly long (strip the sheets and start a load of towels). Beds are comfy, and the small pool turned out to be a nice amenity for our group. We enjoyed being there.

a perfect stay

This property is amazingly situated and very well appointed. We have stayed here several times, and it does not disappoint in any respect. The convenience of location (and parking) is amazing and cannot be beat. It's enough off the main street to be comfortably quiet, but you can still enjoy the live music at a level which does not impede conversation while outside. Super clean with high end finishes. The private pool is mostly shaded, which is wonderfully refreshing after being out and about.
