About this property

Orchid Oasis - Only Minutes from Smather's and Rest Beaches!

Everyone enjoys time in Key West, and staying at The Orchid Oasis take it to a new level. We are a family of "Conchs" that have been born and raised in Key West for seven generations, and we look forward to welcoming you to stay in our home.

This home is located just minutes from everything that's great about Key West. You can walk or ride a bike to both Smather's Beach or Higgs Beach in under five minutes, and you're just two minutes from White Street pier where you can watch the most amazing sunsets you'll ever see!

Our pictures show you all the great aspects of this home so be sure to look through them to get a good feel for the house and the layout.

We offer all the comforts you need for your stay in paradise including WiFi, flat screen TVs, laundry, lovely and inviting pool with waterfalls and ample parking space. There is a 4 person maximum limit to this home (NO EXCEPTIONS).

This home is in a quiet area of Key West and is not recommended for parties or group celebrations. We ask you to please be respectful of the neighbors and keep the noise level to a minimum.

We can also provide home cooked meals for an additional fee! Want authentic Cuban roast pork with rice and black beans and the best Key Lime Pie on the island? Or maybe a custom made batch of Key Lime Fudge made by the woman who invented it? Or Key West Pink Shrimp & Cheese Grits? WE CAN DO THEM ALL!

This property has a ONE MONTH minimum stay requirement.

NOTE: We are VERY selective about who we rent to! This home is right next to our primary residence so we only rent to couples or groups of four or less. If you are coming to party, be loud and make a mess please don't even inquire. We want tenants who are going to treat this home like they're own.

Great Place, Great People

We had a great stay. Walking distance to the beach and sunrise/sunset. Great kitchen fully stocked for a long term stay. Great people next door who own the property. If anything went wrong or we needed anything it was nice that they were next door. The pool was great. Thanks for a great stay!

Tranquility among the tourists!

My stay at enchanting Orchid Oasis was awesome! From inquiry to booking there was plenty of helpful information, excellent communication & good spirit. Upon arrival the welcome & hospitality was of Southern Charm, conch style! The zen-like nature of the property was what you dream your vacation should be & it was. The location on KW was primo. Spectacular sunrises & breathtaking sunsets, all minutes away. The spotless, extremely well stocked home had everything you could need & was full of stylish creature comforts. The meticulous attention to detail & amenities were those of a five star resort hotel, if not better. I truly felt pampered & spoiled. The luxurious bedding, beautifully designed bedrooms, gourmet kitchen, cozy & comfortable living area, along with the resort-like private pool was more than I imagined. I highly recommend this cozy comfortable Oasis near the beach. You don't even need to leave the property to have a wonderful vacation, but then - there's Key West at your fingertips. Whether walking to the beach or seaside dining, visiting the nearby attractions, tourist hots spots, enjoying casual or fine dining or enjoying the KW nightlife - it's all close & convenient. I am extremely grateful to have found this property & had this wonderful experience. Special heartfelt thanks & giant kudos to the hosts whose on-site support & graciousness were of concierge quality. I can enthusiastically recommend you grab this experience. It's a definite return for me!
