About this property

Tranquility by AvantStay | Close to Duval St w/ BBQ & Shared Pool

Settled in a small community in Old Town, only a short walk to Duval Street, this lovely cottage offers everything you can expect from a perfect Key West rental.
This charming cottage is full of color and creativity, perfect for a couple looking to be close to all the Key West has to offer.

Fun collectibles and the quirkiness of this cottage bring a unique feel that keeps bringing visitors back to Key West. As you enter this whimsical cottage through the glass french doors on the front porch you will find cozy furnishings in the living area and a bright and open kitchen. A half bath and sleeper sofa on the main level allow extra space for an unexpected guest.

Upstairs you will find a loft-style bedroom in cheery colors and a private bathroom to make the suite complete.

The cottage also has a private backyard that is perfect for sipping your morning coffee or unwinding in a tranquil setting with a margarita at the end of a busy day sightseeing. The propane-style BBQ grill is perfect for cooking up a great meal and relaxing at home for the night. The shared pool is just steps from your front door, perfect for an afternoon dip in the cooling waters, sunning poolside, or relaxing with a book in the shade.

Nestled in the intimate gated compound known as The Colony Suites, just 2 short blocks from Duval Street, you could not ask for a more ideal location.
Can accommodate four guests, three comfortably. No dishwasher.

Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous. It embodies a clash of the past and the present, and every building (including this rental) in Key West reflects this eclectic ambiance!

AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!
