The house was perfect for our group - it was close enough to walk to everything but far enough off the main area to be quiet & relaxing. The pool was great for late night dips after partying it up on Duval! & the best part was Boots, the neighborhood cat, who was friendly & gave us all the lovings.

Let me tell you this place is awesome.Super close to downtown Key West and local shopping. It’s across the street from the coolest graveyard. The cottage and all of its amenities were amazing. Karen was super sweet and helpful.We made friends with the previous house cat, Boots! He greeted me every morning while I had my coffee. This place made us feel right at home and we can’t wait to return.

Jane, the host and Karen, the property manager were welcoming and helpful. Communication was excellent with both of them. The cottage is clean and lovely. Clearly there was much care put into the remodel. The neighborhood was central and safe. We walked everywhere. The backyard was a nice sanctuary with a little pool. It was too cool to get into, but I did stick my feet in. Refreshing. We’d love to stay here again next time we go to Key West.

Oasis of Calm

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Paradise Found. The house was a charming, comfortable oasis to return to after enjoying the islands bars, beaches, and familiar haunts on foot, bicycle and scooter. Of all the places we have stayed in Key West, this was perhaps the best situated, well appointed, and most homelike. We also enjoyed the occasional visit from Boots, or new kitty friend. Jane, thank you for everything!

Paradise Found! Wonderful Key West home!

The house was perfect! We stayed for 5 weeks. Very comfortable home - quiet neighbors - across from cemetery! Wonderful spaces - seating out front; screened in porch; extremely comfortable living room furniture; big screen tv; nice back deck with pool. Bed was very comfortable. We are booked for next year! Host was very accessible - any concerns we had were answered right away.

We love the neighborhood near the cemetery. Quiet. Obviously. The house was very clean, and the beds were comfy.You have to pay for parking in the driveway. Car or no car. I thought that was strange. House needs a little TLC and small repairs, but very charming and warm. Keysey

Paradise Found

Paradise Found is truly, paradise found. The property has been remodeled nicely. The house has everything you need for your stay. The property is within walking distance to everything Old Town has to offer. The communication between the owners and property manager was excellent. The residents across the street are very quiet and did not disturb. The outdoor resident black/white cat is very friendly and appropriates its head and ears scratched. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

Comfortable Gem in an Excellent Location

Paradise Found is all we hoped for. Beautifully renovated but still lots of character throughout. The bedrooms were comfortable and the couch in the living room was nap-worthy. The backyard is lovely, the pool perfect for a few hot days we had. The front porch was also very comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need and if there's anything missing the property manager is very responsive. One small glitch related to the unique drawer refrigerator and freezer - if the drawer is not properly closed it starts to beep and should turn off when the drawer is closed but three different times the beep didn't stop. Fortunately, the property manager was able to take care of it for us. The location in Old Town is perfect, close to everything but quiet and residential. We walked and biked everywhere we needed. I hope we can return to Paradise Found every winter.

Paradise Found

My best friend from college and I have been friends for 30+ years. We decided on a girls trip to Key West and wanted a cute little cottage for the week. We found exactly what we were looking for and as my friend said to me “this is exactly what I pictured for us!” Jane and Karen were very communicative and welcoming. Paradise Found was nothing short of well, paradise! We truly felt like we were living island life from sitting out back near the pool under the palm trees, listening to the local rooster (who we named Fred), to throwing on a pair of flip flops and walking up to the local Cuban cafe for a morning cortadito. The cottage was comfortable and it had everything we needed and what we didn’t have, we were a short drive to Publix market and several other shops. We were also just a few blocks walk to Duvall St. where we spent our days shopping and visiting the sites, such as Hemingway’s house and the Southernmost Point, and where we spent our evenings listening to live music and having fun at various bars. Overall, our stay was fantastic and we both agreed we’d be back to stay at Paradise Found again next year! Kim & Greta
