My husband and I have stayed here numerous times. We bring our Yorkies and are treated so well. The units have just the right amount of size and privacy to meet our needs. We will be back.
This was our second time to Key West, but our first time at Center Court. It will definitely not be our last! Location was perfect as we did not feel we needed a car, we were able to walk everywhere we wanted/needed to go. The property itself was amazing: so clean and well-maintained and had everything that we needed or could’ve asked for. Naomi was responsive and so accommodating. This property made our vacation perfect. Don’t hesitate to book!
I am a reformed RN who decided I liked caring for people on the wellness end of the health spectrum! I renovated/decorated/loved my properties since starting Center Court-Historic Inn & Cottages in 1994. I moved to Key West from Tampa in 1984 and love everything about Key West! I enjoy going out in my boat to the back country, taking care of animals and loving life.
Why they chose this property
Center Street is between Duval and Simonton Streets, just off Truman Ave. This area is approved for Transient Rentals (nightly rentals) and I realized the value when I purchased it in 1984. At that time, I was the first person to move onto Center Street and start renovating...it is perfectly located for everything you would love to do in Key West.
What makes this property unique
My properties are all historic, from the 1880's in an area that was initially inhabited by Bahamian settlers. Truman Avenue was once the demarcation line dividing Key West from Monroe County. Superb location, close to everything you want to do and see but on a quiet 2 block lane so very quiet, yet around the corner from the fun of Duval Street.
