About this property

Coco's Poolside Retreat

Coco’s Poolside Retreat is a cheerful three-story townhome tucked inside a private, gated mini-compound in Old Town Key West. Designed as a creative complement to its neighbor, the Flower Power House, this laid-back retreat is situated in a tropical wonderland of a yard and walks right out to a huge, sparkling 40’ swimming pool shared with only two other homes—making it feel both social yet private. With porches on the first and second floors looking right out over the gardens, there’s always a sunny spot to sip morning coffee or evening cocktails after exploring the best of Key West.

Inside, bright island colors, handmade art, and whimsical details create a fun, welcoming vibe across all three levels. The main floor’s open living area is nice for gathering, with a fully equipped kitchen and half bath. Upstairs, the second floor has a queen bedroom and a separate sitting room with a queen sleeper sofa, both opening onto a wide porch with views of the pool and yard. The top floor has two more bedrooms—one with a king bed and another with two twins (convertible to a king)—plus a Jack and Jill bathroom, making it easy for families or friends to spread out.

Coco’s Poolside Retreat feels like a perfect hideaway set off the street and hidden behind the big white gate and lush trees, yet you’re right in the White Street Gallery District. Most of your neighbors are local, full time residents making for a peaceful vibe, but a short walk or quick bike ride gets you to the beaches, art galleries, cafés, and local favorites like Salute on the Beach. It’s a perfect home base for guests who love a tropical, local feel, a bit of whimsy and a great pool. Book Coco’s Poolside Retreat to soak up Key West’s colorful, laid-back spirit, and look into booking the Flower Power House as well, for the complete Family Reunion Compound if the whole crew is coming along!

PAYMENT: Payment for the rental will be processed outside of VRBO according to the terms of your rental agreement (sent for review upon reservation). Payments by credit card are subject to an additional 2.95% merchant processing fee.

Ray, Thank you so much for choosing to spend your Key West vacation with us at our Coco's Poolside Retreat! It was a pleasure hosting you for your time on the island and we are so happy to hear you had a delightful experience at our home. We appreciate your thoughtful feedback from your stay with us and are happy to report we have already made improvements based on your input! The queen mattress on the second floor has been replaced with a brand new luxe mattress. We have also increased the frequency of both our landscaping and our pool services, each company now comes to the property twice weekly to address the yard and ensure the pool is in tip top shape for our guests. This is supplemented by our prep team who also comes by the property to prepare the inside and outside for your stay on the day of checkin. (: We hope our remedies of your notes give you peace of mind and that we have another opportunity to host you in the future so you can see the improvements for yourself! Thank you again Ray, VHKW values you and your feedback ensures we are constantly improving for our guests. Warm Regards, Vacation Homes of Key West

Didn't get the code information at 3:45, had to call to get the information to get into the unit. The pool was not clean leaves were everywhere we had to clean it ourselves. Also I paid for pool heating and there were 2 other units that were using the pool. Why did I get charged for heating the pool?
Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2026
Response from VrboOwner on 20 Mar 2026
Thank you for your feedback—we’re so sorry for the frustration you experienced. The access code is set to automatically populate in the guest portal at 3:45pm on the day of arrival, so we apologize for the miscommunication and any inconvenience caused when you had to call to receive it. Regarding the pool, our area can experience very windy tropical weather at times, which can cause leaves and foliage to collect quickly—even shortly after cleaning. The pool is professionally serviced at least twice a week to keep it in great condition, but we understand how this may have impacted your experience. As for the pool heat, because the pool is part of a shared compound, the heating service is activated for the entire pool rather than per individual unit. Each reservation contributes to the cost of maintaining that consistent heated temperature for all guests to enjoy. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a smoother experience in the future.

Our group of six enjoyed the pool area. The Jack and Jill bathroom doors did not lock and the toilets ran all the time. But that was the only two things we could really complaint about. The management company was great to deal with.

We enjoyed our stay at Coco’s. Communication could be improved around the pool. Myself and several other parties thought the pool was going to be private. I liked meeting the other parties but others may not. It also may be time for some cosmetic upgrades. It was a great choice for our family. Thank you for everything’
