Check in and communication was excellent. Issue with the internet was taken seriously and resolved with persistent effort on the part of the host. The proximity to everything was perfect especially if you are looking to enjoy the vibrant nightlife of Duval Street.

Amazing owner and management. Very responsive and courteous!

We enjoyed 2 months at the Shipwreck Suite during peak winter season in KW. The location is absolutely amazing! When we had some issues with climate control during the really hot days the owner bent over backwards to make sure we and our puppies stayed cool and comfortable. Highly recommend this spot especially for big weekends on Duval with parades or fantasy fest.

Great apartment! Large living area and kitchen. Balcony right on Duval St so great for people watching. Hosts were very responsive to all my questions - over and above responsive. 2nd bedroom in loft was not realistic for us - “ladder-like” access is real. Not good for drunks or old people, or both. lol. Our guests used the pull-out couch to sleep in living room. No problem.

Key West has been home to me for more than a decade, and hospitality has been a big part of my life throughout that time. I’ve had the opportunity to work in and around many of Key West’s most historic and beloved properties, giving me a deep appreciation for the island and the unique experience it offers visitors. I love helping guests experience Key West beyond the typical tourist itinerary. I’m always happy to share recommendations for favorite restaurants, hidden gems, beaches, sunset spots, and things to do around the island. Whether you’re here to explore Old Town, enjoy the nightlife, spend time on the water, or simply slow down and enjoy island life, I’m here to help make your Key West stay comfortable, memorable, and easy.

Why they chose this property

The apartment is also perfectly positioned for exploring Old Town on foot. Walk south to the Southernmost Point and the Atlantic Ocean, north to Mallory Square and the waterfront, or wander through the historic streets surrounding the Hemingway Home, Key West Lighthouse, Truman Little White House, and other iconic landmarks. What makes the property especially memorable is the large balcony overlooking Duval Street. It gives you a front row seat to the sights and sounds of Key West while providing your own comfortable space to relax and people watch. For travelers who want to park the car and experience Key West by foot, enjoy the energy of Duval Street, and have a refreshing pool available when it’s time to unwind, Shipwreck Suite offers an unbeatable Old Town location.
