About this property

Duval Square Retreat: A beautiful condo steps from the action

Duval Square Retreat is In the heart of Old Town. Duval Square is located at the "artistic" and quieter end of Duval Street. This recently upgraded unit is tastefully decorated with design elements from around the world. The first floor offers a well- equipped kitchen, and an open living and dining concept, French doors to a private balcony and a half bath powder room.

Upstairs, the main bedroom suite has a private balcony and ensuite bath. The second second bedroom also has an ensuite bath.

There is central air conditioning and Wi-Fi internet. The complex's shared pool and sunning area overlooks world famous Duval Street. On the street level you will find a unique tree lined courtyard with restaurants and shops. While gated garage parking is provided here, all you really need is a bicycle for your main mode of transportation as you can walk or bike everywhere from Duval Square.

Bedding: 2 Queen
A shared, sun-drenched, rooftop pool and pavilion are just steps from your door.

This is an unbeatable location offering easy pedestrian access to dozens of shops and restaurants, the Ernest Hemingway Home Museum and other notable local attractions, and of course the serene, turquoise ocean that the island is famous for.

Gather your friends and family together and book a Key West vacation you will never forget at Duval Square Penthouse.

Beds: 3 Kings, 2 Twins, 1 Sleeper Sofa
Duval Square is a charming community with shops and restaurants downstairs and secure, quiet, private residences, pool and pavilion upstairs.

When you enter the home you will find a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, spacious living room and a convenient half bath. French doors let in the natural sunshine and open to the private back deck with dining table and chairs perfect for outdoor entertaining.

On the second floor, you will find 2 bedroom suites, each with their own private bathroom and an additional private balcony off the main suite.

Great Location

Duval Square is a great location. The condo is laid out perfectly for couples sharing space with the two en suites. The rental company provides some convenient basics like hand soap, shower soap, laundry pods etc so you don’t have to purchase things just to use a little. The pool/rooftop area is a nice feature. Parking is great.

Owner

Owner apparently was monitoring the temperature of the unit and called the office for them to let us know to plug-in the window air conditioner in the master bedroom (which by the way, my husband only unplugged because he wanted to plug in his cell phone) and told us not to decrease the temperature below 70. That’s very concerning that he is monitoring our stay.

The 2 bedroom, 2 and 1/2 bath was very clean and spacious! There was an abundance of paper products and bath towels in both bathrooms! The decor is very interesting.... an African theme! Overall, it was a great property to rent!

Quiet Duval St

This property was perfect for our stay. On the quiet end of Duval Street we still had fine restaurants just out our gate. Scooter rentals, tour booking booths, and upscale shops all within our block. Hemingway House and other sightseeing stops within walking distance. The property itself was well maintained, comfortable, and quiet. We enjoyed our first experience with Vbro and Key West!

Great Location

My husband and adult son stayed here the week of July 4th. It is in a great location with shoot and restaurants within walking distance. We could walk to the pier at the end of White Strret (about 1 mile) to see the fireworks up close. We have two complaints: no bath soap provided and somewhat uncomfortable beds and bedding. It is beautifully decorated and comfortable otherwise. I would recommend this place for its location and space, but don’t forget to bring bath soap!

Great location | Gracious Environment | Spotlessly Clean

Ample space, best beds and linens! Spotlessly clean and fresh. Kitchen has spices in case you cook. The check out protocol is a bit over the top, due to the extensive list of 'tasks' the guests are expected to complete, all by no later than 10am. This is in addition to the cleaning fee.

Nice Space in the Right Place

The good is this condo complex is right off Duval St. with easy walking access to all of the restaurants and shops downtown. The condo itself is spacious and clean and our family of free was comfortable there. The not-so-good was the poor communication with property mgt. After a text was not responded to, I called the property mgt company to inquire as to where we could plug-in our electric golf cart rental, The agent (Carol) was not helpful and actually blamed me for not notifying them ahead of time as they would have recommended a gas-powered unit. We didn't see a single gas-powered golf cart cruising around town during our entire stay. Luckily, I found a plug in the garage on my own and was able to squeeze a charge in. Aside from this service letdown, we really liked the condo and would recommend.

Great location.

The only issue we had was the main bathtub not draining for the first 2 days. We called the office on the second day of our stay late Friday afternoon and no one ended up coming out to fix the issue. We left Monday late morning. Luckily, we figured it out anyway after messing around with the drain system more. The location of this place js great and near the quieter end lf Duval. Everything within walking/biking distance. The place wasn't spotless, but clean enough. We would stay here again.

Great location and property

This location and property was ideal for our family and visit. The townhome was clean, well organized, and all items were in working order. The check in process was a bit challenging. Specifically, the management company did not have the after hours lock box with keys stocked. Additionally, it would have been an added benefit to have some accoutrements available like small soap, shampoo, and coffee. The WI-FI was great. Overall a home run. We will definitely choose this location and servicing company again. With a few minor tweaks this will be an across the board 5 star rating. Nice job!

Fantastic place in central Key West

This great 2 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath unit is just south of central Duval street. This means that everything, and I mean everything, on the West side of Key West is within walking distance. Hemmingway house, and the light house are right next door. Better than Sex is a glorious Dessert place right next door as well (make reservations!). Southern most point is 10-15 minute easy walk. Mallory Square at the other end is about 20-25 minute easy walk. The rental company was fantastic for communication in getting us settled in. And you have your own dedicated parking space in a covered garage so no parking hassles at all. The unit is above a retail spot that is low key and quiet but has multiple restaurants, a CVS around the corner, and a circle K as well if you need something fast. We couldn't have hoped for more.
