With it being about 3 blocks from Duval Street you’d be close to everything but still secluded enough to relax. Accommodations include complimentary breakfast, hammocks strewn throughout the grounds, access to the outdoor pool, daily refreshments, high-speed WiFi, luxurious bedding and bathroom essentials, and AC. There are also add ons like chocolate strawberries, roses, champagne, and massage services!

Read what the past guests have to say:

  • A splendid place to stay in The Keys! The rooms are wonderful, the .25 acres creatively and beautifully optimized, staff pleasant, and amenities perfect. We parked our car there for the 4 days we stayed and walked to every destination. I highly recommend this B&B.
  • We loved this hidden treasure very close to Duval St. The staff is amazing from making breakfast to booking excursions for us! Rooms are so comfortable and very clean. I love the sugar scrub in the bathroom. I can’t wait to come back.
  • The Mermaid and The Alligator is now the ONLY place we will stay when we visit Key West. Exceptional atmosphere, grounds, service, rooms, amenities, delicious breakfast and perfect location. Maura and Bella are amazing hostesses. Stay here, you will LOVE it!
  • By far the best vacation we’ve taken. We will be back! Service is AMAZING, staff is wonder and kind. Rooms were clean and we’ll maintained. Far enough away from the strip to have some peace at night but close enough to walk to have a good time.

I’ve been to Key West a couple of times now, but from reading through the reviews I think i’d pick this Inn to stay at the next time I visit. I love being close to Duval St. but I also appreciate being able to relax and find some quiet time. The concierge can make recommendations and all types of reservations which is great since there’s so much to do in Old Town.

Some things to note, pets are not allowed unless they’re certified service animals, there’s complimentary parking, and no guests under 16 are permitted.
