Our home is " your home in Key West."

Start each day with a wonderful full breakfast to keep you going whether your plans take you to the beach, out snorkeling and diving, or touring the many shops, galleries and restaurants of Duval Street, just three blocks away.

When you've seen all you want to, simply "come home" and relax in our beautiful garden setting, in the sun or shade. Enjoy the subtle music...cool off with a dip in our pool...recharge yourself. As night falls enjoy a complimentary glass of wine as you unwind to make your evening plans.

Each uniquely decorated room in our stately mansion has its own distinct personality, one is sure to match yours.


The Caribbean Queen Room offers all the amenities of a great honeymoon suite or romantic weekend getaway. Watch the world of Key West go by from the wraparound veranda, relax in the large Roman soaking tub and get comfortable in the four poster queen size bed.
The Garden Room is set just off the pool and garden. It features   handsome French doors, an airy cathedral ceiling, queen size canopy bed and a wonderful glass block shower.
The Royal Poinciana is the perfect writer's retreat. Unwind on the outside veranda, sit and pen your thoughts at the antique writing desk and relax in the comfort of its metal canopy bed and elegant bath with marble shower.
The Treetop Suite is nestled away on the third floor and aptly named for its view out across the neighborhood treetops. The splendor of the room is the exposed beam, cathedral, Dade County Pine ceiling highlighting the distinct gabled rooflines, which typify the Victorian house, as they connect to form a large room which features a queen bed and sofa sitting area.
