Wonderful vacation
This quaint little bungalow has everything you need. We walked about 21 miles overall during our 8 day stay but we were able to see so many amazing things. We went fishing, went on a sunset cruise, walked to several of the museums. We were Awed by the rich history. I think we actually ate our way through Key West and still had a few meals in the bungalow. Oh did I mention the almost private pool. We loved that, after a long day walking we would come back and soak in the pool for a while. We also got a bonus as we were there during hurricane Milton. We were not really affected by the storm but our flight out was cancelled. Spoke with Roberta and we were able to stay another night. Overall we had a blast!!!

Perfect for our needs
Pros: proximity to most things on the island, nice little pool, fenced yard to store bikes without locking them up, cold AC. Cons: I can’t really think of any. Maybe thought the cleaning fee was steep.

Closing Out 2023
We really enjoyed our stay here. There was ample space, especially for a couple. The location is excellent, close to Duval St., beach, or southernmost area. We rang in the new year while staying here and the access is easy, well lit, and off street parking for one vehicle. The kitchen was stocked with what you’d need to prepare a meal, full size fridge is a plus, and microwave and stove. The only thing to point out is the shower is cramped and I’m a tall guy. The shower worked great and had plenty of hot water. It was too cold to try out the pool but the property is beautiful and would be a great place to relax in the common use area. If looking for a great place in Key West, look to book here.

Great little spot
Our stay in key west was made that much better by this cute little property. It was clean and cozy in a great location. We were close enough to “the action” of duval street without being on top of it. Also having the convenience of a CVS just a short walk away was perfect for the forgetful traveler or last minute needs. Would absolutely recommend this property to other couples looking to stay in key west. The pool was a definite plus and was alway clean. Don’t forget to give some love to the resident outdoor cat who was absolutely adorable and the sweetest cat I have ever met!

This old Key West style bungalow is in a great location. Quiet neighborhood, with a short walk to the southern end of Duval Street. We had a scooter, which made getting around even quicker and easier. Ubers are plentiful and quick to arrive. The property is surrounded by tropical foliage, and the shared pool is just steps from either door. The inside is clean and comfy. There are two other houses on the property, but we didn't even notice them, and felt like the house was ours alone. For cat lovers, Kitty resides on the property, and will show up if you call, for food and pets. We can't wait to go back, and highly recommend this lovely bungalow!

Great little cottage, located away from the hussle but close enough to walk/bike/ride to the sites. Private parking place, great little pool to cool off, and best of all Roberta the property manager was super responsive to any questions we had. The property owners live in the main house, and we had a chance to chat with them and they too were extremely pleasant and nice people to meet. We only saw them once while there, the cottage is really private and you can be left alone if you so choose. Great place, would stay here again.

Tough - Kitty saved the day
It is really tough and I do not like to provide negative reviews, but this one is. I followed other reviews up to the point of "moving in". I sensed also that all was not well, but when making contact about building works etc I was told all was well and there would be no disturbance nor building works going on. However, whilst the building works was minimal whilst we were there, it was a building site, particularly around the our allocated parking. One of the guys that was frequently around the place actually advised us against parking there, because it "is a building site, full of screws and nails". The communcation with the property manager was one way and of an autocratic nature. I sent one mail asking for clarification on check out early on during our stay, but got no response. But when it came to telling us what to do she was good at communicating that. 10% discount was offered before our stay - due to inconvenience because of building works. The cottage itself is described as conch style, which would be fine, but it feels like it was built late 1950's or early 1960's - and nothing has been done to the interior since then - that was the perception we were left with. The only thing that in our view was positive was the lovely resident cat, Kitty.

New years weekend
We absolutely loved our stay in The Bungalow Cottage! It was exactly what we needed! The pool was an added bonus. It was much needed each morning after a late night out on duval st. We definitely plan to go back asap! Roberta was a pleasure to deal with. She was always available to answer any questions. We also enjoyed sitting on the porch and by the pool with Kitty.

The cottage was exactly as described and I read all the reviews. The property has 3 houses that share the pool. The main home is under construction and we only ran into them a couple times. The hotwater in the shower does have a trickle but we found all you need to do is turn the knob to the right instead of the left for pressure. I would like to have a better pans to cook with. The non-stick ones there are very cheap and the one should be replaced as it was burnt when I pulled it out to use it. Beware of the protruding nails in the closet. I stepped on it the morning we left. Also, I feel this should be labeled a 3 person rental as the futon couch is really made for one person and is extremely uncomfortable. Someone left a blow-up mattress but there is no pump to blow it up. The pool is a nice size, not heated, has some pieces missing on the bottom flag area so be careful, it's nice and deep on one end. We definitely enjoyed it. We all loved the kitty at the rental. She is so sweet and lovey. She's not dirty and no bother at all. Roberta was very nice and we only really had one issue with wifi and it was an operator error. She helped to get that resolved. Overall we had a wonderful trip. I would stay again but only with 2 people. Location is about 4 minutes to everything except publix that was about 10 minutes on our bikes.

Noise and construction on property
We were not told about construction going on at property untill 2 weeks before arrival date and it had been going on all summer, after they got our final payment. Also no parking space for this unit and property manager constantly lied to us. Telling us that there was a parking lot across the street but there is not. Then she said on the street but that's only permit holders. Then she said we could park a few steps away by the church. The church is a block away and good luck getting a spot and if you do don't ever move your car till your leaving town. She lied saying the construction was all done outside and they would only be working inside. Nope it wasn't, they set up saws outside running them all day, they had the big sliding doors open all day so all hamming and noise was right there at the pool and our cottage along with a bunch of construction workers stering at you if you used the pool only 15ft away. Then they would play their music so no peace and quiet. The property mgr said she'd give use a 15% discount for problems which ended up being only about 12%. She should have notified us a month or two ahead of reservation and gave us the opportunity to cancel before making our last payment. Cottage is in need of repairs. This was our first Vrbo and was VERY DISAPPOINTED. Don't like being lied too. Also other couple staying at same time but booked directly were very upset with all the same issues as us only they were lucky to have a dedicated parking space.

Overall we had a great time. Location was great, loved having a pool. Property manager very responsive and helpful. Our only complaint is that the listing lists parking and washer/dryer but due to construction there was neither. Property manager was helpful in providing parking options for us to use and there is a laundromat within walking distance.

The accommodations were great. Quaint little property a block from the mile-zero marker... we got in as the hurricane was passing by, so had some minor storm damage/mess. Roberta (the property manager) had the handyman out immediately to square things away. Customer service was outstanding, as she had to relocate us to other accommodations (which were fantastic also) As a side-note, the main house on this property is being renovated, so there is some contractor-stuff going on... (hopefully that rental will be available when we return)

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The cat was a pleasure to take care of while there. We loved having the pool. There was only one day where the workers on the main house worked until 7:00 or after, but other than that we did not really pay attention to them. There was one evening I had to kill some termite looking insects. We also had some sugar ants coming in from the kitchen window. The pest man did treat the cottage, so unfortunately this happens sometimes. I would definitely stay again. Roberta is a great host.

This was the perfect rental for my partner and I! The house was clean and the location was great. We rented bikes and everything was just minutes away. The pool was amazing and the perfect way to cool down in the middle of the day. The kitty that hangs around the property was the sweetest cat ever. She sat with us on the porch and even hung around the pool while we swam. Loved this property and would definitely stay here again.
