Location is key and this place is located perfectly. This property sits in the quiet, lush and tropical setting of the Truman Annex. The house is walking distance from Fort Zachary Taylor beach and a few blocks from Duval. We literally walked everywhere. The house itself was very clean and comfortable. It accommodated our family of 5, including 3 adult children, very well. The house is also very well equipped with everything you need to go to the beach or to prepare a meal. Prior to our trip, I contacted Jean with a couple of questions and she was exceptionally responsive and welcoming. Our entire family felt that this was one of the best vacations we have ever taken. If we ever go back to Key West we know exactly where we will be staying.

As for other things we enjoyed in Key West. The Fury Ultimate Jet Ski Tour, the Dry Tortugas Tour aboard the Yankee Freedom III, Blue Heaven for Eggs Benedict, Flying Monkey for frozen drinks, Fort Zachary Taylor Beach, Kermit's Key Lime Pie, WineO for wine tasting and smoked gouda bites, DJs Clam Shack for the overstuffed Lobster Roll and the mussels if they have them as the daily special (they are amazing), Sloppy Joe's for drinks and the smoked fish dip, El Meson De Pepe (Cuban), Hemingway's House is a great tour as well. The hop-on hop-off tour is also worth taking one day to get a good overview of the key (best on day 1 or 2).

I also highly recommend Key West Cab (305) 296-1346. We used them a few times for long trips and they were at our pick up spot on the minute every time, even when we booked a day ahead. Very very reliable.
