We had a fantastic experiance staying at this charming, cozy hotel. The staff were incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to ensure our stay was comfortable. The location was perfect—tucked away in a quiet area but still close to all the local attractions. One of the highlights was the complimentary breakfast, offering fresh and delicious options to start the day. Our room was beautifully furnished with antique pieces, adding a unique and homely charm. Plus, the balcony provided a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the view. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat!

Incredible hotel right in the middle of key west, not even two minutes from the main strip on duval street. The grounds are stunning with unique characteristics that bring the hotel to life. The breakfast was the only disappointment from our stay due to the small portions and lack luster delivery which stood out compared to everything else in the property. However, there are plenty of options for breakfast within a short walk.

The property was absolutely gorgeous!! A dreamy setting inside the courtyard. Our room was beautiful, clean and huge. I’ll recommend it to anyone I know visiting Ket West. And the staff was amazing too. They were willing to help use get ticket's, a golf cart delivered, dinner info, a beach bag with towels in it and a wonderful breakfast made fresh. Not to mention it’s Adult only, so the pool was open 24/7

This place was amazing! We loved how quiet it was. The ameneties of its our bar and even an extra cabana bathroom we used even after check out was very nice. The wine bar is a great feature if you like regular red and white (no sweet ones.) Everything was so easy from walming to duval which is 1 block away to renting bikes for the day. A bed and breakfast with a hotel feel. Will definitely be coming back!
