This charming one bedroom cottage is the perfect hideaway. A homey, inviting compound created so owners could enjoy shared tropical outdoor spaces. Across from the Curry Mansion and Old City Hall, around the corner from Duval Street and offering 'walk to everything' convenience. This bright and airy cottage has tile floors thoughout, king sized bed, spa bath, a shared free form pool and washer/dryer. There is also a good-sized private deck with outdoor furniture for your enjoyment and comfort. Bedding: 1 king
Well you can't ask for a better location - you are just one block from the action and at the right end of Key West - so the location was perfect. It looks just like it shows in the pictures - the bathroom shower is great - plenty of hot water - kitchen if wonderful and the bedroom fine with a great bed and great outside area that is private - very nice for two people - just be aware that you are in the middle of an urban area so yes the garbage needs to be picked up and there is just a little noise from the street may twice in the one week - we thought the noice issue was nothing for us vs the location. Get one of the four free street parking spaces on ann Street as soon as you can - other will be watining for them - they are good in town - we parked in one spot for free for 7 days and no issue - now that is nice - the owners gave us good tip on that!! Only two issues - the pool was too cold - but we kind of knew that going in - but we found we could go to a number of hotels and buy lunch and use the pool - so that was okay. I would not count it a pool based unit - pool was a bit dirty and burrr - no sun lots of shade. My biggest problem was that NBC and all the NBC stations had no sound on the TV - so and games or new events or shows we like were unwatchable - we called the owners and they said they would work on it but never heard back - All and all the place is great and we loved the week in Key West. Be careful - we looked at a lot of places we were thinking of renting from other firms - the folks that have Tranquility do a very good job - there is a good chance in Key West of being stuck with a Dog - we met a lot of people who were - these folks are honest and provided a good value and great homes - unique to Key West from what we found
This was our second time staying at ann Street Tranquility and is still one of our favorite rentals. We love the location for ease of Duval Street access or hiding out in the compound relaxing. We love the decor and amenities like having our own washer/dryer is a great convenience.
Loved this place and the location. The staff at Rent Key West was very nice and helpful. Mrs. Dorreen was a sweetheart and a lot of help. The only issue was some ants in the house. We would reccomend ann St. to anyone looking for a place in Key West.
Ann Street Tranquility was marvelous!!! I was pleasantly suprised at how the property was exactly like the pictures on the internet. I say that because I had a less than desirable experience outside the country vacationing at a house that we picked out on the internet, and when we got there it was not at all like it was portrayed. With that in mind, I was very skeptical when we first arrived and saw the outside gate with all the trees and vegetation and immediately had a flashback. My girlfriend left me in the car to take the bags in while I waited with the car. I was in the car sitting on pins and needles until she came back and all she said was "It's Cute". Needless to say, from her statement I was not convinced, and I am even more nervous because I picked out the house, so if it had been a dump I wouldn't have been able to blame her.(LOL) But as soon as I walked in the house OMG!!! It was so cozy and quaint, and even though we were a block away from Duval St, when we went in, we were able to leave all the hustle and bustle behind. It was like we were shut off from the world when we were there, and we could just enjoy the house. I would recommend this property very highly to anyone that is looking to have a quiet retreat that is still right around the corner from all the action. It is well worth the investment. My girlfriend and I have claimed ann Street Tranquility as "our home away from home" or as some would say our Honeycomb Hideout!!! Thank you so much for having such a beautiful place for us to stay so that we were able to relax and feel at home . We will be staying there again and again and again. We loved it and so will you.
Anne Street is the perfect location to stay in Key West. You are steps from Scooter rental and just off the main street. The best parts of Key West are all located at this end of the island. Clean, convenient, fantastic location, perfect size for two people. Private swimming pool, landscaping is private. Amenities of the anne Street are great. We stayed for our Honeymoon, and cannot say enough great things about this location. We are definitely coming back for our 1st anniversary!
This year was our third spent at ann Street Tranquility. We stayed for two and a half weeks and were thrilled to find a gas grill on our patio this time. The property was beautiful, as always. We also love the fact that there are only three other rental units on the compound to share the large pool, so often we are the only ones there. We repeatedly rent this property because it is right in the center of the action and most everything is only a short walk away. This saves a tremendous amount of money on car rentals. This vacation was our sixth time renting through Rent Key West Vacations and the staff has always been very helpful and on top of any unforeseen problems. We highly recommend Rent Key West Vacations and especially the ann Street Tranquility property. We will most likely be back there next year to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary!

On previous trips to KW we have lodged in a private house and a hotel, Ann Street Tranquility was the perfect choice for us. Cozy, convenient, and well-appointed, the condo really gave us the feeling of being right at home in paradise. The two previous reviews are very accurate. The condo not only has all the basics supplies needed for a week's stay but many extras, just look in a cabinet or drawer and you will most likely find anything you may have forgotten to pack. Thanks to whoever left the cold beverages in the fridge, as we arrived too late to make the short (two blocks!) walk to Fausto's our first night. Parking was not an issue for us, we did not bring a car and have never found the need for any form of transportation on the island, other than our own two feet and a cab to and from the airport. Honestly, after racking my brain for any suggestions to improve one's stay here, I am hard-pressed to think of anything except... maybe a small fan for the beautiful patio where we spent a great deal of our time. The convenient location was great but the serenity of the place so affected us that we spent more than one lazy day venturing out only as far as the very private pool! As for the sun only hitting the pool from 12-3p, I cannot comment. We were on island time and napping on the plush bed in cool comfort at this time every day. We did manage enough motivation to do a few activities. Having experienced everything from the Dry Tortuga's to the Hemingway House, we can highly recommend the Sebago Island T'ing trip, great experience and even better value. Also if you don't mind the walk treat yourself to lunch at El Siboney's, we did twice! While the positives of this particular property are too many to mention, perhaps the most significant is the staff at Rent Key West. Everyone was extremely helpful and professional. Special thank you to Joyce! We will most definitely utilize this agency again and again.
This was our second trip to Key West. The first time we stayed in a nice resort, but paid much more per night and had to have scooters to get anywhere. Tranquility was perfect. The noise from Duval was very minimal and usually non-existent. I only heard leaf blowers twice around 8am, but we were trying to be up early to enjoy the day anyway. Very well equipped with everything. And seemed to have a "take one, leave one" theme going with little extras, such as washing detergent, sunscreen and the like. We purchased some laundry goods and paper products which we gladly left to continue the cycle. Another plus was the washer/dryer included with the unit. Other properties on the complex had to make use of a coin laundry in a central building. Tranquility had its own. Everything worked perfectly. No problems what-so-ever. Home was very clean and well decorated. Shower was huge with plenty of room for two. Pool stayed clean and comfortable. The sun only hit for a short time in the afternoon, but it was a nice break away from the heat quite often. Some mentioned the need for landscape maintenance, but to me it was simply a lush, tropical escape with beautiful florals and palms. We met one other couple from the complex at the pool and enjoyed a wonderful conversation for quite awhile and even received an excellent dinner suggestion. The only drawback, which is common anywhere on the island, is parking. There are about 4 spots out front which are highly prized. Otherwise, you may be looking at paid lots or a walk to other parking. Scooters are likely not needed due to its close proximity to everything, but if you should choose to explore away from Duval, the harbor or Mallory Square then scooters or bikes are the way to go. We would highly recommend this property to any couple wanting a clean and convenient stay in beautiful Key West.
This condo is amazing. It is exactly as it looks in the photos and as describe. The location is amaznig- 1 block from Sloppy Joes. The clean, private, shaded pool is a real luxury- we went swimming at least once a day and typicically had the pool all to ourselves. The condo has a gas grill and private patio which has a gate to the street- very nice. Others complained about noise and I'll say this- At night, you can hear music from the bars if you are outside, but inside it is quiet. In the morning you might hear street cleaners or the trash pickup, but it is only for a few minutes and didn't wake me up. This condo provides everything you need- pool towels, cups, basics (oil, spices) for cooking. I had to use the after hours drop box, but it was very convenient to be able to check in late. The a/C worked perfectly during our stay, I saw some ants outside on the patio, but none in the condo. I have absolutely no compaints, I would love to stay here again, but I am so impressed with Rent Key West that I also want to try some of their other places!
We stayed at Tranquility at ann Street gardens for a week for our honeymoon and could not be happier with our experience! What a wonderful place to stay! Checking in was a piece of cake, the property was gorgeous, the unit was beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. We truly felt like we were in paradise given the lush gardens, especially by the pool area. The private patio was nice - close to the street but we couldn't tell! It was such a nice place to come back to relax at the end of the day. Some reviews mentioned noise in the morning, but we only heard noise on Thursday morning and had no problem sleeping in if we wanted. Tranquility is also in a great location! We were a bit skeptical given how close to the street the property is and how close to Duval Street and Sloppy Joe's, but it was perfect! It was so quiet, but close to everything. We did not feel the need to rent a car, but only rented bikes for a couple of days to explore the island. The only things that could have possibly made Tranquility better would be double sinks in the bathroom (only because we have gotten so used to these at home) and a bike rack on the property. We will definitely be making our way down to Key West again and would consider staying at Tranquility again!
This vacation property is extremely special. It is beautiful and a comfortable place to stay. We really enjoyed the Swimming Pool, Private Patio and most of all the Location. It was great having a Washer/Dryer and our own private Grill. The mattresses were uncomfortable, and only one evening we heard music coming from Duval Street.
had a wonderful time in Key West. Ann St tranquility was amazing. It was decorated nicely, AC worked perfectly, kitchen was fully stocked, laundry facility was great. The outside deck/patio was beautiful. Bring ear plugs if you want to sleep past 7:15am the street cleaners come every morning and garbage/recycleables are picked up on Mon. starting around 5:15am. We knew this going in b/c of the previous reviews and still don't regret renting this place for 1 minute. The pool didn't get sun until around 11ish, but then it was nice and refreshing. If I had to make 1 suggestion, the grounds are beautiful but are in need of some cleaning up. Alot is overgrown, leaves in our patio and the pool area. But nothing that a landscapers can't take care of. Other than that we loved staying and would recommend renting this special place instead of a hotel. Close to everything, 2 blocks from the action. We didn't not hear duval street noise at all at night or during the day.
We got married in Key West in april and stayed at the Tranquility for a week. It was clean, private, romantic and had all the amenities that would make it convenient to stay even longer. Since we were entertaining so many guests we went out a lot. However, this place is perfect if you want to have some quiet nights in and cook and relax on your private patio(with grill). There was also a washer and dryer in the unit which came in handy since we were traveling an additional week afterwards too. It was a little more than we would typically spend but given it was high season we would have paid about the same if we stayed at a Guest house in the area. The location was great, right next to the Curry Mansion and a block away from Duval street. I slept fine and didn't find it loud even being so close to Duval. The management company was extremely helpful too; they let us leave our bags in the office since we arrived before check in time. Thank you for such a great stay!!
We enjoyed being in Key West in February! The location of ann Street in relation to Duval Street was just a little too close. It was very loud at night~late at night! Then at 6:45 to 7:00 every morning the leaf blower man would be outside as well as the big truck that would come down ann Street to clean the street-Yikes! The apartment also was in dire need of Pest Control! We actually spent little time in the unit as we were enthralled with the Keys! So our overall experience with our vacation was wonderful!
everything was over and above, great attention to the details of daily needs, only needed more toilet paper...went to Fausto's and bought some ourselves
I rented this property for my 40th birthday for my partner and myself to relax and get away from everything. The condo was perfect in every way from the size, furniture, fixture to the finishes. It was very private. Everything was perfect. Everyone at Rent Key West was fantastic to deal with. I appreciate everything. Thanks again to each and everyone. Will see you again soon.
Overall we enjoyed the rental, it was very convenient to everything! It is very noisy in the mornings with trucks, garbage trucks, etc so don't plan on sleeping past 7 am. We had to park our rented scooter on the street and someone tried to steal it over night. We tried to park it in the compound but was quickly told we couldn't. Thank goodness the scooter rental company didn't charge us for the damages. Also, the ants in this unit are out of control. We called to complain and they brought us a can of bug spray, within 2 hours the ants were back two fold.
We are very glad the guests enjoyed their stay at the popular Ann St Tranquility. As with any downtown rental, you will occasionally experience busy noises of work trucks and tourists having fun. Though the soothing sounds of the air conditoiner will drown these out. The ant problem is new to this unit and all our properties get sprayed once a month. We always encourage our guests to properly store all their food products where ever they might be renting
So close to the action on busy Duval St. and to be back at the cottage within a couple of minutes. The cottage was neat and clean and lived up to it's name of Tranquility. It was a beautiful vacation.
You couldn't ask for a better location than ann St. Tranquility. Right next to Duval. Everything was clean and very comfortable. The amenities were well-stocked, the laundry facility was great, and the bed was comfortable. The outdoor patio and grill was convenient and made a great place to keep our bikes. The decor was nice and the a/C worked beautifully. The pool was very refreshing and we never saw anyone else in it the whole week we were there. We didn't have any real problems, and the staff was very friendly. My only small complaint is that we had to check-in at the far end of Duval street - thank goodness for the bikes! We've stayed in the Keys many times before at guest houses and hotels, but the privacy and peace we got here - as well as the great value - will keep us coming back.
The foliage and plantings at the entrance to 217 Ann Street make us immediately feel like we'd arrived at a tropical oasis! It only got better when we opened the door and saw the decor and amenities! The shower is to die for! And the french doors off the bedroom to the enclosed patio made us feel we were in paradise! The bed was very plush, and we had a restful week's sleep! The pool was very private, quiet and refreshing! The location is very convenient to shops, food, and entertainment, only a block from Duval Street - but you would never know as the foliage blocks the noise and chaos. We would HIGHLY recommend a restive stay at Ann Street Tranquility!
Our only reservation concerns the pool area, which was not kept up and offered no chance to sit in the sun. The flat itself is superb.
Ann Street Tranquility was truly a tropical paradise. It was hard to believe that we were only a block from Duval Street. We have been to Key West on 7 previous visits and this was our favorite place. Albeit, if your are looking to sun and swim, this is not the place to come. The tropical trees block the sun from the pool and the pool is not heated. Overall, it was a wonderful experience! RLB
My wife and I have stayed at the Ann Street compound three times. The last time we stayed in "Tranquility"--an absolutely beautiful house in an old artists compound. The location is within walking distance of everything!Private and secluded with your own pool and grounds yet only steps to Duval St. and all the restaurants and nightlife you could want. Two blocks to the seaport make this house the perfect "base" of your vacation! Rent Key West is professional yet laid back {as everything is in Key West}!! We can't wait to book our next trip thru Rent KW and will definitely stay in "Tranquility" if available! Enjoy yourselves and remember--"STAY KEYED UP AND CONCHED OUT"!! DAVE and DEB
What a beautiful , peaceful little place! So close to everything Key West has to offer, but secluded enough to have that "getting away" feeling. Our favorite part was the comfy bed. Coming home from our nightime adventures and melting into that big bed was a treat. Ann street Tranquility has everything you need and more to make your vacation truly special.
Key West's Ann St. Tranquility was a wonderful place spending our first week together! It was both quiet and intimate--a retreat from the exciting nightlife of Key West! We loved how cozy the atmosphere the Ann St. house gave us. We only had two complaints for the whole week: 1.) The air was broken in the living room area and we got no response. We even called the rental company twice and spent one afternoon waiting on a repairman. The air was never fixed and we spent limited time in the living room area because of it. 2.) Parking. We know the rental company can do little about the limited parking in Key West however, it is a general complaint that many others have voiced as well. We loved our time in Key West and will definitly return to Ann St. in the future!!!
My wife and I rented the property for our honeymoon and as soon as we walked through the door we were blown away by it. The set up of the house was awesome and the location was great. It is far enough off of Duval street so that you are not bothered by the noise or people but it is close enough that you can walk just about any where. We stayed for a week and loved every minute of it. The only issue we had was that the AC is the living room was broke and it was really hot in that room and the kitchen (especially when we cooked). We called three twice for someone to come and fix it and it never happened. Not sure what happened there but the rest of the service was great and we will for sure be going back again (provided the AC is fixed by then!) The parking situation is also a little sketchy it would be nice if there was a private parking lot for people renting Rent KW's properties cause paying for parking every day can get a little pricey. This was my first trip to Key West and her second and we both agree that this was the way to do it.
The air conditioner has been fixed and everything is now in working order now
The house was charming and had everything we needed. Located a short block from Duval; not far from Front St -- the location was perfect for relaxing away from the noise; yet walkable to everything. There were only 2 negatives and one was just a matter of personal preference. The foliage is so lush, there was no direct sun at the pool. This is probably a plus in the spring/summer months but in Nov/Dec we would have preferred sun. The 2nd comment pertains to the floors in the rental. Although the house was clean, the floors were swept/vac'd only, not washed -- not nice for walking barefoot and something management should insist on from their cleaning people. Rent Key West was easy to deal with and we would definitely rent through them again.
We enjoyed the cottage. The interior was beautiful and very clean. Very nicely decorated with higher end accessories. The location was absolutely perfect. The only improvement that could be made was the entrance and pool area was not well manicured. It was very overgrown and jungle like. We would not hesitate to return.
Everything is perfect EXCEPT the minimum length of stay is too long. I think it is 6-7 nights but most folks, who are long time visitors of Key West, only want to stay 3-4 nights. The folks at Rent Key West are outstanding and so is the the unit. Can't think of one thing that needs changing except the min.
I will stay here again. We have been coming to Key West for 10 years and this is the nicest place we have stayed. You will never know its a rental. It looks like a home you would want to live in. I think the location was great but, I wish the pool was heated. Even in March, its to cool to swim unless it is heated. Overall, a 9.25 on a scale of 10.
