For anyone with an affinity for the sea, everywhere you turn is a reminder of the water – from sailboat replicas of every shape and size; to prints of fish and sailor knots; to a mermaid toilet and a leaping dolphin faucet. This bohemian cottage features a master bedroom with a therapeutic king-sized bed, flat-screen TV, gleaming hardwood floors, and white-washed paneled walls. A spacious wheelchair-accessible bathroom comes complete with a walk-in shower and a separate tub with navy and white checked tiles. The airy galley kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances and is ready for the chef at your party to prepare delicious meals. Sit and savor at the dining room as you overlook the soothing landscaped outdoor area or step into the bricked courtyard and contemplate life on a bench overlooking the tranquil lagoon pool. The Boat House has a large private covered deck, just perfect for enjoying an afternoon cocktail or a good book, overlooking a shared pool. Spend some time relaxing and dream of days on the ocean at the Boat House, but remember you are within two blocks of the excitement of Duval Street with shops, bars, restaurants and art galleries all waiting to be explored! Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous. It embodies a clash of the past and the present, and every building (including this rental) in Key West reflects this eclectic ambiance! Need even more room for your group? The Boat House is just next door to the Midnight Cowboy compound, which includes the three spaces that can also be rented together: Monkey House (a 2BR space), the Main House (1 king bedroom) plus the Hibiscus Suite (studio-style space with a queen bed) at Tennessee Williams. All spaces share access to the central pool area. AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more.
