Property Description

This well-designed Campbell Court unit has a one-bedroom, one-full bath courtyard unit. Enjoy your vacation in comfort. You can easily step from your front porch to access the heated, residents-only Monaco swimming pool. To the right you will find a raised deck with a table, chairs, shade umbrella, and umbrella. The lushly landscaped compound is surrounded by tropical foliage and a locked privacy wall. Despite its tranquility and beauty, the compound is just two blocks away from Duval Street. It is also three blocks away from the Historic Seaport. Both are listed as must-see's in any Key West vacation guide.
The sparkling pool and surrounding deck are what attracts most visitors when they arrive. They are surrounded by a ring made of bougainvillea, ferns and palms. You might even imagine something more relaxing, such as lying down on one of the chaise loungers and reading a magazine or napping in one of these water-cooled pools. The Key West Library, Monroe County's first branch of the 50-year-old public library, is just across the street. Perhaps you imagine yourself under a shaded umbrella enjoying a glass of ice-cold tea or a frothy drink. Perhaps you'll send a photo from here to your friends back home. The best thing about a vacation is the freedom to choose how you spend your time. Street parking is available for one small or medium-sized car. If your vehicle is too big to park in the designated space (vehicles must not exceed 16 feet), you will need to find street parking.
A few steps up from the winding walkway you will find the covered front porch of the cottage. It looks like it could be on the cover of Cottage Style magazine or Southern Living. A freshly painted wooden deck, two white wicker armchairs with pillows and a matching side table make this the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee and a pastry from Old Town Bakery. The picture is completed by a wall-mounted lantern that can be hung near the front door. It provides lighting and adds a stylish accent piece. The living area is located to your left as you enter the front door. It is a comfortable conversation area with a couch, two armchairs and a coffee table. There are also two lamps that are decorated with brightly colored images of tropical fish. To the right, there are two armchairs as well as a round table and a TV cabinet. There is cable TV, high-speed Internet and a DVD player. Ceiling fans are used throughout the space to circulate air and give it a beachy feel.
The galley kitchen features blond cabinets with glass doors and is set against white walls. The appliances and artwork have black accents that add a touch of contrast. Everything you need to make a gourmet meal is at your fingertips. Even if you are not feeling ambitious, the kitchen is functional and well-equipped with a breakfast bar and stool. The double sink has a window that lets in lots of natural light. Sliding glass doors open onto the back deck. The amazing sight of a tree trunk growing through the wooden deck planking, and reaching through the roof is breathtaking. If you look up, you can see the tree's top and all its leaves in canopy form. The deck has a glass-topped table and four chairs. You can grill on the gas grill nearby if you feel inspired to barbecue lunch or dinner. You can also relax in the hammock chair that is suspended in one corner.
The bedroom is located back inside, adjacent to the living area. It has a queen-sized bed, all creature comforts, such as side tables, lamps and fluffy bedding. A dresser, TV and a dresser are also available. There is also a large closet for clothes hanging. The room is completed with a framed painting of a Conch Cottage. The full bathroom is located adjacent to the bedroom. It can also be accessed through a separate door that opens into the living area. The dominant bath color is cloudy white with colorful art accents along the walls. A shelf contains plenty of nubby, white bath towels, hand towels and washcloths.
Once you have your bags packed and ready to go, put on your flip-flops as you explore the rest the Southernmost City. Three blocks away will take you to the Historic Seaport or Harbor Walk. You can find tall ships that offer day and sunset cruises along the Gulf of Mexico by following the wooden boardwalk. Or you can take an all-day ferry excursion into the Dry Tortugas. There are many watersports available, including diving, parasailing and snorkeling. There are a dozen restaurants that offer varying degrees of informality around the harbor.
You can also walk two blocks in the opposite direction to Duval Street, where you will find tours, museums and shopping. There are also more restaurants and bars. The Key West Aquarium is nearby, where you can even pet a shark. You can check your cell phone for sunset times so you don't miss the famous celebration at Mallory Square where both locals and tourists gather to watch the sun sink into the horizon. When the last edge of fiery orange disappears, be sure to cheer. If you're lucky enough, you might catch the rare neon green flash at the end of the second. Enjoy the carnival atmosphere and watch street performers and circus cats entertain the crowd with magic tricks and circus acts. Others sell handmade goods, tell fortunes and juggle fire. Conch fritters, small food items, and pop-up sidewalk bars sell a variety of drinks, wine, beer and soda.
Historic Hideaways' Events page is a great place to find out what's happening every day. Milezerokeywest.com also has information about the current music scene, movies and plays, gallery openings and charitable events. Paradise is also available at various locations in town every Thursday.
