AMBROSIA KEY WEST, Key West

The property is a 3-minute walk from the art galleries and cafés of Duval Street and within a 5- to 10-minute walk of Mallory Square (1 km), the Historic Seaport (0.5 km), and the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum (1 km). The Southernmost Point, Fort Zachary Taylor State Park (2 km), and dozens of restaurants and bars are all easily reachable on foot. Despite its central location, the street is quiet, providing a calm retreat after exploring. There is no airport shuttle, but a cab from Key West International Airport is a short ride. Bicycle rental is available on-site for guests wanting to explore farther.

Room types include suites, town homes, and standalone cottages, many with private entrances opening onto verandas, patios, or gardens. Options include the spacious Amelia Suite (king bed, sleeper sofa, wet bar), the romantic Honeymoon Room (king bed, two-person Jacuzzi tub), and the family-friendly Katie's Kottage (two bedrooms, two baths, full kitchen, sleeps six). Some rooms - particularly in the annex across the street - have reported issues with noise transfer, sloping floors, and dated furnishings, so requesting a room in the main building is recommended for a more consistent experience. All accommodations feature private bathrooms, air conditioning, ceiling fans, flat-screen TVs, in-room safes, and Keurig coffee makers; most include a refrigerator and microwave.

The included breakfast runs from 8:30 to 10:30 AM at the pool veranda and typically offers eggs, bacon or sausage, pancakes or French toast, fresh fruit, yogurt, pastries, coffee, and juice. Breakfast is included for all reservations. The property also offers a Prosecco & Chocolate Package ($50) and a Wine & Chocolate Package ($45) for in-room arrival. For other meals, the surrounding Old Town area is packed with options such as Sarabeth's Kitchen, Faustos Food Palace, and a variety of bars and cafes, all within a 3- to 5-minute walk. The concierge can provide recommendations and assist with reservations.

The property features three swimming pools - one is a lap pool, another is a smaller dip pool, and all are heated year-round (typically between 86-33.3 °C). A heated whirlpool spa is also available (though it may be functioning as a standard heated pool; confirm current status at check-in). Sun loungers, umbrellas, and pool towels are provided. For wellness, Essera Spa offers in-suite massage therapy by appointment (call 305-783-8550). Bicycle rental is available on-site for exploring the island, and the area offers walking tours, fishing, diving, and snorkeling. Board games are available for family entertainment.

The property offers a safety deposit box, smoke alarms, CCTV in common areas, and fire extinguishers. Parking is limited (4 regular spots + 1 handicapped) and costs $25/day on-site or $15-$25/day at a nearby lot (reservation not possible). Bicycle rental is available.
