PARADISE INN - ADULT EXCLUSIVE, Key West

The inn is located on a quiet side street just off Duval Street, making it a short walk to the Hemingway Home, Mallory Square, the Key West Butterfly Conservatory, and dozens of restaurants and bars. Higgs Beach and the aquarium are a 5-minute drive. For those without a car, a free bus stop is steps from the front lobby, and many guests find the central location ideal for exploring the island on foot. Road-facing rooms may hear street traffic during the day, but the property itself feels secluded and peaceful at night.

Accommodations range from Queen and King Mini Suites to one-bedroom suites and two-bedroom cottages. Cottages like the Gumbo Limbo and Royal Poinciana feature private porches or patios, living areas with sleeper sofas, and in some cases two full bathrooms. The accessible King Mini Suite offers a roll-in shower, grab bars, and wider doorways. All rooms are non-smoking and have individual air conditioning. Some units are on the second floor with 19-25 stairs. A separate two-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen, washer/dryer, and private deck is available in the annex building. Guests have reported that floors may not be thoroughly cleaned between stays, and limited drawer space means most clothing must be kept in suitcases or open closets. Pillows tend to be thick and firm; travellers sensitive to pillow firmness should bring their own. Rooms facing the street may experience traffic noise, while interior cottages are quieter.

Breakfast is served from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM featuring fresh fruit, yogurt, granola, hard-boiled eggs, bagels, pastries, make-your-own waffles, juices, milk, and Starbucks coffee. Coffee and tea from a Starbucks machine remain available until 10:00 PM. The evening happy hour from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM offers a selection of wines, cheese, crackers, and mixed nuts. The breakfast is continental style without hot dishes beyond the waffle maker; some travellers find the offerings simple but sufficient for starting the day. For those who prefer a more substantial meal, numerous restaurants are a one-to-three-minute walk on Duval Street.

Wi-Fi is free throughout the property and works reliably in rooms and common areas. A vending machine for drinks is on site. Laundry and dry cleaning services are available for an additional charge. The front desk provides tour booking and concierge assistance. Luggage storage is offered free of charge for both early arrivals and late departures. On-site private parking costs $32 per night plus tax, is first-come, first-served, and cannot be reserved. Street parking and a nearby city lot are available at $4 per hour from 8 AM to midnight. The property is adult-only (minimum check-in age 21) and is fully non-smoking, with a designated outdoor smoking area.
