Key West Oasis: Secluded Private Pool, Tropical Backyard, Separate Guest Cottage

Please Note: Key West Oasis is NOT suitable for families with young children, as the 2nd bedroom is not attached to the main house - it is in a back cottage, separated by a pool. On the other hand, this is the perfect layout for two couples or families with older children, as this setup offers much more privacy.

Discover the charm of Old Town Key West at Key West Oasis, a beautifully appointed two-bedroom, two-bath private vacation home tucked away in one of Key West's desirable historic neighborhoods. Enjoy convenient access to Key West's Duval Street, wonderful restaurants, boutique shops, lively bars and beaches, while having a peaceful, private retreat to return to at the end of the day.

Originally built in 1906 as a cigar maker's cottage, this historic home has been thoughtfully renovated to blend its original Key West character with the comforts and conveniences of modern living. The main house features an inviting open floor plan, beautiful hardwood floors and original Dade County pine walls and ceilings. Newly completed in September 2026, the dramatic vaulted ceiling creates an airy, spacious feel that makes the living area especially inviting.

The main house includes a comfortable master suite, a fully equipped gourmet kitchen, and an open living and dining area designed for relaxing and entertaining. French doors open directly onto your own private tropical backyard, where the beauty of Key West living really comes to life.

Step outside and discover a secluded oasis surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, colorful flowers and swaying palms. The heated private pool, complete with a soothing waterfall, provides the perfect setting for a refreshing swim or an afternoon spent soaking up the Florida sunshine. The beautifully landscaped backyard is exceptionally private, offering a rare sense of seclusion where you can truly unwind and enjoy your own little piece of paradise without the outside world in view.

Just beyond the main house, a charming detached cottage provides a second bedroom and full bath, making Key West Oasis especially appealing for two couples traveling together or guests who appreciate a little extra space and privacy. With its impressive 20-foot vaulted ceilings and private open-air shower surrounded by tropical greenery, the cottage offers a wonderful retreat of its own.

Whether you're enjoying a leisurely morning coffee, spending a sun-filled afternoon poolside, exploring the best of Old Town, or returning home after a wonderful evening out, Key West Oasis offers the perfect balance of historic charm, modern comfort and tropical privacy.

Come experience Key West living at its best. Your private oasis awaits!

Once in a lifetime trip

We had an incredible time! The private pool was outstanding. If you do not mind a short walk you are blocks away from Duval. We had on and off weather but access to our own private pool made the trip.

True Oasis!

The name perfectly describes this space, an OASIS. When coming back here from the busy Duvaul Street it is a welcoming pleasure to relax in the pool and unwind with soft sounds of the waterfall while enjoying the lush greenery. Will be staying here again!

Fantastic vacation home!

Everything about this vacation home is top shelf! We loved the beautiful décor, well appointed kitchen and comfortable bedrooms--we had everything we needed for a GREAT week in Key West. We loved the quiet street, yet within a 5 minute walk of a small grocery store, restaurants and liquor store. The patio and pool are absolutely stunning--on most days of our week we opted to stay in and enjoy drinks poolside vs. heading out to the fun that brought us to Key West in the first place! We enjoyed this home so much that we booked it for next year!

An oasis in paradise!

Key West Oasis is truly that --- an oasis! The place was beautiful, peaceful and a wonderful place to get away. We were traveling with another couple, so the separate cottage was perfect. Everything was great from the beginning of planning our trip. Kim is wonderful to work with and Gary is absolutely a great host upon arrival. He was very helpful in informing us of nearby conveniences and recommending some great restaurants. Oasis made our stay extra special, and we will definitely be back!

Wonderful and Relaxing

The property is exactly as described and as illustrated by online photos. All the other online reviews confirm that this place is simply wonderful, clean and perfect for couples. We spent most of our time enjoying the secluded pool and patio. The owner was accommodating and responsive. The property manager was prompt and a pleasure to meet with upon our arrival. Our stay was relaxing and everything we hoped for. We would absolutely consider staying at KWO again in the future.

Happy family get away

My husband and I joined our son (US Navy) and daughter-in-law for a workweek get away. Arrived on Monday afternoon and departed Saturday morning. Everything was cozy and comfortable. Cooking was easy and lots of room to rest, play cards, enjoy sips by the pool and just relax. Nice place to spend family time with each couple having their own private space. Would do again, but a different time of year.

Great Property!

Key West Oasis was nothing short of perfect! We had one little maintenance hiccup on day one. But not to worry- It was taken care of IMMEDIATELY! The service and communication were spot on! the property was immaculately clean. The main area of Duval Street was about 8-9 blocks away. So very convenient. We would definately stay here again.

Paradise Found

We recently returned from seven glorious days at the Key West Oasis. The property is beautiful and truly felt like our home away from home. The decorating touches are perfect and reflect the fun, carefree and colorful attitude that is Key West. We especially loved the pool and lanai areas, and the cottage in back with the outdoor shower. The kitchen is well-equipped beyond the essentials and the gas grill was put to good use. The Key West Oasis lives up to the pictures we saw online. We have already recommended the property to friends and we will return.

Perfect house!!

Stunning home in a quiet neighborhood that is within walking distance to most everything or just a short bike ride. The house is stocked with all necessities and more! The only issue with the house is it is too nice. We didn't want to leave. 🙂

Surpassed all expectations and is truly an "Oasis"

With nearly a year of planning, we had worked up high expectations for our Key West vacation. Stepping in the door, and being immediatly greeted by the local homeowner's representative; we knew that we were in paradise. The upscale, island decor both indoors and outdoors. The private spa like pool with all the amenities, led to days of relaxation. This has truly earned its cottage name, "Key West Oasis". Thank you for the great memories. We WILL be back!
