SMUGGLER'S COVE ~ On Duval St, Adult Only, Adjoining Rum Bar & Near Beaches!

PICTURESQUE LANDMARK GUESTHOUSE WITH CELEBRATED RUM BAR...
Steeped in the rich 19th century lore of treasure hunts, romantic rum-running adventures, daring bootleggers, and notorious moonshiners and racketeers, the Smuggler's Cove room within the Speakeasy Inn is nestled in true Key West magic. This unique conch-style adult-only retreat is brimming with authentic stories of derring-do during Prohibition days. The inn was the home of Raul Vasquez, a cigar selector at the local Gato cigar factory, whose true passion was rum running between Key West and Cuba. He cut a colorful swath in this southernmost community, smuggling rum and storing it in his "secret cellar" - one of the few basements in Key West! You are right on Duval Street, renowned for its proliferation of whimsical art galleries, stellar restaurants and relaxing bars. Nestled in the heart of Old Town, you are only a couple blocks from the beach and the Southernmost Point.

The host contacted early to tell you the process and verify contact numbers. The room was really clean. I liked that it was on Duval street but on the quiet end. It was easy to get to places and then relax when you wanted to. The room was as described.

This particular room hidden behind the rum saloon was delightful! Plenty of towels, a refrigerator large enough to hold our bottled waters and leftovers, a very comfortable bed, and a cute sitting area to watch critters peeping in or you watching people walking by. Theres a coffee shop conveniently across the street or you can walk down Duval to Circle K for cheap coffee or make it in your room with the Keurig. The short walk to the south point marker makes it very convenient!
Walkway to room.
