    I’ve stayed here before and it’s very relaxing in the cottage style hotel. Love the air conditioning bar and morning breakfast.

    Not being able to check in past midnight and having to pay for a room somewhere else for August 9. And not receiving a refund for the lighthouse it expedia. This was caused for weather delay. The Lighthouse was nice but probably wouldn't stay again.

    We loved our recent stay at the Lighthouse Hotel for our first Key West visit! It was adorable, clean, comfortable, and centrally located. The grounds were beautiful and the room was perfect for the two of us! I would highly recommend!

    Great atmosphere and vibe. Eddie and Jefferson were delightful although we understand they were leaving shortly after our stay :( Pool was a little small and our room was tight especially the shower, but we fully recognize the property is older and it was updated with a great modern feel!

    Always a treat to stay there. Great location, quiet property, comfortable rooms.

    My wife and I both have handicap placards. The staff gave us a room that was 1st floor and by the pool so we had easy access for my wife and her wheelchair. We were close to Isabels which made breakfast and drinks easy to get. The location isn Key west is perfect whether you visit the buoy or head down Duval to the other end. The staff was very friendly and volunteered plenty of info. I have stayed here before and would not consider another location in Key west due to its location and overall atmoshere. This polace is great and a 10+ nothing

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Lovely property, very lush and private. Yet close to everything especially the lighthouse and the Hemmingway house. Plenty to do lots of great bars and restaurants.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The location is perfect. We walked everywhere from there. Nothing

    Excellent location and such a lovely little vibe. It felt personal and cozy and luxuriously tucked away from the crowds yet right in the heart of downtown. Perfect perfect perfect. There were some unfortunate design aspects. The breakfast offering was lovely, but all the food in the corner creates a bottleneck and awkward crowd flow. Splitting the food and place it on either side of the entrance, against where the coffee is and on the other side. That room needs to have a path of flow. Nobody wants to navigate and negotiate for space with strangers before they’ve even had their morning coffee. In the rooms, the furniture and fixtures overwhelm the quaint, historic rooms. The bedside lamps are way too big for the space, the on/off switches were not accessible from the bed. There was not ample towel hanging fixtures. The armoire was a great piece, but oversized for the room and offered limited, awkward storage with limited access. I’m sure these “design” items felt clever and looked “cool” with the theme- but design is about solving problems, not creating them. If you ever decide to renovate, hire someone who understands functional design instead of picking out cool pieces for funky style- the right designer can elegantly strike a balance with both.
