We are on DUVAL STREET but in the most historical gallery district so this puts you close to everything yet in a peaceful place at night. Historical Duval. This area of Duval is truly historical. The street is wider and has the charm of late 1800s. Within minutes of walking to the Southernmost Point which has a webcam that can be viewed 24/7 so wave home or hold a sign and share the memories (southernmostwebcam) Duval Street is approx. 1 miles long from Atlantic Ocean to Gulf of Mexico. New free DUVAL LOOP a bus that encircles Duval with 16 stops. Ends the need for taxis, pedicabs, and walking to get anywhere near your stay on Duval Street. Most all bike rentals are 10 dollars a day (I personally think renting a bicycle is the best option) The best beach in Key West would be FT. Zachary it does have a fee because it is a Nat'l Park and it has a civil war fort to explore as well. (perfect to see the sunset and a wonderful beach that is never over crowded). Our personal favorite adventure is Danger Charters You can enjoy a romantic sunset sail on an auhthentic sailboat that serves quality wines from all over the world and great cheese and orderves. Please note that parties or events are not acceptable at Mermaid Cove. Mermaid Cove is rented as entire compound. We will not rent cottages separately.
