What guests say
8.9 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 759 guest reviews
Ambrosia Key West earns strong praise for its unbeatable Old Town location, charming tropical atmosphere, and warm staff, with poolside breakfast a consistent highlight. However, recurring concerns about dated bathrooms, inconsistent breakfast quality, low water pressure in certain suites, and the inconvenience of the split across-the-road accommodation temper the overall experience. Guests seeking a quiet, walkable base in Key West will generally be very satisfied, though those assigned to the secondary building or with comfort-specific needs should book carefully.
