What guests say
9.1 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 258 guest reviews
Key West Harbor Inn consistently earns high praise for its prime walkable location near the harbour, warm and personable staff (particularly Tracy and Kristen), and the charming tropical atmosphere complete with a saltwater pool and complimentary happy hour. A small number of guests noted practical drawbacks — occasional noise, an AC failure, and some rooms being compact or awkwardly shaped — but these were exceptions in an otherwise glowing body of reviews. Overall sentiment is strongly positive, with many guests returning specifically for the boutique, adults-only experience.
