Tropical Dreaming by AvantStay | 4 BLKS to Beach! Private Pool!

Do not look any further! Your perfect vacation home rental is right here! Offering a private pool with lounge chairs and a covered outside porch. You can also bring your Fido!

A distinctive private Key West vacation home with a sparkling private pool, Tropical Dreaming is the classic example of the best of both worlds while vacationing in Old Town. Only a short stroll over to Duval Street, where entertainment and activity abound or 4 blocks to the Atlantic Ocean with shimmering turquoise waters. Two stories of secluded hideaway, Tropical Dreaming has been professionally decorated and furnished and exudes a flair of the islands.

Entering Tropical Dreaming you are greeted by an open floor plan with living room and dining area, while large glass doors open to the private outside area. Open the oversized double glass doors and tropical foliage and breezes surround a sparkling swimming pool with lounge chairs a sanctuary for swimming and sunning or cooling off at the end of the days adventures complete with wet bar and outside dining.

This unique home features a full beautiful kitchen complete with everything you need to create your island fare or a gourmet meal.

Upstairs are two full bedroom suites each with a private bath and ultra-comfy bed to ensure a restful night's sleep. One bedroom has a king bed and the other two twin beds that can convert to a king.

The private 12' X 18' pool is surrounded by typical Key West flora and fauna. An outdoor shower and several chaises invite you to enjoy the sun and tropical weather that Key West is famous for.

Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous. It embodies a clash of the past and the present, and every building (including this rental) in Key West reflects this eclectic ambiance!

AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!

Fantastic Vacation Rental!

The pictures on the website do not do this fantastic home justice! The location was perfect! The private pool was the best part! We swam and tanned by day and went out on Duvall street at night. I highly recommend this vacation rental and can't wait until our next visit! We will definitely be syaying here again!

The only complaint I have is this is not made for 6 people. The pull out couch was very uncomfortable. Pillows were hard. I would have given a better review if everyone in our party could have been comfortable.

Great location with private pool and everything you need!

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights but another couple would also be very comfortable given the second ensuite bedroom. We walked to everything and were very impressed that we didn't even have to go to the grocery store. Will definitely stay here again!

Great location and pool

My toddler absolutely loved the pool and it was the perfect size for our family. The location could not be better…close to the beach and Duval but feels secluded. Everything you would need in the kitchen, and Avant provided a nice welcome gift.

Great location for relaxation

Location was very good, less than a mile to anything we wanted to get to, so we essentially walked everywhere. House was clean and well stocked, we brought a few things that were here (laundry detergent, coffee filters, wine opener). Only minor complaint was that WiFi was fairly inconsistent and dropped us off a lot, not a huge deal since we weren’t here to work but was a minor annoyance. Overall a great property and perfect for 2-4 people.

Avantstay has the worst communication and customer service we have ever experienced in traveling. We will never stay at an Avantstay property again. I feel for the owners of the property putting their trust in housekeepers and Avantstay.
