Great boutique hotel! The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the location was perfect—just one block from Duval Street, with restaurants nearby. Breakfast was also better than I expected! Live music by the pool (afternoon and during breakfast) and at night was very quiet! Overall, a very pleasant stay!

We flew down to Key West for a much needed relaxing getaway. The location of the Lighthouse is perfect - centrally located and easy to navigate all the island has to offer, yet tucked just off Duval St so you feel like you’re in a quiet area at night. The pool is refreshing and the rooms are small but clean and the entire place has a very island feel. We enjoyed each day and can’t wait to return.

We arrived at Key West about 6 hours before check-in time. I called the hotel and they were kind to let us check-in earlier (with a small fee) we was highly appreciated. We got to enjoy the cool pool and the best cocktails at the bar. The property is very well located , pretty nice looking, rooms are spacious and comfortable. The employees are friendly and very helpful. I will definitely return
