We so enjoyed our stay in this clean, comfortable , bright, quiet home in the beautiful Truman Annex neighborhood of just close enough to the beach and downtown , and the folks we met at the community pool were warm and pleasant.

This unit is very comfortable and offers all the comforts of home. The deck is huge and allows privacy due to all of the beautiful landscaping at Truman Annex. The management team and staff honestly are over the top in their attention and response from the time I booked the property until I checked out. I was absolutely 110% satisfied and I am not usually easy to please.

Staying in the Truman Annex is an easy way to experience Key West. Great location, quiet and well maintained property. The unit was excellent for the 2 of us on a week stay. This is slow season because of the brutal heat, potential for storms and lots of places are closed for the month. Plenty to do though, so if smaller crowds are your thing, this would be a great time.

This sweet bungalow was a vision of deliciousness the moment we stepped in...the color palette was quintessential Key West! Stayed a week and coming "home" after full days was wonderful.

we enjoyed our stay at the Shipyard annex, unit 204-3 was nice and had most of what we needed.

Manager's Response

This condo was perfect and just the right size for us. The location was perfect and close to everything. It was clean and they had everything we needed for our week stay! We will stay again if we come back to Key West!

We've stayed in Truman Annex the last four years and it is a great location. This was perfect for the 2 of us. everything was as described and we loved it.

We did have an issue with the electronic lock on the last day, and while the electronic lock is great - don't have to worry about forgetting a key - when it doesn't work you are locked out with no recourse. Fortunately it was the morning of our departure and we were just getting ready to leave, so we can't comment on how long it might take for something like that to get resolved.

The location of The Good Life is perfect! Close to all the places we like to go. The condo is very small but perfect for two. It was very clean. The bath and kitchen are updated and very nice. Kitchen was well appointed. The furnishings are not good. Sooo outdated and worn. The king bed was very comfortable but needs a headboard that is king size. Queen size doesn't cut it. The carpeting just needs to go away. It's awful. The balcony is lovely! Spacious and so private. Our property manager was great! So helpful and always returned our calls immediately.

We had an amazing trip! The condo was perfect. The pool was great. The Property Manager, Melanie, went above and beyond to help up! We back!!

Our cozy apartment was perfectly located within the Truman Annex . We were just a couple of blocks away from the crowds on Duvall, Mallory Square, and the Fort complex. It was so quiet and peaceful at the annex, and we felt very safe. We weren’t that far from the Harbor Walk and walked there as well for our snorkel trip. When we needed a ride to Smathers Beach or elsewhere, we hailed an Uber or taxi. The apartment was clean and well furnished. We enjoyed being able to make our own breakfast and coffee in the morning. Having a washer and dryer was helpful as well.

Great experience. The property manager was on top of any question we had. The unit was stocked better than we have ever had. Great location.

Manager's Response

The home was beautifully decorated, comfortable, and quite private for being in a complex. Great location for staying on foot/bike for the whole week. Property manager was very quick and attentive to my questions...highly recommended!

Very nice townhome in a central location.

This was our second year staying at Uptown Funk for the month of November and it was excellent. From the cozy layout to the convenient location, it was perfect for us and a few friends to unwind and enjoy all that Key west has to offer. From the week of offshore racing to the fantastic talent at Key West Comedy Club, and all the fantastic places to dine it was a blast! We have been coming to Key West for decades and really enjoyed this spot. Best Of Key West was very helpful with the booking process as well as their concierge service who made our stay more interesting. As owners of several investment rental properties in CT., it is refreshing to have a company manage their properties this well. We will most certainly be returning to Key West!

Manager's Response

What an incredible stay at Uptown Funk! The house is perfectly outfitted and beautifully decorated. It had absolutely everything we needed for a peaceful, relaxing, and ideal vacation. It's in an incredible location-easily walkable to everything--with comfortable beds, luxurious housewares, and tons of charm. We had plenty of room and privacy for our group and would not hesitate to book there again!

We are seasoned monthly renters for Key West. We've been renting the month of January for 12 years now and have stayed in all the desirable areas (Casa Marina, Seaport District, Old Town, Mid Town, Upper Duval, Lower Duval, you get the point. And we have stayed in various styles of homes of which all had their own private pools. This was the first January ever that we flew down so did not have a car and the first time we rented a property that did not have a pool. Due to the amazing location of this townhouse, we did not miss either! So let's start there. This is by far the best location of any property we have ever rented. Everything you need is literally just steps away, yet being tucked away on a one-way street you feel like you are in quiet suburbia. The grocery store (Fausto's) is about a 90 second walk down the street. Great restaurants are just as close. Our favorite two spots (Date and Thyme and Old Town Bakery are just up the street). The Funky Rooster Coffee House and Wine Bar is about a five minute walk away and getting to the water is only another minute or two from there. We also rented bikes for our stay which put the entire island at our fingertips. As for the townhouse itself, big props to whoever designed it as they thought of everything. The feel is very island chic with a kitchen that looks like it should be on a magazine cover. The primary bedroom / bathroom with laundry is upstairs (extremely well done) but the walk up is nothing and the rooms up there are bright and airy (two skylights) and very spacious. The bedroom has room darkening shades on the skylights and the bed is as comfortable as they come! Such a nice retreat. Two more bedrooms with a shared bath on the second floor are good sized too and one has a small balcony giving you views of palm trees and the patio below. Speaking of, we spent a lot of time out on the private front patio and had our breakfast and lunch out there nearly every day. There are three other townhomes here and everyone has their own patio out front. We met all the neighbors during our stay and that is part of why we enjoyed this place so much. Such nice neighbors and very respectful of space and sound. This is not a loud party place. The neighbors are full time residents, pretty much stay to themselves but could not have been more friendly. One has an older dog named Simba who we got to know well and we still check up on her today. All in all, I cannot recommend this place enough. Just don't book it for January as this will be our new spot until we finally buy something :)

The unit and view were absolutely incredible. The pools were amazing and very quiet. The complex was well maintained and we appreciated the grocery carts and luggage racks. A few things to note, the unit once had a lanai that has now been enclosed and is being used for storage such as towels and pool supplies. This was once the secondary downstairs bedrooms outside access, the slider still remains, but cannot be opened due to the items on the other side and has curtains that remain permanently closed, leaving the bedroom with no natural light. Also, as other reviews have stated, the bathroom for that room has no hot water (it doesn’t get more than luke warm). The stairs to the second floor are very steep and honestly quite dangerous. Lastly, the AC dripped terribly. It left puddles on the floor under some of the vents and in other areas (such as the master bedroom) the dripping sound made sleeping difficult. Lastly, we requested an early check-in as our flight arrived early in the morning. Although the unit was unoccupied the previous day before our stay, the unit was not made available to us early as requested. Also, you have to meet the property manager there to get keys and door code. I prefer a contactless check-in and found that part unnecessary.

The property was beautiful and the pictures are accurate. We had plenty of room and a great view each morning. The property manager kept in touch via text, but we encountered no issues.

This is a lovely condominium. Just a scene in the online pictures. It was clean and nicely laid out. Our only complaint is that the hot water for showers never got more than lukewarm. We contacted the property manager and he came out but advised that the thermostat was set at 140 and left it at that. Quiet part of town, located just off of Higgs beach (about a 3 minute walk). Definitely need a car or golf cart to get around. We enjoyed our stay. One last thing, beware of biting bugs on patio. Definitely use bug spray.

Manager's Response

Awesome rental. Only downfall was the pool on the east end. It was like getting into a hot tub the water was so hot. Doesn’t need to be heated in September with the temperature was a 100 or more.

Manager's Response

The condo was wonderful. It was clean, in a great location, and had all of the amenities one would want while staying away from home. Dan was very responsive and we were able to get in earlier than expected. Thanks for making our birthday week a good one.

Manager's Response

Our recent stay at this vacation rental was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we booked, the property manager, Dan, went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Traveling with our mothers, both in their 80s, meant we needed some specific necessities. Dan was incredibly responsive and accommodating, arranging for our Amazon order to be ready and waiting upon our arrival. His professionalism and attentiveness truly set the tone for a wonderful stay.
The property itself exceeded our expectations. The rental was just as described—if not better! It was spacious, impeccably clean, and beautifully maintained. The grounds of the condo development were well-kept, with daily cleaning ensuring everything was always pristine. We particularly enjoyed the two stunning pools, which we had almost exclusively to ourselves throughout our stay—an unexpected luxury!
Everything about our experience was flawless. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this property to others seeking a relaxing and high-quality vacation spot.

Manager's Response

The condo was large, bright and clean. We enjoyed the balcony the most. Amazing views and walking distance to the best beach we found. The pool was basically private for our group our entire trip. Checking out at 10 am was a little rough but I'm sure they need that time to clean so it's just as perfect for the next guest. Beds are a little firm for us but that's a personal preference. Also would recommend adding a baking sheet to the nicely appointed kitchen. Overall, we had a great time and were extremely pleased with our choice of accomodations.
