We stayed 3 nights in Key West and absolutely loved the place! The room: the room we had was comfy, it had a twin bed, a fridge (highly appreciated), air con, toilets and shower. The real plus was the view from the balcony! Directly in the heart of the beautiful Bahamian village. The owner of the house (a French couple)... More

We loved our stay. Marie could not be sweeter and we were thrilled to be in such a cute place that was so close to everything and allowed our dogs! It was tight with the two of us and our two dogs in our room but it felt very European to me which was fun. I would say that the... More

Stayed one night there - 2 rooms. Rooms were clean - furniture is a mix of old-fashioned and "Kitch" AirCo is placed in the window, and is quite noisy - Bed quality was good - Bathrooms are tiny - shower is about 60 cm x 60 cm. Lady is nice and of good advice - She proposed to change our... More

I chose the Caribbean House based on prior reviews on Trip Advisor. This guest house was "as advertised" and we were very pleased. Yes, the rooms are small, but they are spotless, very tastefully decorated, and quite pleasing to the eye. The location is very convenient, just a few blocks off Duval Street. Much quieter and nicer to get away... More

I don't have a lot of time to write this review because if I said everything I want to say, it would take a long time. Our experience (we had 4 rooms) was positive. We love the place and love Marie. She's a very accommodating and lovable person. The rooms and property are very clean. The room sizes are comparable... More

As some have stated the rooms are small, very small. But we are talking Key West here. I mean how many hours does one spend in their room when visiting Key West. The rooms are well kept and the owners are just plain wonderful. My wife and I love it and the price is right for what you are getting.... More

When we arrived we were so disappointed that we wanted to leave, but after awhile we found that the Caribbean House was pretty much as advertised and it was our expectations that needed adjusting. The rooms were small: "cozy" does not begin to describe a room containing a full queen bed, a 4-drawer dresser, a small refrigerator, two tiny end... More

This place is perfect and I highly recommend staying here. The owner Marie is lovely and very gracious. The rooms are SPOTLESS and very homely. The property is well equipped with coffee machines, ice machines, water machines (all free) and then a seperate fridge with soft drinks and bottled water for $1 each (honestly box). Everything was very convenient, including... More

This is exactly the type of place I always hope to find when travelling independently - cheap, full of character and run by friendly and efficient owners. On arrival, Marie greeted me with a smile, and a free map of the area, pointing out the best bits. The room is small, and maybe not what seasoned package tourists are used... More

What a fantastic find! The rooms were very clean! The location was ideal. The size was perfectly described as "cozy". No exageration! If your looking for a clean, safe, inexpensive place to stay this is your best bet. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. I would definately stay here again.
