Perfect for two couples or just you!

I had never been to Key West before and looked all over trying to "figure out" where exactly to stay. I didn't want to be TOO close to Duval, but did want to be able to ride bikes there easily. The Key West Oasis was just right. It's on a quiet street, but you're close to everything. Also, the house and the "pool room" are just beautiful. The pictures online (although beautiful) just can't do it justice. The pool has a waterfall that is so relaxing and although the pool looks small, it is deep and there is plenty of room. Our friends stayed in the cabana room and were hesitant of the outdoor shower. It turned out that they loved it and I was a little jealous. :)
The entire process was so easy! Kim sent me lots of insider's information and when I got there, Gary was there to greet us and give us any last minute information we needed before heading out to town. We ate and ate and ate, never having a bad meal. We tried to go to the places that wouldn't be considered touristy and found that Sandy's (super casual for a sandwich, breakfast or whatever) was awesome, Blue Heaven (heaven), Sarabeth's (delicious), Seven Fish (again, delicious) and Santiago's was the best meal we had. We also took a boat over to Stock Island for "Hurricane Hole" for lunch. This is just an outside bar/restaurant but the food was so good. Oh and we had drinks at Louie's Backyard and amazing dessert at BTS.
After all this, and the "fun" of Key West, coming home to Key West Oasis was like a treat. It was so tranquil with the decorations, foliage and pool and couldn't have been cleaner. The only reason I don't want to give this 5 stars is so that I can keep it to myself! They will take great care of you!
