The shared pool in a tropical courtyard offers a relaxing escape just steps from Key West’s restaurants, shops, galleries and nightlife.



    The Space:

    Stay directly on Duval Street in the heart of Old Town Key West. Sailfish Suite is a spacious, beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath retreat with two king bedrooms, historic character, a private connecting balcony and access to a tropical shared courtyard pool.



    Set above the popular Grand Café, the suite puts restaurants, galleries, shops and nightlife just outside your door. Look out over Duval Street, walk to many of Key West’s best-known attractions and return to the comfort of your own retreat between adventures.



    Historic character and room to relax



    Tall windows fill the main living area with natural light while original hardwood floors and detailed woodwork preserve the character of this historic Key West building.



    The open room offers several comfortable chairs for relaxing, a wall-mounted TV and a dining table with seating for five. It’s a welcoming space for sharing breakfast, planning the day or winding down together in the evening.



    Kitchenette



    The well-equipped kitchenette includes a two-burner cooktop, microwave, under-counter refrigerator, sink, toaster, drip coffee maker and Keurig. There is ample counter and cabinet space for preparing breakfast, lunch, snacks and lighter dinners during your stay.



    Two king bedrooms



    Bedroom 1 is located directly off the living room and kitchenette. It features a king bed, large wall-mounted TV, writing desk and an original decorative fireplace with colorful tilework. This bedroom uses the full bathroom within the main portion of the suite.



    The private connecting balcony leads to Bedroom 2, an exceptionally spacious room with an ornate four-poster king bed, large wall-mounted TV, dresser, wardrobe and private en suite bathroom. Bedroom 2 also has its own entrance from the stairwell closest to the pool.



    Each bedroom has its own Keurig coffee maker with coffee supplies. This distinctive layout gives both bedrooms privacy while keeping them connected as one suite.



    Connecting balcony



    Furnished with two chairs and a small table, the private balcony connects the two bedrooms and overlooks the Grand Café terrace and Duval Street. It’s a great spot for morning coffee, people-watching or an evening cocktail while taking in the energy of downtown Key West.



    Shared pool



    Guests have access to a small shared pool tucked into a tropical courtyard behind the activity of Duval Street. It’s a refreshing place to cool off and relax after sightseeing, shopping or a day spent exploring Key West.



    Explore Key West



    With Grand Café downstairs and other popular bars and restaurants just steps away, Sailfish Suite places you in the middle of the Duval Street experience. Restaurants, shops, galleries and nightlife surround the property, while Mallory Square, the Historic Seaport and many of Old Town’s best-known attractions are within walking distance.



    Good to know



    Downtown setting: Sailfish Suite is located directly on lively Duval Street above a popular restaurant. Guests should expect the sounds and activity that come with staying in the heart of downtown Key West.



    Suite layout: The two bedrooms are connected by a private outdoor balcony. Guests staying in Bedroom 2 will cross the balcony to reach the living room and kitchenette.



    Pool: Guests have access to a small shared pool in the property’s tropical courtyard. Pool towels are provided.



    Laundry: A shared coin-operated washer and dryer are conveniently located near the pool.



    Access: The suite is upstairs and requires climbing stairs.

Excellent location on Duval St.

This is a great location above the Grand Cafe on Duval. Very spacious rooms that worked out perfectly for our stay. You are right in the heart of Old Town and walking distance to everything. You can just walk down the inside stairs and you are right in the restaurant.

Extremely clean, perfect location, would stay again for sure. Was a little noisy, but worth it for the location. Water pressure in shower not the best, but did not affect us much.

Be aware of significant noise at night. The unit is located above the Grand Café, faces Duval Street, and is directly across from the Hard Rock Cafe, which has live music, along with other nearby venues. Bedroom two in Unit 5 is directly above the restaurant kitchen and can be especially loud.We stayed January 16, 2026. Aside from the noise, the accommodations were nice.
