Patio Lounge w/ Hot Tub • 1 Block to Duval St | Casita de Catherine by AvantStay

Casita de Catherine is a hidden Key West gem that sleeps 4 guests with a king bed in the bedroom and a sleeper sofa in the living room. This single-level home has no stairs, making it perfect for travelers of any age. Enjoy island life like a local in this cozy cottage on a quiet street, complete with a welcoming outdoor space and private hot tub for laid-back entertaining.

The rear entry opens through French doors into a quaint interior with rich terracotta flooring through the kitchen and living areas. Rustic wooden cabinets are stocked with everything needed for a home-cooked meal, while the living room offers a comfortable sleeper sofa for additional guests. Just off the living room, behind a beautiful glass-paneled door, the inviting king-sized canopy bed provides a restful place to unwind.

Enjoy this private home of a local author, set on the island where writers write, roosters crow, and the sun shines. Located less than one block off Duval Street, near the famous La Te Da restaurant and bar, and just a few blocks from The Southernmost Point, Casita de Catherine offers a charming home base in the heart of Key West.

Key West is the place to visit the lively nightlife and relax in the historic charm, flamboyance, and conch-style architecture that early Bahamian settlers made famous. It embodies a clash of the past and the present, and every building (including this rental) in Key West reflects this eclectic ambiance!
