Key West Bed and Breakfasts

   The Cypress House is listed with the National Register of Historic Places. This 19th century home
still maintains the feeling of days gone by. It was built in 1888 and is one of the finest examples of Bahamian architecture in Key West. It is located just a few blocks from whatever you want to do while visiting the island. Their helpful staff is willing to make suggestions and reservations for dinner or tourist activities at places that meet their strict standards for quality and service. They will arrange snorkeling, kayaking, fishing, diving, sightseeing or dolphin-watching trips for you with the most reputable catamarans or sailboats on the island, (all within a three block walk!) or they will point you to the places to rent moped, jet skis or to go parasailing. Just let them know when you want to go and they will handle the rest. If you want to explore the island at your own pace you can rent bikes right on the premises.

  
Each morning you wake up to an elaborate continental breakfast buffet from 8 to 11 am. Then comes the biggest decision you will have to make all day "What to do next". Should you just lounge by the pool enjoying the warm Key West sunshine. Sipping on a "Key Lime Coolers" served poolside, or maybe get some shopping in. Duval Street is just one block away offering a wide selection of shops. From high end national chains to the small funky local stores. After you get finished with your daytime activities you are in for a real treat with their nightly poolside cocktails with light snacks from 6-7 pm.These occasions is just one of the many reasons people keep coming back to this Key West bed and breakfasts year after year. I very seldom see a guest staying at the Cypress House coming to watch the sunset because of this event.

   Now the sun has gone down and it is time to check out the Key West night life. No matter what you are in the mood for the staff will point you in the right direction. With just about any kind of live music
from jazz to country. Maybe Hemingway's favorite bar Sloppy Joe's. The good thing is you are literally just a short crawling back to the Cypress House. If a more quite time is what you are looking for you can take a leisurely stroll along the Harbor Walk enjoying the soft breezes off the ocean. Catching a little more shopping in or laying out your plans for tomorrow.

Finally you make it back to you room. You will find that they are large, bright, airy and clean, with bodacious bathrooms. Each one is different. Some have one king or one queen bed, others have two queen beds. Furniture styles vary from wicker to an eclectic mix of antiques, but all have A/C's, ceiling fans, TV's and phones. Some have private verandahs or outside sitting areas. Now after a good and well deserved nights sleep you can start all over again. Before I forget for those of you that will be missing your pets. You will find Ben, Gabi and Lady Bug, our two dogs and cat, who are always available to accommodate your petting needs.
