Southernmost House

Great experience the history of this house is unbelievable. The staff was very friendly, and the manager was super nice. She gave us a great history story of the house. If you ever are visiting Key West you must stay here. Awesome will come back for sure

The hotel's history and architecture are so interesting. We arrived early and were able to check in. The front desk and all the staff we met were friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and comfortable and made up every morning. Being as this is a small hotel, it is very quiet. The heated pool was never crowded. In the evening, we were able to walk just past the pool and watch the most beautiful sunset. Breakfast was quite good with fresh fruit, savory and sweet pastries, boiled eggs, yogurt, juice, and of course, coffee. There is a bar and grill within steps of the hotel. The Zero Marker is now next door, but you are never bothered by the sightseers. The only negative is a lack of elevator, and we were on the third floor - got our steps in!

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at the Southernmost House Key West over the Thanksgiving holiday. Best Location in Key West in our opinion. : ) We did it right and booked the lovely 2nd floor king room with the large oceanfront balcony overlooking the sea and the infinity pool. And....... What a view! The room was spacious with a beautiful antique four poster bed which was extremely comfy and the sheets were so soft! The A/C worked beautifully and there was a dehumidifier in the room which was GENIUS! : ) The weather was perfect our entire stay, the daily "continental" Breakfast included was extremely satisfying with the most heavenly pastries - sweet as well as savory, bountiful fresh fruit, yogurt, cereal, breads, hard boiled eggs and coffee with instrumental music piped into the breakfast room. A small fridge was available 24/7 with plenty of bottled waters available for the guests. The pool was clean and quiet with plenty of loungers w/umbrellas for guests. The pool towels available could have been more plentiful -- they seemed to run out by day's end and with the pool access to guests being 24/7, I would have enjoyed an evening swim, but there were no more fresh towels. The onsite restaurant and bar adjacent to the mansion is excellent - drinks were fresh and strong, service attentive and the food was always tasty.

No real complaints here by any means but just a few possible suggestions for the future: For whatever reason, there was always a "maintenance" person in the breakfast room between 8:00am - 10:00am which is when the breakfast is served, and I think that sweeping, drilling, washing windows, etc. could be curtailed to before or after that time as a courtesy to the dining guests. This is an Adult Only property and would have been nice to have bathrobes available in guest rooms and maybe even champagne mimosas offered at breakfast to elevate the "romance" factor or overall experience.

Finally, cudos to all of the staff members who were always courteous and helpful - and a special thanks to the night manager, Dean and the day manager, Judith (she was kind enough to be able to extend our stay for a later checkout!) Nice people to have on staff.
We are already planning our next getaway to Key West, and we will definitely be back to this lovely gem!

The staff were very nice. The place was nice and quiet. The room was spacious and clean. The location was very easy to find and walkable to places. We would definitely revisit the place.

The Southernmost House was a wonderful place for our trip! It is located close to the Southernmost Point Buoy. We walked to restaurants when we didn’t eat at the hotel’s diner; which the food was delicious plus the service was top notch. We walked straight up Duvall Street all the way to Mallory Square. So many things to see and experience!

The beauty and history of the hotel was so alluring. Our first trip to Key West, 5 years ago, was fun, but we discovered the Southernmost House and vowed to stay there when we returned. It did not disappoint.

The rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable. Access was good as we were on the first floor.

Breakfast was amazing as they had all kinds of fruits, proteins and pastries. All situated on the east side of hotel overlooking the pool and Atlantic Ocean. We chose to eat outside on the patio overlooking the same view.

The staff were really mindful, professional and took care of everything we could have imagined.

We will stay there again!!!

We had a great stay. Beautiful hotel in a very convenient location. The pool area and restuarant are great and all of the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Truly the most magical experience that I have ever had in Key West. I was there on my honeymoon visiting. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay absolutely amazing. The place is beautiful and it's so relaxing. Sitting in the pool and being able to look out over the ocean was just incredible!

We were really surprised as well as thankful to be upgraded to the Main House and specifically, Room -#107. It was the best.

Will definitely be coming back. We loved Dean. The room was beautiful and clean. Beautiful breakfast. Loved it!

Everything was amazing. Very attentive staff, especially Dean. Gorgeous property.

This place was awesome! The accommodations were very comfortable and clean. We initially booked 5 nights, but had to move out for the last 2 due to someone buying out the entire house for a birthday party. The management was very helpful getting us relocated, even though it was a hassle. The only issue was that on the evening before we left, we found that the maid had left us with dirty coffee cups and glasses. She also failed to fill up our soap in the shower. No biggie, just want management to know it. It was actually such a non issue we forgot to tell the manager ourself. Highly recommend this place!

This was our honeymoon destination! We picked the perfect place! Upon our arrival, our room was ready early and they had a bottle of champagne waiting on us in our room! We took advantage of all they had to offer. The pool was perfect and the bar and restaurant on the property were excellent! All the staff is friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!

The Southernmost House, was beautiful, and the staff was wonderful. The complimentary breakfast was very good and had many options to choose from. They always had cold bottles of water for all who stayed there, and the outside porches were just wonderful to relax on at all times of the day

Friendly staff and clean room

We had booked a trip to Key West for our anniversary and were supposed to stay in one of the oceanfront bungalows. Upon our arrival they informed us that our room was not available due to a roof leak so the entire ceiling had been torn out and the space was unusable. We were very disappointed as we were really looking forward to spending time chilling out overlooking the ocean.

They offered us the use of the one bedroom apartment in the Lopez house. We expected to be pretty bummed out by it since it did not have an ocean view but it ended up being an absolutely wonderful space and we had a terrific time. We sat on one of the side porches and got in some great people watching instead of the ocean. There were some renovations happening elsewhere in the building so we had the place almost all to ourselves.

The apartment was very nicely appointed with a full kitchen ( even an icemaker!), large rooms and comfortable high quality furnishings. The addition of a coffee table would help.

The manager Alex and the staff really bent over backward to help us so we really appreciated all their efforts. They even gave us a nice break on the price for our inconvenience so we’re happy campers.

We went there for our honeymoon! We were in the poolside cabana 103 right next to the pool. Amazing view! I loved all of the roosters and hens. Great drinks and food at the seaside restaurant. Belkis did a great room on cleaning the room. This is truely a great place to stay and we will be back. Pool was quiet and very clean. This place is for people who want peace and quiet vs. a 24/7 party.

Very beautiful place to stay in Key West. Will stay here again if we return.

The historic feel of the mansion makes it quite romantic and quaint. We loved our stay. And the staff was fabulous!

We absolutely loved the Southernmost House! From start to finish, our experience was nothing short of amazing. The location is perfect, with incredible views and easy access to everything. The staff were beyond friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The pool was beautiful, the breakfast was delicious, and every detail was truly A+. We enjoyed our time here so much and can’t wait to come back again. This hotel is a gem—we definitely recommend it!

This was our first visit to Key West. I initially chose this resort due to its view of the ocean, and location/proximity to Duval Street. Our room was on the second floor of the mansion, and was spacious and quiet, furniture was comfortable and beautiful, the view was wonderful. We had a coffeemaker, microwave and refrigerator in our room. We had direct access to a porch outside our room. Our room and all common areas were very clean. There is no elevator in the mansion, so we had to use stairs to get to the second story location of our room. We were always offered assistance for anything from moving luggage to arranging transportation. My only (minor) annoyance was the noise from the de-humidifier and a/c. I turned off both at night and the room stayed very comfortable. Parking for the resort is limited, there is a nnightly fee for parking, even for golf carts. I'm glad we rented a golf cart, as getting around Key West in a full-sized vehicle would be difficult. The staff members at the Mansion by the Sea were very accommodating and friendly. We arrived before official check-in, but since our room was ready, they permitted us to check-in. The breakfast buffet was extensive, fresh fruit, pastries, breakfast sandwiches, etc. The cafe next door on the waterfront was great in every way, servers friendly, food delicious. There are many dining options within walking distance. WiFi worked well, as my husband attended a meeting via Zoom and had no issues with connectivity.
