Fantastic place with lots of space and a waterfall pool. Location is a short walking distance to all the fun of Duval, but in a quiet neighborhood. Our host, Christian, was great. Would book again.

Exceptional Home!
We stayed at the Garden of Emma for my husbands 50th birthday. The outside is even more gorgeous in person than the photos displayed!! You can tell they put thought into the vegetation and maximizing the outdoor lifestyle that KW is known for. What better way after a busy day exploring the island than to have dinner outside under the lighted pergola then jumping into the heated pool surrounded by tropical foliage and colorful orchids?! The kitchen was fully stocked with all new appliances,dishes and cookware. Even had spices and foil ready for our fresh fish grill outs! Super quiet (and beautiful) neighborhood even though it’s just one block from Duval and the park. You can walk to everything downtown. Smart TV’s throughout. Christian, the house manager was super prompt and responsive to any question I had. Justin the realtor was so sweet helping me pull this trip off completely last minute (as in under 36hrs!) Only tiny suggestion I could possibly think of is curtains for the rooms for the few times I would have loved to sleep in. But in all fairness, the sun shining in got us up and out early so we could better maximize our time there. Outside of that, the home was perfect! Will be back!

Exceptional property, exceptional management company
Highly recommend this property. This is our second time staying with Last Key Realty. Management company truly goes above and beyond, checking in with you several times before you arrive, during your stay, and immediately responds if you have any questions or need assistance with anything. Truly exceptional service and ever respect. Very clean property, no Florida smells, great AC. Fantastic location in the Truman IX. Highly recommend.

Probably one of my favorite homes in Truman Annex. This house had everything we needed. The private pool was the selling point for us. Everything you need is in walking distance. We will definitely keep this house on my radar for our next trip. The property management was extremely helpful. 10 out of 10 experience.

Cute house with everything you need
Two couples stayed 1 week. Easy to walk to everything. The house was fully stocked. The only issues we had were the pool would not stay heated, which you need as there is not much sun around the pool. And the internet was not working. The property manager addressed these issues quickly. Would stay again

Description Description
Tranquility. Peace. Relaxation. You’ll find these traits are in abundance at GARDEN OF EMMA. The open and airy interior of this exquisite Key West home will keep your group connected and present, while being the perfect complement to the tranquil, tropical exterior. The spacious backyard is your very own private oasis, complete with a lagoon-style pool and chaise lounges for relaxing in the island sun. Best of all, this home is situated within a private and secure community that’s easily walkable to all the sights and sounds of Old Town. Combined with Last Key Realty’s unrivaled Five-Star Guest Services & In-House Concierge, you’ll find GARDEN OF EMMA has the peace you’ve been searching for.

THE GATED COMMUNITY...

Truman Annex is the most exclusive private residence community in Old Town Key West. Located just off the main drag of Duval Street, Truman Annex is an oasis of calm, quiet streets lined with palm trees and beautiful Floridian homes. The entrance to Truman Annex is secured by a 24-hour staffed guard gate and you can use the residential entry gate keys to come and go on foot at night. Just beyond Truman Annex is the newly constructed Truman Waterfront Park - complete with a family friendly playground area and the Key West amphitheater. While you won’t need a car to get around from this exceptional location, the property does include a designated off-street parking space for 1 vehicle.

THE PRIVATE POOL & GARDEN...

From the moment you step foot onto this special property, you will know where it gets its name. Beautiful orchids occupy nearly every tree that surrounds the property. The lush tropical foliage creates the perfect private setting to enjoy the heated swimming pool and outdoor living space. There are plenty of poolside lounging options to soak up some sun or retreat to the shade. Enjoy an outdoor meal using the propane grill and dining set with seating for 6.

THE LIVING AREA & KITCHEN…

GARDEN OF EMMA has an open floor plan, ensuring quality time with your friends and loved ones is a priority. Whether you’re gathering everyone in the living area to watch your favorite movie on the large flat-screen TV or sitting down to dinner together at the kitchen table with seating for 6, being present in the moment will be your focus. Comfortable seating options fill the living room, including a plush sectional sofa that pulls out to a Queen sleeper. A convenient powder room is located just off the living area.

Just beyond the dining area you’ll find the fully equipped kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances. Cabinets are aplenty, hiding any and every tool the chef of your group may need to prepare their signature dish. The kitchen island doubles as a two-person bistro for those early risers to enjoy a morning cup of coffee.
