Raccoon Key, Key West hotel rooms at the Independent

"Staff was lovely. Check in and check out we’re both painless and quick. One girl at the front desk upon check in was rude to another guest which was highly inappropriate in front of other guests but switched over to take care of our check in and was very pleasant. Grounds were well kept and clean. Pool area was phenomenal. Loved watching the chickens and lizards and even caught the staff cleaning the grounds early morning talking to the chickens which was cute. Stayed for a week and kept the do not disturb on the door and they did not enter which I loved. We kept our own towels and washcloths washed up as there is a washer and dryer. Kitchen has all the basics. Overall excellent! "

"This property exceeded all expectations & Tommy Morales at the front desk at as amazing!! We rented a one bedroom Suite and it was incredible! They are set up like Condos. Separate dining area, living room with a large sectional with a sofa bed in it as well and a full kitchen. It was all open concept! Also a washer & dryer! It even had a half bath soon as you walked in the room. There is an entryway that requires your key and once you are in there then there are doors to two units, so it’s super safe! The pool view is amazing, if on the 3rd floor you even have a spiral staircase that goes up to a balcony to watch the sunsets. The pool is huge & there is a fair size of sand and beach. If you want to be at a true beach one of the only ones is Truman Waterfront Park; they charge like $2/person. Pack a lunch and go spend the day at the beach & there’s plenty of shade with all the palm trees & picnic tables. They also have grills & iguanas all over the rocks sunning when you first walk in before you get the large beach area. 10/10 recommend this property! "

"We got a room that was above the jet ski rental place. Very private absolutely felt like the presidents suite. Not super fancy, but just great for privacy."

"I love that everything is at arms reach. The pool, beach, restaurants, stores. Everything is a hop skip & a jump. "
