About this property

Valhalla - Southernmost Oasis

  • **Valhalla – Private Pool Cottage in the Heart of Old Town Key West**

    Originally built in the early 1900s, **Valhalla** is a beautifully renovated historic Conch cottage that blends classic Key West charm with modern comforts. Its unique Norwegian name adds history and character to this special island retreat.

    Located just two blocks from both Duval Street and the beach, this charming two-bedroom, two-bath home places you within easy walking distance of world-class restaurants, lively bars, art galleries, shopping, beaches, museums, and many of Key West's most popular attractions. After a day of exploring, return to your own private tropical oasis where you can relax, recharge, and truly experience island living.

    Inside, the home has been thoughtfully renovated while preserving its historic character. Cathedral ceilings, Dade County Pine details, wood floors, French doors, quartz countertops, beautifully updated bathrooms, and tasteful coastal furnishings create a bright, welcoming atmosphere.

    Start your mornings on the inviting front porch with a cup of coffee while enjoying one of Old Town's favorite pastimes—people watching. Then set out to explore the island on foot, knowing everything you want to see is just minutes away.

    **Your Private Tropical Oasis**

    The backyard is where you'll likely spend much of your vacation. Surrounded by mature tropical landscaping, the private heated pool is the perfect place to cool off after a day of sightseeing or simply relax beneath the Key West sunshine.

    Stretch out on one of the four loungers, float in the pool, or unwind on the oversized round daybed. When you're ready to cool off, the covered, roofed veranda offers a welcoming extension of the home's living space, complete with comfortable seating, a dining table for up to eight guests, and a Weber gas grill. It's the perfect spot for leisurely breakfasts, alfresco dinners, evening cocktails, or simply enjoying the gentle island breeze. Whether you're soaking up the sun or escaping it, this private outdoor living space is designed for making the most of island life.

    **Comfortable Island Living**

    French doors open from the pool area into the bright, open living room, where cathedral ceilings and comfortable furnishings create an inviting place to gather after a day on the island. Watch your favorite show on Smart TV’s, curl up with a good book, or simply enjoy the seamless indoor-outdoor living that makes Key West so special.

    Just off the living area is a fully equipped, functional kitchen featuring quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and everything you'll need whether you're preparing a quick breakfast before heading to the beach or a full dinner at home. The open pass-through keeps the kitchen connected to the dining and living areas, making it easy to stay part of the conversation while meals are being prepared.

    From the kitchen, a short hallway leads to the sleeping quarters. The first bedroom features a comfortable queen bed dressed in crisp linens, a Smart TV, and generous closet space. Conveniently located between the two bedrooms is a full bathroom with a tub/shower combination. At the end of the hallway, the second bedroom also offers a queen bed, Smart TV, ample storage, and its own private en-suite bathroom with a tub/shower combination.

    For additional sleeping accommodations, the living area features a **queen-size sleeper sofa**, allowing Valhalla to comfortably accommodate **up to six guests**. With two comfortable bedrooms, a queen sleeper sofa, and two full bathrooms, Valhalla offers a flexible layout that’s ideal for couples traveling together, groups of friends, or families looking to enjoy Key West together.

This sweet, little cottage looked exactly like the pictures shown. The property was clean and we felt like we were in our own little paradise at the private pool. While the pool is on the smaller side, it worked for our small family. All of the essentials were there, and we only needed to pick up groceries (we rented a car). It was within walking distance to Duval Street (although Duval St isn't exactly teen/family friendly imho) but also walkable/bikeable to everywhere on the island. We walked twenty minutes down the street before Duval to the Fury for the all-day water adventure (highly recommend for those with older kids). The beds, pillows, and bedding were clean and very comfortable. I don't believe we've ever stayed in a cleaner more comfortable VRBO. You won't regret renting this home.
