We had some trouble with Bugs in our unit and an entire day was messed up due to 2 different elevators being broken and we were on the 5th floor. We had an 80 year old and a 15 month only....so we really neededbthe elevator

Best Location in Key West
We have been coming down to Key West for years and this was my favorite place we have stayed! The location is amazing and ideal for easy access to the heart of Key West. The balcony and view of the Seaport was the best part and something we have never experienced in Key West before.
It was the best way to start and end the day. A hidden gem of the property is the deck below the pool area where it gave us prime viewing for the iconic Key West sunset each night. Our flight was delayed by 7 hours getting into Key West and the property was amazing in accomodating our later then expected arrival. The booking process and communication with the host was one of the best I have experienced with using VRBO. We could not speak more highly of our time there!

Great Location
The location was amazing and we had a great view of the water. The only complaints are the room was not ready at 4pm but we were able to store our bags in the room next to the reception desk and walk around. And the shower in the master bath is extremely hard to get in and out of as others have mentioned. It is a huge step over the side of the tub.

Perfect Location
Wonderful view from porch of the harbor. Right at the start of the Key West Board walk restaurants / shops. Only two blocks away from the top of Duval St. Mallory Square is close by too. Definitely a great location for Key West activities. Can rent scooters right next door at the Hyatt. Stop by the Galleon activities room first for discount coupons.

Galleon
The property was well-kept but in need of some updating. We had three couples sharing the space and failed to realize that one of the sleeping spaces was not a bedroom, therefor no privacy but that was our fault for not reading the property description more closely. The washing machine was a nice perk but it did leak. The resort itself was great! Perfect location on a harbor with plenty of retail and restaurants within walking distance. Excellent location for sunsets!

Nice and convenient for everything to do and see. Unit was well equipped. Only negative is getting into the shower. The step up into the enclosure could give some trouble if you are not in good shape.

Key West April 2024
The stay was great. We’ve stayed in this Galleon unit before. Ed needs to invest some money in minor repairs/upgrades. One sink in the master bath barely drained, the whirlpool tub shower is impractical and dangerous to get in and out of, balcony doors are missing rubber stops, spiral stairs need paint and the furniture is dated. Just needs some TLC :)

Key West Marina Long Weekend
Key West hasn't disappointed yet. The condo was very nice and roomy enough for the five of us - 2 couples and a single adult. Despite being "close to the action", the unit was very quite when the doors / windows were closed. 10am check out is a little brutal in Key West, but understandable based on the size of the units that need to be readied for the next reservation. We would stay at this unit again.

Excellent except
We only had one complaint by our group and the master bathroom has a spa tub and shower. For us short and 40+ age group getting in and out of the spa tub/shower combo could possibly be considered a safety issue. The spa tub shower combo entry/exit is approximately eighteen inches off the ground with a twelve inch ledge to step across, one leg at a time, to actually step from the outside of the tub down into the tub for showering or bathing. Stepping into the tub there is a grab bar that can be used to pull yourself in, but stepping out of the tub a person is stepping down eighteen inches with that twelve inch ledge to stretch across. We found the safest way to get in and out of the spa tub/shower combo was to sit on the 12 inch ledge and swing our legs around to get in the tub. Needless to say not the most hygienic way to enter and exit the tub/shower. Also, for older individuals the loft has the spiral staircase making it a little tough carrying luggage up to it.
