I have thoroughly enjoyed ...

I have thoroughly enjoyed staying at Southwinds this past week!!! My husband and I along with our son and his friend came to Key West for the 1st time from West Virginia. We stayed a whole week here. I can’t tell you enough how incredibly WONDERFUL all the people are who work here (Kia or Kya and Cleon especially!!) Housekeeping was on top their game every day. The breakfast was perfect for our family to get our days going. The coffee was sooooo good!! All the front desk girls were so friendly and welcoming every single time I walked through the doors at the lobby. I felt like part of a family after just a couple days here. Don’t let the older vibe of this place scare you. They take such great care of the grounds and the rooms. If it’s old but clean- I’m impressed and thankful! We did have 2 minor mishaps happen while here. I will not be naming what happened because those things could happen anywhere, even our own homes BUT they made both things right RIGHT AWAY, within minutes. The LOCATION IS SPOT ON HERE ALSO!! What a great place to stay and be around everything but enough away from the Duvall noise to enjoy some quiet time too. THANK YOU SOUTHWINDS for making us feel like we were home all week!!! 🤍 We WILL be back. All my love to you!

Avoid room 31. The room was spacious, the beds are comfy, the towels are soft, and the staff is very helpful. The grab and go breakfast is pretty nice! But our air conditioner was woefully undersized for the size of our room. When we looked at all of the window units, the one in room 31 was considerably smaller than the other units, like the original one gave out and they bought too small of a replacement. The manager gave us two fans, and that helped, but after being on the water all day, having a tepid room made for a miserable night of sleep. I would stay there again, but if the air wasn’t working, I’d be more vocal than I was this time.

One of the nicest ...

One of the nicest and cozy places I have been in Key West, we like original Island logging setups and this place meet our expectations, 2 nice pools, plenty of parking space, even though there is a daily fee for parking is worth it and moderate compare with the parking anywhere in the island that is by Park meter, kids friendly, 2 pools, very close to Duval, only one block, if you are a walker is feasible or otherwise you can ask front desk for arranging a scooter or golf cart for you, and get a discount comperable to getting by yourself, we stay a full week, we will also recommend the Siboney Restaurant that offers Cuban cuisine that is also very close to the hotel, or the Cuban food truck for a more casual and light dining, overall great everything

We stayed here on ...

We stayed here on the recommendation from a friend. This is a no frills small motel located in old town on the southern end of the island. The rooms were clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. Cold continental breakfast each morning in the lobby was a plus too. There is 2 pools on the property and neither one of them was ever full when we went. An added bonus is the Tipsy Rooster bar and liquor store is attached to the motel. There was live music everyday starting in the early afternoon. We will definitely be staying at the South Winds on our next trip to Key West.
