Brisa Fresca

The property was fantastic. Extremely clean, had everything you needed and plenty of room for our family of five. The pool was awesome to come home to after a long hot day and the location was perfect close to everything. We would definitely stay at this property again.

Dermot - Posted: 7/6/2024

We loved our stay at Brisa Fresca - very comfortable, exactly as advertised, quiet and great location. We would definitely rent it again.

Alan - Posted: 5/5/2024

Brisa Fresca was incredible! What an amazing home, tucked away in the beautiful Truman Annex. Truly a quiet breeze of fresh air set apart from the busy streets of Key West. Perfect location. Gorgeous & immaculate. Could not have found a better property to host our group. Our new go-to stay in Key West for sure!! Our host, Alena, was so accessible & helpful our entire stay. First-class service all the way!

Michelle - Posted: 4/26/2024

We felt at home immediately! Incredibly convenient to all the sights and sounds. The quiet neighborhood and security was an added plus! We would stay here again and recommended to several of our family and friends. Cleanliness is a top priority and I was extremely pleased with the house upon arrival. We were greeted with key lime pie and coffee with an excellent orientation to the home! Thank you! Lovely home!

Tracey - Posted: 1/10/2024

We stayed January 2024 with our 3 young adult children and a +1. Location was quiet but close enough to Duval for the younger ones to go out in the evening. Home very well appointed. Beds very comfortable. Highly recommend and would stay again if our group was 6-8 people

Susan - Posted: 1/6/2024

This home was well appointed and very comfortable for four adults. Great location, we would stay here again.

Blanche - Posted: 12/29/2023

Our stay was perfect from beginning to end. We like to cook and the kitchen had absolutely everything we needed! The kitchen, bathrooms and appliances all have been recently updated. This property is located just steps from the Coast Guard ship and waterfront and a short walk to Mallory Square and Duvall Street. The house was comfortable and quiet with nice beds. The Master Suite has a walkout balcony overlooking the pool, perfect to have morning coffee and read.

Phil - Posted: 12/18/2023

My family stayed for a week and our experience was amazing. The house, pool and all accommodations were top tier. The house was above expectations and everything we needed was available.

Linda - Posted: 9/20/2023

Perfectly located with loads of room for our family of four. Easy bike rides to everywhere we wanted to go in Key West. Pool and property were well maintained. Was a little taken back when the landscapers and pool guy randomly showed up. However the guest book of the house does say they will be there just not what time. The property manager was extremely helpful and answered all of the questions needed to keep the family having a great time. I appreciate all the help.

Jennifer - Posted: 6/24/2023

Perfect vacation! The house was clean and beautiful. The pool was enjoyed by all. Samantha, with Last Key Realty was incredibly helpful with scheduling our dinners, bike reservations, excursions, and even providing us with requested provisions prior to our arrival. Super easy and seamless! Definitely will visit again.

Sharon - Posted: 4/12/2023

House was great Management folks — Sam—exceptional!

Linda B. - Posted: 12/16/2022

This property is fantastic. We enjoyed the pool and back porch with the ceiling fans. We used the concierge service to stock the house prior to our arrival. Best move ever!

Bill W. - Posted: 12/11/2022

Great experience from beginning to end. Samantha was unbelievably helpful and knowledgeable. The house was clean and updated with any and every amenity would needed. Location and pool were our absolute favorite parts of the house! Hours were spent in that pool. We hope to be back soon!

Jonathan C. - Posted: 8/14/2022

Outstanding property and service. Will definitely be back. Samantha and the Last Key team were the best.

Peter M. - Posted: 7/23/2022

This is an amazing place to stay in Key West. Very clean, modern, and well equipped. It is in an excellent location. We hope to be back soon and will definitely try to stay here.

A wonderful and beautiful property

ka s. - Posted: 11/30/2021

The accommodations where great. Plenty of space and common areas. Fantastic location..nice pool.

Theresa S. - Posted: 11/3/2021

This beautiful home is very well appointed. Kitchen is well stocked. Two gorgeous new bathrooms. The location was perfect for walking to sites and the neighborhood was superior. Last Key Realty has top notch service and are very, very attentive. This was an absolute perfect choice for a birthday week!

Camille D., Fredericksburg USA - Posted: 10/19/2021

Everything was great - house was very clean, equipped kitchen, the outside grill worked well, in the pool morning, noon, and night, quiet neighborhood 4 blocks from Duval. Can't wait to go back and would definitely rent this property again.

Paul G. - Posted: 9/20/2021

100% would stay here again. We came with a family of 8 and had plenty of room. The house was very clean and was supplied with everything (beach towels, cooler, sun screen, bug spray, cups dishes etc) very close to key west’s nicest beach and duval st. Would definitely recommend Shel was fantastic!

Alicia P. - Posted: 8/19/2021

Thank you for choosing to vacation with Last Key Realty! We hope to host you again next time you're in Key West.

Last Key Realty staff

I cannot say enough good things about our recent stay at Brisa Fresca! We’ve rented several homes over the years and this is by far our favorite. The home is clean, wonderfully appointed, nothing overlooked. The pool and outdoor space are beautiful and where we spent the majority of our time. The property management company was fantastic - contacted us the week before and met us at the property at check in to be sure everything was just as we requested. They were available for questions throughout the week. The 6 of us ranging in age from 11-82 were very comfortable. Location cannot be beat - short walking distance to the beach, Duval street and a grocery store. We loved our stay and recommend this property without hesitation!!!

Amy D. - Posted: 8/13/2021

Beautiful house and pool. Shel was very helpful and answered any questions we had. Will definitely stay again!

Rick B., Chicago, US - Posted: 7/18/2021

Thank you for choosing to vacation with Last Key Realty! We hope to host you again next time you're in Key West.

Last Key Realty staff

Great home with plenty of room for my wife, kids and I. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, the pool was very nice. The balcony was very nice for my wife and I to have morning coffee:) The location was perfect, quiet neighborhood and a close walk to all the shops, restaurants, bars, etc. Shel at Last Key Realty and his concierge service was very helpful with questions we had about the keys and with booking some excursions. I would highly recommend this home for families!!

Charles A., Powell USA, - Posted: 4/6/2021

Everything was clean, communication was great.

Trevor S. - Posted: 1/29/2021

The house was very clean and perfect for the 5 of us. It was nice to be able to jump in the pool in the evenings after a day of fun activities. Hearing the Reveille and the National Anthem in the morning was an added bonus and a reminder of how great this country is. We would definitely stay here again.

Cindy O. - Posted: 9/24/2020

This place has all the amenities and is so conveniently located.

Jim O. - Posted: 8/9/2020

Everyone was so nice and helpful!! I would recommend this place to anyone.

Tracey P. - Posted: 2/10/2020

Walking distance to everything Quite neighborhood

Brian S. - Posted: 12/18/2019

We had a enjoyable stay in a comfortable house! Shel was right on top of everything, Made our experience Wonderful!!

Michael D. - Posted: 12/13/2019

We are a family of 5 adults; it was very comfortable, clean, very organized and walking distance from all restaurants and stores.. We would definitely start again.

KATHY c., BROOMALL, PA - Posted: 12/4/2019

We had a wonderful stay! The property is very clean and well maintained. Our four year old son loved the pool! We highly recommend this property!

Very nice home.

Jason - Posted: 6/20/2018

Thanks Jason! Come back and stay with us again.

Last Key Realty staff

You can't beat the location! Shel, our guest services coordinator, was great and quick to respond to any questions.

Joe B. - Posted: 4/10/2018

Shel and the Last Key Team excelled yet again on every detail and help beyond the norm is why we will continue to Enjoy Our Stays In Key West. This was our second stay at this house it is located close to everything we need but still in a quite location with above par amenities.

John W. - Posted: 11/26/2017

This home was a true Floridian beauty. Bright happy decor, with the utmost convenient location. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. Shel from Last Key rental provided us with all the information we needed, including a fantastic restaurant list and he responded to us immediately when we had questions. We loved Blue Heaven, for breakfast, and Eaton Fish had a great lobster roll and other fresh fish. We were there for the World Championship Offshore race and we could walk to the race from the house. We could also walk to Duval St We would highly recommend this house to anyone planning a trip to Key West !!!! I can't wait to return !!

kathleen r. - Posted: 11/15/2017

The house was clean and spacious. The backyard and pool area was bright and lovely. The location could not have been better! We would stay here every time! And management was helpful and kind. Always a delight.

Catherine B. - Posted: 8/30/2017

We had a great time at this property! We comfortably slept 6 people (3 bedrooms and a pull out couch). Primary purpose of our trip was to go fishing for an entire week in Key West, FL. Coming back to this house from long days on the water was awesome. Great open kitchen, grill, and pool setup. We were easily able to cook our catch each day. Washer and Dryer also enabled us to pack lighter and wash our clothes through out the trip. Quiet and nice neighborhood. 3 bathrooms with great water pressure.

Matthew E. - Posted: 8/17/2017

Great property in the middle of it all! Added bonus was our greater and host, Shel with Last Key Realty... simply the best!

Kristy H. - Posted: 8/14/2017

This house met & exceeded all of our expectations! Everything from the furniture to the kitchen to the pool was just wonderful! And it was all very easy to use & find. For the few food items we needed, the local market was a short walk, or even better, bike ride away. And Duval Street & the Ft. Zachary Taylor Park/Beach were just a few blocks away. Also, our liason with the rental agency, Shel, was Fantastic! He met us at the house, even though we were 2 hours late do due crazy traffic on Key Largo, interupting his dinner plans to show us the house! You can be sure I will return to Key West and this house, in the near future!!!

George B. - Posted: 7/16/2017

This is a great house with a beautiful private pool surrounded by lush foliage. We never had to use a car. We rented bikes and could access the entire island from this perfectly central location. We could be at restaurants and attractions in minutes and then relax in peace and quiet in our own tranquil haven.

Vanessa B. - Posted: 6/29/2017

We had a wonderful time swimming in the pool and riding our bikes to nearby restaurants and attractions. It was wonderful to have a parking place and the staff from Last Key Resorts gave us great information for everything Key West. We definitely hope to return.

Vanessa B. - Posted: 6/28/2017

This is the fourth year we have stayed in this property. It is a wonderfully comfortable house in a perfect location for walking to the beach, the waterfront, restaurants, the cinema, plays and the sunset celebration. Shel, the manager, receives 5 stars as well as he cheerfully and competently sees to everything. This is a perfect "home away from home"!

Harriet D. - Posted: 4/27/2017

Once again the team at Last Key hit a home run. Shel had discussed this property with us on one of our earlier stays he could not have been more correct. My wife and I enjoy the Annex area and the home was in great shape and our needs were carefully taken care of by Shel. Thank you, we will be back.

John W. - Posted: 4/16/2017

Brisa Fresca is the perfect spot to get away from the hustle and bustle of Key West but have it all there close by! The house is well maintained and very clean. The kitchen is large, well appointed and has a great flow which made it easy to cook for a crowd! The private pool is right off the house making it very easy to go for a dip whenever the mood struck! I would highly recommend this house! It's by far my favorite place in all my visits to Key West! Shel was a joy to work with and always there to answer any question or attend to any need!

Kelly M. - Posted: 3/14/2017

This was our third year staying at Brisa Fresca for the holidays and it was amazing as always. The house is in an amazing location walking distance to everything in Key West, and the layout of the home is great. We are a group of 7 ranging in ages form 5-70 and the house is a perfect fit. The living area opens directly to the pool, its a nice quiet little oasis in the heart of crazy Key West. As always Shel was very helpful and accommodating. He received packages for us and delivered them to the home before we arrived and was away just a phone call away for anything we needed or any questins we had. We have already booked the property again for the holidays next year. Brisa Fresca, Shel and everyone at Last Key Realty are amazing and when we are there we feel like we are at our home away from home!

Amanda F. - Posted: 2/21/2017

The house was perfect. It had a very well equipped kitchen (we prepared a full Thanksgiving dinner for 5) . It was beautifully decorated and had very comfortable beds. We absolutely loved the balcony off of the upstairs bedroom. The manager provided excellent materials and recommendations for meals and shopping. Shel was extremely helpful in all ways. He went out of his way to be sure everything about our vacation was perfect. The pool was stunning too. Very private and quiet. Easy walking distance to everything. We will be renting this property again in the future for sure.

sandy b. - Posted: 2/15/2017

You can't go wrong with this property. The location, the house and outdoor area beautiful, clean, and so comfortable. Shel with Last Key Realty made it even better. Goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with everything and if you need anything while you are there he's just a phone call away. Thank you Shel! Definitely would recommend this property and when we return to Key West we will be renting this house again.

Lisa S. - Posted: 12/16/2016

This home took our breath away. It was perfect for our family which included my wife and I; my 2 grown children and spouses. Everything about the home and pool and grill and furniture was outstanding and we will come back! Our only problem was the TV's and remotes were so complicate we had some difficulty. More directions needed. Key West was a fantastic place to vacation and the Home Away Home in the Truman Annex was the perfect location and perfect home!!

Jerry K. - Posted: 12/14/2016

Brisa Fresca IS truly breathtaking!! What a great way to describe this gorgeous vacation home. We do share your woes of complicated technology. We do everything we can to teach our incoming guests how to use the technology of the house - for this home it is a Universal Logitech Remote - and we actually do provide directions as well. If at any time a guest has trouble with the TV, internet, etc your Guest Services Coordinator is just a phone call or text away to come and resolve the issue for you while you are in residence.

Last Key Realty staff

I was down in the Keys for 10 days with my boss and his team, I have to say we all enjoyed our stay, the house was impeccable, all the appliance in working condition, and a back up propane to boot, Shel the guest coordinator, and broker was the best available at all times to answer any questions regarding the propoerty, gave suggestions for places to shop and if there was a problem with something within minutes he was offering a solution Truly a great time we'll be back..

Traci M. - Posted: 12/6/2016

We absolutely loved the property. Shel was very helpful. The property was clean and very comfortable. The property was very centrally located to lots of fun spots. I would recommend this property to anyone. We went to Salute, The Blue Macaw, and Latitudes. They all had great food!!! We have stayed at 3 properties in Key West and this is our favorite. We can't wait to go back next year.

Tracy R. - Posted: 9/27/2016

We spent a wonderful week in Key West at the Brisa Fresca property in the Truman Annex! Shel was our guest relations manager and Took extra good care of us. The house was beautiful and fully appointed to suit all of our needs. The pool area was a much needed hang out space during a very hot week in Key West. The location of the house was in walking distance of everything we needed to see on the island. Thank you Shel for a wonderful week! We were three couples traveling together and would definitely recommend this property as well as last key realty when planning a vacation to Key West.

Jan H. - Posted: 9/19/2016

We loved the Brisa Fresca house! It is gorgeous and the Truman Annex is a great location. It was very spacious and the rooms are nicely decorated and very clean. The house was well equipped with everything we needed in all rooms, especially the kitchen! The pool, patio and grill area is also great! We really enjoyed our stay. We'll definitely be back!

Shannon O. - Posted: 9/8/2016

Beautiful historic house and neighborhood in Key West. The location is perfect, close to the beach, Duval street, historical sites, Mallory Square and many great restaurants. Our family felt right at home in this comfortable spacious house. The kitchen had everything we needed. The pool area was fabulous, with lush vegetation, covered sitting areas, large gas grill. Even though houses are close together we had complete privacy and tranquility. It was wonderful to be able to relax and enjoy some family time without worrying about other people like we would in a condo with shared pool and outdoor space. The master bedroom was large, had a great on suite bathroom and a balcony overlooking the pool area. The 2nd bedroom upstairs had 2 twin beds and its own bath. We had 2 teens sharing it and they had plenty of space and loved having their own TV. The 3rd bedroom was downstairs and pretty small but still large enough for a queen sized Murphy bed. The mattress was very comfortable and my husband and I appreciated not having to climb stairs. If you don't need the 3rd bedroom the bed can be put up and the room used as an office which gives it a lot of flexibility. We would all love to stay here again. The guest services director, Shel made sure that everything went smoothly on check in, was available in case of problems (but we didn't have any) and check out was a breeze. They also have concierge service that was very helpful booking tours and stocking groceries ahead of our visit. Loved it!!!

Deborah E. - Posted: 8/10/2016

The house is in a great location. Close to the beach, Duval street, Mallory Square, shopping and wonderful restaurants. The house itself was spacious and comfortable. The pool area is secluded and very nice with plenty of places to lounge, a wonderful grill and the pool is fabulous. The master bedroom is large with an on suite bath and balcony facing the backyard. The 2nd bedroom is large also with 2 twin beds and its own bath. We had 2 teens in it and they loved it. The 3rd bedroom is downstairs. It was much smaller with a queen size Murphy bed but the mattress was very comfortable so it worked for us. There is a full size bath downstairs also so it was very convenient for the 6 of us. I would love to stay there again.

Deborah E. - Posted: 8/9/2016

I brought my family of 6 to Key West for a family vacation and stayed at the Brisa Fresca. The home was fully equipped and in very good condition. The pool in the backyard was a big hit with my daughter and the location could not be better. Close to Duvall and the beach, yet in a private and quiet area. Shel greeted us upon arrival and provided recommendations for dining in Key West. We also had Shel stock the home with groceries ahead of our arrival which was exactly as requested. Great home and outstanding service from Shel. I would highly recommend this home.

tim s. - Posted: 6/21/2016

Would gladly stay there again.

Melanie G., Oswego - Posted: 4/27/2016

Subject property is clean, well-maintained and appointed, with every amenity needed for a relaxing vacation. It is also located close to "the action" on Duval Street, but maintains an aura of privacy and seclusion. The property manager was very helpful and always available, but was never intrusive during our stay.

David W. - Posted: 3/23/2016

Our stay at Brisa Fresca was perfect. Shel was so accommodating and the house was exactly as expected and big enough for a family of 7. The pool was warm and inviting....even in the rain! Any questions or concerns were quickly addressed by Shel. He couldn't have been more helpful. The location is within walking distance to all the action. What a great place. We will be back!!

joan r. - Posted: 1/20/2016

This was our second year renting this home and it was amazing as usual. The home itself is beautiful with a comfortable layout, and amazing pool and outdor area. Shel, from Last Key Realty, was there to meet us, and accomidate anything we needed during our 10 day stay. The location of this property can not be beat... we will definitly be back

Amanda F. - Posted: 1/6/2016

We have stayed a this property for the last 7 years and are never disappointed. The management company was a pleasure to deal with. As soon as we arrived, Shel Segel from Last Key Realty, Inc. met us at the property to make sure everything was to our liking. He could not do enough to make sure our stay was perfect. And it was. We would HIGHLY recommend this property and Last Key Realty

Bob V. - Posted: 12/14/2015

The property and experience was amazing! Our contact Shel was very accomodating and made sure we had everything we needed. We go to Key West once or twice a year but this was our best trip yet. Anything and everything was within a couple minutes walk or scooter ride. I would highly recommend Shel and Last key Realty for your next stay in Key West!!

Ryan G. - Posted: 12/1/2015

Very clean, well kept up house with all the amenities. Rental service company attended to all needs and was very helpful. We plan to rent again.

Dan M. - Posted: 11/23/2015

Brisa Fresca was the perfect house for our week vacation in Old Town. My wife and I traveled with a 7, 9 and 14 year old. The highlights of this property are the location, cleanliness and amenities, the large heated pool and renting with Last Key Realty (and Shel in particular). The house has a great layout with open kitchen and living area, one bedroom downstairs and the master and third bedroom upstairs (with twin beds - perfect for the smaller children). The house is in immaculate condition and the listing description and pictures are absolutely accurate. There kitchen is fully stocked to meet all your cooking needs and there are plenty of towels and bed linens. If you plan to spend much of your time at the property outside, this home is a great choice. The heated pool, by Key West standards, is very large (we looked at three other homes within the Truman Annex and this home had the largest pool by far.) The outdoor living space is well appointed, nicely landscaped and serene. I can't think of a better location if you are looking to explore all that Old Town has to offer (restaurants, shopping, nightlife). The heart of Duval street is a few short blocks away and Mallory Square is a 5 to 10 minute walk. The beach at Fort Zachary, a coral beach that our family felt was the prettiest of the Key West beaches with the clearest water, is very close as well. Finally, our experience would not have been complete without the stellar customer service of Last Key Realty and Shel in particular. Shel spent a lot of time with our family sharing a dozen or two great restaurant and nightlife recommendations. His suggestions were accurate and the food was exceptional (We found the dining scene in Key West to be creative, high quality and lacking pretension.) We would highly recommend this property, Shel and renting with Last Key. We will be returning soon!

Jeff A. - Posted: 9/2/2015

Brisa Fresca was an awesome property. The location was perfect and the accommodations far exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend this property.

hank w. - Posted: 8/29/2015

better than the pictures awesome place! Shel met us there when we arrived ,he couldn't have been more helpful, from recommendations of restaurants to exploring Key West.

Jim B. - Posted: 8/14/2015

We stayed at the property for two weeks. It was our first vacation to Key West, having stayed previously in Sanibel and Captiva for our vacations in Florida in the past. The house location is perfect. Walking distance to all the attractions, restaurants and bars in Old Town Key West. We received a great orientation on arrival which really helped find good locations to eat and drink. The property is immaculate and has all you need to just relax. We would recommend this property to anyone who just wants a vacation to relax and enjoy. We certainly did

Iain M. - Posted: 8/5/2015

First we need to note Shel, the property manager, who went well above and beyond ensuring we had his latest intel on where to eat..where to entertain..where to shop for food..how to navigate the Annex, etc. Our vacation was extra special due to his study. So Brisa Fresca is an ultra clean home with fantastic finishes and decor. We loved the well designed and functional kitchen whose open layout not only allows "the cook" to keep in touch with family in the living room, but also the adjacent dining room and den are within view and an easy conversation. Having the pool in view from the kitchen was also a real bonus, especially with kids. The family room has ample seating, all very comfortable, with an impressive entertainment system that is wired throughout the home. Just can't say enough about how the lower level is designed. It looks great, fully functional, and just feels good. The upstairs bedrooms and bathrooms won't disappoint. They are very clean, quiet, and spacious. There is a deck from which you can look over the pool or just star gaze in the evening from. A washer and drying are located in the hallway and they work great. The ensuite bedrooms are the way to go. The backyard pool was plenty big to enjoy a few games of marco polo and refresh from the heat. The grill and outside dining tables along with sitting area on the deck make it easy for everyone to grab some space and enjoy the warm breeze. This was our 3rd year renting in Key West, 5 years renting in the Keys. Can't wait to get back to Brisa Fresca.

Peter H. - Posted: 7/31/2015

This Home is conveniently located 3 blocks away from Duval St. Has a perfect size pool and comfortably hosts a party of 6. The property manager (Shel) was very friendly and willing to accommodate arrival time. Please note this is a very residential area if you have a noisy group might not be the best bet. We loved the house and we had an amazing time. Recommend and would return as well.

Claribel I. - Posted: 7/30/2015

We absolutely loved staying here. The house is gorgeous, spotless, and had everything we needed for the week. The beds were comfortable, the air conditioning was great, the pool was amazing. The neighborhood was so quiet (and safe), which was a nice shift from the typical Key West. The host, Shel, stopped by to make sure everything was perfect--he was a delight. We definitely want to stay here again next year!

Blakely M. - Posted: 5/18/2015

Shel met us at the property upon our arrival and showed us the entire home. He gave us great recommendations for restaurants which we used the entire week with 100% satisfaction at each location. The home was extremely clean, beautifully decorated, and very well stocked with kitchen essentials. We had asked for the pool to be heated and it was so comfortable. The location of this home in Key West was perfect for us. It was quiet and peaceful and yet close to everything in Key West. We also rented bikes through the concierge and they were delivered on time, in great condition, and picked up at the exact time we arranged for as well. We had a fabulous time and will definitely put this on our list of return destinations. The only one thing I would point out for future renters. The two upstairs rooms were very large and very comfortable as were the attached bathrooms. The downstairs bedroom is actually a study area with a murphy bed. It has built in cabinets that allow for storing your things and was very comfortable for the other couple that joined us on the trip. It was not an issue for us at all but if you are splitting the cost among 3 couples, you may want to make sure the others know that one bedroom is considerably smaller than the other two and shares the full downstairs bath with 1st floor people. We were 3 couples and just each tried to use our own bathrooms to allow privacy for the first floor couple. Again, it had a very comfortable murphy bed and was not an issue for our group at all but I could see it being an issue for some -- especially if it were a 3 way split for costs. Thank you, Shel. I loved meeting you and appreciate the time you took to help us with local information and familiarity with the home as well.

Theresa S H. - Posted: 4/9/2015

This was our second year spending six weeks at Brisa Fresca and are already looking forward to next year. The house is wonderful, the pool terrific and location perfect for walking to restaurants, movies and theatres in Old Town. Shel Segel, who is the Guest Service Coordinator, graciously sees to all of our needs! We strongly recommend this property.

Harriet D. - Posted: 4/6/2015

We could not have had a better experience on our first visit to Key West. Brisa Fresca is a beautiful and comfortable house, in a quiet neighborhood, close to everything. It was impeccably maintained, perfectly clean, and well-supplied. The kitchen is sufficiently outfitted for even the most expert cook (although we couldn't resist the restaurants and ate out every night.) The pool and deck area are so spectacular that you could easily spend all your time there. Our house manager, Shel, met us at the house and not only showed us around the house, but also gave us a detailed introduction to Key West, its restaurants, and many activities. Thanks to him, we didn't need to waste any time of our short visit just getting our bearings. It was also reassuring as first timers in Key West to know that if anything had gone wrong with the house or us, Shel was only a phone call away 24/7. We also made use of the concierge service to book restaurant reservations and a awaking/snorkeling tour and to rent bicycles, which was a wonderful timesaver.

Blair F. - Posted: 3/31/2015

When our group of six arrived at this beautiful home we were very pleased. The spacious house, landscape and pool were beautifully maintained, up to date and very clean! The location was ideal for walking or biking to everything Key West had to offer. Shel was there to greet us and show us around, he had even delivered our grocery requests and put them away. All of the equipment necessary for a gourmet to cook, serve and cleanup from a meal was present. We enjoyed the location very much. We rented bikes for our two week stay and rode all over Key West daily. We fished on charters recommended by the concierge in the daytime, swam and lounged by the heated pool in the afternoons. Shel's detailed recommendations for restaurants and live music venues were excellent and most evenings we stayed out late listening to music and enjoying the tropical weather. An all around perfect vacation in a perfect property!

Just perfect! I really can't say much more to sum it up. House and location - perfect! Pool - absolutely amazing! Comfortably slept 4 adults and 2 kids. So much to see and do in Key West but the house just made you want to stay by the pool and relax. Everything in the house was in great shape. Last Key Realty and Shel were great as well and made the whole process very easy. Would rent again in a heartbeat and recommend it to anyone who is interested.

This house was perfect for us, we were a group of 6 and this house was the perfect size. The home is even better than in the photos, clean, perfectly decorated for Key West and the kitchen is stocked with anything you would need to cook. The heated pool was amazing and we spent most of our time outside. Shel was great helping us arrange shipping items down before our arrival, and checking in on us throughout the stay to make sure everything was going well. We go down every year for Christmas and this was our favorite home of all, and Shel and everyone at Last Key Realty are just great.

The Brisa Fresca house was beautiful and the pool was great. This house did not disappoint in fact it is even better than the pictures on the site. Booking through Last Key Realty was so easy and they offer concierge services for your bicycle rentals, etc. Shel was so awesome to work with and made our stay very worry free. Shel took our grocery list and when we arrived everything we needed was waiting for us and that was one of the best parts of our trip - no grocery store trips. On arrival Shel met us at the house and gave us a list of the best places to eat in Key West. The only down side would be the noise restrictions in this neighborhood in the evenings. Overall this was a great place to stay and we thoroughly enjoyed our week of relaxtion. Thank you Shel !!!!!

Coming to Key West was a real treat. We were amazed by the location of this home. It was so close to downtown and the beach, yet still quiet and relaxing for us to enjoy. Our family had a wonderful time exploring the island and waters of Key West. We were provided with excellent service by the property manager. I would most definitely say this is a home we would choose again. 5+ stars for the lovely decor and cleanliness of this home and grounds.

The house was amazing. It was a short drive to the beach and 2 blocks from duval. The pool was clean, the house was decorated to a tee and everything was just what we expected and more. The manager Shel was extremely helpful, getting a body pillow for me (pregnant) and buying our groceries for a small surcharge before we got there. We relied heavily on the food recommendations given by Shel and we were extremely pleased. I recently told my husband that every time we go back I would like to stay there again. The upstairs balcony was a warm, dry and beautiful place to watch a passing storm, and the beach was a short ride on the electric car. There is parking close if you have a rental car as well and want to plug in your electric car under the carport. The blankets and bedding were better than any hotel, soft and comforting and there is also the convenience of using the washer and dryer. Extra keys and the layout of the town was easily accessible in a binder for us to look at. The concierge service was extremely helpful as well setting up a Haunted Tour as well as our electric car rental. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better experience in Key West. Just flat out paradise in a house in an awesome eclectic little island town. LOVED IT.

This house was perfect for our family of four in a very quiet, residential location but close to everything. It has every possible amenity you could think of and many many more. The pool and garden areas are beautiful and the house is well maintained and very clean. The agency is really helpful and nothing was too much trouble

The home in the Truman Annex "Brisa Fresca" provided a truly exceptional getaway. It was a beautiful property in tip-top condition - luxury accommodations for an extended family (3 generations with small children). The rental was made through Last Key Realty and met (quite often exceeded) our highest expectations. No hidden costs, no fine print or any sort of unpleasant surprise that can turn a fun vacation into something far less. The rental reservation, deposit and confirmation process was very straightforward and simple. Reservation personnel at Last Key were courteous and responsive. Prior to our arrival, Shel (the property concierge) took on our lengthy shopping list, requiring numerous stops at miscellaneous shops, grocery stores and pharmacies. All our provisions were neatly put away in pantries, drawers, cabinets and refrigerator on the day we arrived. Upon our arrival, Shel met us curbside and provided a comprehensive orientation to the property. This, in itself, is quite a service given the many high tech and convenience devices and appliances (read the property description carefully - it's ALL there and it works!). Check-out was a similarly easy and pain-free experience. Once home, NO surprises on our credit card statement (not always the case with other rentals). All in all, we LOVE the people at Last Key and, most of all - SHEL !

1Absolutely wonderful property! Centrally located, but private and quiet. We had bikes delivered to us and used them to go everywhere. Come home, and dive into your own private swimming pool! We had six guests and all slept comfortably with their own bathrooms. Shel was a great concierge giving us all sorts of dining tips. The concierge service was great in getting us reservations to attractions and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again! Don't think twice and make a reservation today!

Vincent W. - Posted: 7/23/2014

What an amazing holiday! We had a friendly welcome to the property from Shel who also gave us many good hints on where to eat and what to see while we were in Key West. The house itself is beautiful with a perfect sized pool for kids to play in, the finish inside is top notch with all the mod cons, everything has been thought of for a comfortable stay. The property is in the perfect location, minutes from the sea and a short walk into the centre of town and Malory Square. There is not one thing we could fault with our stay in Key West.

I cannot say enough good things about our stay at Brisa Fresca. The name says it all. The property was beautiful, clean, well stocked, and situated in the perfect location - close to the beach and Duval, but very private and quiet. You can walk or bike to everything. We enjoyed cooling off in the pool and dining on the patio. In addition, the property manager Shel took great care of us and made us feel very welcome. He pre-stocked the kitchen with items we requested, took time to introduce us to the property and all of its features, and even recommended some fabulous restaurants and activities. He is a wealth of information and his service and genial demeanor certainly set this property apart. Even the booking experience was a piece of cake. Last Key Realty was a pleasure to do business with. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Perfectly lovely house. Clean and well maintained. Great attention to detail, even the smallest. Location is one of the best in Key West. Would recommend this property without reservation.

Beautiful property, well located and looked as described. Well kept, clean and wonderful kitchen for cooking. Pool is beautiful. Our extended family of small children, parents and grandparents all loved it. Thanks for all your help Shel.

Susan S. - Posted: 4/26/2014

Perfect location, two blocks from Duval, and about half way between everything we wanted to see. Shel did an excellent job acclimating us to the property and making sure we knew everything we needed to know for an awesome first trip to Key West. Can't wait to head back!

Mikel W. - Posted: 4/25/2014

One could not ask for more. The house is immaculate. The amentities were well thought of. The pool is heavenly. The location is ideal....and the manager is there for you. Book with confidence, and enjoy your stay as much as we did!

Can't say enough wonderful things about this house, our concierge Shel, and the great time we had in Key West. House was in perfect condition when we arrived. Shel had arranged for all of our groceries and other "necessities" to be at the house so we were able to start our vacation right away. We vacationed with two other couples and the house was the perfect size for the six of us. We all commented that this was the best stocked vacation rental we had ever seen. We spent hours by the pool, taking advantage of the gas grill for lunches and cooking up all the fresh fish we caught on our fishing trips. (On the Premium Time out of A&B Marina!). The house is within walking distance to just about everywhere, but far enough off the beaten path to be quiet and peaceful. Recommend eating breakfast at Blue Heaven, which is only a few blocks away. We ate in most nights but enjoyed a fabulous meal at La Te Da on Duval. Only Wood has great pizza and they deliver! The Boathouse at A&B Marina has a great happy hour with delicious appetizers - make sure you try the Boathouse Bread! We truly did not want to leave once our week was up. We highly recommend this wonderful house for your Key West vacation. In fact, we've already begun to plan a two week rental for next year! Thank you, Shel and Last Key Realty!

The house is nicely furnished with every amenity and perfectly located. The house is on a pretty, quiet street but within walking distance to the beach, Mallory Square, Duval Street and all the activities and restaurants. The pool is great and outdoor living very nice. Our concierges, both for the house and for activities, were always available to answer questions and provide any service. Their recommendations for everything from fishing to a spa were spot on. I would enthusiastically recommend this house The house is a ten minute walk to Yoga on the Beach and just minutes from restaurants and music. The Truman Little WHite House is just down the Street and Audubon and Hemingway Houses close by. The Butterfly Conservatory is another favorite attraction.

We had a fabulous stay at Brisa Fresca. We consistently rent homes when we travel and rate this one of our favorites. The house itself was spotlessly clean, well laid out with plenty of different places to gather or get away from it all. It was located within walkable distance to Duval Street and far enough away to be a little oasis of calm when you needed it. What impressed us the most was how well prepared the property was...the agency thought of absolutely everything, from dish detergent to extra rolls of paper towels. It sounds minor, but it's really frustrating to check into a "villa" and scramble around for the basics. The binders of information and restaurant recommendations were really helpful (especially the restaurant recs....Key West can be hit or miss for meals). We had bikes delivered to the house so we could ride and watch the sunset every night at the State Park around the corner and ride to the grocery store. Shel, the agency rep contacted us the moment we booked, emailed back and forth before we arrived and made our settling in process at the house a dream. His personal introduction to the house, neighborhood and Key West relieved so much of the stress of having a holiday in an unknown place. He is a great ambassador for the house, the agency and Key West. We're looking for an excuse to come back and stay longer.

Sheree and I really enjoyed our stay! Our family had a great time for our inaugral trip to Key West Florida! What a wonderful place to visit and share these rare opportunities with such a large family and our friends from Birmingham Alabama... Weather was suspect at times but much better than we had back home @ 15degrees! Shel did a wonderful job making sure we were in and satisfied with our rentals and made sure all things were taken care of and working properly! Thanks Shel! Great job! Hopefully we will return next as an annual event!

My wife and I, along with my wife's brother and one of her sisters, spent two wonderful weeks this January at a 3 BR home in the Truman Annex. This was the third winter in a row that we've rented a home in the Truman Annex, and the guest services manager was warm, personable and on top of all the details at all times. The property was perfect and we had absolutely no problems whatsoever. We love the Annex and it proximity to Old Town. We'll be going back for many years to come.

My wife and I loved this house!!! We spoke with Shel the property manager and he walked us through the process, as this was our first time renting a vacation house.It couldn't of been easier. We met Shel at the property and he gave us complete walk through and then spent another 15 minuets going over the best places to eat, sites to see... he even called during our stay to be sure all was well, he was great!The location is prime , the Truman Annex is close to all the action Key West has to offer but far enough away for VERY quiet relaxing by the private pool.The house is well equipped, only thing we needed was food for the grill & drinks to relax. The only knock I have on the place is, the mattress in the master was a bit hard for our taste, but that would not deter us from renting the house again.The neighborhood is beautiful, the home is perfectly landscaped to give you nice tropical seclusion, the beach at Zachery Taylor is a short bike ride away and Duval is a couple blocks. Cant wait to go back!

Vacationing in Key West is special in its self, but to do so in a historical setting in this masterful home is icing on the cake. Entering the front door of the house is like entering a tropical paradise; gardens to the left and right of the porch with brilliant colors and sweet smells of the Keys. Rockers line the porch, welcoming you to relax, sit back, and enjoy letting time go by. As you enter the newly renovated house, to your left is a sitting room with tall windows that bring the outside garden to the inside. Just outside of this room is a breakfast nook, which invites you for morning coffee or tea, breakfast, lunch and dinner. As you walk through, the kitchen flows to the right with elegant granite counter tops, beautiful cabinets, and appliances with enough space for entertaining with family or friends. For the chef, the new layout offers a secluded area for cooking, as well as allows guest to enjoy hors d'oeuvres and access to the refrigerator without disturbance. The kitchen exhibits the owner’s great attention to detail. Strolling to the back of the house, the family area invites you to large sofas and chairs, and then opens up to French doors that take you out to a beautiful porch and gorgeous pool. The heated pool is privately secluded and tranquil, especially at night as it lights up, allowing you to enjoy the sky above you with stars shining bright. While you would think that the first floor was breath taking enough, the second floor holds two lovely bedrooms colorfully decorated with on suites, large closets, and hard wood floors. The second floor balcony is a great place to retire after a full day of activities. Our morning and evening walks on the street the home is located on allows you to enjoy beautiful homes with each yard landscaped and beautifully manicured. Even though staying at this home is quite exciting and relaxing, it has an extra bonus of close proximity to some of our favorite activities, all within biking or walking distance: Famous Duval Street, right in the mix of our favorite restaurant, Grand Vin. Visiting the Mel Fisher Museum to explore the 1622 Atocha ship wreck was another favorite of ours. We invite you to take the challenge, calling to book your next vacation at this splendid Key West home, you won’t regret it! We have vacationed in this very special home several times over the years and plan to come back as often as we can. What a wonderful place. Enjoy!

What a wonderfully appointed home we found here. Brisa Fresca is truly a tropical paradise found without leaving the country. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. The beds are the most comfortable I have ever slept in in a rental property. They are lush and the sheets were so crisp and clean. The kitchen has everything you could need for an elegant meal at home or just the basics. The pool area is as nice as any spa wishes it could be and with the lush trees and flowers, it is completely private. The swing on the back patio was my favorite spot to relax with a good book. The location is perfect for an adventure to the beach at Fort Zachary Taylor or a pleasant stroll down Duval Street for all of the shopping and scenery for which Key West is famous. You can watch the most beautiful sunsets from Mallory Square and then take a leisurely walk back to the house amid beautiful tree lined streets. It was a joy to be close enough to walk anywhere we wanted. I hope I have the opportunity to visit Brisa Fresca soon!

We visited for a girl’s getaway and had a wonderful, fun and relaxing time. The house is just beautiful, perfectly decorated with tropical hues and lovely artwork. We each had our own room and bathroom, a real treat when traveling with women! The pool area is gorgeous, surrounded by lush palms and delicate orchids making it totally private. There are plenty of shady and sunny areas so everyone was happy. The back lanai with its comfy furniture and ceiling fans is the perfect place to spend the afternoon with a good book and a cool crisp glass of wine. The beach at Fort Zachary Taylor is just around the corner if you can drag yourself away from the perfection of the pool. It’s a short delightful walk to Mallory Square for the famous Sunset Celebration or just a few blocks to Duval for all the Key West delights. We really loved being able to walk everywhere and staying in the Annex neighborhood we felt completely safe even late at night. The boring but important basics, everything is just done right here. It is immaculate; the beds are super comfortable the bathrooms are well laid out with plenty of room for your toiletries. The kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook in or just have a quick cup of coffee before heading out to one of the many nearby restaurants - Blue Heaven is a must do for breakfast. We loved this place and can’t wait to go back soon.
