The Mellow Macaw

Stayed at the Mellow Macaw in Key West. Great experience, everything as advertised. Clean. Good location, very close to Duval Street. Proactive host.

Last Key Realty they are really five star top notch! Excellent communication and very friendly. As an Airbnb Super Host myself I can be more particular. I could not find even one suggestion for amazing unit and the incredible service. the property was close to everything in one minute walk to Duval Street while at the same time feeling like we were in our own little Oasis away from everything when it was time to relax. our group had four total and there was plenty of room for everyone to relax and be together and also have private spaces.

Awesome location close to Duval but far enough away to be quiet. Place had everything needed, well stocked

Jeff - Posted: 10/21/2024

10/10. Brian our representative was amazing & so helpful. We loved the location. We could walk anywhere with ease. We were close enough to all of the shops/restaurants/bars/beaches but located in a peaceful setting for privacy. The back patio was an absolute amazing & a plus. We loved it. Had 5 guest with no issues on space. It is one bathroom, but everyone made it work with no issue. We have been to Key West 5 times. Stayed in 4 hotels. This has been our favorite place to stay in Key West.

Brian - Posted: 7/5/2024

Nice place, user friendly experience, great support. Thanks!

Ken - Posted: 6/8/2024

Good value and comfortable enough for a group of 4. The outside space was a bonus as it is well-fenced and provides good privacy. The Mellow Macaw was spotless upon entry and had everything we needed for the week.
My only complaint has to do with the AA Club directly across the street. Coming in from the West Coast, their 6:30am meetings can provide an early wake up if you're a light sleeper.
Aside from that, you're a block off of Duval and within walking distance of great restaurants and shopping. Would definitely book here again.

Really cute place with a fantastic private patio. Great location close to everything but not on the main drag. Last Key Realty host was terrific.

Carrie - Posted: 2/16/2024

Great stay at the Mellow Macaw. Location is perfect. Positioned between Duval and Whitehead, but still quiet. Walkable to everything. Reserved parking spot is a bonus. Very clean, free of clutter and well maintained. Was also very nice to be able to store our luggage at the rental office after check-out. Highly recommend!

Carma - Posted: 1/24/2024

The Mellow Macaw unit was located just 1 blk off Duval with easy walking to many restaurants and attractions. The unit was very clean, but one br door needed oil for squeak. Brian with Last Key was available and friendly for any needs. The concierge service was friendly and can provide guidance to attractions, but KW attractions many times have discounts online that the concierge did not offer. Over all a great place to stay with attentive service.

Robert - Posted: 11/5/2023

We couldn’t have asked for more from
Brian and the team at Last Key Realty on our Key West trip. From the accommodation itself being top notch, to customer service . The place was accurately described, good location and clear instructions for check in and check out

William - Posted: 8/13/2023

We had the pleasure of staying at Mellow Macaw for four nights and had a wonderful experience. Brian from Last Key Realty kept in constant communication with us throughout the stay to make sure we were happy. We were welcomed with a Kermit's Key Lime Pie on arrival, and he was kind enough to ship back an iPad that we had forgotten.
Parking was a must--a nearby spot would have been sufficient but having one on-site was an absolute bonus. The premium location is in walking distance to The Hemingway Home, Key West Lighthouse, Southernmost Point and Duval Street.
The house is very well maintained and spotless on arrival. Amenities include washer/dryer, dishwasher, coffee makers (both drip and pod), microwave, oven and outdoor grill. They even provided us with other unexpected items such as plentiful beach towels, chairs, and umbrellas.
We look forward to booking with Last Key Realty once again on our next visit to Key West!

Great location. The pullout couch is very comfortable.

Christopher - Posted: 7/1/2023

Breanna - Posted: 8/15/2022

Catherine - Posted: 5/26/2022

Nice patio, comfy bed, excellent location. Very handy to have a kitchen, washer/dryer and parking space. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Samantha was super helpful.

Tom - Posted: 3/2/2022

Could not have been any better! Easy check in, extremely helpful, held out bags until our flight, excellent recommendations. Amenities were as described and the location could not have been any better. Quiet at night and so close to everything. 10/10

Mike - Posted: 2/15/2022

Can't beat the location and all the amenities made available (abundance of towels, including beach towels, noise machines in the bedrooms, and everything you would need in the kitchen). The conscierge service was fantastic and elevated the entire experience. Loved hanging out on the patio!

Samantha - Posted: 1/23/2022

Hands down the best place to stay in key west. Management was awesome. Location is perfect. The apartment was amazing. I would not and do not plan on staying anywhere else when I visit key west.

Ken - Posted: 9/27/2021

What a great place to stay!! One block away from Duvall St. and within comfortable walking distance to anything you want to see. We used the Last Key’s concierge services to stock the fridge before our arrival and to book our daily adventures. They made our stay hassle free. We did rent a golf cart for getting around and doing some sightseeing. The home is beautifully decorated and a lot more spacious then what we were thinking from the pictures. 4 people in the house and we were comfortable! Nice amenities to use for beach visits. We fixed several meals at the house and the BBQ grill was a nice feature to have. Beds were comfortable and having a washer and dryer was a huge plus! The neighborhood was mostly quiet and very safe. Would definitely book this place again!

Michael - Posted: 9/23/2021

Absolutely perfect! Highly recommend this place. Location was perfect. Private outdoor space was great! Place was very clean and inviting!

Sarah - Posted: 9/16/2021

Great location and great value. So close to everything Key West has to offer. Fort Zach park is walking distance because we enjoy walking and has great snorkeling off the beach. Loved our stay at the Mellow Macaw. Highly recommend.

Appu - Posted: 9/8/2021

We would definitely stay here again! It was super clean and comfy. Highly recommend.

Tori - Posted: 8/23/2021

We came to Key West for our son's wedding and were very happy with our stay with Last Key Rentals. Samantha and Patrick were amazing to work with. This condo is in a perfect location, so close to Duval Street and all it has to offer, as well as the beach. We absolutely LOVED Fort Zachary State Park Beach (thank you for the recommendation, Samantha!) We also rented a golf cart, which I highly recommend.
We can't wait to return and stay with Last Key Rentals, again, in the future.

Dawn - Posted: 8/15/2021

Such a great place! Location is perfect. The place was really clean and Last Key was nothing short of spectacular in their assistance.

Rob - Posted: 8/10/2021

Cannot say enough good things about this listing! Communication was fantastic, living space was spacious and comfortable, and the neighborhood is quiet. Within walking distance to southernmost point and much of Key West!

Maureen - Posted: 7/12/2021

Beautiful home that felt like an art gallery in a fun cool way ??

Kwabena - Posted: 5/28/2021

Thank you for choosing to vacation with Last Key! We look forward to hosting you again next time you're in Key West.

Last Key Realty staff

Had a wonderful stay in key west!
The house is ideally located so you can do a lot of things by foot and perfect size for our family of 4.
It is very close to all the restaurants and shopping but very calm at night. Get ready to wake up early, roasters are everywhere ;-)
Highly recommend this place and can’t wait to come back !

Laure - Posted: 4/22/2021

Thank you for choosing to vacation with Last Key! We look forward to hosting you again next time you're in Key West.

This cottage is wonderful! The tropical colors are so inviting. It is located close to Southern Most Point.
The kitchen is well stocked with plates, cups, bowls, etc. There is a coffee maker and a toaster. The appliances seem new. We did not use the stove. There is a nice, private deck with a grill.
The neighborhood is quiet. A big plus is the on site parking.

JoAnn - Posted: 3/27/2021

Clean, Spacious, Great Location, and Excellent Service.
The condo was clean and spacious enough for my parents, my fiance, and I to spend the weekend. The patio is an excellent feature of this unit.
Location-wise, its a perfect spot if you want to be close to the action, but not the noise of Duval street. It's also two blocks away from Hemingway House and we easily walked to the Southernmost Point.
With regards to service, Samantha was amazing, incredibly friendly, and very responsive.

Sarah - Posted: 1/17/2021

We will be back!! This stay was absolutely perfect! It is very close to Duval St. The private deck is amazing, with the perfect amount of lighting. Parking was definitely a plus! The interior makes you feel like you are staying in a beach house.
This stay was 5 STARs on all levels. Thank you for having us.

Melissa - Posted: 1/12/2021

Great place to stay. Conveniently located! Easy to communicate with the host!

Kerry - Posted: 1/8/2021

Great location in Key West. Would stay again next time I am in the area!

Jeff - Posted: 11/15/2020

The Mellow Macaw is so cutely decorated with anything you would need for your stay in Key West. It was really clean and close to everything we wanted to experience while in town. Samantha went above and beyond to help schedule bicycle rentals and make sure we were enjoying our stay. I can’t wait to come back down & would HIGHLY recommend staying here to anyone.

Dixie - Posted: 11/11/2020

Such a great place!! :) quiet area but walking distance to everything! This was perfect because we could leave our car in the driveway and not worry about it for days. The back porch is so nice and we wished we would have made dinner on the grill one night because it was perfect for that! Samantha left us a key lime pie in the fridge for when we got there and we were so excited about that! Thank you so much we hope to be back again next year!! :)

Emily - Posted: 10/5/2020

Great place, at a good location. I would stay here again.

Davor - Posted: 9/21/2020

Great place in a wonderful location. Highly recommend

Mason - Posted: 8/2/2020

The Mellow Macaw is a small 2 bedroom bungalow in typical “old Key West” style. While small, as long as numbers are kept reasonable, all activities are possible: cooking, eating, laundering, hot-tubbing etc. Beyond 4, this model of unit would quickly become crowded. The unit was clean, bright and very useable. The deck/patio had a hot tub, table w/4 chairs and a gas grill, plus a little “shed” in which the washer/dryer was located. We enjoyed all aspects and used everything but the grill (ran out of time).
The location is just two blocks down from Hemingway House, 5 blocks from Blue Heaven and no more than 10 blocks from the center of Duval Street. We walked to most places and found this quite convenient. But a key feature is the fact that the place comes with its own parking place! How convenient!
Our host was excellent, contacting me ahead of time to ensure that I knew how to let ourselves in, and ensuring we had critical supplies and a list of places that deceiver as we got in late.
If you are a smaller group (4 or fewer), this is a great property located in the Conch republic!

Michael - Posted: 1/4/2020

This is in a great location, so close to all the sites we wanted to visit.We really liked having a concierge tema to answer questions and help us make our vacation special. We were greeted at the house by Samantha who made us feel welcome.

Kate - Posted: 12/28/2019

We loved our stay at the Mellow Macaw. The location was perfect! We were just a block off Duval Street, but in a relatively quiet neighborhood. The cottage was very well-decorated, and it was very clean. We had everything we needed for a well stay. The private deck and hot tub were also a nice touch that we enjoyed. The rental company does a great job and are very easily accessible by text. We would definitely stay here again!

Margie - Posted: 11/16/2019

We look forward to having you come back, Margie!

This is a special place. Our host added unique touches and surprises to make our stay extra special. Beautifully decorated with everything we needed and more.

Julie - Thank you for the glowing review! It was such a pleasure to host you :)

Inmejorable, por su situación en la ciudad, por sus servicios y por la atención con la que te tratan, para repetir!!!!

Frenando - Posted: 8/11/2019

Gracias Fernando! Realmente disfrutamos hospedar a su familia en The Mellow Macaw.

Last Key Realty staff

The unit is conveniently located just off Duval street on a quiet street and has full amenities including a hot tub and washer and dryer. The place is gorgeously decorated and has everything you would need from beach towels and chairs to a welcome Key Lime Pie and a chilled bottle of Prosecco. The staff are very responsive and the place is impeccably maintained. The complimentary concierge was extremely helpful booking sunset cruises and other activities for us. We stayed three nights, 2 adults and 2 older teenagers, and we had ample rom for all of us. The bathroom is well stocked and the hot tub was a great addition. We can’t wait to come back and stay here next time.

Francis - Posted: 7/31/2019

We're so thrilled to read this review! Thank you for being an outstanding guest and we hope to host you again :)

Perfect location! Could walk everywhere. Concierge service was extremely helpful! Super cute comfortable place!

Jill - Posted: 7/10/2019

Thanks Jill! We enjoyed hosting you and hope to have you back in the future.

Last Key Realty staff

We had a wonderful stay at the Mellow Macaw! The location was perfect, one block off Duval and far enough south to be away from the hubbub of cruise ships and super touristy crowds. But everything we wanted to see was within walking distance - Hemingway House, the lighthouse, Southernmost point, Mallory Square, all the shops and restaurants along Duval and Simonton, etc.
The hosts were awesome! They called me in advance to confirm our travel plans and ask what kind of beverages we wanted chilling in our home (wine for my mom, local beer for me) and our preference on Key Lime Pie. They checked in on us several times. The house is immaculately clean and very comfortable with a full kitchen and large bedrooms. If I get back to Key West I will definitely book again. Everything was just perfect.

Marshall - Posted: 6/16/2019

Thank you, Marshall! It was a pleasure hosting you and we're thrilled that you enjoyed your stay. Hope to host you again!

This was the most amazing air bnb experience I have ever had! The staff was incredible and went above and beyond for us. Sam was our coordinator and she not only gave us all the information we would need to enjoy our trip but also went out and got a shower chair and toilet seat for my disabled mom. We were greeted with a card, champagne and a delicious key lime pie! The house is walking distance from everything (convenient store a few houses away), adorable and so clean/organized. We cooked a lot of meals here and were able to do several loads of laundry. The hot tub was amazing on the nights we stayed in. The beds were very comfortable! Thank you Last key resorts!!!? We had a blast!!

Kimberly - Posted: 6/4/2019

Kimberly - it was such a pleasure meeting and hosting you and your family at The Mellow Macaw! We are so thrilled that we could add our special touch to your Key West vacation. We hope to host you again in the future :)

Scott Richard - Posted: 5/17/2019

Scott - Thanks for being a great guest. It would be our pleasure to host you again!

Last Key Realty staff

The only tiny thing we needed which wasn't provided were extra towels. The description said beach and bathing towels. For 4 of us, there were only 6 towels. Just wish we'd have known to pack beach towels. But they did provide a cooler (you just have to request) and beach chairs and umbrellas.
Other than that - Last Key was simply amazing. I can't imagine anyone does it better than them. My guest coordinator, Samantha, was great. She was so helpful, informative, coordinating to my time, and was available for immediate communications.
The concierge service was equally fantastic. As soon as I shot over an email with questions, they would either call or write back.
When I go back to Key West, if I don't stay at the Mellow Macaw, I'll definitely still stay at a place Last Key manages. On a scale of 1 to 10, they get a 9.5. Just those pesky towels. :)

Jennifer - Posted: 5/11/2019

Thank you for reviewing your stay and for the feedback about the lack of towels. We wish this would have been brought to our attention during your stay so we could have brought over more towels for your use. Additional towels have now been ordered for this home, so future guests will have 2 sets of both bath and beach towels per guest.

Last Key Realty staff

location, location, location!!! On top of that you truly get what is described. Samantha was there for anything we needed even popped in (asked if it was okay first) to make sure we were settled. Really can't say enough about the experience. Thanks and hope to be back soon!!

Wes - Posted: 4/4/2019

Thanks Wes! It was such a pleasure to meet and host you. We hope to have you back :)

Last Key Realty staff

The property is in a great location. It is walking distance to everything in Old Town. This is a unit on the back of a house with 2 bedrooms and a nice kitchen and living room. It was very quiet at night. Last Key did a great job welcoming us and telling us about the area with lots of really good recommendations.

Abre - Posted: 3/20/2019

Thanks for reviewing your stay at The Mellow Macaw. It would be our pleasure to host you again!

Awesome communication and very cute rental. Super comfortable and had everything we needed. The hot tub and grill came in very handy. Loved the private patio area. Excellent area, walking distance to everything and off street parking was perfect. We will be back.

Andrew - Posted: 12/3/2018

So glad to hear you enjoyed yourself and thank you for the high praise. We look forward to seeing you again next time!

Last Key Realty staff

When we arrived we were greeting by our host Amanda who gave us a quick tour and answered any questions we had. The unit was clean and stocked with all the essentials. The private patio and hot tub were a welcome addition. We enjoyed our stay tremendously and would recommend this until to others looking for a charming place to stay while in Key West.

Thanks Ashley! Come back and stay with us anytime!

Last Key Realty staff

This is a lovely, compact, wonderfully located place to stay in Key West. It's expertly managed--Last Key has one of the best communication setups I've ever encountered in Airbnb--and you couldn't ask for a better location. The beds and all the linens are super comfy and the lovely personal touches are wonderful. I recommend it highly.
There are two things travelers should be aware of neither of which have anything to do with Last Key. The first is that Key West has lots of roosters and we were awakened each morning at 5:30 by the neighborhood poultry. Second, the Mellow Macaw is a very small space and the only bathroom is in the middle of it. If you're someone who needs privacy to feel comfortable, this spot might be too small for you.

Dabney - Posted: 3/26/2018

We really enjoyed our stay. Two large bedrooms, very clean, and the champagne, OJ and Key Lime Pie we’re welcome additions. House was in a perfect location. Amanda was an awesome host.
