Frommer's Review

At last, the true garden of Eden has been located -- and it's on Angela Street in Key West. Once a private residence, the Gardens Hotel (whose main house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places) is hidden amidst the exotic Peggy Mills tropical botanical gardens. Behind the greenery is a Bahamian-style hideaway featuring luxuriously appointed rooms in the main house, garden and courtyard rooms in the carriage house, and one über-secluded cottage. I stayed in a courtyard room and didn't want to leave, even though the place is within walking distance of frenetic Duval Street. A gorgeous free-form pool is centered in the courtyard, where a Tiki bar serves libations. The Jacuzzi is hidden behind beautiful landscaping. Guest rooms are resplendent, with hardwood floors, brass and iron beds, marble bathrooms, Aveda products, and a sense of serenity that words can't describe. Winding brick pathways leading to secluded seating areas in the private gardens make for an idyllic getaway that's the quintessence of paradise. Note: If you plan to party, do not stay here -- guests tend to be on the quieter, more sophisticated side.

Facilities:
Pool; bar
