Inn Details
Garden House Bed and Breakfast is very centrally located, only a block or two from Duval Street, the Historic Seaport, Mallory Square and Caroline Street, to name a few. We are a fun and relaxed B&B, with 10 rooms, all with private baths. Here at Garden House Key West Bed and Breakfast, we want you to have a great time, and relax, it's island time! As we show you to your room you'll most likely hear laughter spilling around the building from the other guests enjoying the free happy hour, you'll be waved over to join in the fun. We recommend you dump your bags and get to the party. At happy hour you'll discover the charm of our heated lagoon style pool with spa jets and a cascading waterfall, surrounded by tropical gardens that weave throughout the Inn grounds. Along with our beautiful grounds, and nightly happyhour, you'll also be treated to a continental breakfast each morning.

Signature Dish
Tropical Breeze Coffee Cake
This recipe has been an incredible hit. Since I've never been much of a fan of plain old blueberry anything (fresh blueberries is another story) I decided to dress up our ordinary fresh baked blueberry bread by replacing one item and adding a couple of new ones to the batter. Try it... you will absolutely love it! First... replace water called for in recipe with orange juice. Then... add the following add'l ingredients to already mixed batter: 3/4 cup drained pineapple 1 cup shredded coconut 2 large spoonfuls of sour cream 3 T. oil Mix all ingredients together and spread into greased pan. Bake approx. 50 minutes @ 350 F. or until knife inserted in the center comes out clean. "This is so incredibly good there won't be any leftovers... believe me!"

Small room has not been updated for awhile. Comfort of guest does not seem to be a priority (inadequate lighting at night, only a small towel ring by sink, small rod to hang clothes, bathroom rug not washed for some time.) But location is great.

Because of this woman, we are going to book our next stay at the Garden House! Yes, the accomodations were perfect for my husband and myself! Yes, the location was absolutely perfect! We had such a nice time in a GREAT place! Thank you and we cannot wait to come back!

We totally enjoyed our 2011 Christmas weekend at Garden House. We chose a small room based on price, but everything was clean and the whole experience very enjoyable. The location is excellent and John is a great host. We'll be back!
