We absolutely love Ella’s Cottages. Micheal at the front desk was very helpful before we arrived with great directions and convenient parking arrangements. That made our check in a simple breeze. The accommodations were beautiful. The bathroom was wonderful as was the spacious bedroom, comfortable bed and the relaxing living room. The breakfast area was terrific and full of health options and exactly what we had hoped for. Late afternoon tea was a joy including the scrumptious biscotti! Dwight and cottage staff were cordial and friendly and we will be back next year and even hope to visit again mid season for a weekend. Thank you!

Great place to stay!!
My husband and I stayed here for an anniversary trip. We had a nice king room at the end of the building with a large patio. We enjoyed the breakfast and afternoon tea and the welcome drink was a nice surprise! The pool area was nice and we enjoyed relaxing by the pool when we weren't out exploring Key West. The hotel is only a block or so from Duval but the property is so quiet and relaxing you would never know it. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to visit Key West! We would definitely return!
Beautiful large shaded patio!!

We enjoyed our stay. Diana and Michael set the tone as you check in or out. Both of them are an asset to this establishment. Morning breakfast and tea was delicious. Morning wakup call with the roosters made this place charming. Great location!

Good Value with exceptionally great staff
Great location just a block off of Duval. Bus stop for the Duval Loop (free bus service that loops around Key West) is just outside the front door. Bed was quite comfy, and breakfast was excellent. Note that if you're a light sleeper, you don't want to be in the City Rooms. They're just a few feet off the street and you'll hear trucks and motorcycles go by. Book the rooms off the street with the patios. Great splash pool and access to Winslow Cottages pool (larger with a bar) just a few blocks away.

Great location
Comfortable stay. The really great thing was the location. Right off of Duval, and almost in the middle point of the island. Very peaceful and quiet. I will say that it was very hot at night. There is an AC but it only cooled the front room and not the sleeping area.

We really liked the location. We were one block off Duval. It was easy to walk to everything throughout the town. The staff was very helpful and friendly. They offered breakfast, snacks and drinks. We enjoyed a dip in the pool to cool down after a busy day touring the town. The room and the property was clean. We would definitely stay here again!

I would like to start by saying that staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. I liked the vibe of the property overall. The room was much smaller and less equipped than I expected for the price. The road traffic was incredibly loud to the point that I almost switched to a different location after the first night. The room did not have a traditional dresser and overall it was fairly cramped. I did not see the other rooms on property, but I would not recommend the city room to anyone.
