We spent five nights with our family at Villa of the Setting Sun in March 2026, and it was exactly the kind of getaway we were hoping for. As advertised, the property is a stunning and private retreat, featuring a beautiful pool, tasteful furnishings, and plenty to enjoy without ever needing to leave the grounds.
The home was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The kitchen, indoor and outdoor dining areas, game room, and living spaces were all beautifully maintained and inviting. One thing we especially appreciated was how quiet the property was—everyone in our family slept extremely well. There was also more than enough room for everyone to spread out and enjoy a little privacy when desired.
The location was another major advantage. It is close enough to Key West to make early morning charter departures easy, while still offering a more peaceful setting away from the crowds. There are also several very good restaurants nearby. Murray’s Market just up the road, while somewhat pricey, is convenient and well stocked with the essentials for preparing meals at the house.
The kitchen itself deserves special mention. It is stunning, equipped with newly updated appliances, and a genuine pleasure to cook in. We also found the property management team to be responsive, helpful, and easy to work with throughout our stay.
This was exactly the place we needed for a brief family vacation. Villa of the Setting Sun is a wonderful choice, and I expect anyone who stays here will be very pleased with that decision.
