Ella's Cottages in Key West truly exceeded my expectations with its charming environment and caring staff. The beautiful landscaping and cozy setting made it feel like a tropical paradise. However, I did find the pool area to be a bit small, and the breakfast options could use more variety. Overall, it was a good stay that I would gladly repeat! 🌴🌞

I had a lovely stay at Ella's Cottages, appreciated the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. The location was perfect, just a short walk from bustling Duval Street. However, my bungalow experience varied with high expectations and some disappointing aspects, particularly regarding my room's cleanliness and layout. Overall, it was a pleasant retreat with room for improvement. 😊

I had mixed feelings about my stay at Ella's Cottages. On one hand, the location was fantastic, just a block from Duval Street, making it easy to explore. On the other hand, my room was quite dark and didn't match the vibrant photos online, which was disappointing. The breakfast was decent but lacked fresh fruit and variety. The service was friendly, though, which definitely brightened my experience overall.

The breakfast included was okay, but I was hoping for more options like fresh fruit. It kind of stuck to pastries and cold cereal, which was a bit of a letdown.
