Description

This two-bedroom, two-bath classic contemporary is the perfect headquarters for your dream vacation. The entire inside is painted cloud white. This choice creates not only a crisp, clean elegance but also serves as the perfect backdrop for an amazing art collection. It's fitting that this special residence isn't designated merely by a street number but rather is named Valhalla. Of Norwegian descent or not, in a short time you'll come to appreciate the reference to heaven, to a personal piece of paradise.

Start your tour in the pool area, which easily comprises half the property. How appropriate this outdoor space allocation is for an island boasting 260 sunny days per year. If you're like most vacationers, you'll want to spend a large chunk of time floating or swimming or just dangling your toes in the sparkling blue water.

If you're ready to read or nap, move from the heated waters of the Riviera-shaped pool to the stone deck and sink into lime-green chaise lounge chairs. Small cocktail tables wait nearby for your iPad or Kindle and beverage. You can stretch out in sun or shade depending on the time and the play of sunlight through the verdant tropical foliage ringing the deck area.

And when you want complete shade, move to the adjacent wood-planked, roofed veranda. Here you'll find potted plants, a conversation area, a dining area for six, and a barbeque grill. Sit to enjoy some fresh tropical fruit or a sinful slice of Key Lime pie. This sheltered space is also perfect in case of brief tropical showers. You can enjoy the rain and soak up the healthy effects of negative ions while staying dry and comfortable.

Now step through the back door to enter the house. You're immediately in a "great room" that serves as the family room, TV or movie viewing room, living room, and study. The great room centers around a white couch with three cinnabar pillows arranged among white cushions. The red/orange square pillows reference the three framed paintings on the wall above. These works create a stunning contrast of vibrant palate of reds, blues, yellows against the rectangular white wall and vaulted ceiling above. Everything is white except the art in this room, down the hall, and in the bedrooms. The collection is eclectic and diverse, ranging from ancient to contemporary, from local to world famous, from found objects to sculpture to carvings to paintings.

To the right as you stand at the back door is a compact, functional kitchen that has everything you need to whip up some delicious one-bite appetizers or full meals. A wrought-iron rack suspended from the ceiling puts cookware and utensils at your fingertips, adds visual interest, and maximizes storage space. On the left is a convenient open-shelf pass-through that compliments the open floor plan.

From the kitchen, move down the hallway, which has more fabulous art on the right and three doors on the left. The first and third doors open into comfortable bedrooms and the one in between is a full bath. The first bedroom offers a queen bed with puffy white duvet, white bed linens, white louvered closet space, white dresser, and more colorful art. The second bedroom, the master suite, features a queen bed dressed in puffy white linens as well with the added convenience of another full bath. You know by just looking that you could sleep peacefully in either bedroom.

But before bedtime, there's vacation fun to be had: the tours, beaches, museums, water sports, shopping, bars, and over two hundred restaurants await you. To know what the Southernmost City has to offer from minute to minute, get a copy of Paradise, the free weekly round-up of local activity available almost everywhere or check the Calendar page at milezerokeywest.com. Both sources list the current music scene, movies, plays, gallery openings, and charitable events just to name a few. You will find plenty to entertain you. And you can still look forward to going back to your own private heaven, sleeping soundly, and getting up tomorrow to do it all over again. And at vacation's end, Valhalla will stick in your mind, will call you back.

To know what's going on from day to day, check out Historic Hideaways' informative Events page on our website. Other information on the current music scene, movies, plays, gallery openings, and charitable events include milezerokeywest.com and Paradise, which comes out every Thursday.

Free Delivery & set up (over $75) of Beer / Wine / Liquor is available from Kwest Liquors, 705 Duval St. Historic Hideaways Guests receive a discount on pricing. Order in advance and have your Vacation Home fully stocked upon arrival! Contact our office in advance for details.

Valhalla is a great place to stay in Key West. The size of the house was perfect for 3 of us; we could easily have fit another 1 or 2. The layout is good and it was well-appointed and clean. The house has everything you might need during your stay. Everything. The varied artwork is quite appealing. By far the best part of the house is the backyard. If there hadn't been so many things to do in Key West, I could easily have spent the week relaxing and reading by the pool. Surrounded by many different types of palm trees, you feel like you are in a tropical paradise.The house is in a quiet section of town, and is walking distance to everything. Higgs Beach is the closest, just a short walk. Southernmost Point is also very close. Many great restaurants are close by. Uber and Lyft are easy to get if you need to get somewhere further away. Check-in and check-out couldn't have been easier and the concierge services worked out well for us. All of the staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again!

Location was fabulous2 blocks off upper Duval and still an Old Town neighborhood feel. Historic Hideaways service was excellent. Dryer quit working and a new one was installed 24 hrs later. Valhalla is an interesting Conch house expansion with a lovely pool & loads of very nice outdoor space & seating for sitting by the pool and dining al fresco. The living room is small & rectangular, making indoor seating/conversation/TV watching awkward for even 3 people. There are no bedroom TVs in the homedisappointing given the high price point of the rental

Two blocks from the quiet end of Duval. Three blocks from the Southernmost Point. Ample on street parking and you can walk to Louies Backyard. (rental agent) and his team at HH are first class and first rate all the way. This house is beautifully appointed, perfect for two singles or two couples. The backyard is an oasis.

Valhalla was very clean upon arrival. We noted new (and much needed) pool-side furniture, since last visit and it was very comfortable. The location is quiet, private and feels "off the beaten track", yet close to the restaurants and places we like to visit. Several problems occurred, but we're promptly remedied: both propane tanks for the grill we're empty and the kitchen blender did not work. Finally as a heads up the trash pick-up is Tuesday, so guests should be advised to put trash at curb on Monday eve NOT Tues eve.

The Valhalla property was outstanding! The house was spotless and included every amenity that we could have asked for. It was tastefully decorated with beautiful artwork. The furniture was very comfortable. The location was within walking/biking distance to the beaches and the downtown. We enjoyed the pool, but had to get some extra directions via a phone call, to turn on the heat. The best part of our stay was the ability to bike and walk everywhere. I highly recommend reserving bikes for the duration of one's stay. Also, we loved Garbo's Grill so much, we ate lunch there three times. This is a must stop for a fresh and delicious bite! We would definitely rent this or any other property from Historic Hideaways in the future. One last note: The Concierge service is one added bonus that we benefited from. They arranged our trip to the Dry Tortuga's, bikes rentals, and dinner reservations. Thank you so much for making our trip spectacular!

The house and location were perfect. The quality of the beds, the linens, the dishes and cutlery, kitchen appliances all excellent. Would have liked a garbage disposal but imagine that was not possible in Key West. Fausto market surprising good and walk able. Only slightly negative was the really cold pool. I think your instructions for heating could be more accommodating. Forget having an artificial date of not heating before 1 December if there are cool nights in the middle of November or other times. But all in all an excellent stay.

Valhalla was a great place to stay! It had everything we needed. I was so happy to do laundry throughout the week & washed all our clothes before packing them up. This made unpacking a cinch. I also ironed while there. It's the little things that make me happy! The pool was great. The living room chairs were my favorite after walking in the humid heat & enjoying a nap in the air conditioning. We bought seafood from a local food market on Eaton & it was fantastic to be able to grill at the house. My only regret was leaving my frozen chocolate covered Key Lime pie in the freezer! I hope the next guest enjoyed it though

We rented the Valhalla house on United street. The house is beautiful and the pool and deck area are breathtaking. The house was very clean and had plenty of towels an the kitchen had all the utensils and appliances needed for cooking. The location on United street is a little too far from Duval for me and there is a lot of construction going on the few blocks around Valhalla. The house beside Valhalla is under construction and there were a lot of work vans and other vehicles parked in front of the house. Not having off street parking and the noise from the construction were my only complaints

The house was GREAT! It was a little further to the main area of Duval but the walk/taxi was worth it. The pool area was awesome. Historic Hideaways was very friendly and helpful. I would recommend them to anyone that is making their way to Key West. We have been coming to Key West for 20 years. We have stayed in many places. Renting a house is so much better then staying in a hotel. Thank You Historic Hideaways for another great adventure! See you next year!

We had a wonderful week at Valhalla. The house is beautiful and super clean. The backyard and pool are lovely. It's perfectly situated, close to the Southernmost end of the island, near great restaurants, the beach, etc. My only disappointment was the temperature of the pool. We paid extra to have the pool heated, but 86 was not adequate. So we paid the extra money but never used the pool. That was a shame.

Looking forward to the next trip!

Loved the new items - outdoor lounge bed, outdoor shower, and flotation choices! As always, the home is beautiful, comfortable, and well maintained. This end of Duval is a bit slower paced but still has much to offer and is less crowded than the end where the cruise ships come in. Looking forward to the next trip!

Beautiful house! The house was spacious enough for a group of 4. The pool is the perfect size and is surrounded by a fantastic entertaining area. The distance to the main part of Duval is a little further than we would have liked (stayed in August- it was hot!), but it was really easy and quick to get a cab. We would definitely stay here again!

Valhalla had all we needed - close enough to the action to walk, quiet poolside, lovely design, well appointed kitchen and comfortable bedrooms. Parking is not ideal since the is no dedicated space, but everything else allowed my husband and me plus our grown daughter and her boyfriend to enjoy all Key West had to offer whatever our mood and energy level! We all want to come back and Valhalla will be our first choice for accommodations.

The most wonderful place ever!

i will be back. My family loved it. It was just what our family needed. We felt at home not just in the house but in Key West. The location was perfect. We appreciate the attention to detail.
