Feathers in the cap
A gem in Key West. Good coffee, French pastries and fresh berries at breakfast. Quiet and no kids.Wish property was non smoking. Watch out for seagulls at the pool. Roosters are a little noisy but you get used to it. Part of the charm.

Nice place, but not worth the money
Felt like i got a "bate and switch" i booked a hotel room with a balcony and a ocean view... i mostly had an ocean view. They put us in there property next door, which is not pictured on there website. There was a noisy air-conditioner we had to lister to all day and night from the restaurant that was on the beach. The staff slam pallets around at 4:30 in the morning. This was not worth the money we paid.

Not so great.
We stayed at the Mansion for 2 nights. The pool was ice cold the entire stay, we were told the heater was broken. In the future we will never stay in room 106 again, it is right next to the public restrooms that are open to the public until 8 pm. Which is very noisy and annoying because of all the people. The TV in the room worked the first night but the second night it did not work. The staff gave us $87 dollars off of our 2 night stay, which was $1200. We won’t be going back to this hotel, as there are several others to choose from in the Keys.

Extremely onerous for what it is. Staff is very friendly but it priced like a 5 stars or more and you get barely a 3 stars.

We wanted to have a few days away to unplug and relax. We spent most of the days in the great pool where we could be in the pool and gaze out at the water. With the palm tree providing filtered sun in the mid afternoon, it was a place I could have stayed for days. The rooms were great and clean. The staff was very pleasant, helpful and accommodating.

Really loved this hotel. The room was quaint but beautiful and well maintained. Bed was comfortable and everything worked as expected. The staff were very nice and easy to deal with. Also loved the location. Right at the very southernmost end of Duval Street, it was easy to get everywhere we went whether by Uber, golf cart, pedicab or walking. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you.

Rich in history.
An absolutely amazing stay. The hotel manager greeted us by name and took care of every detail, including getting us a table at their amazing cafe. We were greeted every morning, the breakfast and coffee were amazing and the staff was super helpful. The history, culture, and vibe of the hotel made it a truly unique and amazing experience. I would recommend it to everyone and we will definitely be back.

We found the customer service at The Mansion on the Sea to be outstanding. They pay attention to detail and offer assistance when needed. We met the owner while there, and that is something you almost never see at corporately run resorts. We would highly recommend and will return again.
