Family-friendly condominiums on the marina with a waterfront bar
The Coconut Mallory Resort and Marina by Kees Vacations is a family-friendly and affordable getaway in Key West that’s designed like a condominium property, with tropical landscaping lining pathways and small roads that lead to several three-story buildings. The one-story lobby is quaint and basic, with wooden ceilings, free coffee, and colorful tropical paintings on the walls. Tourist pamphlets, books on loan, and a water cooler are also in the lobby. Patio furniture, picnic tables, and newspaper vending machines are placed throughout the grounds. The resort is directly on the marina, offering 18 boat rental spaces. The boathouse bar -- that also attracts locals -- offers tables on the marina and indoor seating in a rustic room, with fishing net dangling from the ceiling. There are a pool table, foosball, darts, and several flat-screen TVs. Some snacks are available. The overall atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly.
Location
On the east coast of Key West
The resort sits on an eastern harbor that’s removed from the Old Town crowds of Key West. The Old Town Trolley stop, at the Marriott Beachside Hotel, is in walking distance. Fort East Martello Museum is a two-minute drive. The closest beaches are one mile away. It’s a five-minute drive to restaurants, shops, a movie theater, and the Key Plaza Shopping Center. The Key West International Airport is a five-minute drive. Dry Tortugas National Park is a 10-minute drive. The Ernest Hemingway Museum and Key West Lighthouse are 10 minutes by car. It’s a 10-minute drive to Duval Street. Mallory Square -- near the Key West Aquarium -- is a 15-minute car trip.
