About This Property
A Touch of Cuba is a privately owned, two-bedroom, one-bathroom condominium in the Shipyard section of Truman Annex — one of Key West's most sought-after residential neighborhoods. Located on Southard Street, the main entrance to the Truman Annex, the property is within walking distance of Duval Street, the Ernest Hemingway Home, the Key West Butterfly Conservatory, and the island's best restaurants, galleries, and beaches.
This is the owner's personal home — not a managed rental — which means it is impeccably maintained and thoughtfully appointed. Cuban artwork and warm, restful colors throughout reflect the owner's extensive educational and humanitarian travel to Cuba, giving the space a distinctive character you won't find in a standard vacation rental.

Great location. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to, and there is bus/trolley/taxi service when we got tired. Easy and fast communication with Jack whenever I had a question, before we arrived and while we were there . Great neighborhood, quiet and relaxed.

We had a wonderful time at A Touch of Cuba!! Great set up and everything was there for you at this condo. Awesome location you can walk to so many places!! If you have any questions you may ask Jack the owner, he was amazing and could answer any questions about the island. I would definitely recommend this condo we had a blast!!
