The Mermaid and the Alligator
The Mermaid and the Alligator is a well known Key West B&B located right on the main drag, Truman Ave. You can’t miss it even if you’re not looking for it- right on the corner of Truman and Windsor Lane, a block over from the Key West Cemetery. It’s on the edge of Old Town, and walking inward from the B&B you can easily stroll the back streets and discover the charm and beauty of Key West’s oldest part of town.
Built in 1904, The Mermaid and the Alligator is a stately large Victorian, and rooms are tastefully decorated in a rich, warm and slightly antique-ey style. The porches are very wide, and the gardens are lush lush lush. They call it a sunken grotto garden, and there’s a pool and patio for guests. Sit under Poinciana trees or take a dip in the heated plunge pool as you unwind and sink into the ultimate Key West vacation you so badly need!
Breakfast is served every morning. It’s yogurt and home baked muffins followed by a hot breakfast entree. You’re all set! In the living room guests can get online or just relax in the rich surroundings before strolling down the street to Duval, the beach, or wherever their Key West vacation takes them from the doors of The Mermaid and the Alligator.
