Families, Friends, Special Events-Paradise found! Tiki hut by the 50ft lap pool

Summary:
Wow! The KEY WEST PALM BEACH mission is to make this the best experience you have had using a vacation rental! No need to walk to the Intracoastal waterway when you have a 180-degree direct view from this Key West-style house designed after the famous Fogarty's House on Duval Street in Key West. To enhance your experience of the great views of the Intracoastal, we added a 3rd story rooftop deck with a spa and a 4th story "Crow's Nest"!

Who will love this home:
Mature guests will fall in love with this home and the amazing views of the Intracoastal Waterway! It will take your breath away! It is in a beautiful residential area, one house off Flagler Drive, and is not a site for parties/events, but rather a beautiful well-appointed getaway for family, friends, and golfers! Families, friends, golfers paradise in amazing Key West style home next to Florida's beautiful intercoastal.

The Awesome Location:
100 feet from Intracoastal and Flagler Drive. Sunrise, Sunset, and anytime walks, biking, jogging, skipping, and strolling the walkway along the water! Manatees in the Winter, Dolphin sightings, Blue Herons, and much more wildlife year-round! Abundant amenities include a backyard retreat with a tiki hut and pool, rooftop hot tub, and more. There are great restaurants within walking distance. We have 9 sets of golf clubs and Palm Beach County has the most golf courses per capita anywhere. The Park, a Tiger Woods-affiliated golf course is newly constructed and is located a couple of miles away and Palm Beach Par 3 along the ocean is amazing. Also, you are minutes from downtown West Palm Beach, Palm Beach, Lake Worth, and the ocean. The deal just became better!

Unforgettable Accents:
The third-floor rooftop deck provides a great place to relax in the hot tub overlooking the Intracoastal. So does the 4th floor “Crow's Nest”, with its spectacular panoramic views, including those beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Both are easily accessible using the 3-floor elevator. A dumb waiter can bring up your food and beverages as well. The backyard Pergola (Tiki Hut) was recently installed, and along with Tiki Torches and the 50’ lap pool, provide an “island feel”. The recently installed Gas Lanterns bring that Key West feel as well! The pool is maintained at 86 degrees unless a cold snap occurs. There is a poolside shower as well. The kitchen is designed for a cooking paradise with TWO 4 gas burners and TWO ovens for great entertaining. The “aquarium” dining room provides a unique area for entertaining.

The Key West Legacy in West Palm Beach:
The home was designed after a Duval Street historic Key West home—Fogarty’s House. It was the American Red Cross Designer Showcase Home in 2013, (and featured in the 2014 Traditional Home Magazine). The unique decor will add to your enjoyment of this spacious home, with its state-of-the-art features.

A must stay in WPB!

We cannot recommend this home enough! It was hard to find a place to accommodate our group of 13 ladies, but I am so glad we found this home. It was the perfect amount of space, had all of the essentials you’d need, and was in a great location. Susan and Kevin were extremely easy to get in touch with and gave us a thorough tour of the home when we arrived. Only issue was you have to be cautious about noise. The neighbor behind the house is too “sensitive” to noise in my opinion. We were extremely courteous during our stay and made very minimal noise, but at one point he got mad when we had a group cheer out back by the pool. If your group is noisy, I wouldn’t stay there.

Amazing Stay!

We had the most exquisite stay at the Kunkel property — truly a decadent experience from start to finish. The home perfectly blends luxurious comfort and eclectic style, with every detail thoughtfully curated. From the plush furnishings to the modern decor, each room offered something unique and memorable. The photos simply don’t do it justice, this place is even more stunning in person.What really set it apart were the thoughtful amenities: coffee and fridges in every room made mornings easy and evenings indulgent. The steam shower was an extra nice touch—a spa-like escape after a day of exploring. Kevin was a delight to communicate with—warm, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our stay special. Thank you, Kunkels, for creating such a sheik and unforgettable retreat. We can’t wait to return!

Awesome House!

This house was nothing short of amazing! With 12 women staying together, we never felt like it was too crowded. The elevator was a perk with not having to carry our luggage up and down the steps. The tour we received from Kevin upon check in was great to get the ins and outs before our stay. All the amenities that were included were awesome and we had a great time! I would definitely recommend this house to any large party staying in West Palm!

Property is as advertised. Great for groups and families. 10mins max to get to all the hot spots in the area. The pool out back is fantastic and there’s ample shade to keep you from getting toasted by the sun. Definitely would stay here again.

Great week in WPB!

A one of a kind, amazing property with accommodating and gracious owners. We had an overall incredible experience: from the initial communications regarding our visit; to the owners' tour of the property; to the versatility of the house and beauty of the neighborhood; to the ease of the checkout process; every step made for an enjoyable stay! The house had EVERYTHING we could think of or want for our stay. Loved the thoughtfulness of having coffee machines in each bedroom, the use of the bikes and fishing poles kept the kids entertained, and the quiet pool and roof deck were a welcome sight at the end of a hectic day of baseball. In all, a very memorable and enjoyable stay!! THANK YOU!

Fabulous setting for Family Gathering

Wow! Everything about this house exceeded our expectations. It was the perfect setting for three generations of our family to gather to celebrate my mom's 80th birthday. There was plenty of room for several families and all the kids. The house was beautiful, and the hosts struck the perfect balance between being attentive to our needs, but still giving us space and privacy. Everything we could have wanted was anticipated. The kitchen was well appointed, with all the equipment we needed to cook great meals. The pool was amazing and the hot tub on the roof was a great place to relax with a view. The kids loved the bikes in the garage for our use, complete with helmets for safety, along with everything needed for a day at the beach - chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, coolers, bags, and even a picnic basket. The elevator was very much appreciated by my 80 year old mother, giving her full access to the entire house. I cannot reccomment this place highly enough. If our travels ever bring us back to West Palm, this is the place to stay.

Best house ever

I could not believe how amazing this house was, it was perfect in every way. We were staying in Palm Beach for our multi-generational family reunion and couldn't have asked for a better place. We spent hours in the pool, playing games, and cooking big meals in the kitchen. There were lots of extra touches and the hosts really went above and beyond to make this the best rental house for a family trip. I can pretty confidently say I will never find a house better than this again. WOW. I will say, that if you are looking for a party house you should not stay here. It's a residential neighborhood and the rules about quiet hours reflect that. This is a place for families or couples to gather respectfully.

About the host

Host profile image
I am a health care professional as a Nurse Practitioner I built this house after traveling to Key West and seeing "Fogarty's House". I used it as a model and added a rooftop deck with a spa and a crow's nest on the fourth floor. I hope everyone will enjoy the views we have. A tiki hut and island theme with the 50-foot long lap pool creates a great getaway! So get ready to have the vacation/ get together/ family reunion etc of a lifetime and enjoy Palm Beach!

Why they chose this property

The location adjacent to the Intracoastal as its proximity to Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Lake Worth Beach and all South Florida has to offer. So many major events occur in West Palm Beach and South Florida that this house is fantastic with a maximum guests of nineteen and a crib.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy an amazing night of free Netflix, Amazon Prime and a 65-inch home theater with surround sound! The rooftop deck, rooftop spa, and many seating options for family and friends. Unparalleled views of the Intracoastal waterway. Exterior recorded security cameras for guests' safety. MINUT Noise monitoring devices ensure that your stay is as enjoyable for you as it is for our neighbors. If you modify or change security cameras then the contract is void if damage occurs due to the change you made to the security cameras. The cameras are in place for your protection and if you change them we can not assure your safety.
