1. The Carysfort Lighthouse Suite near Duval Street


If you're looking for a little slice of luxury nestled away (but very close to) Duval Street, the Carysfort Lighthouse Suite is for you. But don't be fooled by its name: the 'suite' is actually a one-bed, 1.5 bath stand-alone home. There's also a private porch to while away an evening on, or a choice of two pools to dive right into. Other high-end amenities are the norm here, such as smart TVs, speedy Wi-Fi and premium linens, but the real draw is its location in Old Town, with Duval Street a few blocks away and only a 10-minute drive from Dry Tortugas National Park – if you're keen to explore.
Rooms? 1 bed, 1.5 baths.
The mood? Quiet luxury.
Location perks? Easy distance from most local attractions.
Budget range? A little pricey, but worth it.
