J Ferrara #9: Charming Studio Oasis, Steps from Duval Street, Southernmost Point & Shared Pool!

Welcome to J Ferrara, your ideal retreat in the heart of Key West!

Nestled on a quiet street in the artist-inspired condominium complex in Bahama Village, The Galleria has a rich history dating back to the early 1900s. It was once a popular spot for traveling artists who came to Key West for inspiration and showcased their work in the nearby art galleries on Duval Street. Our cozy studio offers a peaceful base for your fun, adventurous vacation. Just 10 blocks from the beach & a short 2.5 blocks from the famous Duval Street, our location provides easy access to the best of Key West. Whether you're returning from a day of sun & sand, a boat excursion, or a leisurely stroll down Duval Street, our studio is the perfect Old Town Key West stay! Our vacation rental is named after one of our dear and talented friends, James Ferrara of J Ferrara Gallery. Based in South Florida, James specializes in underwater photography. You will find several of his pieces throughout the room! Whether you seek relaxation, adventure, or a mix of both, J Ferrara provides the perfect base for your Key West getaway.

Due to our delayed flights we arrived at 3am only to not be able to unlock the entry door but i called the phone number and surprisedly got a fast response with the codes we needed to enter. Room was comfortable, clean and very convient to walk anywhere. What surprised us most was the toilet in the bathroom.....5 stars. You will have to rent the room to find out.

Great Couples Getaway!

We loved everything about this rental. It was tiny of course, especially that shower, BUT this was in the add and nothing surprising. It was so cozy for us! No problem parking on the street and the location is great! It was an easy walk to Duval street and a quick ride anywhere else! Would definitely rent again! Everything was just as pictured!

Would stay again

Pros: Nice pool area. Location is perfect to Duval Street and Southernmost Point. We were able to walk everywhere (an uber to the wharf for sunset cruise, but it was cheap.) Bed is comfy, as are pillows and that is a rarity that both are amazing!Cons: I think it's perfect for a 2 - 3 day stay. 6 nights - it gets a little cramped. The shower, well....clingy shower curtain in such tight quarters is a bit invasive, lol. No place to sit in room and work. Only one beach chair under bed. Overall: The room is on par with all rooms in the building and it made for some fun poolside chatter, lol. Will return.

Great location

You can’t beat the location. Great pool. The room was a lot smaller than we expected. Not much room to do anything other than sleep…..but we didn’t go to Key West to stay in the room…so it wasn’t that big of a deal. We would recommend to no more than one or two people staying.

Our Happy Place

We've now been to Key West 3 years in a row and stayed at The Galleria House the last 2 years. We love the area because it is close to everything we enjoy doing like hanging out at Ft. Zach and walking to Flamingo Crossing for an ice cream. It would be nice if the rooms were bigger, but for the amount of time spent inside it really doesn't bother us. Having the ability to wash and dry clothes makes lite travelers like us happy. The pool is a great spot to hangout in the evenings. We recommend this place to those fellow travelers just looking for a place to crash after exploring all day.

Perfect for a few nights in Key West!

The location was perfect!! We were able to walk or bike anywhere...very close to restaurants, Duvall St, Southernmost point. The condo is very small, as others have mentioned, but we didnt come to spend time in our room. I felt like there was enough room for 2 of us to sleep and get ready comfortably. I would stay here again!

Flop house

I have used Vbro for a while and I am no novice to housing on Key West. It was not clean and maintanance was an issue. Tile floor in the shower was very cracked. I walked in through the door looked around and very quickly backed out. I am very aware of black mold. I didn't even stay long enough to take pictures. I couldn't. If your group looking for a place to flop this is the place. I did call the number and Vbro really must start taking the absent owners and businesses that put up the offer. So I will be going back to the hotel game. Hey at least they have a view of the sunset.

Fit what we needed perfectly

So yes...it's small, but that fit perfectly for my wife & I. She's shorter than I am and loved the shower...I'm 6'1" but was able to make it work as well. It's got everything you need...bed, fridge, bathroom, fairly private pool...and it's Key West - not a place to hunker down in your room! The location is great for Duval & Whitehead, and bike rentals are nearby if you want to venture East. I would say my only suggestion is it may be time for a new mattress.
