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

Welcome to J Ferrara #9, 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 #9 provides the perfect base for your Key West getaway.

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.

Clean, simple and as expected.

We had some difficulty with our check-in instructions which were resolved. Otherwise the property was as described, clean, small and adequate. We found parking easily and the pool was well kept and wonderful to swim in. The location is close to shopping, restaurants and the beach. I recommend this property if all you need is place to sleep and enjoy a dip in the pool.

Tiny but Everything You Need

The space is small but it has everything you need (washer, dryer, frig, pool, etc). It’s an excellent location to bars, restaurants, beaches, and shopping. You can walk everywhere and there is a big community pool a block away if the on sight pool is too small. My best friend and I stayed comfortably cool at night in the prime of summer with the a/c.

Best bang for your buck

It’s small, but it has everything you need. Manage expectations. This is a cracker box. But if you plan on staying in your room in Key West other than to shower or sleep, this might not be the place for you. Who wants to stay in their room in Key West though?
