The Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum is a fascinating destination that offers visitors a glimpse into the life of the famed American author. Nestled in the heart of Key West, the museum showcases Hemingway's personal belongings, manuscripts, and the lush gardens that inspired some of his greatest works. The house itself, which once served as Hemingway's residence from 1931 to 1939, is a beautiful example of Spanish Colonial architecture and features a unique swimming pool, a rarity for its time.
