On vacation at the keys and the wifey and I stopped at butterfly world !…read more Absolutely loved the vibes I was able to buy a butterfly to take home and walk thru a beautiful garden filled with butterflies, birds and turtles Price was super cheap to enter the garden and the butterflies you can buy to take home was ehhh on the price but worth it since it goes to the butterflies and animals. Everyone was very nice. Would recommend if you have kids or have a gf like mine who enjoys all type of animals

This was a short but sweet stop in key west. We were looking for something to kill time and this…read morewas a good way to kill 30 minutes or so. They do let you come back all day, we didn't end up doing that but it was a nice option. I was amazed at the number of butterflies in this place! It is a pretty short walk through the inside but it was gorgeous with them flying everywhere. There was lots of information around for you to read up on. It was pretty crowded the day we went but there were a few seats you could stop at. It was pretty expensive but worth doing once.

The Art and Historical Society is housed in a historic buidling that has served a variety of uses in the past - including serving as the island's customs office, a post office, courthouse and the U S Navy. This four-story architectural marvel was built to be a prominent structure near the water in order to collect customs. After the Navy moved out, it was vacant for a number of years until it was acquired by the Art and Historical Society which completed an extensive, multi-year renovation of the building. Seeing the building itself is worth a visit but the museum includes a wealth of art and history of the Key West are that shoudn't be missed. Allow at least 2 hours.

Overall our stay was good and I would recommend staying here if you are in Key West…read more The staff were all friendly and welcoming and assisted in getting us checked in and to our room. Check out was easy and overall each interaction was positive. The room that we stayed in (27) was furnished well, overall clean, and the shower was great. It's obvious that this place has been around a while but equally obvious they try to keep it up. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast the second morning we were there and it was good and certainly an added benefit. We did enjoy the open-air restaurant area. Probably the only downside is the pool. The idea of the pool is great and they do close it before the dinner rush, but you are literally swimming next to the dining tables, which made it less appealing to go in and I ended up not even using it, which was a shame as it's a lovely area. We did enjoy lounging by it a couple of times though.

We got a great front table steps from the stage for $20.00 per person and got harassed the entire time. Some unprovoked light petting was involved. The server was constantly at our table serving us lots of liquor which I recommend highly for this odd experience. FYI: make sure you bring plenty of $1 and $5 bills for tipping the entertainers. If you are not ok with foul language and sexual type dancing do not attend. Fun night and well worth the price.

The cool thing about this museum is that Mel Fisher displays artifacts from two ship wrecks that he…read morediscovered in the keys. There is scuba video of the discoveries that gives the viewer a realistic feel. One discovery, in 1972, was the slave ship Henrietta Marie which sailed in the 1690s and later. In the ship ruins were found several items like shackles and elephant tusks. It wrecked in the western keys. The other discovery was in the 1980s of a Spanish wreck that contained half a billion in gold and silver treasure. Lots of silver coins and gold bars are on display. Both Florida and the Federal Government tried to own the riches but Mel Fisher won in court. The Supreme Court said "finders keepers".

Although a bit overpriced ($17.50 for adults) for the size and scope of this museum, Mel Fisher's Maritime Museum in Key West, Florida is an important stop for those interested in maritime archaeology and shipwrecks. This museum, which opened in 2000 in a historic building, focuses on the artifacts from a few 17th-century shipwrecks, especially on the historic find of the Spanish galleon ship, the Nuestra Senora de Atocha which sunk off the Florida Keys in 1622. The history behind the ship, the wreck, and its discovery are all incredible so do a deep dive on your own. As for the museum part of it, the exhibits are pretty permanent - this isn't the kind of place with rotating exhibits - and they could use a dusting/refresh. The gift shop up front is decent, the staff were nice, and the section that focused on the slave ship, Henrietta Marie was a sobering at the cruel treatment and conditions human beings subjected to other human beings. I had a good visit, spending about an hour here in all, and was pleased to have crossed it off my very long list of museums I want to visit!
