If ever in Key West then the Hemingway House is a must visit…read more Hit up Duval Street for bar hopping, take a pic at the Southernmost Point, take in an amazing Key West sunset, and do a tour of Ernest Hemingway's home. Our tour guide was terrific, very engaging and insightful. Hemingway lived a very interesting life for sure. A literary giant and man of adventure. He had his flaws, but the man lived his life consisting of adventure, drama, love and tragedy. Such highs and lows. Also, we got to see and pet some of the six toed cats which are famous here.

Ernest Hemingway lived an amazing, volatile, yet somewhat tragic life, and the Ernest Hemingway…read moreHome in Key West, FL, does a great job showcasing this unbelievable American writer's story. I highly recommend the tour, which isn't long and takes you to the various rooms of the Florida home, including one room with a great painted portrait of 30-something Hemingway and pictures of all 4 of his wives, another that has photos of his fishing adventures (Hemingway loved to fish and hunt and also had a place in Idaho), a model of his boat which the real one is apparently still docked in Cuba, a picture of him and his friend Fuentes for which he based "The Old Man and the Sea", a second floor room which shows his war escapades, his injuries and nurse girlfriend who partly influenced "A Farewell To Arms". The tour further takes you to his bedroom to view his bed on which the day I visited two of the property's famous 6-toed cats were obliviously napping, the outdoor pool which apparently was the original location of a boxing ring where Hemingway actually boxed anyone willing (and, of course has a history of swaggering stories that were his life). You can also walk up to Hemingway's writing room comprising his table, chair and typewriter where you can imagine him sitting and composing some of his works. After the Hemingway Home, go to the nearby Key West Lighthouse and climb up the spiral staircase for commanding views of the area. The tickets were about $20 for adults.

Ernest Hemingway Home  - Kinda of hard to tell from this pic, but the planter in the middle of the walkway is shaped like a boat.

Wow , lots of things have changed! First, they have barricaded it so that you don't just sit on the…read moreedge of the floor, hanging your feet in the ocean (ofcourse it's dangerous) This popular town square, adjacent to excellent dining and lively bars, is home to one of Key West's longest-running traditions. Perched on the edge of the Gulf of Mexico (or America?), Mallory Square hosts Key West's Sunset Celebration every evening of the year. Same suggestion: Arrive at Mallory Square 2 hours prior to sunset to see the celebration kicking off. Street performers spread themselves out across the square. You'll have the chance to listen to live music, be amazed by magicians and illusionists, or laugh at the antics of clowns. Enjoy an ice cream as you walk around or pick up some local street food from the food carts that occupy part of the square. As the sun gets closer to the horizon, all eyes turn toward the gulf. Position your group in a good spot to see pink and red tones flood the sky as the sun disappears. Take a photo to remember the occasion. Parking: its $6/hr- street or garage, so plan for it, especially on weekends, or you can be late for sunset have

So I normally write long and detailed reviews, but this one will just be a quick one so I can…read morereview my recent vacation while the memories are still fresh! So obviously I am going to give this Key West cultural landmark and plaza 5 stars because IT SHARES MY NAME!! Like many others have said, this is a tourist hot spot with lots of beachy shopping, restaurants, and museums. My dad made sure to take lots of photos of me by my namesake plaza while we visited Key West on family trips back when I was a kid. I wasn't so enthused to pose back then but I am now as an adult!! Mallory isn't a common name so I have a biased opinion of anything or anyone that is named Mallory. I can't wait to come back and get even more time in MY square! :)
