What people say

Amanda Dishman
"The Hemingway House (museum) is famous for not only the award winning author Ernest Hemingway but for 6 toed cats. Hemingway has achieved the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the Nobel Prize in Literature. They have a guided tour that lasts around 30 minutes through the house. You are free to walk around the house grounds and explore the garden and tropical flowers on the property. This was the most exciting experience for the girls because they got to pet the cats with 6 toes. The staff says there are around 60 cats on the property. This was an awesome place to explore and experience because of the rich history of the island and the impact Hemingway has left on American literature. "
