Ernest Hemingway's Cuban home for many years, and now a dedicated museum to the iconic writer. The home has been kept in pristine shape - like Hemingway left it, a tour guide told me. The grounds are beautiful as well.

This place is great to see for any Hemingway fan. Altho you can't walk around inside, the doors and windows are all open, and staff will even take pictures for you. While i get some people do not like this, i really respect their attempt to kerp the home just as Hemingway left it. It also preserves the beautiful hand oainted tiling. Many people are also not aware the small round ceramic bull art piece is an original Picasso, given to Hemingway by the artist.

It gave you a good idea of Ernest Hemingway's personal life and an insight into how he wrote his books, and nice to see his house intact with beautiful furniture in which has been preserved really well, including an original Picasso. There's more to it than you think because there's his boat within the grounds, and a swimming pool where Ava Gardner allegedly swam without any clothes! It's in a beautiful place but out of the way from Havana (half an hour drive), and there's no transport links we are aware of, so you'll have to get a guide to take you. Even though you can't walk around inside the house itself, you can peer through the open windows, and see all of the rooms quite clearly, including the Picasso which will undoubtedly be pointed out to you. I'd give it 9 out of 10.

Excellent historical house where Ernest Hemingway lived for many years! See his boat, bedroom, living room, tower equipped with spyglass to watch Eva Gardner while she swam naked in the pool see it all, and hear the stories of his life in Cuba.

Beautifully maintained piece of history. You cannot go inside, but you are able to see most of the restored areas from the windows. Make sure you go up the tower if you're able.

Really enjoyed seeing the villa Hemingway had just outside La Habana. Bring enough time to soak in the atmosphere! Even though you can only see through the windows (or exactly because of that?), you get a good sense of what it might have been like for Hemingway and his visitors.

Well preserved home where Hemingway lived while in Cuba. They did a nice job curating the home. Well appointed grounds with great views.

This is a must visit for Hemingway fans. The house is pretty much as he left it and there is plenty to see even though access into the house is not permitted. The guided tour is worth taking.

If you like Hemingway, visit this place. The whole facility is super clean. And they have fantastic adult beverages to make the trip very authentic. Kind of interesting to imagine the books being written here.

Excellent and beautifully kept. Gets a little busy during the main season when tourists show up by the busload, but the grounds and house itself are magnificent. The house offers a literal glimpse into the life of one of the great writers of the 20th century as you peek in through the open windows and doors (weather permitting!). The many artifacts, books and trophies in the house make you feel as if you happened to swing by the house looking if anybody is home and expected him back anytime. The house provides an insight into a fascinating life and many little details, including the pet cemetery in the back and handwritten notations above the toilet bowl, chronicling the author's weight over the years.

Well worth the visit because it has been fully restored. Although you can't physically enter the house and its many rooms, you can view the interior through large doorways and windows and get a feel for what Ernest Hemingway must have experienced while he was living there. There are plenty of bookshelves in several rooms and wall hangings that showed his love of hunting wild animals and his observation tower which gave him a more or less clear view of the city of Havana in the distance. A large Olympic-sized pool and a display of his wooden fishing boat are on the grounds.
