Beachside Resort Celebrates Hemingway in Key West
 Crystal blue waters, sunny skies and Key West’s unique carefree spirit are some of the elements that inspired Ernest Hemingway to make the island his home for more than ten years. At his famous house on Whitehead Street, he wrote some of his most successful and popular stories including “Green Hills of Africa,” “Death in the Afternoon” and “To Have and Have Not.” He also finished “A Farewell to Arms” and started “For Whom the Bell Tolls.”
Beachside Resort & Conference Center celebrates the 109th birthday of the author (July 21, 1899) with a special package for fans and visitors who want to experience Key West a la Hemingway.
Hemingway Days Package - Available July 15-20, 2008
Includes:
- Standard Room
- Two tickets to Hemingway Museum
- $20 gift certificate to Sloppy Joe’s, Hemingway’s favorite hang out!
$229 per day (Taxes not included. Some restrictions may apply.)
The timing of Beachside’s package also coincides with Sloppy Joe’s annual “Hemingway Look-Alike Contest” (July 17 – 20) when hundreds of participants from all over the world converge on the legendary bar for three days of Hemingway-themed high-jinks. This marks the contest’s 28th year of friendly competition.
