This postcard was printed during the 1930s and shows the grounds of the Casa Marina Hotel in Key West, Florida, highlighting its oceanfront setting near the southernmost point of the United States.
The Casa Marina Hotel, opened in the 1920s as part of Florida’s resort expansion, became one of the most prominent luxury destinations in Key West. Developed in connection with the Florida East Coast Railway, the property represented an effort to position the island as a winter resort destination. Its landscaped grounds and waterfront access were central features, designed to showcase both leisure amenities and the natural coastal environment.
The image features a broad lawn with pathways, plantings, and small garden elements leading toward the shoreline, with the ocean visible to the left and hotel buildings extending into the distance. The composition presents a wide, open view with architectural elements framing the right side. Printed caption text along the lower edge identifies the location and viewpoint, emphasizing its proximity to the southernmost point. The reverse shows a standard postcard back format and remains unposted.
