Destin Beach Resort Henderson
Henderson Beach Resort Destin
If a private beach and old world charm appeals to you then choose The Henderson Beach Resort in Destin.

The rooms are clean and spacious and you can park in a covered garage (for a fee). Pools are heated (perfect for cool winter days). Multiple restaurants make dining easy. You can book a hotel room or complete condo depending on the size of your group. The private beach is a bit of a walk so be prepared if you have children carrying toys.

Ritz-Carlton Amelia Island
Pool Amelia Island Ritz-Carlton
Amelia Island Ritz-Carlton
Located on secluded Amelia island, this oceanfront resort is very luxurious. Golf, a spa, indoor and outdoor pools are some of the amenities this resort offers. First class food and service are what the resort is known for and visitor reviews reflect this. Visiting north Florida in the winter months is very special. The weather is warm during the day and cool at night. Perhaps not the first choice for people wanting a hot, Caribbean climate vacation, it nonetheless is a relaxing, high-end experience. If you visit in January, you can take part in the annual restaurant week (January 20-29, 2023). This culinary showcase features the island’s most popular dining spots with something for every taste.

Postcard Inn Islamorada Florida Keys
Postcard Inn Islamorada
Postcard Inn Beach Resort
​Postcard Inn Beach Resort & Marina is just minutes from Key Largo and not far from Marathon. It embodies the true Florida Keys spirit of relaxation and all-day fun. Rooms and cottages have balconies, coffee makers, min-fridge, wi-fi and more. Tuscan food, Starbucks coffee, raw bar and a Tiki bar are some of the dining options offered. This little resort has its own private beach and two pools, open 7am–10pm year-round. They often have vacation specials and resort credits. We can't wait to go back to the Postcard Inn! Click here for more information. If you have a lower budget, check out the Hampton Inn Key Largo which has its own private beach. More pictures here.
Southernmost House Key West
Key West Southernmost House
Key West Southernmost House
A Key West hotel that offers breakfast for a low resort fee? Yes! The Southernmost House is not only famous but offers oceanfront rooms in the traditional Florida style. Island style is front and center at this one-of-a-kind location in Key West. This historic mansion has hosted 5 United States Presidents and celebrities. On the quiet end of Duval Street, this clean and private residence turned resort hotel is a gem for any Florida Keys visitor. The only downside may be the lack of a real beach. There’s a public beach adjacent to the hotel, but it’s public and can get busy. If exploring Key West is more important than a beach vacation, then this hotel might be just right. It's hard to find a good beach in the Florida Keys due to mangroves and seaweed. The hotel does offer beautiful ocean views and sunsets. Learn more about Southernmost House by clicking here.
The Roth Hotel Treasure Island FL

The Roth Hotel
Treasure Island is a short drive from St. Pete Beach. It's easy to rent a car after flying into Tampa. The white sand beaches on the Gulf of Mexico are hard to beat. Unique and full of unique hotels and restaurants, it has plenty to do for families, small groups and couples. We chose The Roth Hotel, a family owned and operated that feels like your own island home. The beautiful accommodations include water views. Dolphins are known to visit the hotel dock regularly. Sit outside, enjoy some fine wine and watch the boats sail by. The hotel owners will help you find cruise tours, snorkeling, and watersports. Cross the street and enjoy Sunset Beach with crystal clear water and fine, white sand. Just thinking about it is so relaxing! Click here to find out more about The Roth Hotel.
