I must say, the Retreat at Crystal Manatee is one of the most comfortable and accessible lodgings we've found since we started traveling. We literally were two blocks from Kings Bay and only a few more to the Crystal River Historic Shopping District. Plus it had great creature comforts
In addition, the Retreat at...
When it comes to the best Greek food in Florida - you would have to go a bit to top the Krazy Greek. Our first review of the Krazy Greek (now in Winter Haven) was back in 2018. We loved it then and we love it now.
Since that time we have visited a lot...
While checking restaurants in Clermont we came upon the Crooked Spoon. We found it at the intersection of Citrus Tower Boulevard and US Highway 27 in the shadow of the famous Citrus Tower. Actually defined as a "Gastropub," this place is a wonderful dining experience.
A Gastropub
I actually had to look up "gastropub." Apparently it is...

Don't Blink or You'll Miss it
Walking through the vendors down Artisan Alley, we found it at the end of the street. It is a modest...
In the past, we had seen numerous posts about the charming fishing village of Cortez. So when we went to the Gulf coast recently, we decided to make a stop there and have a look around.
According to the latest census, there are fewer than 5,000 people in this sleepy little village. That appears...
The city of Arcadia has positioned itself as center for antiques in Florida. We found a lot of quaint little shops there, but the Bizarre Bazaar is an antique store with an unusual atmosphere. We discovered it on the second floor of the Arcadia Opera house.
Those who follow us know we like the fun and...
This is the start of Tourism Week in Florida. It is also the first time in two months the restaurants have been open for sit down dining. We decided to celebrate both occasions with a trip to Winter Haven to enjoy Bistro Pizza.
We have blogged about this place in the past. It was...
We had the opportunity recently to run up to Lake Mirror Park in Lakeland. Those who follow us know we like to explore - and this became an unexpected adventure. We found Lake Mirror Park was a whole lot more than we had anticipated.
Our main objective had been lunch, but when we got there,...
Mosquito County Tours is a business that is going places. We blogged in the past about Mandy Longo's creation when we first discovered it. Since that time we have tried to make a weekend where we could get together and try a tour for ourselves.
Earlier this month, the Moon was in the Seventh House...
Those who follow us here at Florida Fun Travel know we like wonderful restaurants with fun atmospheres and the Sweet Sage Cafe & Boutique fills the bill. It's located in North Reddington Beach on Florida's west coast. We discovered it on our way to visit John's Pass.
When we first arrived at the Sweet Sage, we...
