The Sunshine State has more beach area than any other state. And each of the 12 coasts of Florida has it's own designation. We have compiled a dozen different named locales, although it appears there might even be more. Starting in Pensacola and ending up in Jacksonville there's some 1,350 miles of beach from the Gulf to...
In Fort Myers, The Love Boat is a quick way of taking a cruise back in time to an old fashioned ice cream shop. We had seen this place on TripAdvisor and had wanted to stop during several visits to the area. However, we just did not have the opportunity.
For a while, The Love...
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...
So we were traveling the Treasure Coast and looking for a place to have dinner. That's when we found Taste in Hobe Sound while perusing TripAdvisor. They list themselves as casual dining, but they are so much more.
It took us a while to find the place at the intersection of Bridge Road and A1A...
 During the winter months, a trip to Siesta Key can be a bit of a pricey affair. But in the off season, it can be a nice little trip. Especially if you don't mind being back from the beach a bit and traveling in for your Gulf Experience.
Unless you have booked a beachside resort, condo or hotel room,...
When in search of a sweet place to shop and dine in Florida, Historic Cocoa Village is as good as any we have visited. To date, our stops have included historic downtown areas in the Sunshine State such as Melbourne, Bartow and Englewood. Each is wonderful in its own special way.
Located along...
Over our last few visits, we have found there are lots of things to do in Vero Beach. So, recently we decided to return. After no small amount of research, we decided again to stay at the Prestige Hotel. Although their ocean view rooms were a bit past our pricepoint, we were able to get a room...
When it comes to a good breakfast in Vero Beach, Mrs. Mac's Fillin' Station is difficult to beat. We had our first exposure to Mrs Mac's during our initial Vero Beach getaway. but we didn't actually eat there. Instead, because restaurants had been shut down due to the Coronavirus situation, we had a to-go meal.

We recently stayed again at the Edison Beach House in Fort Myers Beach. It was of little surprise when we looked at our Twitter feed, and saw that they had been selected as a Top 10 Florida business. The designation came from "Florida's Top Recommended."
From restaurants to hotels and even real estate agents, their...
Those who follow us know we love the fun and funky. And The Bubble Room fits that bill to a "T." It's has both the quirky atmosphere we love and the food's not bad either. Our first experience was on our initial trip to Sanibel.
Recently we had the opportunity to return and show...
