The best available hotels & places to stay near Florida

June 22, 2022 Vergie Nakamoto

Not just for retirees and theme park enthusiasts, the Sunshine State offers beautiful beaches, pristine diving conditions, and sizzling nightlife. Salsa the night away in a smokin’ hot Miami club, or swing away at one of Kissimmee’s many premium golf courses. An airboat tour of the Everglades is an unforgettable adventure – just look out for alligators! For the risk-averse, a lazy day spent on the soft sands of an Emerald Coast beach is as rejuvenating as a spa treatment.

Havana Cabana at Key West

The brand new Havana Cabana Key West sits waterfront in Key West, a destination steeped with charm and character. Taking nostalgic influences from the art and culture of our neighbors in Cuba, the Cabana is a lush escape from reality. Mid-century cars greet resort guests as they arrive, birds of paradise punctuate the outdoor landscape, and the sweet sound of Flamenco guitar can be heard poolside. Relax and unwind with a midday mojito or explore the town on a bicycle or vintage Vespa, as you indulge in the marriage of old Havana's soul and the playful nature of our island setting.

Fantastic Drivers

Reviewed By tiffanymP5227LU

Amazing driver Val was awesome. The trip to and from the hotel were fun and story filled. Great tips about places to eat and where you can see the great sunsets and seafood restaurants. The hotel staff was awesome but our driver Val was the best. We love key west every year we come. 2021-2021.

Bang average at best

Reviewed By OttawaGiGi

I’m writing this review while on the impossibly slow internet in the room. It’s slow season and we requested a room in a quiet area of the hotel, first we got a room next to a construction site. When we moved we got a room next to a group of guys who were partying in the hall till 1:45am. The boxed water they promote on their website is not available, only plastic bottles. The cherry on top was the alarm clock in the room being set to 6am in both ours and the adjoining rooms. The location is fantastic but the service is below par. I’m here for 2 more nights, wish me luck.

Postcard Inn

Postcard Inn on the Beach is in the business of happy memories. The days when road trips ruled and beach vacations were a treasured ritual are still in style here. Enormous pool, games, and lively common areas for chilling, chatting and sipping a cocktail. Our retro-chic design is a bit quirky, a tad witty, and always colorful. A friendly vibe infuses the whole place.

Steven was awesome at PCI!

Reviewed By SydneyL0321

Steven at PCI was a complete delight. My trip was split between work and pleasure so with that I had to take care of business while away from the office. He assisted me from everything when it came to printing off docs to help accommodate anything we needed in regards to parking and our rooms. Always a professional attitude with an upbeat spirit. Thanks to Steven for helping us navigate all our questions and fulfill our request during our stay!

Bad Customer Service

Reviewed By Keith20202020

Seems like a great place to stay, although we missed our trip due to the tropical storm and cancelled flight. Lost our bags, got stranded at the airport and couldn't get to the hotel. They refuse to credit any of the stay since we "didn't call in time". I won't be trying to stay there again due to the lack of customer service/compassion and having paid for a service we never received that was out of our control.

Great hotel with great shuttle service!

Reviewed By lercal

Hotel is nice and clean. The staff is super friendly and the shuttle drivers are fabulous. Ryan was our shuttle driver twice - he was great! This is hotel is not in the main Duval Street area but that was a plus for us as it was nice to be away from the noise and action but have the shuttle services to get there and back.
