| Staying Green in Bonita Springs |
|
| In Florida, staying green doesn't mean settling for second-best. In fact, many of Florida's most eco-friendly hotels also happen to be the most luxurious, the most beautiful, the most romantic, as well as the most family-friendly in the state. |

| Dive Into Deals and Diversions |
|
| Life along the Emerald Coast revolves around the water. I opt for a lazy day under a big beach umbrella with a good book and daydreaming. Dad digs sand fleas for bait and reels in dinner. The kids build the Starship Enterprise – no simple sandcastles for us. |

| The Grand Experience |
|
| Indeed, I’m far from the first to be impressed with the Grand Bohemian. Travel + Leisure magazine ranked the hotel among the finest 500 properties in the world this year. And its AAA Four Diamond rating makes it the only true luxury property in downtown Orlando.

| Beach Within Reach |
|
| No taller than a palm tree, the Outrigger Beach Resort is one of those barefoot, tiki bar places that has remained a bastion of classic Florida vacationing. It immediately brings back memories of entire days spent in a swimsuit, running wild in the waves and not caring what time it is. |

| Daytona Beach Break |
|
| Today, the three-mile section of beach around the pier has been designated for pedestrians only, and it's still where it's happening on Daytona Beach. The Bandshell and historic clock tower stand in contrast to the beach's hip new scene, a pretty city park has sprung up at the pier's end and monuments and plaques pay tribute to the beach's early racers.

|
| I love a deal of any kind, but here's what I think works about this Endless Summer thing: If it's something you like to do again and again, here's a way to do it cheaper. And if it's something you're trying for the first time, take an affordable test-drive.
