Getaway to Florida before the Snow Hits - A Message to the Northeast United States.

Ok, maybe the title to this blog post is not fair, but if you have the means and money heading to Florida, and doing it soon is the right move. Travel Ape sure is doing it. On Monday morning Travel Ape will be heading to the West Coast of Florida to visit places like Naples, Fort Myers Beach, Bonita Springs, Marco Island and other great places along the coast.

If you haven't heard, the Northeast is about to be socked with some dreary weather adding to it possible snow fall. It is fortuitous though, because Travel Ape hadn't planned on leaving on a whim, he had his trip booked for over a month now. It just looks like genius.

To that end here are some cool places that Travel Ape plans on visitng while on the Gulf Coast of Florida.


First to Naples Florida. Of course we have to give out the gratuitous pointers to Naples Hotels and one Featured hotel in Naples, Florida being the Quality Inn and Sainte Golf Resort located at 4100 Golden Gate Parkway. To that end while in Naples Travel Ape will definitely be making his way to the famed Fifth Avenue Block of Naples. This really is a wonderful place that he's dubbed the mini-rodeo drive of the Gulf Coast. You'll find hip places to drink plus any number of great restaurants. From European style dining to eclectic fare you'll find it on Fifth Avenue.


Next to Fort Myers Beach, where again, we'll offer some Fort Myers Hotels suggestions and this one featured Fort Myers hotel, the Hyatt Coconut Plantation Fort Myers Hotel located at 1800 Coconut Plantation Drive, which is actually in Bonita Springs, but if you know the area they are right near each other. Now when Travel Ape heads to Fort Myers he loves to go to this little out of the way place called Junkanoo on the Beach Bar and Restaurant. If you look at the link provided you'll see that this place has what Florida is all about. An open bar to the beach and some of the best sites you'll see. You'll think you're in heaven.


If you don't have the time, money or resources to get to Florida, that's ok. Travel Ape will have plenty to tell you about so you can plan very soon to get down there.
