Fort Lauderdale Florida Hotel Picks, Things to Do, & More!!

fort lauderdale florida beach

Heading to Ft Lauderdale? Then let us help you find a Fort Lauderdale Florida hotel, fun things to do, learn about the area, and more?

This page is set up just for that. If you are heading to these beaches on the Atlantic Coast, you have picked a good spot in my opinion.

You will recognize Fort Luaderdale to be the setting for many beach and spring break movies going all the way back to the '60s. Sitting right in between Miami and West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale is a perfect vacation spot.

The clear water of the Atlantic is excellent for snorkeling and various water sports, not to mention the shopping and activities to choose from.

So, we'll take you to Ft Lauderdale beach to find a Fort Lauderdale Florida hotel, show you a few of the highly recommended attractions, and search for the best places to eat in the area. Ready? Let's go...

Fort Lauderdale Florida Hotel Reccomendations


We have visited Ft Lauderdale a few times and these hotels are always the ones travelers say to look into for your stay. These are a wide variety based on price, location, but always top choices one way or another. At the bottom of the page you'll find a link to do more research on each of these hotels.

Here is our list of Fort Lauderdale Florida hotel spots...
  • Best Western Pelican Beach Resort
  • Ask Me Inn- Great Value
  • Lago Mar Resort - Rooms for any budget
  • Ft Lauderdale Grande & Yacht Club
  • Harbor Beach Marriott- Super nice if you can handle the price tag
  • Also, look into the Flamingo Inn or Tropi Rock if the above don't suit your needs
Remember, you don't only need to choose a Fort Lauderdale Florida hotel. If the hotels aren't to your liking try a vacation rental by owner, condo, or home.

Ft Lauderdale Beach Attractions


You have found your Fort Lauderdale Florida hotel and are set up on airfare & car rental. Now it's time to learn about the fun things to do and places to eat in the area.

Ft Lauderdale beach has an array of fun, adventure, people, and shopping. You won't be bored here. In fact, when my wife and I visited both Miami and West Palm, we ventured to Ft Lauderdale for a day or two to people watch, sit on the beaches, eat on one of the balconies overlooking the Atlantic, and shop. It was well worth the drive.

The things that you must do while in Fort Lauderdale Florida include, Las Olas Riverfront & Boulevard for walking, shopping, food, attractions, and more. Our two favorite tours that you might want to look into are the Water Taxi & Jungle Queen. They may be crowded so pick proper times. The views are excellent and you'll have a nice time.

If you are a water nut, then you'll love the beaches, snorkeling, parasailing, and other sports that you will be sure to see and take part in. I believe there was a vendor selling time on every corner.

For you ladies, shopping is a must. There is no shortage of small shops and a wide variety of fun beach and clothing spots to check out- watch those credit cards guys!!

There are a plethera of museums and tours to take part in if you choose. If you are there to relax, then do so, but these are a few things to do that we know you will enjoy.

Also, be sure you rent a convertible for a day and cruise down to Miami or up to West Palm along the A1A highway!
