Luxury hotels, hotel suites and fine dining restaurants in Florida

Travel to Florida

With the Gulf of Mexico to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Florida fully deserves its nickname of Sunshine State. The southernmost state of the country is caressed by the sun all year round and seduces travelers with its pristine beaches, its exuberant nature, and its vibrant cities, like Miami, one of the highlights of your trip to Florida. South Beach, the Art Deco district, the chic restaurants of Ocean Drive and the colourful nightlife of Little Havana are just some of the gems the most Hispanic of American cities holds within. From there, you can easily head to the Everglades National Park where you can take a hydrofoil ride through coastal mangroves and grass swamps to spot the area’s alligators. Take the Overseas Highway, one of America's most legendary roads, which winds southward, connecting a string of coral islands with a series of bridges that appear to float on the water. At the end of the road, Key West attracts locals and travels alike, seeking relaxation, as well as diving enthusiasts. Marvel at the hedonistic sunsets of Mallory Square and visit the fascinating Hemingway Home and Museum, where the American literary icon lived during the best years of his career. Your holiday in Florida is also an opportunity to discover Orlando's famous theme parks, such as Disney World and Universal Studios, and to admire the impressive NASA rockets on display at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral. You can also enjoy the warm sand of St. Petersburg and Clearwater beaches in the Tampa Bay area on the Gulf Coast, or St. Augustine, Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach on the Atlantic Coast.
