Jacksonville Top 10 | Family Travel, Jacksonville, Florida
If your travels find you on the sunny First Coast with your family, take it from me (the expert), where you should stay, play, and eat. How am I the expert you might ask? Well, in addition to living in the region for almost 30 years, I've also covered the city extensively for 10Best.com as their city expert, created countless segments for local TV, ran my own TV show highlighting the region, and written many freelance articles about everything North Florida related. I've covered many local destinations on my blog, but this is my first time rounding up all my favorites. So take it from me, this is the list you can't miss.Â
Being a local, I can't claim to have stayed at every hotel in and surrounding Jacksonville, but I have had the pleasure of a few staycations. If I haven't stayed, I have probably toured many of the hotels you have to choose from when planning your stay. When it comes to family travel, certain luxuries can make a world of difference. The resorts who rate at the top of my list? One Ocean Resort and Spa (in Atlantic Beach), The Ritz-Carlton (Amelia Island), Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort and Spa, and Omni Amelia Island Plantation. Follow the links for more in depth reviews, or take my word for it and know that these world class destinations know what families need and how to serve them. From expansive pool decks, educational kids clubs, and Pirate tuck-ins, your stay at these resorts will be as memorable as any attraction you will visit during your trip. In fact, you may not even want to leave the grounds. But if you do, read on for where to go and what to eat. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
