Self catering holidays Florida

A self-catering holiday to Florida can be an amazing experience of exploration and fun. Key West is the furthest of the Keys from the mainland and this popular holiday destination is perched right on the end of the Floridian peninsula. Key West offers a variety of hotels, guesthouses and B&Bs, from which you can explore its historic landmarks, theatres, museums, galleries, pubs, shops,restaurants and, of course, its beaches.

For a tasty meal, we suggest you taste the food in Caretta on the Gulf, located just along the beach in Clearwater. The chef prepares each meal with an infusion of South American, Caribbean and other international inspirations to make a unique dining experience.

While in Florida, you will have many different types of shopping opportunities, whether you’re looking for cheap souvenirs from your trip, designer clothing, jewellery or antiques. In some areas, you’ll find massive indoor malls, containing 50 to 100 shops, plus several large department stores and restaurants. In other areas, you can find outdoor shopping centres and whole streets or regions known for their excellent shopping. The outdoor shopping centres are designed with landscaping and more park-like surroundings and contain dozens of individual shops and restaurants.
