Pet-friendly Florida resorts

Resorts in Florida FAQ

Florida offers a wide variety of resort experiences to match every type of traveler. You'll find beachfront resorts, family-friendly resorts with pools and activity centers, luxury golf and spa resorts, all-inclusive retreats, and condo-style resorts perfect for extended stays.

Many Florida resorts, especially those along the Gulf Coast, Atlantic Coast, and in the Florida Keys, offer direct beach access. These beachfront resorts typically provide boardwalks, lounge areas, outdoor showers, and sometimes private beach sections exclusively for guests. However, inland or theme parks–adjacent resorts may not be located near the beach, so it’s always a good idea to check the location before booking.

Some Florida resorts do allow pets, but policies vary. Many resort-style condos and vacation rentals permit dogs in select units, often with breed or size restrictions and an additional pet fee. However, larger resorts or high-rise complexes may have strict no-pet HOA rules. Always check the resort’s pet policy before booking, and look for listings that are labeled “pet-friendly.”

Yes! Resort rentals typically include condo-style accommodations or vacation homes within a resort community. These often provide full kitchens, multiple bedrooms, and living spaces, which make them ideal for families and longer stays. Resort rentals also frequently offer access to pools, beaches, fitness centers, and other shared amenities while giving you more space and privacy. Hotels, on the other hand, are usually single-room accommodations with daily housekeeping and fewer in-room amenities.

Definitely! Many Florida resorts are designed to accommodate families, groups, and reunions. You’ll find multi-bedroom condos, adjoining units, or large vacation homes within resort communities that make traveling with groups easy. Some resorts even offer group booking options or event spaces for weddings, corporate retreats, or celebrations. It’s best to book early for larger groups, especially during holidays and peak travel seasons.
