Spring Break will soon be upon us. If you’re traveling to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, having a good time depends on finding comfortable hotel rooms, great restaurants, and fun things to do. Check out these tips so you can get the most out of your spring break experience.
Hotels
Finding the right place to stay while visiting Fort Lauderdale is just as important as the events you’ll be attending or the beach parties you’ll be cutting loose at. After all, if your hotel experience is not up to par, then it’ll be a constant source of anxiety that will take away from everything else.
When looking for a hotel in Fort Lauderdale that will offer the best experience for your spring break adventure, there are a few questions to ask yourself to help find the best room. First, what are you looking to get out of your hotel room? Do you want five-star service, or will any old room with bed work? Second, how much are you willing to spend? There are some amazing hotels down by the beach that offer lots of amenities, but they are not cheap. Third, how close do you want to stay to all the action?
Restaurants
Being a large tourist destination that accommodates hundreds of thousands of tourists a year means having a huge variety of restaurants, food stands, diners, and other places that offer pretty much every type of food from around the world.
Finding a place that serves whatever your favorite type of food might be won’t be hard, but depending on when you plan to go, there could be long lines which can be annoying to wait out, especially when you are hungry. One tip to avoiding long lines is to go out to eat at off times or make reservations if possible. Also, getting food to go instead of dining in can drastically reduce the time it takes to eat.
Another problem is trying to negotiate the sheer number of places to get food. Luckily, there are many online lists from companies that use peer-based review systems to give prospective customers a real sense of what to expect.
Events
At the end of the day, the point of coming down to spring break is hitting up the wild parties, clubs, hotspots, and other events that will be in full swing all week. There are literally hundreds of events happening throughout Fort Lauderdale at this time, so figuring out what you want to do ahead of time is important. Beach lovers will dig all the raucous parties running day and night along the oceanfront. There are also nightclubs with DJs spinning until dawn. Finally, there are tons of small bars, street performers, and themed events that are all a blast.
Hopefully, these tips will help you to have the best time possible while staying in Fort Lauderdale for Spring Break. You can check out this list of places to stay and clubs to hit up while you visit.
