Take a Celebration Vacation

You never need an excuse to travel, but if it helps seal the deal, why not make it a celebration vacation? You can always come up with a special occasion, whether it’s a milestone birthday, a significant anniversary or a retirement party. A babymoon is a perfect time to take a trip to Fort Myers in anticipation of the next generation being born. Best of all, anyone can celebrate in this Southwest Florida destination, whether you’re going solo, as a couple or with your best friends.

Whether you’re seeking a touch of romance or a festive atmosphere for the whole family, you’ll have plenty of choices in your accommodations. For example, you can lean into the modern ambience of Luminary Hotel & Co., Autograph Collection, in downtown Fort Myers, where riverfront rooms, inspired cuisine and creative gathering spaces are perfect for special events of all sizes. Marriott Sanibel Harbour Resort & Spa has all the amenities for a joyful island getaway as you explore the 85-acre property, paddle through the water and treat yourselves to a day at the spa. From boutique hotels to grand resorts, a concierge on staff will be more than happy to arrange extra-special touches like a bottle of champagne or a bouquet of flowers.

Naturally, a fantastic waterfront meal transforms any event into something special. A most memorable day might involve boating across the bay and settling in under the sunshine for a casual seafood feast accompanied by live music. Or it might be an elegant alfresco dinner followed by an overnight stay in a historic lodge or waterfront cottage. Discover where you can sail to your next meal and experience a taste of the Old Florida lifestyle.

Meaningful outings are the keys to creating indelible memories. Take the whole crew on a bird-watching excursion to see which migratory birds come swooping into view. Explore downtown Fort Myers to see how many artistic murals you can spot in one stroll. Meet locals on an impromptu trip to a food truck park, and raise a glass to any occasion in a craft brewery. With the ideal combination of outdoor adventures, arts and culture, and diverse dining, Fort Myers will always be a trip to remember.
