Nicknamed the "City of Palms," Fort Myers is located in Southwest Florida.

The Ritz-Carlton Naples hotel is "one of Florida's finest," according to Frommer's. Relax during your vacation with a staff that proudly serves your every whim and need. Enjoy your afternoon playing a few rounds of golf, or tennis. You can rent bikes and go for a nice ride. Relax in the evening in the jacuzzi, then din e in one of the hotel's five restaurants.

If you are looking for a less expensive hotel, try the Palm Terrace Apartments where they offer small apartments. This is perfect for those traveling with families. The really affordable ones are on the ground floor and have sliding glass doors that take you out to a beautiful grassy yard.
