Cheap Beach Vacations, Ideas and Tips for You!

Awesome cheap beach vacations are possible! With some planning and a little creativity, you can save money on your next Florida beach vacation. Consider some of these ideas:

Book During Shoulder Season, Spring and Fall:
Kids are in school and most “snowbirds” are back up north. You’ll find better rates at hotels, resorts and cottage rentals and enjoy fewer crowds.

BYOF (bring your own food): This is a big money saver!
There are lots of beach hotels in Florida that have refrigerators, microwaves, full kitchens and even BBQ Grills. Take foods for snacking, breakfast and/or lunch, then go out for dinner. We always bring lots of water and drinks. Not only is it cheaper, but it’s easier to grab a drink and go…to the beach that is!

TIP- Many hotels like Holiday Inn Express – Click Here
offer free breakfasts…if so, then you can leave the cereal at home!

TIP: If you want to go out to eat, you can save money like my husband and I do.

Cheap Vacation Packages- Combining hotel and airfare can often get you better rates than booking these separately. Car rentals and tours can also be included. Finding great Florida vacation packages can save you tons of money!

Go Camping or Rent a Cabin:
Enjoy the beauty and nature of our National Parks in Florida and Florida State Parks! Bring your tent, RV or rent a cabin and…

Camp right on the beach at Bahia Honda State Park in the Keys, soak up the beauty of Grayton Beach State Park in Santa Rosa, and more. Cheap Florida vacations don’t get any better than this!
