Destination Resort Areas
Some shining examples of real destination resorts are The Florida Keys, particularly Key West, Nassau and ski vacation locales such as Telluride and Aspen. What makes the Florida Keys a premier resort location is the fact that it offers vacationers a year round destination. While it’s true that Nassau, like Key West are cruise destinations, Key West and to a lesser extent, the rest of the Keys have incredible vacation attractions year round. This is the key advantage that Florida Keys resort properties enjoy over ski resort properties in Colorado, California or Utah. The winter vacation season in Florida starts in late January and ends sometime in April. Beginning in June, the summer season kicks in until Labor Day. However, if you walked on the streets of Key West during the “off seasons” you couldn’t fail to notice tourists taking snapshots, fishing off the pier or enjoying the sights and sounds of old Key West. Cruise ships typically make port year round in Key West, probably to a greater extent than even in Nassau.Florida Keys Real Estate is simply the best.
