Hollywood, Florida Hotel for Beachfront Holiday Getaways

Hollywood, Florida

Jump back to the beginning of our blasphemous “holidays on the beach” series here.

At this point, we’ve given the West Coast its fair share of the spotlight, and it seems only appropriate that the East Coast should have its day in the warm tropical sun. The eastern seaboard is certainly home to dozens of fantastic beaches, even as far up as Maine if you can believe it, but this being a wintertime feature, we’ll stick to the far southeast, i.e. Florida.

Even without the glitz and glamour of LA’s most famous neighborhood, the name “Hollywood” would still be a staple of American travel thanks to the waterfront paradise of Hollywood, Florida. This fanciful destination, a suburb of Fort Lauderdale, is cut between the beachfront and a tranquil intracoastal waterway, creating some breathtaking views virtually anywhere you stay.

If beach lounging is your thing, you’ll find plenty to enjoy in Hollywood, but in truth this is such a dynamic destination it would be a shame not to get some more out of it. Local cuisine is a spicy, flavorful gestalt of Caribbean, Asian, South American and American influences, something that can be enjoyed in both the finest restaurant and the humblest beachside stand.

For the truly adventurous, rent a boat for Christmas day and open presents out in the ocean. Believe me, you won’t be the only one.

Our favorite Hollywood Beach, Florida hotel is the Crowne Plaza Hollywood Beach. Luxurious accommodations and a beach right across the street tend to win us over :)
