Excursions :
--Massage at Wyndham $50 (stop at concierge and ask for $20 coupon toward spa. Take advantage of relaxation room and sauna. If you keep receipt you can use resort all day... pools, beach, etc. We found this resort had a lot of kids in the pool so we went back to shepherd's).
--Scoot Coup rides ($56 per person for 2 to a coup for 4 hours. Drove them all over down to Madeira beach and spent time at beach, hit a cool local bar called SKREWIES on the way back, had a blast!!!)
--Dinner reso at SEA GUINI (a 0.6 mile stroll from resort, went at sunset and the views were breathtaking. Menu amazing. Cocktails awesome)
--Local workout - PRIME8 Fitness. Loved jt!!!! Fitness instructor from nashville and I love trying local gyms. Usually I find them a little easy or less challenging. But this one was AMAZING. Super Hard and awesome. Parish is owmer/instructor. Classes were only $10. Worth the 15 min lyft to sweat out a lire booze and feel fit for the weekend.
Here's a tip. We each packed a bottle or two to make drinks in the room. Stopped at grocery to buy mixers and s
Snacks for room. You can rent a cabana for the cost of ONE bottle of booze (we chose titos for $135) but that gets you the cabana THE WHOLE DAY. It's worth the cost as ordering drinks individually would have added up quick. Then you can supplement more of your own booze throughout the day. Tabitha was an awesome caveman cocktail waitress. The live band at night was over the top! Oir legs hurt from dancing and I lost my voice singing. Food was good. Flights to tampa on southwest are affordable and a Lyft to resort was $40. All in all a super affordable over the top getaway.
*there is an incredible little POKE place right down the road in walking distance too! Great for cheap amazing lunch.
*if you make it to the pier, frenchys rockaway is amazing. Get the king platter with all the seafood and share. And an 1800 coconut frozen mixer.
There are a ton of other things you can do. Rent a boat, book a captained boat, parasailing, jet ski, etc... we just loved having a fun pool and beach and spending time together.
