Opened just a few months, this restaurant, bar and rooftop invites guests to taste fresh seafood, small plates and elevated cocktails by the ocean. Choose to sit in the dining room or opt to head to the rooftop for exceptional views.
Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort and Spa recently opened the brand-new Cabana Beach Club. The club offers access to 26 miles of beaches, as well as watersports, a junior Olympic pool and three distinct eateries.
This highly anticipated hotel brings Florida Vernacular architecture together with Art Deco flair. With 120 guestrooms and a second-floor pool, guests are spoiled with both modern amenities and proximity to Vilano beach. The hotel’s on-site Pesca Vilano lets guests indulge in Latin dishes mixed with coastal influences, while the rooftop features a curated menu and crafted cocktails with views of St. Augustine and the Atlantic.
