5.0 out of 5 stars Frommer's Florida helped me immensely!, October 31, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Frommer's Florida 2003 (Paperback)

I just want to give kudos to this book, because it was really, really wonderful on my most recent trip to Florida. I've used other guides in the past (Lonely Planet, etc.), but they seem to be more suited for very exotic locales instead of Florida. For that, Frommer's is the best. They have incredibly accurate information (prices, hours, directions, etc.) and give honest reviews for hotels, restaurants, and attractions that I really appreciate, like "this is the definition of a tourist trap," etc. I was surprised and pleased with this guide, and I'd recommend it in a heartbeat to anyone else who's going down there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tourist or Florida resident: there's something for everyone, June 6, 2005

By	Manny Hernandez "Author of Ning For Dummies" (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Frommer's ® Florida 2005 (Frommer's Complete) (Paperback)

This is another great Frommer's guide. We've read the one on Arizona (where we used to live before), as well as the one on the Carolinas and Georgia prior to this one, and all have been equally useful and detailed. If you want highlights, you got them: best beaches, best golf courses, best resorts, etc. If you want detail, you can go into as much of it as you care for.

We live in Central Florida, and it's been extremely useful to help us plan one-day outings as well as longer vacations. It will help you learn about the lesser known locations as well as give you details and tips you didn't know about the popular ones. It truly is a helpful guide equally for tourists or Florida residents.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Florida Beach Guide and maps, December 15, 2004

By	G. Voevodsky "waves_dvds" (Portola Valley, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Frommer's Florida 2004 (Paperback)

Having just completed our new DVD, here on Amazon, "The Best Florida Beaches" I can tell you I used this book extensively throughout our 21 day shoot driving around all of Florida shooting its beautiful beaches. The book has a great list and acurate descriptions of Florida's beaches, the detailed maps are also very helpful.

The book is nicely written, giving you things to see, do and stay. However, they do not include any pictures?! So, if you want to see and hear what Florida Beaches really look like, check out our DVD as well as this great book.
