Florida, famously touted as USA’s Sunshine State, boasts beaches, unique theme parks, and a bustling culinary and nightlife scene. While the state has lots to offer, Florida’s sprawling coastline and beaches make up its biggest attraction. Sun seekers flock to destinations such as Daytona Beach, Indian River Shores, Miami Beach, Indian Rocks Beach, Shell Point Beach, Wakulla County, and Fort Walton Beach, to soak in the glorious sunshine and enjoy outdoor activities. Alternatively, you can drive down the southern tip of mainland Florida to the string of islands collectively known as the Florida Keys. Book an accommodation right at the beach, and you can have your fill of the sun, sand, and water at any destination. Check out the top beach house rentals in Florida, USA, listed below for great stays.
