Where to stay in Fort Lauderdale & Wilton Manors
Fort Lauderdale has more men's guesthouses than anywhere else in the US. Most sit in Victoria Park or near Sebastian Street Beach, with Wilton Manors' bars a short ride away. Winter and spring are peak season; summer is quieter and cheaper.
The Big Coconut Guesthouse
NE 13th Avenue, between the beach and Wilton Manors
A friendly two-storey guesthouse set around a garden courtyard and heated pool, with continental breakfast and a weekend happy hour where guests get to know each other. It's a good-value pick for anyone who wants an easy, sociable base rather than a polished hotel.
