During your Jacksonville vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Ritz Theatre & LaVilla Museum
From 1921 to 1971, the Ritz Theatre was the center of cultural life in LaVilla, an African-American neighborhood so vibrant that it was known as the Harlem of the South. Many entertainers played the Ritz before moving on to the Apollo Theater in the real Harlem. Most of LaVilla's small, clapboard "shotgun" houses (so called because you could fire a shotgun through the central hallway to the back room and not hit anything) have been torn down in anticipation of urban renewal, but the Ritz has been rebuilt and is once again a center of the city's cultural life. Only the northwest corner of the building, including the Ritz sign, is original, but the new 426-seat theater captures the spirit of vaudevillian times. Off the lobby, LaVilla Museum recounts local African-American history and exhibits the works of black artists.

Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens
Built on the grounds of a private Tudor mansion, this modestly sized but impressive museum is worth a visit for anyone who appreciates the visual arts. The permanent collection encompasses works from 2000 B.C. to the present. It's especially rich in American Impressionist paintings, 18th-century porcelain, and 18th-century Japanese woodblock prints. Personally, I find the art here a bit boring and too focused on landscapes, but that's my taste. Frankly -- and art snobs may gasp at this statement -- the actual landscaping of the museum is infinitely more spectacular. Don't miss the stunning Italian and English gardens set on the scenic St. Johns River. The museum hosts temporary and traveling exhibits and sponsors a multitude of activities during the year, so call ahead to see what's happening.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Jacksonville area, including:

Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront
Set on the Southbank Riverwalk, this 10-story tower is famous for its Elvis Presley Suite, where the King purportedly stayed half a dozen times between 1955 and 1976 when this establishment was known as the Jacksonville Hotel. Funny, but it still looks as if it's steeped in the 1970s. People don't seem to mind, though. If you can afford its $300-a-night price tag, you will see some of Elvis's million-seller gold records mounted on the walls -- and then you can watch his movies on one of the suite's two VCRs. It and the other units have dark-wood furniture and smallish marble bathrooms. Riverfront rooms have balconies (those on the west end catch traffic noise from the Main St. Bridge). A branch of Ruth's Chris Steak House offers extraordinarily tender beef.

Omni Jacksonville Hotel
Located directly across the street from the Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts and a block west of Jacksonville Landing, the Omni enjoys a more convenient location than the Hilton across the river. It caters primarily to a corporate clientele that fills the meeting facilities during the week. Most rooms are of moderate size, with the pick of the litter being the Florida suites, which have sitting areas with river or city views. The pool is on the rooftop overlooking the river. Reasonably priced Juliette's Restaurant & Bistro provides a locally famous pasta bar.

The Lodge & Club at Ponte Vedra Beach
Hello, gorgeous! One of Florida's more romantic hotels, this long, two-story, Mediterranean-style building sits along the beach, affording every unit an ocean view from a private balcony or patio. The recipients of a recent $4.5-million renovation, all 66 rooms have been fully refurbished and are the epitome of high-end luxury, with gorgeous artwork, two-person settees recessed in front of windows looking onto the beach, and huge bathrooms with two-person tubs and separate showers. The "preferred" rooms and all of the suites also have gas fireplaces; ceiling fans hang from vaulted ceilings in the upstairs units. The suites come with sleeper sofas and kitchenettes, making them suitable for small families; some have marble-faced fireplaces and French doors as well. Down by the beach, one pool with a hot tub is reserved for couples. Guests here have access to all the facilities at Ponte Vedra Inn & Club , including the spa, the tennis center, and two golf courses. Restricted to guests of the two properties, the bright Innlet Dining Room serves fine Continental cuisine with an ocean view, plus afternoon tea daily in the adjoining lounge, where a pianist performs by the fireplace at night. The poolside Oasis Bar & Grill is open daily in summer and on weekends the rest of the year. Note: There is a nightly gratuity charge of $12 per double room for the bellman, doorman, chambermaid, and valet-parking staff, so don't double tip.Facilities: 2 restaurants; 2 bars; 3 heated outdoor pools; health club (with lap pool); access to nearby spa; Jacuzzi; sauna; watersports equipment rentals; bike rental; concierge; business center; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; laundry service.
