During your Fort Lauderdale vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Stranahan House
In a town whose history is younger than many of its residents, visitors may want to take a minute to see Fort Lauderdale's very oldest standing structure and a prime example of classic "Florida Frontier" architecture. Built in 1901 by the "father of Fort Lauderdale," Frank Stranahan, this house once served as a trading post for Seminole trappers, who came here to sell pelts. It's been a post office, town hall, and general store and now serves as a worthwhile little museum of South Florida pioneer life, containing turn-of-the-last-century furnishings and historic photos of the area. It is also the site of occasional concerts and social functions; call for details.
Museum of Discovery & Science
This museum's high-tech, interactive approach to education proves that science can equal fun. Adults won't feel as if they're in a kiddie museum, either. During the week, school groups meander through the cavernous two-story modern building. Kids 7 and under enjoy navigating their way through the excellent explorations in the Discovery Center. Florida Ecoscapes is particularly interesting, with a living coral reef, bees, bats, frogs, turtles, and alligators. Most weekend nights, you'll find a diverse crowd ranging from hip high-school kids to 30-somethings enjoying a rock film in the IMAX theater, which also shows short science-related films daily. Out front in the atrium, see the 52-foot-tall Great Gravity Clock, the largest kinetic-energy sculpture in the state. Call for details on changing exhibits.
Billie Swamp Safari
Billie Swamp Safari is an up-close-and-personal view of the Seminole Indians' 2,200-acre Big Cypress Reservation. There are daily tours into reservation wetlands, hardwood hammocks, and areas where wildlife (seemingly strategically placed deer, water buffalo, bison, wild hogs, ornery ostriches, rare birds, and alligators) reside. Tours are provided aboard swamp buggies, customized motorized vehicles specially designed to provide visitors with an elevated view of the frontier while you comfortably ride through the wetlands and cypress heads. The more adventurous may want to take a fast-moving airboat ride or trek a nature trail. Airboat rides run about 20 minutes, while swamp-buggy tours last about an hour. A stop at an alligator farm reeks of Disney, but the kids won't care. You can stay overnight in a native Tiki hut if you're really looking to immerse yourself in the culture.
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino
Welcome to Casino City -- Florida. That's right, the Seminole Indians have managed to create a miniature Vegas within Hollywood, Florida, and it's doing a booming business. Although the massive 130,000-square-foot casino doesn't have typical bet-against-the-house Vegas games (such as blackjack, roulette, or craps), it does have thousands of video slot machines and poker tables, and they're always packed. The main draw here is the casino, but the guest rooms are surprisingly cushy and swank, with flatscreen TVs, Egyptian-cotton linens, and big bathrooms with massive showerheads; the suites are hyper-luxurious. Equally impressive is the 4.5-acre lagoon-style pool very similar to the one at the Hard Rock in Vegas, with waterfalls, hot tubs, wireless access for those who insist on working and, of course, a bar. In fact, there are lots of bars here, especially at the attached entertainment complex with two clubs open 24/7 as well as restaurants and stores. The food court within the casino isn't a bad choice for a quick bite, or you can choose from several on-site, full-service restaurants, including a swanky steakhouse. The 22,000-square-foot spa isn't too shabby either. If you're seeking real Sin City action, you may be disappointed; but if you find yourself looking for a little more bling than what you'd typically find on South Beach, the Hard Rock's where it's at.
Courtyard Villa on the Ocean
Nestled between a bunch of larger hotels, this small, historic hotel offers a romantic getaway right on the beach. A remodeling and redecorating included the addition of 18th- and 19th-century antique reproduction furnishings to this charmed setting. Courtyard Villa offers spacious oceanfront efficiencies with private balconies, larger suites overlooking the pool, and full two-bedroom apartments. Accommodations are plush, with chenille bedspreads and carved four-poster beds; fully equipped kitchenettes are an added convenience. The tiled bathrooms have strong, hot showers to wash off the beach sand. Room no. 8 is especially nice, with French doors that open to a private balcony overlooking the ocean. Relax in the hotel's unique heated pool/spa or on the second-floor sun deck. You can also swim from the beach to a living reef just 50 feet offshore. Scuba-diving instruction is available on the premises.
The Westin Diplomat Resort & Spa
In its day, the Hollywood Diplomat was a swanky affair, an oceanfront playground tending to a host of celebs that included Sinatra and Co. The new Diplomat, which opened in 2002, was built on the site of the original to the tune of $600 million. It's now a 1,060-room, full-service beach resort loaded with amenities. The main building is a 39-story oceanfront tower (with adjacent conference center) surrounded by 8 acres of man-made lakes. A gorgeous bridged, glass-bottomed swimming pool with cascading waterfalls, private cabanas, and a slew of watersports and activities adds a tropical touch. Rooms are a cross between those in a subtle boutique hotel and those in an Art Deco throwback, with dark woods, hand-cut marble and, most impressive, the 10-layer Heavenly Bed, a Westin trademark, with custom-designed pillow-top mattresses and very cushy down blankets (crank up the air-conditioning!).Dining options are resortlike in quantity and quality. The fine-dining steakhouse looks very elegant, and several more casual options are available. A South Beach-style nightclub, Satine, is also on-site -- convenient, considering there is no nightlife in the surrounding area unless you go north to downtown Hollywood or south to South Beach. At press time, construction on Diplomat Landing, the hotel's shopping-and-entertainment complex across the street, was ongoing, but a few places were already open -- such as Nikki Marina, an offshoot of South Beach's St. Tropez-ish Nikki Beach Club.The Diplomat's Country Club and Spa is modeled after an Italian villa, with 60 luxurious guest rooms, yacht slips, a 155-acre golf course, and a world-class spa and tennis club. The 30,000-square-foot spa has 17 treatment rooms, a spa pool, a spa menu, and an extensive selection of treatments.
