Grab a bite to eat at one of the hotel’s restaurants; there’s four on-site to choose from. Take a walk along the boardwalks that run through the marshy bay area and see if you can’t spot some Floridian wildlife. Play like the pros: The Bay Point Golf & Tennis Club is home to the only Nicklaus design golf course in northwest Florida. Paddle out on a kayak to see the amazing bay views from a different angle. Head downtown: Only about a 15-minute drive away, Panama City Beach offers up shopping along Pier Park, sunbathing at beaches, and marine-life attractions such as the Gulf World Marine Park. Panama City Beach, Florida: Sugar-White Beaches and Scuba-Diving Spots Panama City Beach’s slogan—“The World’s Most Beautiful Beaches”—may seem boastful. But TripAdvisor helped back up this claim in 2013, naming the local St. Andrews State Park as having 1 of the top 25 beaches in the United States. The park also has two fishing piers, a jetty, and a boat ramp, plus nature trails for bird watching. Elsewhere in town, you can arrange a scuba-diving trip to explore the area’s dozens of natural and artificial reefs. Every March and April, crowds descend on the white-sand beaches and fill the streets outside dance clubs. The rest of the year, however, the atmosphere is more relaxed and geared toward families. There are numerous amusement parks along the 20-plus miles of shoreline. Many of the popular seafood restaurants and bars here overlook the Gulf of Mexico. If you’re looking to escape the crowds, take the ferry to Shell Island, an uninhabited, 7-mile-long barrier island. On the ride over, you might see some of the bottlenose dolphins that frequent these warm waters. Once there, you can soak in the sun on the empty beaches and go snorkeling. It’s also worth it to visit the nature preserve at Conservation Park, which has 24 miles of trails. One 11-mile trek goes past wooden boardwalks and wetlands; keep your eyes peeled and you might see woodpeckers in the trees and alligators lurking beside cypresses.

Charleston, South Carolina: Civil War Monuments and Sophisticated Arts Scene Charleston was named one of the best historic destinations in the country by U.S. News & World Report. Georgian mansions line the waterfront, the spires of colonial-era churches punctuate the skyline, and horse-drawn carriages frequently clop along its cobblestone streets. You can get an added sense of the city’s history by visiting preserved period buildings and national historic landmarks such as the Battery & White Point Gardens. It’s a living Civil War museum with Confederate cannons and views of Fort Sumter and Charleston Harbor. More recently, Charleston has merged its Old South identity with a strong arts-and-culture scene. The streets, once overrun with aristocrats, are now lined with top-tier art galleries and antique stores, and you can catch live jazz performances at night. Step out onto King Street to browse third-generation clothiers that have set up shop in historic landmark buildings.

Fort Walton Beach, Florida: White-Sand Beaches and Ancient History A part of Florida’s Emerald Coast, Fort Walton Beach is home to miles of beautiful white-sand beaches. It’s said to have the region’s whitest and cleanest sand; the uniformly oval shape of each grain causes a slight squeak when walked upon. Visitors to Fort Walton Beach can also expect to find championship golf courses and plentiful shopping in the Uptown shopping district. Though the area’s earliest permanent European settlers didn’t arrive until 1821, Native American history here dates back 14,000 years. This history is documented at the Indian Temple Mound Museum, which features more than 1,000 artifacts of shell, bone, and clay, as well as one of the country’s best collections of prehistoric ceramics.

Danville, Kentucky: Bourbon Distilleries and Horse Farms in Kentucky’s Bluegrass Country Danville—located less than an hour south of Lexington—is nicknamed “The Birthplace of the Bluegrass” for its blue-green hillsides and because it served as the first state capitol of the Commonwealth. Right here in the heart of Kentucky’s Bluegrass Country are numerous horse farms and centuries-old distilleries. Along the nearby Kentucky Bourbon Trail, you can sample chocolate-bourbon balls and tour the headquarters of Makers’ Mark, Jim Beam, and many more. The Farm, LLC also offers an optional guided excursion on the bourbon trail to resort guests. Bicycle and bus tours are popular. Downtown Danville feels like something out of a Norman Rockwell painting with pastel-painted storefronts, boutiques, cafés, and a wine shop. One log building here was the first post office west of the Allegheny Mountains in 1792. Main Street is dotted with art galleries and mom-and-pop bakeries that have been around for more than a century. It’s worth it to take a trip north to Lexington, the second-largest city in Kentucky.
