Follow The Sun - Ft. Lauderdale Golf Special

Here’s your opportunity to follow the sun all the way down to Ft Lauderdale, Florida for a terrific four-night/four-day golf getaway. You'll stay in the popular Courtyard Ft. Lauderdale Beach and play four of the area's most exciting tracks including the Cypress Course at Woodmont (pictured above), Plantation Preserve, Hillcrest, and the West course at Jacaranda. All four provide excellent playing conditions and will test your mettle (especially from the tips!).

Rates: $629 to $793 good through March 2010. As always, rates beyond this date are subject to change so, after that date, be sure to check with the resort for up-to-date information.

Special Includes:
  • 4 nights' accommodations at the Courtyard Ft. Lauderdale Beach.
  • 4 rounds of golf with cart at Woodmont, Plantation Preserve, Hillcrest and Jacaranda West.
  • All applicable taxes.

There are, of course, quite a number of fine hotels in the greater Miami area. Here is my Miami Hotel Guide of locations I am familiar with and have stayed at myself.

How to Get There:

Personally, I like to use West Palm Beach International Airport. It’s close to many of my favorite area hotels and Ft. Lauderdale is just a short drive away. The airport is served by almost all domestic airlines, including American, Delta, Continental, US Air, and United, along with several other regional airlines.

Look for the best airline and car rental deals with these two aggregators, which provide travelers with an up-to-date search tool to compare prices on airfares and car rentals of all ratings:

And don’t forget: there are many other opportunities for great golf all over the world. Favorite locations include Scotland, Florida, the American Southwest, Bermuda, the Bahamas and many more. For up-to-date golf travel news and information, be sure to Subscribe to my weekly Newsletter.
