Does anyone know the names of any hotels on the boardwalk in Hollywood Beach, Florida?

Best hotel in Hollywood Beach Florida? Prefereably right on the beach, near the bordwalk.

Looking for Hollywood Beach, Florida Oceanfront Hotel? My family and I are planning a vacation preferably in Hollywood. I lived there for about 3 months back when I was about 11 years old (back in '92, culminating with Hurricane Andrew). Anyway, I've been all over the internet looking for the best match (with little luck) I was curious if anyone could suggest a hotel meeting (or at least really close) this criteria: Room for 4 people (2 adults, 2 kids ages 9 & 12). Basically 2 double beds or one queen and a pull-out couch, that would work too. Between $100-120 a night. A pool, preferably on the beach. Did I mention on the beach? lol Smoking rooms available. WiFi access. I'd really like a balcony, at least semi-waterfront. I'm not sure if every beachfront hotel is on the Broadwalk, but I'm hoping to find one near it as well. Is all of this asking too much for the price I'm looking for? I know I can get most of the things I'm looking for at the Ramada Hollywood Beach Resort, but the reviews are a little sketchy. Any thoughts on that? Thanks for any help anybody can give.

Miami and Hollywood Florida is it safe? I'm going there very shortly and I heard that the hotel we are staying at Ramada Beach Resort in Hollywood is very unsafe.. i'm kind of scared for real. How about Miami? *I am from chicago so is it basically like that -some parts bad, some good and just avoid the bad?* Jake and to anybody else who might be confused. There is a Hollywood Florida. You would know that if you knew the area. So if you don't know the area please don't respond Jake...

In Hollywood Florida, questions about the Broadwalk? I'll be staying at the Westin Resort on the beach, and haven't arranged a car. I heard there is a place called the Broadwalk. Is that someplace I can walk from the hotel or would I need a car? How would I get there from the hotel? Is the Broadwalk a neat place, or am I better off just to hang at the hotel? Thanks.

Which place would you pick in Southeastern Florida? For spring break I am most likely going to fly into Miami but what is the best beach in that area to stay at? Based on hotels, people, stores, restaurants, beach cleanness and crime. I limited it to ether Miami Beach, Ft Lauderdale or Hollywood please tell me which one you liked the most and why

Hotels in Ft Lauderdale Florida...? My fiance and I want to Honeymoon in Ft Lauderdale and I was curious if anyone knew of any Hotels that were nice, and fairly cheap. We were looking at staying somewhere on the beach and with easy access to the Boardwalk in Hollywood.

>>>>Is THIS ILLEGAL??????? ok, on google when you look up hotels in the hollywood, florida area, there is a large hotel that comes up as "Free Beach Resort". When you go to the website, it looks very unprofessional and says that it is 100% free: http://freebeachresort.freehostia.com/ is this a legal entity?? or is it a money laundering thing because it says you need to be 18 or older?

Disney World Orlando Florida Questions? 1) Which part of Disney World Orlando is most fun (Animal Kingdom, Epcot, Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios) pertaining to roller coasters and such. 2) Do you need separate tickets for different parts of the park? Like one tickets for Epcot and another ticket for the Hollywood Studios. Or is it a ticket each day? 3) If I plan on going to Disney for three days, do we need to get a hotel inside the park, or can we leave at the end of the day and come back the next? 4) Are there any beaches near Disney land? This is my first time to Florida and I want to have a good trip. Any additional Information that might be useful is welcomed. 5) Can you buy tickets at the door?

Why don't more Canadians live on the ocean beaches? Canada is great as it is, but I notice one thing missing. Canada could have at least one city along the lines of "Monte Carlo on the French Riviera with 24-hour nightlife and the surf and sand. Or like South Beach, Miami, Florida or Fort Lauderdale (South Florida) where tropical beaches with latin salsa music and delicious cuisines all along an ocean strip with jacuzis and hotel lounges. You could put more of that in Canada in summer when beach weather permits. Or like Los Angeles sunset strip or Hollywood Boulevard. Don't Canadians like to vacation to these beach cities every so often? I don't want the Maritimes to become like that though because it has a unique flavour of its own, a more intimate traditional flavour. But depending on the mood, you may want the night-life techno DJ club cafe party-all-night type of beach town, and Canada doesn't seem to have that. Canada could make a city more like Miami Beach and use gas lamps to warm the air and make this beach paradise off the East Coast of Nunavut. Why not? And then have casino cruises to Hans Island. Why don't Canadians want to live on the beach sometimes and make castles in the sand and surf the waves of the ocean? I guess Canada could have a sister city to one of these: 1) Honolulu, Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Cancun, Rio De Janeiro, Buenos Aires, Monte Carlo, San Remo, Barcelona, Bangkok, Beirut, Tel Aviv And you could eat maple creams on the beach and mix it with rum and tequilla Edit: But Vancouver is not a Canadian city, it's the Westernmost part of China. But of all of China, my favourite Chinese city is Vancouver, Ex-British Columbia. This may be the first time in history that Chinese cities got to host back-to-back Olympics. Beijing, now Vancouver I actually do like the Canadian beaches for their uniqueness, and I was joking about Vancouver being China

Help with Orlando Hotel for me and 5 year old son? I need a little help with planning a trip to orlando with my 5 year old son. Its our 1st time going to Orlando, Florida :) I have only booked my flights so far, could anyone recommend a good hotel for the 1st two weeks of march 2011? I was about to book Holiday Inn Club Vacations Orlando - Orange Lake Resort, which looks like a great resort, our own kitchen (to save a bit of money) and the pools and everything looks amazing..however after reading reviews on trip advisor there seems to be a LOT of extra costs, like $9 a day for tubes for the lazy river and $15 each for a shuttle bus to the disney parks etc. :/ and i plan to go to the disney parks almost everyday for the 2 weeks! My friend told me some hotels offer free shuttle buses to the parks and i came across Gaylord Palms, another gorgeous hotel but they only have small rooms with no kitchen so we'll have to eat out everynight. I've searched the internet and the two best hotels i could find (in my price range was these 2 hotels). Would it be too much hassle maybe booking 1 week in the Holiday Inn, Orange Lake and 1 week in Gaylord Palms? As we'd get free shuttles in one hotel and great pools in the other! Or should i book into the same hotel for the 2 weeks? I'm so confused! Has anyone stayed at either of these hotels? Could anybody recommend any other good hotels around the disney area, preferably with free shuttles to the parks, and good pools, and lots of things to do at the hotel, as i plan to spent the rest of the holiday relaxing at the hotel. Also Im not goin to rent a car as its only me and my son and with the cost of parking at disney, fuel and the Daily Surcharge for drivers under 25, it wouldnt be worth it. Whats the weather like the 1st two weeks of March? Also which parks would you recommend for a 5 year old? The Walt Disney Resort or to get the Orlando FlexTicket, or the Orlando Freedom Ticket which lets you visit: * Magic Kingdom Park * Epcot * Disney's Hollywood Studios * Disney's Animal Kingdom * Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park* * Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park* * Universal Studios Florida * Universal's Islands of Adventure * SeaWorld Orlando * Aquatica * Busch Gardens Tampa Bay Which would be the best for a 5 year old? If we got the Orlando Freedom Ticket, would we have enough time to visit much diffrent parks, or would it be a waste of money? After looking both of them up, I thought the Orlando Flexiticket looked best, but would my 5 year old enjoy it? Sorry for all the question :) hope someone will be able to help, Thanks.

My English paper. Does it sound ok? Spinning in the tea cups at Disney World, I couldn’t focus on just one thing so I looked at Katie sitting across from me. It was autumn 2004, and I was in fourth grade. My trip to Disney World was the most memorable experience of my life. We’ve been wanting to go there for a while and finally bought out tickets and got a hotel room. When we began driving I had no idea what was in store for me, who knew Ohio was so big?! We had to take two cars to fit all of us. I was me, my sister Savanna, my cousin Kaitlynne, Nana, Papa, Mom and my aunt and uncle. Two days in the car with your cousin and sister would sound miserable, bit it really wasn’t. We had fun on the was there. We stopped at Savannah, Georgia to take a picture because Savanna thought it was cool that there was a city that was the same name as hers. In South Carolina we went to the beach and collected seashells. There were houses down there that reminded me of Dr. Seuss’ drawings. They were abnormally shaped and seemed like cookie jars rather than houses. Just when we crossed the Florida border Katie, Savanna and I asked my mom almost every minute “are we there yet?!” At last we were! I saw the sign that said, “Walt Disney World, Where Dreams Come True” accompanied by Mickey Mouse and a bunch of palm trees! I couldn’t have been any more excited! We went to the front desks and checked in, and then we made our way to the Fantasia hotel. Our room was right by the huge statue of a ballerina and a toy soldier. We got right to the Magic Kingdom to see Cinderella’s castle and ride some rides. I saw Walt Disney’s statue of him and Mickey Mouse called “Partners” right when we walked it. Just seeing it was unforgettable. There, I met Alice, Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dumb from my all time favorite movie, Alice in Wonderland. Tweedle-Dee took out my hair and tied it up in a side pony, I was just laughing the whole time and my mom was taking pictures. Katie was talking to Alice, and Savanna was getting her picture with Tweedle-Dumb. That experience was one I’ll never forget. We took pictures with all of the Disney characters; I got their autographs and everything. We went to Epcot, which was really cool. There, we went to italy and Russia and all kinds of places in the World Showcase. The ride inside the Epcot ball was fun. Katie, Papa, mom and I went on the ride called “Mission Space” where you have to land your spaceship on Mars. It felt so real! It sucked me to the seat like a vacuum as we left Earth. We could move our heads or talk. Katie was the pilot and I was the communications manager, everyone had their own jobs on the spaceship. We got there in one piece and came back to Earth with a good report. When the ride was over my mom had to explain to Katie that we didn’t really go to Mars and we we’re just spinning extremely fast. Ever since then I go on every spinning ride when I go to amusement parks. At the Animal Kingdom we took a safari and saw all of the African animals in the wild. There were giraffes, zebras, hippos and even lions. I was afraid because there wasn’t anything keeping the animals from us, it was just open land. At Hollywood Studios we got to see Indiana Jones Live Stunt Spectacular. They were blowing up cars and running around the stage. I could feel the hot fire in my face, even in the audience. There were so many other rides I went on at Disney World, but I just can’t remember them all. This trip taught me to never let go of your childhood because you only have it once. Also, to live every second of your life with happiness. That’s why I cherish the memories I have from Disney World and it is my most memorable experience. That's the end. I got a B on it, so if anyone has any suggestions on hoe to revise it, that'd be cool (^-^) THANK YOU

Is there hope, or is this complicated relationship not worth waiting to see if it clears up? (21 please) Complicated is an understatement, unfortunately I can’t think of a concise way to highlight the order of events. We’ve been seeing each other for almost 10 months now. I met her in September '07 and she had a bf. I talked to her a couple times but kept my distance as a sign of respect because I would appreciate the same respect from a guy talking to the girl I was dating. October rolls around, I receive a facebook message over the weekend saying she wants to go on a date. This caught me off guard because I thought she was taken. I accept, we meet up, I find out she got dumped, I immediately think I'm the rebound so I remain cautious. They had dated 5 years, and lived together the past 1.5 years, marriage was in their near future, etc. He is one of the mentally and physically manipulative/abusive types, although very charismatic - he has dumped her numerous times in the past and she crawls back every time except not this time. She sticks with me, she likes me even though I'm a 180 spin off her ex. He's the bad boy type, tattoos, piercings, out bursting, manipulative, swears all the time, rude to everyone around him, etc. Her and I hit it off and really connected from date #1. There was pure electricity. She asked me to see her the next day, and then the following day. On day 4 we were back at college and she invited me out to drink with her and her room mates. Intoxication ensued, one thing led to another, we're on her bed. She wanted to have sex, I said no at first because I am used to only having sex with girls that I've dated. However because the connection we shared was so amazing, she didn’t have to twist my arm much because I knew I could see myself with her. We slept together. A month passes; we've spent nearly every day together since. Intimacy remained regularity while we established a solid foundation quizzing each other, learning about past experiences, likes/dislikes, etc. *Mind you, I'm well aware how backwards this occurred. In all of my past relationships I've dated at least 4-6 months before being comfortable enough to have sex. I start to notice certain personality quirks but toss them aside: -She's naturally rude, and always has a snippy/bratty tone of voice -Acts childish when she doesn't get what she wants. -Only-child, who conveniently has daddy's credit card at her disposal (synergistic w/ the above traits I observed) -Explosively defensive toward any comment that pertains to anything serious between the two of us as a relationship topic ever arises. -Diverts any direct comments I bring up for discussion almost instantly with comments like, “are you a girl?”, “are we really getting into this now?”, “it’s always something with you, isn’t it?”, “oh, really? And so is there anything else you’d care to tell me is wrong with me?”… the list goes on. -Manipulatively answers any serious question that I ask with another question that redirects the aim back at me about a slanted perspective on the original topic. Long-story short, she appeared impossible from the beginning because I am a believer of communication and prefer to tackle an issue as soon as it comes up. I also believe that no two people in a relationship should go to bed angry. She is the opposite, she holds it in, prefers not to talk about something and figure it out on her own. It almost appeared as a gender role flip-flop. I remained patient. I soon found out that she is far from over her ex-bf, in fact she’s still madly in love with him. He texts her on a daily basis with extremely vulgar, derogatory and hurtful messages, the most awful I’ve seen from a person. She blames herself for him dumping her. She also feels that she is not good enough for him because he left her, so she constantly wonders what’s wrong with her to make him do such a thing and hurt her in such a way. This knowledge made a bit more sense as to why she was so deflective toward any serious situation that had come up between her and I. After about 1.5 months, I back off. Within only 2 days, she texts me and accuses me of not caring. I arrange to spend time with her, we go out a few times. She complains that I’m not affectionate with her in public (kissing, etc.). Keep in mind, I’m crazy for this girl so I’ve been holding back because of the knowledge of her keeping her exbf free room and board in her heart still. I open up a bit more and her and I get more serious. Weeks would pass and we’d get so much closer as each day went on. Then another curve ball: She began getting jealous of any girl friend that I had from before I knew her. I acknowledged it, and did my best to respect how it made her feel and remained in contact with my girl friends but made sure I never flirted with them. We’ve met each other’s parents, spent nearly every day and every holiday together. We exchanged gifts for Christmas; she bought me an expensive watch. Call me crazy, but to me all of these are signs that she likes me and is at least interested in being more than a friend. I find out soon after, she had been talking to this new guy from another town where her room mate grew up that they visit every other weekend and go downtown to the bar scene. For the sake of consistency and fairness in the relationship I ask her what’s going on with him and if I should be concerned with her friendship with him becoming more. She snaps back defensively and makes it clear that she and I are not dating, makes it known that I have no right to question her and she definitely doesn’t have to answer to me about who she spends her time with. (Keep in mind, that while she’s telling me this, her room mate is behind her giving me a worried look that speaks to me as ‘be careful’). Turns out she had been sleeping with him. I confronted her about it numerous times and she had lied to me repeatedly. Finally she admits to having slept with him. There was never any time between intimacy with me and the new guy. Some times I’d find out she had just slept with him the night before she’d slept with me or vice versa. There seemed to be a few weeks of peace, and then my birthday approached in February. She prepared and crafted a memorable collage of little moments between us in chronological order and wrote me a really deep sentimental love note to go with it. It was the most amazing gift I had ever gotten from any one. She gave it to me the night before my birthday at midnight (on a Thursday) because she was going with her room mate again to her home town that Friday (on my actual birthday, which I had hoped she’d spend with me). I then find out she saw the new guy again. I began to feel like I was in over my head. I had never been so disrespected in my life, ever. I’ve always been honest and good to those around me so this came as a huge surprise and shock to me, not to mention it really hit deep, emotionally. Repressed resentment began to manifest as I tried hard to shrug this off after my attempts to defend myself and my feelings. One night in February after she returned we were out at the bars and I was drunk and she was being snippy with me for no good reason as expected but this time the unexpected happened. I verbally exploded at her. As we were both shocked, I was by far more surprised. She combatively retaliates and took the time to accuse me of being an ‘asshole’ just like her exbf and that I’m not the nice guy she thought I was. Feeling vulnerable, I apologized for my actions because I felt awful. I had never yelled at a girl before until I met her. She forgave me within a day, much like she would with her exbf except her used to beat her and leave bruises, while reminding me that I’m on thin ice and I should be lucky she’s even talking to me anymore. A few days pass and the intimacy and closeness returned. It appeared we were back to normal. This cycle repeated 3-4 more times from February to May (except she had broken it off w/ the new guy after March and “chose” to be with me. She declared we are finally dating, yet it seemed odd because I never even officially asked her to be my girlfriend) Our time of “dating” lasted about 3 weeks. Her exbf pulls the “I’m going into the military in July unless you give me a reason to stay” card. She drops off the grid for nearly 4 weekends while commuting to class during the week and stayed back with him at his apartment in the city, ignoring both mine and her room mate’s phone calls/text messages. I get a phone call from her exbf on the 4th weekend. Apparently she had been lying to him about me and said we never had done anything serious. He was coming to me for some answers. I told him some of the story. He kicks her out, finalizes the army papers and settles for a date to ship out. She came back to me, but with resentment and a subliminal finger pointed in blame for ruining her chance at true love (she never spoke these words, but she would repeatedly mention how her only chance at true love was lost, not implicating it being my fault at all). End of May we walked in the college graduation ceremony together and moved home for the summer (we live 5 minutes apart). Things have been amazing now that her exbf has been letting go of her, however I’m still keeping an eye out. She and I planned a trip the beginning of July with her best friend and fiancé to Key West, Florida then Hollywood Beach, Florida. We finally understand each other on a whole new level. We’ve learned to cope with our differences. I’ve been seeing a counselor about my few anger outbursts and am learning how to cope with not being able to communicate issues or feelings with her when they come up. Two months had gone by where we had been drinking and there had been no issues. July 2nd was her exbf’s departure date for boot camp. He had been recently dating her ex-best friend and he tells her this the day of his departure. She is a wreck and miserable the entire day for everyone to see. Her friends gave her space and I did as well. We were on vacation together so I tried to keep spirits up and would attempt to talk to her from time to time, only to get responded to with irritable rude remarks. She didn’t want to be around me at night when we planned to go out and have a good time. I went for a walk on the beach by myself and tried texting her a few times to see how she was doing and if she wanted to join me. No response. I went back up to the hotel room and she was on the floor talking to him on the phone. She jumps to her feet and storms past me with unnecessary anger towards me. I blocked her way to the door and calmly asked her to get off the phone w/ him and talk to me. She hung up the phone and dramatically threatened to dial 911 unless I let her leave the room. I refused only to try and get her to realize how emotionally-escalated and unrealistic she was being. She begins to dial. I grab her phone and tell her to please give me a chance, try to talk. She was going ballistic. She started grabbing at me, kicking, elbowing me to give the phone back, so I did – shocked. She charges me to get to the door and knocked me aside, I reacted and grabbed her waist and pulled her back but she’s only 90 pounds and she flew to the floor and hit her head. She started yelling “Help” and “Rape” and told me she “Hates the sight of me” and that she “never wants to see me again” while pounding on the walls. I immediately moved aside, kept my arms to my side and slid down the wall and sat on the ground in shock trying to process what just happened for no reason. I didn’t even hesitate, I arranged to sleep on the floor since we had room with 1 king bed. She came back to the room 3 hours later and slept. We had 3 more days left on the trip. I offered to find a flight back home, she said no and to stay. She ignored me for 24 hours but spent the whole day w/ me on the beach. The following day we were talking fine and like nothing had happened, but I was in a daze the entire time because I hadn’t forgiven myself. I was expecting her to never talk to me again once we arrived back home, but that never happened. We’ve spent every day together since. She invited me to move into her 2 bedroom apartment with her in August. She’s been asking for me to get her a promise ring, one that she picked out from Tiffany’s. If you’re thinking “Wow…” at this point then we’re all on the same page as I am currently today. We’ve been doing well again, but every now and then when I tell her how much she means to me and how I wish she’d let go of her exbf and make room in her heart for someone new, she gets angry and says she’s not ready to let go and is definitely not ready to let me take his place. Just last night she angrily replied “I feel pressured and I don’t like it. And forget the ring I don’t want it. Good night, call me tomorrow” All of her friends and mine as well have commented to me numerous times throughout the last 10 months wondering why I put up with her crap. I didn’t plan on falling in love with her, and I don’t know why I don’t stick up for myself and leave her. I’ve experienced some of the best moments of my life with her, yet at the same time I’ve experienced the worst yet. The good heavily outweighs the bad, at least from my point of view. I only saw a counselor about my anger issues with the repressed emotions that built over time with her. I feel now that there may be a whole different perspective and approach for the counselor to interpret. I’m noticing the length of this message now and wonder if I should even post it, but I think I will anyway. To those of you who have read this far, I truly appreciate your interest and time. Any toughts/suggestions/criticism/helpful hints?
