Local inns and hotels offer unique accommodations with plush amenities. For Valentine 's Day, a honeymoon, or a surprise getaway with your loved one, here are your top picks for that special trip:

The Moorings Village, located in Islamorada in the Upper Keys offers a set of distinct cottages with plantation style porches.

The 18 acres of this property were formerly a coconut plantation, and each cottage is fully equipped with a full-service kitchen, furnishings, and access to the 25-meter lap pool. If you pick this spot for your stay, make sure you spend some time enjoying the pier and harbor nearby; it's the ideal place to watch a Florida sunrise! Call (305) 664-4708 for more information.
