Connie and her husband love traveling with Enzo, their adorable and beautiful Shih Tzu! Connie and Enzo have volunteered to tell us about two great pup friendly places to visit and stay in Florida in Orlando and on Amelia Island.
I love traveling with my dog Enzo and I am always looking for great places to visit. Recently, we just got back from a wonderful vacation in Florida. We stayed at the lovely and very pet friendly Loew's "Portifino Bay Hotel" in Orlando. I cannot say enough great things about this resort. We checked in to a very friendly staff who welcomed us and our dog with open arms. Enzo even received his very own welcome bag with dog treats, pick-up bags, and two dog dishes that had written on them Loews Loves Pets. We were even allowed to sit outside at the outdoor cafes with Enzo and enjoy having a glass of wine and a bite to eat.
The guest rooms were beautiful and all the pet friendly rooms are located on the first floor. When not in your room they ask that you display the "dog in room" sign so that none of the staff enters the room while your dog is in.
The resort has beautiful walking trails to walk your pet on and we got to know other pet owners out and about with their dogs. It was truly a great vacation having our sweet Enzo with us. I know Enzo had a great time too.
Another great dog vacation in Florida is on Amelia Island.
Here Enzo and I are at the Amelia Island Plantation Inn on Amelia Island off the coast of Florida.The Plantation Inn is a beautiful and pet friendly hotel located right on the ocean. If you golf you will love this resort. The guest rooms were lovely and all have ocean views. The resort was spread out, but had wonderful walking trails which would take you over to the outdoor boutique shopping area which had many great stores. Even a cute doggy boutique. They also have a "general store" which serves breakfast and lunch and you are welcomed to sit on the outside deck area and eat with your pet.
We had such a great time doing nothing but relaxing and enjoying the sounds of the ocean.
Here are Connie and Enzo out for a walk in Amelia Island on the boardwalk. Enzo looks comfy!
