The Ultimate 3-Day Itinerary for Margaritaville Fort Myers Beach

Day 1 – Arrival & Island Ease

Check-in & Explore

Arrive and check in at 4 PM. While your room is being prepped, grab a welcome drink (complimentary) and stroll around the resort. Walk the beach, check out the pool deck, and snap a photo in the iconic Kona Big Wave Giant Chair out front.

Dinner at JWB Grill

Treat yourself to a refined waterfront dinner at JWB Grill. Think fresh local seafood, perfectly grilled steaks, and tropical cocktails — plus sunset views that hit just right. Check sunset hours before you make reservations.

Evening Entertainment

Depending on the night, enjoy live music at Lah De Dah, relax with a drink at the License to Chill Bar, or join the nightly sunset ceremony.

✔️ Don’t forget travel-size beach essentials like reef-safe sunscreen, Beach towels & waterproof phone cases from my Amazon list.

Day 2 – Poolside Play & Seaside Fun

Breakfast at License to Chill Restaurant

Start the day with a hearty breakfast at License to Chill, featuring options like steak & eggs or a classic island omelet.

Poolside Relaxation & Resort Activities

Spend your morning at the Fins Up! Beach Club, where the fun begins early. Activities rotate daily and might include:

Margarita glass painting
Sea creature keychain crafts
Water aerobics or pool games
Find the “Lost Shaker of Salt” scavenger hunt
Complimentary bike rentals for a beachside cruise

Tip: No outside snacks are allowed at the pool, but you can order poolside bites from the It’s 5 o’Clock Somewhere Bar.

Lunch

Grab lunch without leaving your lounger — poolside service is available, or walk to Lah De Dah for breezy beach bites.

Afternoon Courtyard Fun

Try the resort’s courtyard games — cornhole, giant Jenga, and more. If traveling with kids, don’t miss the airbrush tattoos or balloon animals.

Evening Vibes

Join in on Trivia Tuesdays, Karaoke Wednesdays (my absolute favorite) , or a family Movie Night. Or just enjoy the beach breeze with a cocktail in hand and the fire pits glowing nearby.
