If you're dreaming of sandy toes, frozen drinks, and sunset views with just the right amount of fun and relaxation — welcome to Margaritaville Fort Myers Beach.


This laid-back resort delivers the perfect combo of coastal luxury, family-friendly vibes, and beach-town fun.


Whether you're traveling as a couple, with kids, or on a girls' trip, this Margaritaville Fort Myers Beach 3-day itinerary will help you make the most of your stay — all without feeling rushed.



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.

Quick Breakfast & Morning Moments

Enjoy a lighter breakfast and coffee from The Coconut Telegraph Café, paired with a beach walk or one last swim in the pool.

If time allows, book a relaxing massage at the St. Somewhere Spa or browse beachwear and souvenirs at the resort shops.


Sweet Send-Off

Grab a milkshake or iced latte before you head out — it’s the perfect final treat from the Coconut Telegraph.


Note: Check-out is 11 AM, but guests can continue enjoying the pool and resort amenities until 5 PM!

I also got my cranberry hibiscus at Echo in Ft. Myers over 13 years ago and I love that they still pop up in my yard. I've been trying to find the exact macros this plant provides to your diet but all I ever come up with is info on either the tea or the flowers. I use the leaves in my salads daily when its growing fresh in my yard. I do prefer the smaller leaves for salad. Any additional info you may have is appreciated!
