The Breakers in Palm Beach
The Breakers has been a luxury destination resort for more than a century, with multiple renovations of the 140-acre property during that time. It always receives the noteworthy AAA Five Diamond Award. In addition to having a beautiful beach, the Breakers has also been named one of Tennis magazine's "top 50 tennis resorts" in the U.S. The Breakers has two golf courses -- the Ocean Course, right on site with many clinics for individuals or families, and the newer Rees Jones Course, about 10 miles away.

Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club
If you want an all-inclusive luxury beachfront resort with a championship golf course and award-winning tennis center, then you owe it to yourself to check out the Naples Beach Hotel & Golf, a resort unique to South Florida. The golf course is the oldest in Naples, but numerous improvements through the years make it challenging enough for the experienced golfer and still fun for the weekend duffer. The Har-Tru surfaces at the tennis center are easy on the knees but allow for some great competition or just a lesson with one of the pros there.
