The Marriott Hutchinson Island Beach Resort, Golf & Marina
A reimagined resort is coming to Hutchinson Island! Sitting along 200 acres of idyllic shore, the Marriott has begun a total evolution. The 274 guestrooms have been upgraded with new furniture, coastal-inspired décor, and elevated comforts. They are also reinvigorating their indoor and outdoor dining venues with inspired menus and sophisticated offerings.

The Old Colorado Inn
This beloved inn is located in the heart of Historic Downtown Stuart, only a few miles from the sandy beaches of Hutchinson Island and just feet from the St. Lucie River. The Old Colorado Inn recently announced that a major renovation was underway in their newly-expanded and updated hotel lobby. Part of this expansion includes a brand-new General Store. The quaint outpost will stock custom clothing and accessories, specialty snacks and drinks, handcrafted goods made by local artisans, fine wines and seltzers for adults, custom-designed vintage postcards and stickers, paintings and prints from local artists, antiques, historic literature, and more. And the best part is that hotel guests can have items delivered directly to their rooms! Drop by the next time you’re in Downtown Stuart to see how they’ve remodeled the place.
Timberline Glamping
Some people couldn’t imagine taking a vacation that didn’t include all the luxuries and lavish touches. Meanwhile, others prefer to “rough it” and don’t mind embracing the outdoors during a scenic camping trip. But travelers who want a Goldilocks option somewhere in the middle have gravitated toward “glamping” getaways. Now, Martin County has its very own glampsite, nestled in the heart of Jonathan Dickinson State Park. Timberline Glamping boasts six expansive safari-style tents that are surrounded by incredible nature, but outfitted with all the creature comforts you’d want. Think: air conditioning in the summer, heat in the colder months, plush beds, cute designs, a mini-fridge, and more! Needless to say, these have been extremely popular since their debut!
The Breezy Inn
There’s a new owner-operator of The Breezy Inn, tucked away in charming Jensen Beach, and she has big plans for this enchanting boutique property. With beautiful intracoastal views of the Indian River waterway, the property recently completed a mini-update, adding two spacious new suites. With its coastal charm and proximity to fabulous boutiques, restaurants, and nightlife options, it’s not hard to understand why this The Breezy Inn is quickly becoming a fan favorite.
The Seminole Inn
The twilight grandeur of “Old Florida” is captured as you pass through grand double French doors into the main lobby of The Seminole Inn. The anchor of Indiantown, this enchanting property has lured guests from all over the world since its start nearly a century ago in 1926. The property recently announced its latest addition, a brand-new General Store that will operate daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. A treasure trove of local and natural delights, patrons can expect delicacies like Amish rolled butter, Mrs. Miller’s famous pasta and sauce, gourmet cheese and crackers, and of course, Southern favorites like peach cobbler mix, homemade jellies, canned peaches, warm cinnamon rolls, and more.
