Personally, we love anything on the water: Naples, Venice, Sarasota, St. Petes Beach, Clearwater .......... all beautiful areas, but anywhere within easy reach of the beach is very expensive, very busy year round and more expensive than here. We would have stayed on the beach, but I hated the transient way of living. We were in Reddington Shores, loved it, but hated the fact that the cost of wintering there is so expensive that people rent for just one week at a time, so people are coming and going constantly. Plus the dreaded Spring Break ................ ugh! Our friends rent in Naples, off the beach, on a golf course that is too expensive for them to play, for $5,000 a month!
