We stayed at this motel for 12 days this May. This was our 6th visit at this charming, clean and quiet motel. This despite the fact that we have to travel diagaonally across the continent to get here. This year, as in the last, we stayed in the delux appartment that includes a small private patio. The motel is situated... More

We just spent 10 days here and were really pleased with our studio apt. It was kept very clean.The housekeeper provided excellent service. This resort is in an excellent location,close to Publix,town square and the beach is beautiful. The owners,Bo & Thomas were very good to deal with. We would highly recommend staying there and we look forward to going... More

I arrived Wednesday morning and was immediately greeted by Bo, the owner. I walked through bamboo gates into this luscious tropical sanctuary surrounding a lovely pool. I was meeting my aunt who had been to this resort twice in the past 6 years and we were treated if we were regulars. The room was beautiful, two full beds, cable, full... More

This resort scores high on location for us. Sure, it is separated from the beach by 2rows of houses/more motels along a road that runs at the back but I've got legs to walk. It's not a fancy place, more reminiscent of a BnB (without the breakfast) with hosts who are eager to please. Within 2mins of us going to... More

And in our case, my partner and I were "both pleased...the entire time" during our stay. BFR was an incredibly inviting ambiance and the florestal fauna to which you felt you had been magically transported to just beyond the inviting bamboo gate - took you to wherever your imagination wanted to fly..... If ever there was a reason to trust... More

We discovered this little gem when we walked by on our last visit to LBTS. It's like a little oasis tucked away behind the walls. The rooms are spotless and very unique, each with it's own character. There are some great restaurants by the Pier which is only a 10 minute walk away and a Publix is almost directly across... More

If you don't mind walking to the pier, beach and stores, all within 5-15 minutes you could make this work. The free chairs are a joke, if you go to the beach you will have to rent some. My AC did not work well at all and my WI FI in the room did not work. No ice machine. But... More

I’m sitting on the king sized bed in room 203 of the Best Florida Resort Motel in LBTS, watching TV. My wife and I just finished a dinner that we bought at the Publix grocery store 100 yards north of here, prepared in our kitchenette here in this efficiency room, and took outside to eat at a poolside table. Then... More

The motel is one of many "cute" privately owned motels in LBTS. Last month we stayed in Courtyard by the Sea and loved it. From the outside Best Florida looked lush and exotic. I booked 5 nights, and paid fully upon arrival. The studio "203" on the ground floor facing the pool was charming at first glance, but had a... More
