Wander & Rest Tip
After soaking in the serene and powerful artistry of “Scratching the Elements,” make your way back toward Vilano Beach with a stop at The Floridian for innovative Southern comfort food or Catch 27 for fresh, locally sourced seafood. If you’re looking for a peaceful spot to reflect on the exhibit over a drink, Buena Onda Cafe offers a warm atmosphere with delicious plant-based lattes and baked goods. Once you return to the comfort of your Wander & Rest retreat, continue the day’s relaxation by diving into the heated saltwater pool or detoxing in the private infrared sauna. Whether you’re soaking in the hot tub at Saltwater & Sunsets or lounging in the classic coastal interiors of Coast & Palms, it is the perfect way to let the day’s inspirations settle.
