Book excerpt: Frommer's is the name you can trust for great travel bargains. Our acclaimed $-a-Day series is not for backpackers who want to rough it, but for travelers with taste, who've outgrown their student lifestyle and demand comfortable accommodations and good, authentic meals at a reasonable price. Each guide is loaded with detailed listings for mom-and-pop motels, B&Bs, comfortable guesthouses, good-value bistros, and ethnic restaurants. You'll find a bargain-hunter's shopping guide, affordable fun after dark, and complete sightseeing coverage, including the best things to do for free (or almost). Our expert authors have already gone everywhere you might go--they've done the legwork for you, and they're not afraid to tell it like it is, saving you time and money. Every Frommer's $-a-Day Guide is up-to-date, with dozens of color maps and exact prices for every single expense, so you can accurately plan each day's budget. Frommer's knows that affordable travel doesn't have to mean making sacrifices. It's about having fun and getting a great deal! A vacation in the Sunshine State doesn't have to cost you an arm and a leg when you travel with Frommer's Florida from $60 a Day. Our authors have uncovered hundreds of wonderful mom-and-pop motels, charming B&Bs, great-value condo rentals, cute cottages, and more. We'll show you how to save money on airfares, car rentals, and package deals. You'll even learn how to enjoy Walt Disney World without breaking the bank or spending your whole trip standing on line! We'll also help you find great dining at unbelievably low prices, from $8 seafood platters to all-you-can-eat stone crab feasts, and point you to the best beach bars and other affordable after-dark fun. We've got all the details on Florida's fabulous beaches and natural wonders, plus the best budget golf, affordable water sports, and other outdoor adventures. And we've even thrown in a color fold-out map! More upscale guides include Frommer's Florida and Frommer's Miami & the Keys.
