2 Day Fort Lauderdale Staycation Itinerary

People may search

Fort Lauderdale is the perfect middle point between Palm Beach and Miami! For something a little more fast paced than Palm Beach, but not as crazy as MIA, this is truly the perfect middle ground!

From boats that coast through intertwining intracoastals, to fun and fine dining, Fort Lauderdale has it all! Plus, hotels around this area of South Florida are a bang for your buck!

Most people spend just a couple days in Fort Lauderdale, so if you’re looking for a quick trip, here’s a two day itinerary!

Disclaimers: 1. If you choose to travel right now, please be cautious and courteous of others. Wear a facemask, wash your hands, and practice social distancing. 2. This post is in collaboration with Hotels.com, however all opinions are my own.

Day 1 in Fort Lauderdale:

Arrive at Your Hotel in Ft. Lauderdale


There’s a wide range of hotel options in Ft. Lauderdale, so where you stay should depend on what you like to do! If you’re a beach lover, stay closer to the shore. But if you like lively cities and nightlife, definitely go with Las Olas Boulevard!

Wherever you choose, you’ll quickly realize it is quite easy to get around! So check in, freshen up, and get ready for a fun day in the sun!

Head to Ft. Lauderdale Beach

Naturally, the first thing you probably want to do in Fort Lauderdale, is go to the beach! Pack some reef friendly sunscreen, plenty of water, and walk or ride-share there!

The best areas to catch some rays are the actual “Ft. Lauderdale Beach” or you can go a bit further to Hollywood Beach. Around these areas you can also find some shops and restaurants as well. You can choose to have lunch at one of them, or pack some snacks from a grocery store and have a picnic on the beach!

Freshen Up and Head to Happy Hour on Las Olas Boulevard!

After a long day at the beach, head back to your hotel to freshen up! Set plenty of time aside in case a nap is needed! Then, throw on some Florida-flare, and get ready for the happiest part of the day, Happy Hour!

There’s tons of restaurants and bars on and around Las Olas Boulevard, and most of them have incredible happy hours! Since you only have a day or two, here’s a few of my favorites to help you decide which one to hit up! Most start at 4pm and end at 6 or 7pm. Just check their info on maps here!

  • Oyster  Place
  • American Social
  • Rhythm and Vine
  • Rocco’s Tacos
  • Shooter’s Waterfront
  • El Camino
  • Apothecary 330
  • YOLO
  • Blue Martini
  • Tap 42

Enjoy a Night on the Town

After you grab those happy hour deals, nighttime will likely be setting in. If you’re not too tired, you can head to another venue for a drink, or even dinner if you’re still hungry!

Right now most places are open, but please be sure to wear a mask, and wash your hands! It’s also best to make a reservation to avoid crowding in case you need to wait for a table.

You can use the list above for some ideas of bars to go to, or here’s a few more:

  • Bar Rita
  • The Wilder
  • Original Fat Cats
  • Whiskey Neat
  • Stache Drinking Den
  • Elbo Room
  • Rock Bar
  • Poorhouse
  • Rooftop @ 1WLO
  • The Brass Tap

After your fun-filled first day, take a ride-share back to your hotel, and enjoy a cozy night in your comfy bed!

Day 2 in Fort Lauderdale:

Breakfast at Your Hotel or a Cafe

Wake up early and enjoy your included breakfast, or head out to a local cafe! Make sure you load up because you’re going to need a lot of energy for this fun-filled day!

If you prefer to go out for breakfast, here’s a few options!

  • Nanou French Bakery and Cafe
  • Myra Harbor Cafe
  • La Crepe
  • Michael’s Bistro
  • New York Marina Deli
  • The Foxy Brown
  • Floridian Restaurant
  • Boulevard Kitchen + Juice Bar
  • Fresh First
  • Colada Cuban Cafe

Simply search anything on your maps for the location, menu, opening times, and any temporary closures!

Stroll Through Bonnet House Gardens

One of the top recommended things to do in Fort Lauderdale is to visit Bonnet House Museum and Gardens. Built in 1919, this 35 acre estate was meant to be a wedding gift from a wealthy settler to his daughter.

Much of the old fashioned decor is preserved inside the house, which is now the museum. Outside is a sprawling garden you can get lost in for hours!

Sunset Cruise on the Intracoastal and Millionaires Row

Yes you read that correctly, there’s a place called “Millionaire’s Row” in Ft. Lauderdale. As the name implies, it’s a row of mega-mansions along the intracoastal owned by, of course, millionaires! 

There are several boat cruises and tours you can take that will take you along the calm wates of the intracoastal. Some even offe booze cruises! You can go earlier for some fun in the sun, or a little later for a stunning sunset cruise!

Dinner in Downtown Ft. Lauderdale

Using the lists I mentioned earlier, make a reservation for one of the many amazing restaurants in downtown Fort Lauderdale!

  • I prefer the word “adventurous”. Would you do this? Read first for context! This is the notorious “Devil’s Pool” at the top of Victoria Falls, on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe! I will not tell you it’s not dangerous or that it’s safe, just that the locals have created a safe-as-possible experience here that allows you to swim in this pool due to the steep and wide lip of the falls. So it’s not just a river that ends over the edge, it first goes in a deep pool, which would stop any large object, like a human, from going over the edge. There are ropes involved and also someone is holding onto your foot when you’re at the edge… I’ll show that BTS next! I’ve done this 3 times and it’s definitely a thrill! It’s also freezing and my main fear was the crocodiles and hippos that also live in the Zambezi River! Follow for more unique adventures from 150+ countries of solo female traveling!

  • Went to the viral Underwater Wine Cellar in Kotor, Montenegro and here's my honest feedback as someone who lives on a vineyard by the sea in Italy! [Comment "Kotor" and I'll send you the extensive detailed Balkans Roadtrip itinerary and tips I just made, including all the info to go here!] It's definitely a unique concept, I've only seen one other like it in Sardinia but they don't offer tastings like this. So 10/10 for the idea to do a floating barge Wine bar! The wine was pretty good, not sure about the pricing at €55 per bottle minimum and no option for wine by the glass. Also it was very expensive to get there... €100 for a 20 minute round-trip water taxi.. Also you don't really dive down for your own bottle they pull up a crate and take it from there but you can ask if you can go do it! I didn't feel it was most welcoming vibe but it was also high season and they're super popular so... 🙃 What do you think? Would you spend $150+ for this experience?? --------------- For anyone new here, hi!

  • Did you really do a Europe Roadtrip if you didn’t end up driving on a pedestrian street? That was one of my biggest travel fails of the recent Balkans Roadtrip, and it was because of a rookie mistake — Forgetting to activate my eSIM for Kosovo before driving across the border! Your international data likely will not work well in Kosovo, so you have to get an eSIM for service, because otherwise your little blue dot will just be bouncing around everywhere and you’ll likely get lost, and led down a pedestrian street (one of the most embarassing and nerve wrecking travel fails of all time). I recommend using @AloSIM because it’s affordable and extremely easy to use and install! Please use my code: TRAVELMOVIE for an extra 15% off, which is especially helpful for the bigger Global eSIM packages! Comment “Balkans” and I’ll send you my free detailed travel guide for roadtripping in the Balkans, and also a really easy step-by-step guide for how to use an eSIM!

Went to the viral Underwater Wine Cellar in Kotor, Montenegro and here's my honest feedback as someone who lives on a vineyard by the sea in Italy! [Comment "Kotor" and I'll send you the extensive detailed Balkans Roadtrip itinerary and tips I just made, including all the info to go here!] It's definitely a unique concept, I've only seen one other like it in Sardinia but they don't offer tastings like this. So 10/10 for the idea to do a floating barge Wine bar! The wine was pretty good, not sure about the pricing at €55 per bottle minimum and no option for wine by the glass. Also it was very expensive to get there... €100 for a 20 minute round-trip water taxi.. Also you don't really dive down for your own bottle they pull up a crate and take it from there but you can ask if you can go do it! I didn't feel it was most welcoming vibe but it was also high season and they're super popular so... 🙃 What do you think? Would you spend $150+ for this experience?? --------------- For anyone new here, hi!

Did you really do a Europe Roadtrip if you didn’t end up driving on a pedestrian street? That was one of my biggest travel fails of the recent Balkans Roadtrip, and it was because of a rookie mistake — Forgetting to activate my eSIM for Kosovo before driving across the border! Your international data likely will not work well in Kosovo, so you have to get an eSIM for service, because otherwise your little blue dot will just be bouncing around everywhere and you’ll likely get lost, and led down a pedestrian street (one of the most embarassing and nerve wrecking travel fails of all time). I recommend using @AloSIM because it’s affordable and extremely easy to use and install! Please use my code: TRAVELMOVIE for an extra 15% off, which is especially helpful for the bigger Global eSIM packages! Comment “Balkans” and I’ll send you my free detailed travel guide for roadtripping in the Balkans, and also a really easy step-by-step guide for how to use an eSIM!
