The pink tinge of the beach here comes from coquina shells washing ashore constantly, which is the kind of detail that earns a resort its coastal bragging rights. This sprawling Florida golf resort pairs Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson signature courses with a 91,000-square-foot water park, a sea-influenced spa, and activities bundled into the stay. Families pack the place, and honestly, mini-golf and dive-in movies at no extra charge keep everyone occupied without much negotiation.

A mid-century-styled beach hotel right where the Jacksonville road runs out at Atlantic Beach, close enough to the Atlantic that you catch the sunrise over the water from your room. The spa, a tiki bar called Soothsayer, a full restaurant, a breakfast café, and an ice cream shop mean you could plausibly never leave the property, which is either a feature or a warning depending on your disposition.
