Florida is reporting it's back in business

This has been a challenging fall, to say the least, for the Florida Coast, and overwhelmingly devastating for our Caribbean island neighbors. With the many closures due to Hurricane Irma and the cleanup well under way, the Greater Fort Lauderdale CVB (GFLCVB) wants to let you know things are slowly returning to normal and most facilities are resuming business. GoGirlfriend wants to extend our support and prayers to those affected by this year’s storms across the entire Caribbean region and wish for a speedy return to normalcy.

To help stimulate business and encourage tourism resuming in the Greater Fort Lauderdale area, the GFLCVB is extending Spatember promotions til the middle of October at participating spas. The offerings in their $99 indulgences encourage you to take an hour, a day or a weekend to relax and pamper yourself!
