Frommer's Review
Spanning both sides of the Overseas Highway and set entirely on waterfront property, this huge, two-shore marina-and-hotel complex was closed and undergoing a complete renovation at press time. It should reopen in winter 2009 as the Faro Blanco Resort & Yacht Club. It will offer something for every taste, but we hope it remains newly charming in a vintage Florida way and not in a nouveau, trendy Florida way.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
