Not the usual Lonely Planet Quality !, 2. März 2002
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Florida. Take the plunge (Lonely Planet Florida) (Taschenbuch)
The Florida Lonely Planet was overall a disappointment. We travelled from Miami to Key West to Everglades City to Sanibel Island to Siesta Key (Sarasota). Good were the maps and the historic part etc. But the recommendation for the accommodation is really poor. Too many good (and reasonably priced) places we found are not mentioned in the book at all!

A Lonely Planet Disappointment, 9. April 2000
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Florida. Take the plunge (Lonely Planet Florida) (Taschenbuch)
While I have found other Lonely Planet guides to be top notch, the Florida guide is a disappointment. The tone, which was intended to be hip, comes off as juvenile. Good places were overlooked and mediocre places over extolled. The Lonely Planet Mexico guide is imbued with comprehensive knowledge of the country. The Florida guide gives the impression of having been thrown together to fill a gap in the Lonely Planet series.

Great maps! The rest is all a matter of opinion, 17. September 1999
Great look. Great maps, organized but watch out for the assessment of hotels and restaurants.
I drove around South Florida, making a circle from Ft. Lauderdale to Ft. Myers, down to Key West, and back to Miami.
The book was useful: the background and history information were interesting; one doesn't have to lean on AAA and can even use the maps when driving!
But what you read and what you get was inconsistent.
For example, to my pleasant surprise, I found many more worthwhile restaurants than what were listed.
In Key West, the book mildly recommended The Curry House bed and breakfast, and I found it very, very charming, with an excellent breakfast!
On the flip side, I was very disappointed when on the first night I had made a reservation at the St. Tropez hotel in Ft. Lauderdale. In the book it was favorably described as 'large rooms and clean.' The rooms were large, it was clean; but the walls were very thin, there were questionable other guests, and the whole place reeked of cigarette smoke. I came out of there smelling like a cigarette factory.
It made me leery of any other recommendations.
