The Pool at The Pillars Hotel & Club

"Make sure to spend some time at the hotel's charming free-form pool, which overlooks the Intracoastal Waterway—by day, there's free iced tea on tap and you can book an alfresco massage at the spa"

"Most rooms have views of the Intracoastal Waterway or pool, with French doors opening to individual patios or balconies"

"The hotel's highlight is its courtyard pool, which features a beautiful view of the Intracoastal Waterway, but those wanting to stay directly on the beach may consider the Pelican Grand Beach Resort, which is larger but has a similar beach-cottage feel in the rooms and restaurants"

"A gorgeous pool and courtyard create a relaxed ambience"

"Quiet, intimate British-colonial-style hotel with plush rooms, antique furniture, lush gardens and a pool, sitting just a block from the ocean on the Intracoastal"
