The Snowbird Guide to a Monthly Stay in Florida

Pick your window

Snowbird season on Hutchinson Island runs November through April. January through March is peak — warmer, drier, and priced accordingly. Book by August for the best selection.

Stay at least 60 nights

A 30-night stay ends just as you've figured out where the grocery store is. Sixty nights gives you routine. Ninety gives you a life.

Bring less than you think

Our residence is fully stocked — full kitchen, linens, beach gear. Bring clothes, prescriptions, and your favorite pillow. Everything else is here.

Set up local basics on day one

  • Publix delivery (Instacart works better than shopping in season)
  • A local pharmacy for prescription refills
  • A doctor's office that accepts new patients — ask us for referrals
  • The Jensen Beach farmer's market, Sundays 9–1

Build a rhythm

Beach walk before coffee. Long lunch. Errand or two. Sunset from the balcony. Repeat for 90 days. This is why people become snowbirds.
