Gas Shortages
Floridians are starting to find that gas stations in the state are running out of fuel. Now that Florida is under a State of Emergency, local retailers are not allowed to raise gas rates significantly higher than what they charged in the past month.
If they do, the retailer must show proof that their price to obtain the fuel has gone up. During the past 30 days, Florida gas prices have averaged at about $2.45 per gallon for regular unleaded fuel. To report suspected price gouging, call 1-866-966-7226 or visit the Florida Attorney General’s website.

Thank you Rosen Hotels and Resorts for letting the families bring their pets also. I will stay with you when I come down just for this reason!!
Rosen Inn are the best, we stayed there the beginning of the 6 weeks holidays and will definitely be staying there again. Highly recommend them.
