Hotel information |
Many of us will be staying at the Seaside Resort, 4770 El Estero Blvd., Ft. Myers Beach, FL 33931. 888-226-6555. Ask for Perry or Cheryl, and say that you're with the Roy Hobbs tournament and you'll get 10% off the rates listed on the Internet. The Seaside is right on the beach, facing the Gulf. It's about a 35-60 minute drive to the fields. It has 2-br condos with full kitchens, etc. They have a website with pictures and maps. Check it out. In any case, make your own arrangments for lodging, either at the beach or in town. The Roy Hobbs website has lodging information too. If you want to combine with someone, let me know and I'll try to orchestrate. Info from Clyde... For those planning to go to the world series, check out:
