Located just across the street from the Gulf of Mexico, Village by the Gulf is a Southern vacation heaven. On site, enjoy the lighted tennis court, basketball court, outdoor pool, playground, and clubhouse with barbecue grills. Guests can also borrow bicycles from the resort. Five miles away, you can choose from waterskiing, skin diving, and freshwater fishing. To round out the recreational opportunities, seven 18-hole golf courses (one designed by Arnold Palmer), miniature golf courses, a water park, and an amusement park are in the area.
