A Few Tips for Ocean Drive With a Dog

  • Under Florida rules, pet dogs are allowed only in outdoor dining areas, so dogs stay with you on the terrace, not in the dining room.
  • Ocean Drive is busy and the sidewalk gets warm by midday, so mornings and evenings are the most comfortable times for your dog.
  • Sunday brunch is served on the hotel rooftop; for brunch with your dog, ask for a terrace table downstairs instead.
