About this place Jacaranda Hotel

The Jacaranda is a historic hotel that opened in 1926 on East Main Street in downtown Avon Park, a small town in Florida's Highlands County. It is a mainstream, gay-friendly hotel, not a gay venue. Rooms keep the period building's character, and the dining room is known locally for holiday buffets such as Easter and Mother's Day. Avon Park is a quiet inland town, so this works as a base for driving to Highlands Hammock State Park, Lake Wales and Bok Tower Gardens rather than for nightlife. Its Google rating is 4.5 from over 1,000 reviews. The nearest gay scene is in Orlando or Tampa, both around 90 minutes away by car.

This hotel has the strangest lighting system I’ve ever experienced. The hallway lights flicker all night and the room motion sensors randomly activate at 3am, making it impossible to sleep properly. The elevators also play extremely loud music every single trip like a nightclub. Felt more overstimulating than relaxing. Wouldn’t stay again.
