I'm a bit overwhelmed by the choices, have been reading through advice on here, but it obviously varies depending on needs/age.

I'm looking for a nice beach resort with the beach, cafés, restaurants and shops in short distance- preferably a hotel/appartment/suite/condo within a complex and a decent-sized pool. Not even sure where to begin- have looked at Clearwater, Bradenton, AMI... and genuinely don't mind where we go...we just want a beach-holiday end to our break.

I would love somewhere like Captiva, but there needs to be restaurants/cafés within a reasonable distance.

My children don't do posh restaurant-wise (ASD son who is very vocal when his chicken nuggets touch the chips on his plate ). So laid back and unstuffy would be great!

Thanks as always for the advice Dibbers!
