When can we move in?

The JW Marriott Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa just unveiled their 17x25-ft Gingerbread Village. The holiday attraction will be on display through Jan. 2. and is free to check out (not eat).

The jolly village was crafted by Chef Inder and the luxe spot’s kitchen. The display also features 15 village houses, two trains, and a massive snowflake.

The new-to-the-scene hotel is also offering a 12 Days of Christmas cocktail menu, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day meals at its Latitude 28° restaurant, and a brunch with Mr. Claus.
