The Best Pet-Friendly Hotels to Book in Vero Beach, Florida

Request a pet-friendly room with direct garden access – trust us, your pet will thank you for the close bathroom and you’ll appreciate a potty walk that only requires you to throw on slippers. If they wag and woof early, the Cup already has Starbucks brewing. If they can’t hold their little bladders overnight, you might as well walk them then head to the Havana Nights Piano Bar for a nightcap.

Take a long vacation with your furry best friend at Star Suites. This extended-stay hotel outside of the city center is the quiet retreat you need. Not a woof or a growl will come from your king suite, unless Fido starts barking orders to you in the full kitchen. If you don’t feel like cooking, walk over to the Flat Dog Diner for takeaway, taking a pitstop at the convenient Pet Potty Area along the way.

The Vero Beach Hotel and Spa takes the phrase “creature comforts” and runs with it. For the four-legged members of your party, dog treats, beds, bowls and other amenities are theirs to enjoy. For you and other two-legged guests, enjoy relaxing deep-tissue massages, exfoliating body scrubs and other pampering in the White Orchid Spa. It’s a getaway so delightful, all of you will be kicking your legs in pleasure.

You and your furry first mate have permission to hop aboard Capt Hiram’s Resort. The standard rooms are seaworthy with panoramic views of the river and spacious quarters. No need to dine alone; your hungry husky is permitted to join you on the deck between the Sandbar Beach Club and Blackfins Riverfront Grill. You can split the conch fritters, but we’d recommend keeping the Capt’s Classic Mojito to yourself.

Obviously, you can choose any room you wish at South Beach Place – but how could you not select the Dog Room? The queen bed overlooks the garden, giving you and up to two dogs a calming view. Doggie decor adorns the room, including irresistibly cute ceramic poodle lamps. Your dog may turn its nose up at the sexton cat wall sculpture, but they’ll forget about this with a trip to South Beach Park across the street.

Give your hound the downtown digs they deserve at Hampton Inn and Suites. A free hot breakfast is a great start to both your days, especially when you’re going to take a long morning walk in the sun. Youngs Park and Royal Palm Pointe Park are close to the hotel and right on the river. Rover can go relax in the air conditioning in your king room – you’ll get cool just as quickly beside the outdoor pool.

Relaxed riverside lodging at the Davis House Inn in Sebastian is exactly what your old sea dog needs. The kitchenette in your suite means you’ll only need to leave your pooch for one quick grocery run throughout your entire visit. If you’ve got your boat in tow, Fins Marina is across the street. If not, grab an Adirondack chair, a cold beer and a fresh bowl of water as you and your pup kick back by the glistening Indian River.

Sit, stay and get ready to play in Vero Beach from this Hampton Inn. Right off Interstate 95, you’re within a 15-minute drive of downtown Vero and the beaches. Most importantly, this pet-friendly hotel is right beside the Vero Outlets, where you can pick up a chic new leash and collar to strut down the sands in style.

The Best Western Plus totally understands that potty breaks can be sudden and frequent, which is why their pet-friendly rooms are on the first floor. There’s also ample room in your suite to stick a litter box, while the beach is only 15 minutes away if they prefer a larger bathroom. Just make sure they stay well away from the two-person, in-room whirlpool bath in the Jacuzzi Suite. Pets are charged at an affordable $20 extra per night.
