Trying to find a vacay for July rather not fly. Throwing around the idea of a cruise. Anyone recommend a resort type vacation maybe in Florida? We have two kids and just did Disney in October.

Re: Vacation suggestions

You would drive to Florida you mean? (You said you'd rather not fly)

If you are going to Florida for a resort type vaca (not disney or theme park) I highly recommend Clearwater Beach on the Gulf coast.
Very family friendly and beautiful beaches.
I stayed at the Sandpearl which was incredible.
They have lots of stuff for kids there too.

For July, since the weather is so nice in the Northeast, we do local stuff:
Boston/Cape Cod (we loved this so much, we are going back!)
Philly/jersey
DC

This year, I'm doing far upstate NY/ Niagra

Though we love Florida, it is there for us when weather is worse.

Yes, I do agree wtih this as well. Florida in July will be brutally hot too.
I love Florida in March, April, May and then the fall months here.

We did Wildwood/Diamond Beach on the Jersey shore last Aug and it was great! SOOO much to do including an awesome FREE zoo in Cape May with a ton of animals.
Plus the whole Wildwood Boardwalk thing, etc

Siesta Key in FL is gorgeous! One of the top rated beaches!

ETA: but I love cruising! If you have a port nearby, I'd highly recommend it!
