1st Margaritaville Retirement Community Opening in Florida

Quote:
(Newser) – Good news, Parrotheads, Jimmy Buffet is cooking up something that, as company CEO John Cohlan tells the Orlando Sentinel, will allow seniors to "live the Margaritaville lifestyle as they grow older, but not up.” That's right, the world is about get its first Margaritaville senior-living community. ABC News reports Latitude Margaritaville is scheduled to open in 2018 in Daytona Beach, Florida. It will feature 7,000 homes, pools, live entertainment, a Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurant, a Five O'Clock Somewhere bar, and a 20-minute shuttle ride to a private beachfront. The $1 billion project—open to residents "55 and better"—is just the start. Margaritaville is planning Buffet-inspired retirement communities around the country.
I may move to Daytona....

It's a tourist trap. It falls under "good, not great, with a theme atmosphere for people who are into that sort of thing."

AKA: Rammie.

Though tbh, I didn't even go there to eat while I was in Key West last week; I've been there before and there are soooo many places to try down there I wanted to do new stuff. I did have a drink and buy a t-shirt though. Because it's still Margaritaville, and I'm still a Parrothead.

That said, if I had the cash come 60, I'd totally retire to a JB community and ride out what's left of my liver.

I mean stuff like the chicken quesadilla being tortilla, cheese, and canned chicken.
