Though coveting thy neighbor's wife or underground sprinkler system is beyond the pale, longing for a mouthful of his cuisine is an understandable desire. Today's Groupon satisfies desires to eat from the table of our nation's neighbor: for $7, you get $14 worth of Mexican fare at Mr. Tequila Grill and Restaurant.

Mr. Tequila Grill and Restaurant's menu conjures images of desert sunsets with its rich palette of south-of-the-border cuisine. Streams of salsa verde and oaxaca cheese course over chicken-, beef-, or steak-stuffed enchiladas ($8.99), and cocktail shrimp swim in a goblet garnished with citrus, cilantro, onion, and tomato ($12.99). Crowns of nacho cheese rest on a pair of burritos Mexicanos filled with juicy chicken or steak ($9.75), and knives whack at veggie burritos to unleash a piñata-worthy assortment of onion, peppers, tomato, mushroom, and salsa ($8.99). While tortilla chips ferry spicy salsas into mouths, skillets of Texanas fajitas sizzle warnings to forks who dare disturb their succulent combinations of steak, chicken, and shrimp ($13.99).

Spacious Rooms Overlooking St. Johns River

The St. Johns River-which neatly slices Jacksonville, Florida, down the middle-is one of the only rivers in America that flows north. Along its banks, the Jacksonville Landing has been attracting residents and visitors for more than 20 years with swanky shops, creative eateries, live-music clubs, and more than 300 special outdoor events held every year. The Wyndham Jacksonville Riverwalk occupies a prime spot directly across the river from the Landing and in the heart of the city's trendy San Marco entertainment district.

Each standard room in the hotel features contemporary and warm decor, with marigold-yellow walls and golden-hued linens. In the morning, you can head downstairs for a complimentary cooked-to-order breakfast in the Wyndham's St. John's Cafe, then snooze peacefully in the sun while suspended in a hammock next to the outdoor pool.

Jacksonville, Florida: Sprawling City with Public Parks and Open Squares

Located in northern Florida 25 miles from the Georgia state line, Jacksonville has the distinction of being the largest city, area-wise, in the United States. This doesn't translate to vast expanses of pavement and canyons of skyscrapers, however. More than 80,000 acres of parkland lie within the city limits, surrounding visitors with lush landscaping and squirrel networking opportunities. A particularly nice park is Tree Hill Nature Center. Located five minutes from downtown, this green space is crisscrossed with 50 acres of trails leading through shady forests.

The neighborhood where the Wyndham is located, San Marco, is one of Jacksonville's oldest. Noted for its 1920s-era Mediterranean Revival homes-featuring balconies, terra-cotta tile roofs, and elaborate carvings-the area rewards sightseers with interesting architecture around every turn. As the sun goes down, head over to the San Marco Square, an open piazza surrounded by upscale restaurants and an old-fashioned movie theater.

Historical Mansion on Banks of St. Johns River

In 1922, the heir to the Palmolive soap fortune built a lavish winter mansion on the banks of the St. Johns River in Orange Park, Florida. The Italianate home-named Mira Rio at the time-was set amid vast expanses of lawn dotted with 300-year-old oaks and carefully manicured gardens. In 1966, the estate was renamed The Club Continental and turned into a private club and hotel outfitted with tennis courts, three outdoor pools, and 22 guest rooms.

Each of the king or two-room River suites is decorated differently, but all rooms have a private balcony overlooking the river. In the spacious River suite 304, there's a living room with a fireplace and a mini kitchen set off to one side. The marble-counter bathroom is huge, with a large jacuzzi soaking tub and a painted mural of river scenes on the wall. Elsewhere in the suite, oriental rugs cover the floor, and a painting of old Florida hangs over the mantel. The historic manse does not have elevators, but handicap-accessible rooms are available upon request.

At the onsite waterfront restaurant, known simply as The Club Restaurant, chefs whip up dishes such as grilled salmon with a Grand Marnier sauce and Kobe brisket braised in soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. You can stroll the grounds after dinner, ambling past trees romantically draped with spanish moss.

Greater Jacksonville, Florida: Lush Gardens and 17th-Century Fortresses

The little town of Orange Park is set along the St. Johns River in northeastern Florida. Early residents hoped to grow citrus fruit on the land-hence the name Orange Park. The Great Freeze of 1894-95 put an end to that dream, and eventually the town became a suburb of Jacksonville. But though you may not be able to look out on orange groves from your room at The Club Continental, you can still visit The Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens, located about 15 miles from hotel. The facility's 100-year-old gardens showcase ancient oak trees, rare plants, and antique sculptures. There are also serene reflecting pools and an elaborate, azalea-filled Italian Garden.

Orange Park is a 40-minute drive from historic St. Augustine, where several 17th-century Spanish forts, including the Castillo de San Marcos, stand guard over America's oldest port. Close by, Anastasia State Park, which encompasses 4 miles of white-sand beaches, is a daytrip-worthy stop on St. Augustine's Atlantic coast.

Party-Centric Hotel on Florida's West Coast

On a typical weekend night at Bentley's Resort Hotel, crowds gather around the Osprey Beach Pool for live music and cocktails. After a dance by the tiki bar, you can kick back on a couch under one of the poolside palapas. The pool deck is undoubtedly the heart of the hotel, but when the ocean calls, Bentley's provides free transportation to some of the best beaches on Florida's west coast, including Siesta Key-Dr. Beach's best beach of 2011-and Nokomis Beach on Casey Key.

The chef at the hotel's ultra-sleek restaurant, Morgan's, uses fresh, locally sourced ingredients to create dishes such as grouper piccata. After a stunning sunset on the Gulf coast, the party shifts to the Jaguar Lounge and its adjacent Underground Nightclub, where DJs spin classic soul, top 40, and electronic dreidels. Like the restaurant and nightclub, accommodations at Bentley's are modern and sleek. Bold artwork and modern fixtures adorn the Euro-chic rooms, each one named after a station on the London underground.

South Sarasota: Refuge for Endangered Birds and Artists

Just down the street from Bentley's Resort Hotel, you'll find the entrance to Oscar Scherer State Park, where stands of scrubby flatwood trees serve as a refuge for the threatened Florida scrub jay. Keep an eye out for its sapphire and cream plumage while biking or hiking through the park's trails or canoeing the blackwater South Creek (canoe rentals are available at the ranger station).

Bookstores and art venues are plentiful a few miles up the road in Sarasota, an enclave for artists, writers, and musicians. The Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall-a frequent host of Broadway and ballet shows-stands out as one of Sarasota's cultural hubs. The building's exterior is entirely purple, and the deep ridges of its iconic modern roof turn lilac in the Florida sun.

Schwinn Shop

Dave Bee, the owner of Schwinn Shop, was practically born on the bicycle saddle-two of his uncles own cycling dealerships, and he remembers being able to ride before he could even walk. His first set of wheels, a 1968 Schwinn Pixie, now hangs on the store's wall, along with wooden-wheeled bikes and quirky items ranging from a Pee-Wee Herman doll collection to turn-of-the-century skis. Bee calls his enterprise a "museum of sorts," a testament to the freedom of spirit one can only discover from behind the handlebars. Indeed, the store's bevy of new and used bicycles entices potential owners to trade in their gas-guzzling horses and set out for new adventures.

From the modern Schwinn designs to an assortment of Giant mountain bikes, cruisers, and single-speed commuters, Schwinn Shop's inventory offers options to suit any riding style. For current owners, the full-service repair shop can cure any ailment, from misaligned wheels to graying tassels, and Bee and his team of cycling technicians can customize frames with colorful tires or parts and accessories from Shimano, Origin-8, and Odyssey. The staff also rent out hybrid bikes for leisurely rides around Gainesville, catering to customers unwilling to endure the sleepless nights of ringing bells associated with bike ownership.
