In order, the hotels are

  3. The Henderson, a Salamander Beach & Spa Resort, Destin
  4. Opal Sands Resort, Clearwater Beach

Travel and Leisure said:

This year’s top spot went to a World’s Best newcomer, the Pearl Hotel, a tony, European-inspired property in the resort town of Rosemary Beach, in the Panhandle. The fresh, contemporary spin on traditional glamour makes it stand out from the crowd, and stellar amenities — including access to golf and tennis facilities and a selection of spacious pools at St. Joe Club & Resorts — put this year’s winner over the top. Taking second place is a return favorite, Little Palm Island Resort & Spa, in the Florida Keys.
