Accommodations
King Bed Intracoastal View
The hotel provides several room and suite options to cater to various preferences, all very clean and featuring modern design and clean lines, decorated in light wood and earth tones with blue accents. Room views include oceanfront for unencumbered views of the Atlantic and then scale back to include ocean view, partial ocean view, and Intracoastal Waterway. Within each view category is a subset of room configurations, ranging from standard rooms with 2 queens or 1 king bed to spacious suites. The opulent presidential and penthouse suites feature large living areas and extra amenities, however, despite their large size both feature only a king bed and pull-out to accommodate a total of 4 adults. Balconies provide an excellent place to enjoy these stellar views.

From the upscale elegance of Diplomat Prime, specializing in prime cuts of steak and fine wines, to the vibrant flavors of Monkitail, offering modern Japanese cuisine and a lively lounge atmosphere, there is a variety of culinary options. However, none of them are moderately priced.
