Best for elevated service, a Forbes Five-Star spa and a wider range of facilities and event spaces.

Best for a smaller, more budget-conscious beachfront stay with direct ocean access and a relaxed boutique scale.
When Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach wins: choose Four Seasons if you want the highest level of service, a Forbes Five-Star spa, multiple signature restaurants (Florie’s, Seaway, Cocoanut Café), two heated oceanfront pools including an adults-only pool, and extensive event or family facilities.
When Tideline Palm Beach Ocean Resort and Spa wins: pick Tideline if you prefer a smaller, simpler oceanfront property with a full-service spa, direct beach access, fewer rooms and a more compact, boutique feel at typically lower rates.
Bottom line: Both are on South Ocean Boulevard and deliver Atlantic beachfront access; Four Seasons is the full-service luxury option with more amenities and spaces for families, couples and events, while Tideline is a practical, smaller beachfront alternative for travelers who want oceanfront rooms without Four Seasons’ scale or premium positioning.
