Ocean View Room

As the name says, the room faces the Atlantic Ocean. The resort sits on a 6-acre oceanfront property with direct access to Palm Beach Island's most expansive white-sand beach, so the water is the backdrop to your stay. Four Seasons also describes guest rooms with a private furnished balcony, which is where many guests enjoy a sunrise breakfast.

You can choose 1 King Bed or 2 Double Beds, and the room sleeps up to 4 guests within its 393 sq. ft. Beds are dressed with premium bedding, a pillowtop mattress and a down comforter, and hypo-allergenic bedding is part of the room's offering. Two doubles suit friends or a family; the king suits a couple.

Complimentary meals are available for guests aged 5 and younger at the on-site restaurants.

The room has a private bathroom with a shower and bathtub combination, so you can choose a quick rinse after the beach or a soak. It is stocked with designer toiletries, bathrobes, slippers, towels and a hair dryer. Turndown service is part of the stay.

You will find an LCD TV with cable, premium channels and pay movies, plus a coffee and tea maker, an electric kettle, an espresso maker and complimentary bottled water.

It is reported to cover beach access, loungers and towels, pool access, fitness and yoga classes, spa access, in-room bottled water, a newspaper and internet. Free Wi-Fi is available to all guests in-room and in public areas.

It works very well for couples. The resort is widely regarded as a couples' escape, with an adults-only oceanfront pool alongside a second heated pool. The Forbes Five-Star spa has a couple's suite with a private dual-headed steam shower. Choose the king bed, and add champagne service and a balcony for a romantic stay.

The whole resort is directly on the beach, with loungers, umbrellas, cabanas and a beach bar. Both heated pools have 180-degree Atlantic views. Seaway, the casual seafood restaurant, sits on a shaded terrace steps from the sand. Florie's, Mauro Colagreco's live-fire Mediterranean restaurant, serves breakfast and dinner, and 24-hour room service is always an option.
