The magnificent beaches of Palm Beach, Fla. are lavished by many luxury hotels. But only one of these deserves to be named the undisputed queen of Palm Beach.
That’s the magnificent Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa.
With Eau Palm’s classic Florida Gold coast classic architecture and lavish gardens as the backdrop, enjoy its spectacular pools, powdery white sugar-sand beach, renowned Italian gourmet restaurant Polpo Palm Beach, beautifully decorated designer rooms with OMG ocean vistas and super-comfy king size beds that feel like you’re sleeping on a cloud.
Keep your terrace door open at night to listen to the waves crashing below. Then wake up early because the tropical sunrises are out of this world. There are secluded private cabanas on the beach if you want to remain anonymous.
There are classes for children and teens and tennis courts where expert lessons are available. There’s a spectacular 24/7 fitness center with classes every day.
But Eau Palm’s crown jewel is its Eau Spa, which is a infinitely more spectacular than spas at all other luxury Palm Beach hotels. You’ll never want to get out of the oversized jacuzzi with its invigorating, pounding tropical rain.
My incredible massage was the best I’ve experienced at any luxury hotel anywhere in the world. My masseur’s magical hands transported me into another dimension. Surprise your significant other with a renowned facial or body treatment. They’re expensive, but worth it.
The extraordinary food at Polpo blew me away. Every dish was a culinary masterpiece. The seafood tasted like it just jumped out of the ocean, grilled to perfection. The signature Polpo octopus was better than what I devoured in the Greek Islands. The remarkable wine list compares to the finest four-star restaurant.
BOKEN, the resort’s sushi restaurant, has some of the most delicious sushi in Palm Beach. The Breeze Ocean next to the pool and overlooking the beach had yummy food with a Caribbean flair and tropical drinks. Order the outrageous Mahi Mahi tacos. Have lunch at Savor, the wellness terrace café or try the elegant Angle Restaurant, which deserves a standing ovation.
While relaxing at the pool or beach you’ll absolutely love star-gazing – discriminatingly, of course – at the hotel’s celebs and its gorgeous suntanned guests from Palm Beach, Beverly Hills and the Hamptons, glowingly Tres chic in their St. Tropez bikinis. While sunbathing at the pool, waiters come by and treat you to cups of delicious frozen grapes. The charming Eau Palm staff will endlessly treat you like family.
Once you check into the Eau Palm, you never have to leave. They’ve anticipated everything to guarantee you a nonstop spectacular luxury getaway. That includes five mouthwatering restaurant options for spectacular dining experiences. (There’s no need to ever get dressed up to go out to dinner.) There are free bikes, so one day cruise to the fancy Worth Avenue shops. Splurge and buy a pair of sexy Italian pants, handbag or shoes at Jennifer Tattanelli’s beautiful leather shop.
As a travel journalist, I’ve been invited to some of the world’s finest four- and five-star luxury hotels in Europe and the Caribbean, and the Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa is a one-of-a-kind luxury hotel and unequivocally the undisputed queen of Palm Beach in every possible way.
