The hype
Travelers love the pool deck and spacious rooms but consistently groan about the 'resort fee + valet' double punch.
Doubletree By Hilton Hollywood Beach
$160-280/ nat
Bestil hvis You want a Hilton-reliable base with a killer pool that's close to Miami and Fort Lauderdale but don't mind taking a shuttle to the main action.
Hvorfor folk elsker det
- Massive infinity pool overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway
- All rooms have balconies and kitchenettes (microwave/fridge)
- Water Taxi stop right at the hotel for scenic transit
Hurtig oversigt: It calls itself a resort, but it's really a solid high-rise hotel across the street from the beach with a hefty valet fee.
Anmeldt af @Bandurina: I stayed at this Doubletree in Hollywood Beach and it was perfect for a romantic weekend. The balcony view of the Intracoastal was my favorite spot for morning coffee, and the pool area felt like a tropical oasis. Highly recommend for a chill getaway.

Reality check
The 'warm cookie' welcome doesn't quite make up for the fact that housekeeping can be hit-or-miss and the elevators are slow during peak times.
- You need a kitchenette to save money on meals
- You prefer a calm pool watching yachts over a chaotic beach scene
- You are a Hilton Honors member looking to burn points
Renhed & Vedligeholdelse
8
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though some guests report missed days or late service.
- Bathroom hygiene: Mostly clean, but watch for 'Florida bugs' (roaches) which occasionally find their way in.
- Maintenance: The property is aging gracefully but shows wear; some peeling paint and slow drains reported.
- Linens & towels: Standard Hilton quality — clean and crisp, but not luxury plush.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells like cookies (intentionally); rooms are generally fresh but some report mustiness in older carpets.

Insidertips
- ✨
The Water Taxi stop is a hidden gem — take it to Fort Lauderdale for dinner instead of driving.
- ✨
Walk south to the Hyde Resort for a different bar vibe if you get bored of the Tiki Bar.
- ✨
Ask for a 'Treat Yourself' room upgrade at check-in; sometimes they have inventory with free snack baskets.
5 ting du bør vide før du tager af sted
💡The laundry chute doors in the hallways slam incredibly loud — avoid rooms near them.
💡You can watch manatees in the Intracoastal from the pool deck if you're lucky.
💡The 'resort fee' bike rental is often fully booked; get there early if you want wheels.
💡The elevators can be painfully slow during check-out time (11 AM).
💡It's a popular spot for cruise passengers pre/post-sailing, so the lobby gets chaotic with luggage on weekends.
