The hotel

Dine at Essensia Restaurant on a Caribbean-style covered terrace to give you that island feeling while savouring gourmet cuisine. You’ll also be able to wake up and enjoy unobstructed floor-to-ceiling panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean from an oceanfront room, or watch the lively and buzzing city life from a city view room.

Excellent hotel! All the employees from valet, tiki, beach to front staffs were amazing! Super friendly and polite! The hotel it’s just a couple of walks from the beach and the rooms are very pretty, we got a double queen with ocean view, and it did not disappoint. Definitely coming back to this hotel.

We booked three suites on the 12th floor for our twin daughters' 15th bday "staycation" celebration with their 6 friends, my husband and son. The young ladies had a blast and loved the entire experience. We enjoyed a delicious "Miami Spice" dinner and breakfast buffet at the hotel restaurant, Essensia. The hotel is beautiful inside and out! Some of the young ladies and I attended a great YOGA session at the Grand Tiki followed by Beach and Pool time. I highly recommend staying at the Palms Hotel & Spa! Read less

The ambience of the hotel was immaculate. Every detail felt intentional and serene. The staff was friendly but also genuinely attentive, making me feel cared for throughout my stay. And if you want to elevate your experience, be sure to book a massage with Korine, she’s exceptional.
