Tiki bar plus patio dining equals paradise

The Ocean Sky Hotel & Resort pitches the South Florida lifestyle ever so perfectly. From the sundeck and outdoor pool, guests fall for the ocean views and the poolside tiki bar. Inside, the tropical feel is never far behind. Rooms and suites capture local flair via landscape and coastal-themed artwork, plus balconies in some spaces that let in sea breezes.

Highlights
  • Beachfront hotel with heated outdoor pool
  • Indoor/outdoor restaurant and tiki bar
  • Free Wi-Fi
  • Suites also available with kitchens, living and dining areas
Rooms

Tasteful furniture and a modern palette grounded in olive, yellow and brown lend subtle sophistication to the 225 rooms and 15 suites at the Ocean Sky Hotel & Resort. Cheerful artwork depicts tropical flora and fauna and nautical scenes. Balconies spoil with ocean views, while inside, guests unwind on chenille lounge chairs or king or double beds. Suites have added advantages like separate kitchens, living and dining spaces. Free Wi-Fi, cable TV, microwave and mini refrigerator are standard in every room.

Dining

A trip to Ocean Sky Hotel & Resort is not complete without a refreshing cocktail at the tiki bar or a leisurely meal at the on-site indoor and outdoor restaurant. Open daily from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., the eatery treats diners to upscale casual fare and beach vistas through arched open-air windows.

Recreation

Lazy palms and bright blue beach chairs hug the heated oceanfront pool, which is gated for privacy. The brick sundeck also holds patio tables so Ocean Sky Hotel & Resort guests can enjoy alfresco dining. Thrill-seekers hit the nearby water sports business to rent jet skis, banana rides, snorkeling and scuba equipment, while on dry land, a game room and fitness center serve as backup plans.

Weekend getaway

Overall the it was a good stay for the price! The rooms were ok and the hotel was right on the beach. The lobby was much more updated then the rooms. The hotel was a good 20 minutes from where all the nightlife is so cabs can get pricey.

romantic couple getaway

good price for a hotel directly on the beach in this area..beach could be cleaner though, but overall great stay..also no resort fees, which was awesome because some resorts can charge up to $30/day in resort fees..

Enjoyed our stay

The hotel is convenient to the beach, grocery store, liquor store and local restaurants. The room was clean but the AC was not very cold. The pool area was nice, but food/beverage at the pool of course was over priced. The amenities were great though! We didnt even need to rent a car we had everything we needed within walking distance!

Yikes! Avoid at all costs!

This was a last minute stay. I was in the area on business with my wife and we wanted a hotel by the beach that wasn't too expensive. Because we knew the weather wasn't going to be good, we really just wanted someplace with internet access where they didn't charge more than $25 per day to park our rental car. The parking was only $12 per day, but I wish we had stayed across the street for half the price. Our room looked out at the air conditioning units, but you could see the ocean between them so it was called an 'Ocean View'. There were repair workers waking us up by 8AM the following morning. The internet didn't work and there was no movie channels so we sat there in the rain with nothing to do. We aked them for a refund so we could go somewhere with internet, but they refused to help since we booked online instead of booking directly through them. I was very disappointed and would never stay at this place again.

Family getaway

Room was clean and beds comfortable. Bathroom was small, lights did not work above sink, very little water pressure in shower and the shower mat had a hole in it. Bed was too close to the refrigerator and was difficult to get in and out of it. Area with coffee maker and ice bucket was crowded and hard to maneuver when trying to make coffee. Pool area and hot tub were clean and enjoyable. The outdoor restaurant service was excellent, however the chairs were uncomfortable and not the same as shown in the picture on the website. Was not a bad hotel but not sure I would stay there again.

Good place to go

The hotel is very good located, the pool requires maintenance, Bath in the room is too small but it works, the bed and the rest of the room is quite nice. The beach is excellent and has a good shower, not nice that they rent the chairs at the beach In general it is acceptable for the price paid
