Quick Verdict: The Colony Hotel Palm Beach vs Tideline Palm Beach Ocean Resort and Spa

When The Colony Hotel Palm Beach wins: choose The Colony for colorful boutique character, easy walking access to Worth Avenue and lively on-site dining and pool programming (live music, trivia, weekly bingo).

  • About a 1-minute walk to Worth Avenue and its shops and restaurants.
  • Close to Merrian Road Beach and other central Palm Beach attractions.

  • Address: 2842 South Ocean Boulevard, right on the beachfront.
  • Near Lake Worth Beach and a drive from several Palm Beach attractions like the Palm Beach Zoo.
  • On-site beach loungers and umbrellas are part of the resort amenities.

Best if your priority is waking up steps from the ocean and spending most of your time on the beach.

Rooms: boutique suites vs oceanfront guestrooms

The Colony Hotel Palm Beach – Rooms

The Colony is a smaller, historic property with a mix of rooms and 16 suites in a boutique layout.
