Brazilian Court Hotel & Beach Club Review

This elegant, Old World, Mediterranean-style hotel dates from the 1920s and almost looks like a Beverly Hills bungalow. Much like Palm Beach residents, the hotel debuted a new youthful glow after a remake in 2008. The 80 custom-redesigned suites all feature mahogany case goods and crown molding, Provence-style wood shutters, and king-size beds topped with imported linens. Pampered pets under 20 pounds (you know the type: held hostage in Mummy's Gucci bag) receive gift bags full of treats for a (required) one-time $100 pet fee. A large hotel by Palm Beach standards (the Breakers notwithstanding), Brazilian Court sprawls over half a block and features fountains and private courtyards. The only downside? A tiny pool where you feel you have to whisper. To counter the size is stellar poolside service -- order drinks or food and voila! A small Jacuzzi hidden from the pool is where shy types and celebs like to hide. Celebrity stylist Frederic Fekkai offers the hotel's premier salon and spa. With the addition of renowned chef Daniel Boulud's hauter-than-thou Café Boulud (which provides stellar room service and a great bar scene with live music), Brazilian Court is Palm Beach's number-one place to see and be seen. In 2009, the hotel added the words "beach club" to its name after implementing new amenities such as a chauffeured car to and from a private area of beach complete with food and cocktail service reserved just for hotel guests

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
