Opal Grand Resort

A former Marriott, with a priceless location across from the beach, and at the end of bustling Atlantic Avenue, the Opal Grand has been zhuzhed up with “coastal chic” decor (light woods, whites, blues), and a new rooftop lounge. Guests’ favorite space is likely the handsome pool, which is surrounded by cabanas, day beds, and has a charming staff. But it’s in competition with the hotel’s very Zen spa. Opal is also a very family friendly place with kids’ club and activities. If you feel like going to the beach, you can order a picnic basket in advance.  The resort fee of $35 is low for the area, especially because it includes self-parking.
