Delray Beach Marriott

On the corner of Atlantic Avenue and Ocean Boulevard, the Delray Beach Marriott offers a convenient location in vibrant Delray Beach, Florida. Five miles from the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens, the hotel is close to shops and sidewalk cafes, and stands 15 miles from Palm Beach International Airport.

With its Mediterranean, red-roofed faade and arched breezeways, this Marriott delivers boutique-hotel charm amid a tropical environment. A marbled lobby gets guests acclimated to the property. Further exploration yields an array of amenities, from an adults-only pool to another outdoor pool with an adjacent poolside bar and spa tub. For more recreation, guests can utilize the on-site fitness center, or take an enjoyable walk down Atlantic Avenue or on the beach, which is across the street. Many restaurants are located in the area, or guests can enjoy the white-linen table service of the on-site Seacrest Grill. Horseradish-marinated pork chops with pepper-mustard spaetzle is a standout dish. After dinner, live music is performed most nights at O’Grady’s Lobby Lounge.

Airy affairs, guestrooms at the hotel are spacious and some feature ocean views. Earthtone fabrics melded with light-colored furniture and down bedding contribute to the rooms’ breezy feel. Ergonomic work chairs and complimentary wireless Internet access help facilitate business for corporate travelers.

Expert Tip. Since opening in 1977, the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens has been a center for Japanese arts and culture in South Florida, with rotating exhibitions in its galleries and tea ceremonies.
