    Reviews summary

    Ocean Palms Beach Resort is frequently noted for its Hawaiian tiki decor and family-owned atmosphere. Many highlight the ocean views and sunset visible from second-floor rooms. Some mention noise coming from the nearby train and crossing signals. Guests find the beds hard and uncomfortable. The hotel features nightly fire pits and a private garden with flares lit at dusk.
