I can't say enough good things about this place!
Check in was easy. Staff was kind. Room/view were amazing!
The king bed was extremely comfortable. The pull out couch was a little uncomfortable for my 12 yr old but my 10 yr old didn't seem to mind it.
Full kitchen with plates, cups, silverware. Although there is an oven and cook top, I did not see any pots/pans to cook with which wasn't a big deal to us bc we grabbed food that didn't require cooking (breakfast/lunches).
I recommend Georgio's bakery for breakfast or sunset dinner. Nick's has great seafood and burgers (delicious drinks too!). Ocean Alley had an AMAZING seafood platter. Rocco's pizzeria... the best!
There are extra fees due at check in directly to CHC (which is the name of the place). But it still came in under budget and there is rooftop Infinity pool that was outta this world.
I also highly recommend taking the water taxi up to Lauderdale for the day and exploring (Las Olas Blvd, A1A main drag, Birch Tree State Park). it was a great experience and my kids loved it. wear walking shoes and pack swimming stuff as it's right on the beach there.
We had a small issue that was resolved quickly and I greatly appreciated that!
It can get a little loud in the morning with deliveries to the businesses on the board walk but we used white noise on the mornings we wanted to sleep in.
Lastly, the view from the balcony was all that and more. Exactly what I was looking for when I booked the trip.
HIGHLY recommend staying with Cielo management properties at the CHC (Costa Hollywood Beach Hotel).
