We had a great and safe stay here. Really appreciated Costa's atmosphere in the context of COVID, when we felt extra cautious and therefore didn't want to book at many of the larger hotel/resort options in the area. The rooftop pool is great and not over crowded, you can easily find shade and space away from others. Plenty of elevators to use with minimal wait times, we were consistently able to ride alone and didn't have to go through the busier lobby to get to our room. Overall, we felt like we were able to avoid people well. The beach would get fairly crowded, but on the other hand you are outside so it felt safer. The location is excellent as you are a 30 sec walk to the beach and the Hollywood boardwalk which has many restaurants that are easily walkable. Parking was easy and always available at Costa. The boardwalk and restaurants off of it do get crazy busy, but that comes with the territory. The room is spacious and modern, and we appreciated that the kitchen was well equipped for light cooking. The room has a partial ocean view and partial view of the intracostal waterway, with a very large balcony that was enjoyable. We had a good time overall!!!
