This was the perfect place for my first trip to florida with my 11 year old daughter. I needed to feel safe while being close to amenities and things to do. In Costa Hollywood resort you feel that - security is good with card access to the building and we didnt come across any questionable character's- very family friendly at the pool as well (not a big party vibe). Our Uber drivers had no issues finding us and we qere in close proximity to other beaches and a couple malls.We had great sleeps and our beach days were great because of the beach chairs that are provided and towels as well. We'd come back for sure!
