Opal Grand Resort & Spa – Delray Beach

A friend of mine was at a business conference and stayed at the Opal Grand Resort in Delray. I bike up here once a week, and I was very grateful for the invite to visit! Amazing resort across the street from the beach at Atlantic Avenue - walkable to all of the shops and restaurants. The pool is stunning and rooms are wonderful. They have a spa, restaurants, and fitness center as well as fabulous areas to sit with friends or read. Everything looks brand spanking new. Feels luxurious! The views of the beach are SPECTACULAR! The Opal Resort is in the center of all of action so you do not have to uber anywhere - Location, location, location. Highly recommend !

Beautiful hotel, great oceanfront location with underground parking. Many restaurants are nearby and walking distance from the hotel. The holistic spa was so nice, too. I'd definitely recommend stopping by for a massage, facial, or mani/pedi. Staff was friendly. I loved the fruit infused water near the check-in counters. The only downside I experienced was the scent from the gift shop circulating all over the main floor. Not a big deal for most people, but if you're sensitive to smells or get migraines, you might not like it. I didn't notice a scent in the rooms.

Overall we had a great stay. Our kitchenette suite was very nice and spacious. We enjoyed the refrigerator/freezer in the room. The daily maid service was very good and our room was always well stocked with everything we needed. The daily water bottles in the room was a nice perk! We enjoyed the Monkey Bar but felt like the happy hour should of had a few cocktails included. We did appreciate that they accept dogs in the room as we travel often with our small dog but we think the $75 charge per night was excessive compared to other hotels.

I visited the spa for a massage. Massage was great but felt like the provider could have improved on customer service. She took a little too long to begin the service and even said “I didn’t forget about you” (because of the delay) and she told me she would meet me outside after the service was over -- but she never came. Gratuity is included in the price so maybe she didn’t have an incentive to give great customer service.
