Escape To Palm Beach For The Ultimate Getaway

Travel with us to a lush tropical oasis only three hours south of Orlando in beautiful Palm Beach! Tucked away in Manalapan is Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa, one of only eight Forbes Five-Star hotels in Florida. The resort is a straight shot from the highway, making it easy to navigate for first timers. You’ll drive up the steeply sloping entryway to an elegant entry with a full staff ready to welcome you! The resort is 100% valet (remember, you’re on vacation; leave that self-parking for home).

The Rooms

The rooms, designed by Jonathan Adler, offer bold colors and prints in whimsical and cheeky designs; a true Palm Beach vibe in every corner of the room. Eau offers daily housekeeping services, and the rooms reflect that level of service and cleanliness. The balcony in the room is big and private, and some rooms even offer larger outdoor lounging areas. The view is worth its weight in gold. The resort sits close to the Atlantic Ocean and offers a private beach, providing guests with a close-up, unobstructed view of pure paradise.

The Pools and Beach

Eau offers seven acres of beautifully manicured oceanfront gardens, and two pools (the resort pool and the tranquility pool – adults only). Eau’s stretch of private beach is exceptional in many ways. They offer two beach stands, where attendants chairs, loungers, and even beds), plus snorkels and goggles, sand toys for the kids, or kids at heart, paddleboards, and the best beach towels; you name it, they have it, and it’s all included in your stay. The beach itself is a snorkeler’s paradise; an original stretch of A1A eroded away over the years in the surf, creating an artificial reef and attracting all sorts of tropical fish and creatures to the area. The crystal-clear water makes it easy to see several yards out, and all the way to the bottom. It’s a truly unique Florida experience!

The History

The resort was built over 30 years ago; Eau took over just 8 years ago. Independently operated, it’s their ability to offer exceptional service paired with the perfectly-sized locale; not too small to lack amenities, and not too large to lose its charm. Eau has numerous current and future expansion plans, including Oceana, a new coffee bar, opening Winter 2021. A new Kids & Teens Club is scheduled to reopen this Fall, along with a new turtle-themed splash pad and ice cream shop, and so much more!

Eau Spa

Eau Spa is 42,000 square feet, and has won the Forbes Five-Star Award seven years in a row; only 48 hotels worldwide hold this honor, and it’s easy to see why. The entire spa is an experience in-and-of itself; you only need to schedule one treatment or service to stay in Eau Spa all-day-long (the spa is open from 8:30 a.m. – 8:30 p.m.), and there is plenty to do to stay all day. The Self-Centered Garden is a must-see spa destination of its own. This magical oasis boasts draped cabanas, lush water gardens, a central dipping pool and swinging chairs for lounging and playing.

Eau’s magical resort and exceptional team allow you to maximize your enjoyment for the entirety of your stay; you’ll never want for anything!
