“Beautiful hotel, but service is just ok”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 24, 2012

The hotel itself is gorgeous and very modern. Like most of the other reviewers said, the rooms can get very dark. I was ironing one night and could barely see what I was doing. Other than that, I really liked the decor and found the bed comfortable. The beach is also well maintained. As great as the facilities are, the service could use some improving. We didn't arrive until after 11 pm on a weeknight. The bar and restaurants were already closed, so we didn't have anything to eat after traveling all day. Also, we had booked 2 rooms but they only had us down for 1 (not sure if this was their fault or Travelocity's). Luckily they weren't fully booked. Service in general is just very slow. Getting your car from the valet takes 15 minutes. Breakfast is also slow. They open at 7 and we arrived at 7 because we had a flight to catch. They weren't even finished setting up, and our meal took over an hour. A manager ended up taking our order. They have the same slow service at the bar. We sat for a long time without getting our order taken. A manager came over twice asking if we had been helped yet (why didn't she just take our order herself?) Drinks ended up being on the house, but that still shouldn't happen. I would probably stay here again because the hotel itself is great, but they need better customer service.

“Great service, great hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 20, 2012

We have stayed at this hotel twice and have been pleased on both occasions. The service is really impeccable, the decor is delightful and the location is perfect. My only point of contention here was their onsite restaurant. Though not bad, I found their menu a tad boring. After realizing the menu was the same for both lunch and dinner, we opted to head out on the second night of our stay. On Friday night they had a sushi chef which was pretty good and they do have a nice wine list. All in all, this hotel is the perfect weekend getaway.

“"Wonderful Place to relax and Enjoy Life"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 19, 2012

this was our first visit to the Omphoy resort and we love it. This resort is very modern along with an outstanding decor, rooms were very nice with bathroom separate from shower, sink and toilet. Hotel and rooms were extremely clean which speaks highly of the house keeping crew. We had a perfect room and when we come back I'll want the same room, with a picture perfect view of the ocean and the must beautiful sun set you'll ever get.
You'll be taken care of from the time you arrive at the entrance doors, the staff was always ready to welcome you must of the time by name, and this action made a bit more special that they'll try to remember you. The beach and pool were safe secure and we were able to relax and enjoyed the area freely. My wife and I love the decor that this resort possess are beautiful, my wife loved the carpet and its designs. The Omphoy had great services and amenities for a small resort and we were impress, our only dislike was we should have made plans for a longer stay. I want to thank all the staff and service personnel at the Omphoy that made this stay a great success.

Room Tip: Corner suite better ocean view.

“Great Beachfront Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 16, 2012

I really enjoyed my stay at The Omphoy. Great room, the decor is very eclectic and a bit dark, but I like the change of pace from boring hotels that all look alike

Bring some slippers, the tile floors can be a bit cold on your feet. Witnessed he most beautiful sunrise I have ever seen while staying there. This was a business trip so unfortunately I did not eat at he hotel, but I did pass the breakfast buffet one morning and it looked really good

This is a quiet are on the south end of Palm Beach, so the beach is great and not too many people. You will want to rent a car unless you just want to just hang out on the beach. So many places to vist within 30 minutes drive.

I will definitely return to this hotel, I did book through Priceline and got an excellent rate for the room

“Not your typical Palm Beach resort”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 13, 2012

This is a wonderful, boutique style hotel with all the amenities of a larger one. The location is a few miles out of "town" but if you have a car, it's no problem. The rooms are very large, asian in style , clean and well appointed. The restaurants and common spaces are unique. The beach and pool areas are perfect.I had one of the best massages ever at the spa. My husband and I have stayed at a nummber of hotels in Palm Beach and this was a pleasant surprise!

Room Tip: We booked a "garden view" but it turned out to look directly at another building! If you w...
