We had the impression this place was built in the 80's and never updated. It has nothing but a pool. The beach is across the highway and they don't provide umbrellas to take over there. It is just a public beach. No bar, no music around the pool. And when we left they asked us to go back upstairs and take out our own trash from the unit.
Great location. Very clean. Staff personable. Kitchen was dated but everything worked.Bathroom was also dated with good water pressure. The beach was across the street. The resort is convenient to all restaurants.I would stay there again!
We come to Delray every year, & by far, this was the best week. The beach was clear, water clear, no undercurrent. The resort staff , Marianne, Sarah were amazing. We bought a week & intend on using it! Resort was so clean and the staff worked really hard to maintain it for the health of their guests even while short staffed. We stayed in unit 222 and it provided what we needed it to. We learned the resort is going to do an upgrade to all units over the next 3 years. Don't let that deter you. The units are clean and really do provide you with all your needs. I sat on the back patio everyday, read a book and had my coffee. The patio overlooks the salt water pool from room 222. We used that one, as the other pool was more for families. Walk to Atlantic Ave is about a 5 minute walk from Resort, enjoy the food and nightlife 3 minute walk to the beach from the Resort, cross the road, down the path and you are there. We ventured into Pineapple Grove and walked around that area because we had not seen it before. Is it a must, no but it was enjoyable and you can stop and have wine in multiple places. Please be kind to the staff, the service industry is not at a 100 % and the Berkshire Staff still works just as hard, just like they have a full staff. Denise and Sean (Jacksonville, FL) …
Resort is beautifully maintained and close to all that Delray Beach has to offer. Two pools - salt water and regular offer lots of seating for guests. The rooms are spacious and the full kitchen is wonderful to have. Restaurants are walking distance from here so happy hours or dinners are also an option. They have lots of grills on the property which can make your stay very affordable. Would recommend this place to everyone
We were lucky to get a 1 bedroom unit with a view of the ocean (bldg. A)......bldg B & C face the smaller pool....the large pool is in front of bldg D (multiple stories & newer).....access to the bathroom in our unit was only thru the bedroom .....2 block walk to Atlantic Ave and multiple restaurants and great haooy hours (4 - 7 PM)......some free beach chairs and small umbrellas available ($60 on beach)
We love the location, the vibe, proximity to downtown and its various sitting areas within the complex, depending on if you desire a quiet atmosphere. There are even 2 pools, one tends to be on the quiet side. The tennis/pickle ball court was an added plus for us. We both were invited to learn how to play with other wonderful guests. Racquets are supplied by the office.
My 4th trip back to the Berkshire by the Sea. As always, Maryanne and Norma at the front desk are wonderful to work with. The Housekeeper staff and ground workers are very pleasant and always ready to help. The location is perfect, very clean. I can't wait to return. Donna
We loved our stay. From check in to check out everything went well. The pools and hot tub were amazing and the atmosphere was friendly. We had a very nice unit with a partial view of the ocean and a great view of the pool. With Covid-19 in full swing, we spent a lot of time at the resort, cooking on the grills, and enjoying the resort. This was our First Visit but We would love to come back!
Berkshire by the Sea was absolutely perfect and exactly what I was looking for for my month's stay in florida! I came down to work remote/quarantine in order to spend time with family who lives in Delray. The wifi was SUPER fast and I was able to easily take video calls in the room and by the pool! The room was perfectly sized for my needs and super Floridian and cute :) I stayed in building C in a corner 1-bedroom and it was so quiet and lovely overlooking the pool and a few giant palms. The balcony is HUGE! There was a grill right downstairs and the pool area was nice and clean always. Building C is by the salt water (rectangle) pool which was much more quiet and adult-friendly than the other pool, which seemed to be where the kids and partiers hung out (and by partiers I mean small groups of adults age 50+ 😂) Berkshire is literally steps from the beach which was so nice. I found the staff to be incredibly friendly and accommodating too. I booked my stay via a combo of RCI Exchange points and direct booking, and they were able to move me around so I could stay in the same room the whole time even though the rooms I booked were different. Really could not have asked for a better stay and would come back in a heart beat!…
On Tuesday, August 4, they cleaned the ceilings and floors of the corridors with water pressure machines, the floors were kept with puddles for the next 2 days and they never dried. Wednesday, August 5, starting at nine in the morning, they began work with a machine that emitted the smell of Oil and unpleasant noise. I called on the phone and spoke with Marian, who told me that they were painting, I indicated that I was on vacation and wanted to rest and pay to be quiet in a place. To which she replied that I did not pay anything, since I had taken an exchange. Later I went down to speak with the Manager, Norma answered me and she told me that she was not there, I asked for her name and they told me it was Marian, with whom I had spoken in the The machine continued working on Thursday and Friday, even the people who painted, entered our terrace, moved our belongings that were there, without our permission. Summary, we suffered from Monday to Friday with annoying noise produced by maintenance of the building and the staff indicated that there was nothing they could do. Our experience was Awfull.…
