Crown Reef
At South Beach Resort ($$)
All of the 514 guest rooms in the Crown Reef including suites and efficiencies are oceanfront with private balconies. Pools are oceanfront, and the lazy river promises to be the largest in town.
The night spotlights make the imposing buildings appear purple. Two restaurants and a lounge are on site.
Conference facilities across the street from the towers accommodate up to 1200 persons. Wedding planning and golf packages are offered.
It’s convenient to the entire beach area or to South Strand golfing, although not in the middle of the busiest strip which is a good thing.
