Synonymous with glitz and glamour, Palm Beach is one of Florida’s most well-known seaside destinations, perfect for an idyllic beach holiday or a stylish city break complete with fabulous food and exceptional shopping. A long-time favourite with travellers from the USA and beyond, Palm Beach brims with accommodation options — including intimate B&Bs, slick city spots and indulgent beach resorts. Our pick of the best places to stay in Palm Beach promises something for everyone: from sophisticated city travellers to laid-back families eager to soak up the Florida sunshine.
A 26-kilometre-long barrier island fringed by golden sands, Palm Beach was the dream of one man: Henry Morrison Flagler. Responsible for the Florida East Coast Railway as well as Palm Beach's first two hotels, Flagler is remembered in the Henry Morrison Flagler Museum, housed in his original 1902 mansion. Boasting 75 rooms and pink aluminium leaf wallpaper — once more valuable than gold — the mansion makes for fascinating visiting. This penchant for palatial Beaux-Arts-inspired homes remains evident on Ocean Boulevard, lined with imposing private mansions and well worth exploring.
Worth Avenue is the place to go for high-end boutiques, whilst the Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society will appeal to families, who can also kick back at the beach and try stacks of wonderful water sports. There are ample opportunities to go sailing or cycling, to play tennis and volleyball, or to hone your skills with a round of golf at Palm Beach's world-class courses. Stroll through The Society of the Four Arts, home to a beautiful botanic garden and extensive sculptural collection, amble along the idyllic Lake Trail at sunset, or sip a sundowner at one of Palm Beach’s many hip bars before savouring a gourmet dinner or enjoying a big night out on the town.
