Bottom Line
The 290-room Crowne Plaza Melbourne Oceanfront is an upper-middle-range hotel situated right on the beach with stylish, contemporary interiors. Rooms have a modern, beach feel and are equipped with mini-fridges, coffeemakers, and microwaves, plus some have balconies with superb ocean views as well as wet bar areas. There's a lovely outdoor pool with a hot tub, as well as direct access to a white sand beach, and should guests want to indulge in a dose of pampering, the hotel has a full service spa. The hotel's Marisol restaurant specializes in seafood, and there's also a lounge and an oceanfront bar. Other standard amenities include a small fitness center, free Wi-Fi, and an airport shuttle, but on-site parking as well as beach equipment rentals cost extra. Travelers might also want to consider the nearby Radisson Suite Hotel Oceanfront and the Hilton Melbourne Beach Oceanfront, both comparable properties.

Modern beach hotel with exceptional ocean views
An upbeat atmosphere permeates throughout the spacious, stylish lobby, where white walls are accented by cool, wood panelling and paired with modern couches and colorful armchairs. The sunlit Marisol restaurant is an elegant, contemporary space full of wooden tables and woven chairs, with large, multicolored tile decorating the wall. The Surfside Lounge is a more casual space, with both indoor and outdoor seating areas that offer gorgeous ocean views. Bars have aluminum siding, bringing to mind a beach shack feel, while the indoor dining area has bright and colorful chairs and beach-worn wood panelling on the walls.
