Concierge "Since emerging from a three-year, $1 billion (yes, billion) makeover in late 2008, Fontainebleau remains an It spot in a town that absolutely loves to be looked at."

Be sure to stay on the ocean side of the resort, where you'll feel as if you're at sea on a yacht, thanks to sweeping Atlantic views from your curved balcony.
Fodor's "There's so much going on in and around the hotel that you can easily forget about the downy sands directly behind the property." Full review
