The Diplomat Beach Resort: Your Gateway to Hollywood’s Stunning Skyline

September 23rd – 24th, 2023

Nestled along the sun-kissed shores of Hollywood, Florida, where the Atlantic Ocean stretches as far as the eye can see, lies a haven of beauty and charm—The Diplomat Beach Resort, Hollywood, Curio Collection by Hilton. This coastal gem beckons travelers to immerse themselves in a world of exquisite luxury and hospitality, where each moment unfolds like a cherished chapter in a storybook vacation.

From the moment I arrived, the warmth of the check-in and concierge staff set the stage for a truly memorable stay. The cleanliness of the hotel was beyond commendable; it was spotless, to say the least. It’s as if cleanliness itself had found a new definition within these walls, ensuring every nook and cranny was nothing short of perfection. But what really sets the hotel apart are the floor-to-ceiling windows which give breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. My room, boasting a king-sized bed and an Intracoastal view, was a sanctuary of comfort and style. But, the deep-soaking tub and C.O. Bigelow bath amenities really made me feel like royalty. It was the ultimate pampering taking in a bubble bath with the intracoastal backdrop.

As I ventured poolside, I encountered a staff member, who was one of several staff members that greeted me with an endearing smile. The young lady not only handed out towels, but also served watermelon-flavored water. The personal touch was a refreshing surprise. Live music in the lobby also added a soulful soundtrack to my stay, creating an ambiance that was both vibrant and soothing. To sweeten the deal, daily water rentals were thoughtfully included with each room, inviting me to explore the shimmering waters at my leisure.

When it came to dining, Playa’s Latin-infused restaurant offered more than just exquisite cuisine; it provided a beautiful beachfront view, making every meal an unforgettable experience. Here, I had the pleasure of savoring the Catch Sandwich, featuring blackened Mahi-mahi, cabbage slaw, bibb lettuce, nestled within a brioche bun, and adorned with a flavorful Cajun aioli. For something a bit more exotic, I delved into the Hawaiian Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl. It was a culinary masterpiece, featuring fresh ahi tuna, kimchi aioli, crisp cucumber, creamy avocado, and a refreshing wakama seaweed salad. The diced mango and scallions added a burst of sweetness, while the sesame rice formed a delightful base. To tie it all together, a shoyu ginger dressing elevated the dish to another level of taste bud ecstasy.

My culinary adventure continued at Diplomat Prime, where we savored a delectable Octopus appetizer that left my palate craving more. The starter at included edamame hummus, black olive, French feta and daikon radish. It was a symphony of flavors and textures that made for an unforgettable dish. However, the Australian Wagyu Skirt Steak was a revelation, perfectly cooked to perfection. While the server was a friendly guide through this gastronomic journey, it was a pity that the female bartender didn’t quite match the level of service I had come to expect.

In conclusion, The Diplomat Beach Resort didn’t just meet my expectations; it exceeded them. With friendly staff, delectable dining options, and luxurious accommodations, it transformed my stay into an unforgettable journey of comfort and delight.
