Independent in West Melbourne from AU$199

"I really liked the ocean view room. Unlike other hotels in the immediate area that only offer a partial view, The Crowne Plaza offers a balcony with full ocean view. That's the whole point of a beachside vacation, in my opinion!"

"This was a fun place to stay. The pool area and activities were wonderful for a family. The location was great too. We enjoyed going back and forth from the pool to the ocean. We would stay at the Beachside again."

"If you know the old dependable quality and feel of a Hilton, before the variability of what the brand has become, then you know precisely what to expect. Reliably clean (above average for equal rating standards), unassuming yet surprisingly comfortable, just as described if not above expectations, consistent customer based service within reason. Specific details of note- conveniences to make beach days enjoyable and convenient, at a fair rate, for families, solos, or anyone in between. Cons, accounted as personal inconveniences though doesn’t lessen quality of room stay: pool and/or deck area though lovely with heated pool is best for 7 year old’s and relatively good swimmers (no kiddie pool or area), deck hot tub fits 4-5 adults comfortably and located closest to deck bar- cool or uncool depending on your preference, only one single rinse off spout for entire deck including after beach- which is backed up during peak beach exiting times and requires patience if a must, pool towels are kept behind front desk and requires front desk attendant service- don’t recommend peak check in times or management assistance, location wise is central to multiple attractions but not a great deal of options dinning wise within a 1-2 mile distance."
