I had an amazing stay at the Delray Sands Hotel. Staff was friendly and accommodating. I celebrated my birthday with a few complimentary gifts that were sent to my room. I would definitely return and stay again.
Latitudes restaurant on property has amazing drinks and food.

There is no self parking, only valet parking. Then the hotel is quite old for what they charge & offer, $500/night with no breakfast and old hotel? Really?

I didn’t like the hotel rooms doors facing the street. Made it noisy and also felt a little wierd not being internal facing into the actual hotel . I kinda felt like anyone can walk in off the street. Beach was nice . Pool didn’t use. We also saw a sticker on the hotel balcony door to be mindful of the sea turtles and turn off the lights or close our drapes. Meanwhile every balcony had an outdoor light on 24 hours that can’t be shut off. What’s the point then? Rooms just ok. It was clean enough but the AC was giving me problems and the grout in the shower was gross. Plus pressure was horrible in my shower. I paid a lot for a quick overnight stay and felt like it was a waste of money. Fitness center felt like 10 x 10 room. Our waiter Yves was the best part of our stay for Easter dinner. Latitudes staff in general were great. Everyone else lacked personality and seemed miserable. Overall the location is the best part!

Needs updating bring elevator up to code

The elevator was not up to code and didn’t even have any inspection reports. The buttons did not work in the elevator. The water pressure was not the greatest, but the service of the staff and the restaurant was fantastic. I do not think the resort fee adds up to the value that you get considering you can get a lot more if you had just south a bit or just a bit when it is considered a resort.

We had a great family stay at Delray Sands! All of the employees were friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the large heated pool and hot tub. They were great even when we had bad weather. We also loved that it’s right on the beach! The restaurant was perfect . We ate breakfast outside overlooking the ocean and returned for a delicious dinner! Highly recommended hotel!

This is no resort. This place is a DUMP and infested with cockroaches!!! I checked into a dirty room with smudged mirrors, hair on the countertops, dusty coffee machine and lamps next to the bed, I’m nit not picky so I over looked that, however, when my daughter opened the toilet to find urine in the toilet, that was the final straw. I called the front desk to complain and they sent up the housekeeping staff whom were rude when they came to clean the toilet. Then, I woke up at 1 am and found a cockroach on my toothbrush in the bathroom!!! I sent a text message to the guest services that has been texting me regarding our stay and sent pictures. I asked to be switched rooms but they only offered to move us to a worse location room on the first floor with a view of the parking lot. No thanks, I don’t want to be closer to the ground where there are MORE cockroaches!! So I just asked that my room be thoroughly cleaned and sprayed for bugs. After going out to dinner tonight, I returned to the room to find MORE cockroaches in the bathroom!! I killed a baby cockroach on the wall and another one next to the shower. I called the front desk to complain again and they just sent someone to spray our room. This is absolutely UNACCEPTABLE at a so called “resort” that I paid more than $500/nt for plus their additional $40/nt resort fee. Ridiculous! I will never stay at an Opal Grand Property again.
