We spent three idyllic days at Wright By The Sea April 16 - 19, 2013. My wife is a paraplegic, the handicap bathroom was as spacious and nice as we've found in a Four Seasons. Our unit (#106) had a casual, pretty, Florida-feeling living room, efficient kitchen area, and extremely comfortable bedroom. We spent mornings sunning by the pool and... More

We stayed at Wright by The Sea just one night, April 21, 2013, while on the way to the Keys. My only regret is that we couldn't have stayed longer. We had a one bedroom suite with a kitchenette and it was just wonderful, Sure, the hotel is 60 plus years old and it shows here and there, but it... More

After reading all these wonderful reviews I must admit we were disappointed upon our arrival. Rooms were outdated and needed some TLC. Location is a car ride (no walking) to everything. Parking on the main strip is horrible. Pool was nice but no bells and whistles. Average age at this hotel was about 60-- no children anywhere. But the mose... More

There are also restaurants and stores 0.5 miles from our hotel. A city sponsored shuttle service is available to take guests downtown during the... More

- Montreal, Quebec - 3 generations of our family have been coming here year after year for the last 30 years! Its charming setting and lovely staff make it a no-brainer when it comes to our annual trip to Florida. Kids (and adults!) can play basketball, ping-pong, shuffleboard, croquet, swim (pool or beach). Great shops and restaurants on Atlantic Avenue... More

Pros: -Staff (super friendly and helpful) -Amenities (heated pool, private beach with cabanas, kitchenettes, and much more) -Price (not cheap but very reasonable) -Family friendly but also quiet Cons: -Distance from "main drag" (it's over a mile walk to any restaurants or stores although there is a free shuttle) -No hot tub (would have been enjoyed on cool nights)

If you want to feel at home when you are away from home, try Wright By the Sea! This small resort of standard and deluxe apartments is very private but yet close to shopping and entertainment. All apartments have a view of the ocean and outdoor lounging, and are just steps away from the private beach with cabanas. The hotel,... More
