The beach is one of the most popular go-to spots for summer travel, providing vacation-goers with the feel of the warm sun on their skin while being enveloped by salty ocean breezes and aquamarine waters.
The livin’ is even easier in the summertime when staying at a beachfront Embassy Suites by Hilton, which sweetens a stay by providing two-room suites at every property. The hotels’ separate sleeping and living accommodations mean guests have ample room to spread out, with kitchenettes making a stay feel like home – amplified by the fact that Embassy Suites also welcomes pets, so no family member is left behind. Add in free daily breakfasts with cooked-to-order omelets, complimentary Wi-Fi and an Evening Reception with complimentary drinks and snacks, and beachfront Embassy Suites are the sweetest places to be this summer. Here are a few Embassy Suites locations that are just steps from serenity.
