Recent Waldorf Astoria Collection Review: "The Boca Resort (Bungalows) is an amazing resort! Our first day there, we weren't sold on the place. The beach was so crowded that we could barely see the sand and the water was a brownish green color. We talked about driving to a different beach the next day. But we decided to give it another try and it definitely redeemed itself! I guess the weather combined with a very busy weekend made our initial visit not the greatest, but once the crowds cleared out and the weather cleared as well, it was a beautiful beach! The staff were amazing, going far beyond the call of duty (I even saw a cabana boy applying sunscreen to a disabled man's back--very very kind!) The shuttle buses were amazing. I don't think we ever waited more than 2 minutes for one. Almost every time we went to wait for one, there was one pulling up just then. They definitely have more than enough shuttles in circulation. The rooms in the bungalows were beautiful decorated and comfortable. We walked the grounds of the resort and found so many picturesque spots it was breathtaking. Love this place!!!!"
