Rated 4.5 across 1,986 reviews with 4.7 cleanliness, 4.7 rooms, 4.8 location, 4.6 service, 4.7 sleep quality; value 4.3 is the only softer signal at the $249-$304 nightly rate. Amenities include pool, beach access, on-site spa, bar/lounge, fitness center, bicycle rental, EV charging, books, DVDs and music for children, and free WiFi. A 5-star repeat guest specifically wrote ‘We stayed 4 nights at the resort. I needed distilled water for my CPAP, they had it delivered to my room the day after we arrived. We had room 201 and I recommend it. Wrap around terrace, pool on one side, ocean on the other.’ A 5-star guest called out ‘front desk manager Demarko Taylor is incredible’ as one of the standouts; another 5-star guest wrote ‘Ashely at the Front Desk was friendly.’ A 4-star guest wrote ‘We had an overall pleasant stay and would rate the hotel 4 out of 5 stars. Particularly noteworthy are the cleanliness and the excellent service. The entire hotel was very clean, and all staff members were unfailingly friendly.’ Not a marketed in-room-jacuzzi property — the on-site spa handles the couples-massage-and-treatment side. Best for Treasure Coast romance weekends, Ocean Drive shoppers, sea-turtle-nesting-season families and Riverside Theatre visitors wanting a Kimpton boutique oceanfront experience.
What Guests Are Saying
“We stayed 4 nights at the resort. I needed distilled water for my CPAP, they had it delivered to my room the day after we arrived. We had room 201 and I recommend it. Wrap around terrace, pool on one side, ocean on the other. King size bed was very comfy, large suite area. Room could use more electrical outlets. Water in the sink was running slowly, reported to mgmt, fixed within 30 min. Ordered extra bath towels, brought to our room within minutes. Beautiful beach, lots of seaweed, but hotel cannot control that. Breakfast was good, other meals at hotel were fair, but not bad. Service was quite good and attentive. A good location to walk to other restaurants and shops on the main drag. We did not research the restaurants before we went, so we just had OK means. The pool is heated and there is a nice hot tub. The ocean was easy to get into, warm for this time of year. If you want to eat outside, this is a very good place. Would recommend it. Our flights from Westchester were pretty full, I was surprised this time of year. Breeze did a good ontime job.” — Bill A., 5 stars
“First Class Resort 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I had an incredible stay at the Kimpton Vero Beach. From the moment you check in, You can feel the Chic, Warm vibes that all Kimpton Hotels provide . Ashely at the Front Desk was friendly, informative, and professional. She answered all my questions with confidence and gave me some great recommendations in the area. The whole Resort is kept clean and polished. All staff members are friendly and respectful. The rooms are very spacious with great amenities! All of Heatons bartenders, including Charlie (pool Bar) are top notch. Great knowledge of the property and area and make great cocktails and food recommendations. The Spa on property is very tranquil, and is the cherry on top to a relaxing beach resort vacation. Rachel the Spa reception made it seamless To book, and the massage therapist Cassandra was incredible.

Looking forward to my next trip back to Kimpton Vero Beach!” — lance, 5 stars
“We had a very enjoyable few days staying here. What makes it special is the staff throughout the hotel are exceptional. They give the impression that they genuinely care about your stay and not simply going through the motions to get a tip. We had an issue with our room which was professionally handled. The rooms themselves are very clean. Yes, certain ares could do with an update, but overall we have no complaints. Will be returning.” — MikeS65, 5 stars

What guests are saying about Kimpton Vero Beach Hotel & Spa.
"Can not recommend this hotel enough! I live in Vero Beach and it is my absolutely favorite spot to grab a drink - the views are unmatched. When I got engaged I knew I didn't want to get married anywhere else! Our wedding here was an absolute dream - if you are looking for a venue in Vero - this is the best of the best! Nikki and Jennifer were so helpful in working through the details of our day - quick to respond and always friendly! On the day of the wedding everything ran so smoothly and the staff was so wonderful - all of my guests raved about the food, drinks, space - everything! Special shoutout to our VIP server, Toni - she made sure my husband and I didn't lift a finger! We did a room block and Caitlin and Elizabeth were so amazing to work with! They are so sweet and accommodating with every request. They truly made the process so easy. They also arranged an beautiful room for us for the weekend - it was PERFECT! All of our guests loved the rooms and accommodations. These two are the absolute best at their jobs!"

My dog and I felt very welcome from beginning to end of our visit. Jack in the valet services was professional and courteous. Each time he helped us, I felt well taken care of with positive attitudes (despite me not having a single dollar left in my wallet to tip him after checkout). I would like to shout out a young gentleman who was particularly kind and represents the hotel very well. Marco Finelli (goes by Demarco I learned) went out of his way to help us feel very welcome. When my hands were full, he helped me to the elevator and pushed the button to get me on the road to my room. Day 2, same enthusiasm! He is a great asset to the organization. As a (slightly) older woman I appreciated his helpfulness ☺️ The view can't beat! This was my first stay at this resort, and it will not be my last!"

Our deepest thanks to Nikki, Caitlin, Elizabeth, and the entire Kimpton team for their care, precision, and genuine heart throughout the entire weekend. Every detail was handled with intention and professionalism, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy every moment. We are endlessly grateful to have begun our next chapter in such a beautiful and thoughtfully supported space."
