Kimpton Shorebreak Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort (Fort Lauderdale, Florida) 4 Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Some of Kimpton’s hotels are new builds, tailor-made for their time and place. Others, like the Kimpton Shorebreak Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort, make the most of existing structures, updating them for the boutique-hotel era. This one dates back to 1949 as the Escape Hotel, the first of the city’s hotels near the beach to have its own swimming pool, and to stay open year-round. Such conceptual quantum leaps belong, for the most part, to the past — today’s upscale boutique hotels can only hope to refine their offerings, and execute their plans more effectively than the competition." - Tablet Hotels
