You get two types of vacation: one where you rush around trying to fit in as much as you can, and one where you prefer to just lie back and relax. If opting for the latter, chances are high that you would like a hotel room with a great view. Here’s how to ensure you get one. 

Brush Up on Terminology

“Ocean view” and “oceanfront” may sound the same, but they are not. Ocean view means that, yes, you will be able to see some of the sea from your window. How much, however, is up for debate… In contrast, an oceanfront room is facing the water head-on.

Money Talks

At the end of the day, nice things usually come with a price tag… Taking a look at the price of the room you’re booking is a good indicator for what you will be getting. Expect an oceanfront room to cost more than an ocean view. 

Pick Up the Phone

If you are still unsure about which room to reserve, we recommend calling the hotel itself. After all, no one knows the rooms better than them. Explain what kind of room you’re looking for, and, you never know, sometimes they even have special deals.
