Upholding the lifestyles of the rich and famous in Palm Beach is the Brazilian Court. With its classic Mediterranean style and serene atmosphere, this boutique hotel, built in the peak of the Florida land boom in 1926, offers guests incomparable privacy and comfort. The ambiance is at once intimate and breezy, with a full view from the lobby's wall of French doors of the hotel's flower-filled signature courtyard and historic fountain.

Moments from the Atlantic Ocean beaches, the Brazilian Court is nestled on a palm-lined street within a tranquil residential neighborhood just steps north of Worth Avenue, and a short distance from an array of famed restaurants, galleries and museums. Its 108 rooms and suites feature vivid yellows, floral fabrics and soft lighting, and all have been modernized to include a custom kitchenette or wet bar, coffee maker, hair dryers, VCRs and cable television--with access to the hotel's beauty salon, heated swimming pool, fitness center and spa services. An attentive concierge team will help you practice your conversational Spanish, French, Italian or German, or secure your reservations at Palm Beach's upscale restaurants.

A member of the Preferred Hotels & Resorts Worldwide and a winner of the Five Star Diamond Award from the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences, the Brazilian Court also is home to the DiRoNA Award-winning restaurant, Chancellor, which serves international cuisine and Florida specialties such as potato-crusted snapper or littleneck clams and mussels for dinner, and also serves lunch and breakfast. For an afternoon salad or an evening dining under the stars, guests also can enjoy the tropical Fountain Courtyard--or stop in the classic Windsor Lounge for a dry martini.

Upscale social events and meetings from client presentations to a college graduation party--or simply coffee--for up to 200 people are facilitated through six dedicated rooms and two two-story town houses with private boardrooms, full office services and sleeping accommodations designed to meet the needs of meeting planners and executives.
