The buzziest place to stay in Palm Beach is the masterfully refreshed, pink paradise that is The Colony Hotel. The playful design harkens back to the Tiki era with wicker furniture, global influences, and hand-painted wallpaper featuring animal scenes and the property's playful mascot Johnnie Brown (a monkey named after the pet of famous architect Addison Mizner) with a martini in hand—it feels like walking into a White Lotus opening theme. Each of the historic property's 89 rooms is custom designed to make the style set of Worth Avenue (which is just paces away) feel at home. But you won't spend too much time in your room, as the onsite restaurant Swifty's is the place to see-and-be-seen enjoying crisp rosé and live music.
