I’m sure they both have the same brand standards but the hard products (and prices) are poles apart. It’s nice to see Four Seasons giving some love to their older properties in great locations that have started to lag behind. For example, Four Seasons Palm Beach where I stayed last week (thanks @BESVISOR!) is one of the older properties which is being brought up to the same standard as Four Seasons at the Surf Club. They’re using the same pool deck designers and similar interior design schemes and it’s looking fabulous. The service was absolutely on point as well - Four Seasons at its very best. We were lucky enough to stay in one of the newly refurbished suites and it’s a really comprehensive refurbishment - totally redone.
That's because FS Surf Club and Palm beach have the same owner.
