We’ve already reviewed the cheapest Four Seasons hotels in the world. Now, we investigate the cheapest Four Seasons beach hotels & resorts. The cheapest beach resorts are probably in Asia, but we include some bargains closer to home, which are ideal for families who want to paddle and build sandcastles and couples who want to relax next to the shoreline. We pick the best Four Seasons Four Seasons hotels with beaches below.
It’s worth noting that there is no Four Seasons rewards program. However, you can take advantage of loyalty style benefits at Four Seasons hotels for no extra cost by booking your next stay via our luxury travel concierge.
1. Four Seasons Langkawi
Four Seasons Langkawi is one of the cheapest Four Seasons in Asia and is also one of the cheapest Four Seasons beach resorts. Langkawi is a tropical island paradise in Northern Malaysia, with white sandy beaches, dense jungle, fascinating wildlife, and delicious food.
The key to Four Seasons Langkawi is partly in the numbers. Forty-eight acres and 91 rooms. There are a heck of a lot of beaches and very few people. Malaysian people are the secret ingredient. They love life (and especially food) and take the responsibility of hospitality very seriously. They smile a lot. The staff at Four Seasons Langkawi are simply amazing when it comes to remembering how you like your coffee, your favorite wine, and where you like to sit.
Four Seasons Langkawi offers all the services expected from a 5-star resort hotel. Three restaurants, bars, a spa, gym, tennis courts, water sports, and swimming pools, including an adults-only quiet pool with private cabanas. We loved the poolside service, with mini treats like frozen watermelon and strawberry smoothies offered every 30 minutes. There are a few nice surprises, like the complimentary bike hire (48 acres, remember) and the ping-pong tables. But it is the acres of empty beach here that encourage guests to choose this hotel as their beach destination. That and the fact that for a Four Seasons beach hotel, this property is shockingly good value.
Due to thunderstorms and rainfall, September to October is the low season in Langkawi. But the rain usually lasts only a couple of hours, so this time of the year can still be a brilliant time to visit. To find the cheapest rate here, our luxury travel concierge can list the rates for each day in the month that you want to travel. Expect to pay around 1,717 YR per night in October, which is around $365 USD at the time of writing.
2. Four Seasons Bali Jimbaran Bay
Four Seasons Bali Jimbaran Bay is the Four Seasons in Bali on the beach. Sheltered in a calm bay along three miles of sand, these breezy Four Seasons villas channel an authentic Balinese village. This is a brilliant Four Seasons beach resort for families with unforgettable views, authentic arts offerings, and a picture-perfect beach. In November, rates here start at around 10,688,333 IDR at the time of writing, which equates to $690 USD and is an absolute steal for this beautiful beach resort.
3. Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale
Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale is usually the cheapest Four Seasons beach resort on American soil. This hotel emanates a modern yacht club lifestyle. Four Seasons presents 189 accommodations, including 19 suites and 41 Hotel Residences, all with Atlantic Ocean or Intracoastal views, with a prime beachfront address including unrivaled style and service.
This Four Seasons set up smart navy blue padded loungers sheltered by navy blue parasols on the snow-white strip of sand that sits at the far end of the pool. From here, you can laze, paddle, or swim off their patch of sand, just steps from the hotel and your room.
You can also relax in their spa or rise above to the third-floor Ocean Terrace for dining and lounging beside two horizon-edge pools. Moments away, experience the city’s best shops, restaurants, marinas, and entertainment.
Pricing at this gorgeous resort in December starts at around $765 USD, so this hotel is definitely one of the cheapest Four Seasons beach resorts.
4. Four Seasons Grand Hotel Du Cap Ferrat
Four Seasons Grand Hotel Du Cap Ferrat is one of the best Four Seasons hotels in Europe and is actually one of the most expensive Four Seasons hotels in the world in the summer, but in March, April, October, and November, just before it closes for the winter, you can sometimes bag a night for under €800 EUR and at that price, this hotel is worth every penny.
This discounted pricing only happens because the Cote D’Azur is completely seasonal. The key is to stay just before it closes or just after it opens. You can snag a room here for the super low price of €800 EUR per night at the start of November and at the end of March. There is, however, a catch. Their beach club, “Club Dauphine,” also shuts for the winter and usually opens in late March and closes in late October, so please do check the beach club dates before your stay. If the beach club isn’t open, there is nowhere to swim.
There is a second catch, too. The beach club does not offer any sandy shores. It’s a beautiful pool area on a rocky peninsula, so while you can swim next to the sea if you want a beach, you need to drive 5 minutes to the nearest village to dip your feet in the sand.
If you can tolerate using the beach club rather than a beach, this Four Seasons is simply one of the best luxury hotels in the world. If I were a billionaire, I would spend a whole month of every summer in one of its beautiful suites with its own private pool. As I’m not, we book low season rates and enjoy the hotel, including its beach club, outside the main season for a steal. In fact, I hesitate to share this gem with you as I don’t want the out-of-season rates to creep up!
Even the standard rooms are fantastic here, with stylish modern rooms, comfy beds, and views over pine trees or across to the deep blue Mediterranean. The gardens are stunning. There is not a leaf out of place; the views are magnificent; the pool is enormous; the entire resort is almost unbelievably perfect.
This hotel is undoubtedly one of the best Four Seasons in the world. It is perfection in the balmy summer with high prices to match, but in the cooler spring and autumn, it has some of the best deals of any Four Seasons hotel around the world while still being a fantastic place to stay.
Four Seasons Grand Hotel Du Cap Ferrat is one of the most expensive Four Seasons hotels in the world, but if you are prepared to stay there in the low season, nights start at €800 EUR rather than the eyewatering €2,500 EUR in the summer, you can enjoy a slice of luxury for less.
5. Four Seasons Koh Samui
Four Seasons Koh Samui is not one of the cheapest Four Seasons resorts in Asia, but if you are after a beach, it’s definitely one of the best. Set on a pristine sandy beach bordered by tropical greenery and calm blue seas. Highlights here include lounging by the infinity pool with a cool drink and relaxing on your private deck overlooking the idyllic Gulf of Siam. This Four Seasons is one of the cheaper Four Seasons beach resorts, with rates starting at around 38,124 THB per night, which equates to just over $1000 USD per night.
6. Four Seasons Costa Rica
Tucked at the very tip of a beautiful Peninsula on the western coast of Costa Rica, you’ll find the beach resort of Four Seasons Costa Rica. The hotel offers impressive architecture, a huge open lobby, two huge freeform swimming pools, and two sandy beaches within steps of each other. At this resort, each beach has a different purpose. One of the bays is much calmer with more sheltered waters, so it’s perfect for water sports. The other beach takes in beautiful views across to the Santa Rosa National Park and was our favorite spot to grab a lounger, really relax, and soak up those views.
For families, the hotel is just perfect too. Four Seasons are well known for welcoming their little guests just as well as the full-size ones, and Four Seasons Costa Rica certainly outdid themselves in this regard. The Kids For All Seasons kids club was just fabulous. When they found out they had their very own (very shallow!) kids-only pool, complete with miniature sun loungers, our children knew they’d found their happy place!
Golf carts drive you around this resort, which is an absolute highlight for our children. The drivers are just charm personified, and when they offered to take us up to find the monkeys. Of course, we said yes. We got lucky, and he found two mums with their babies playing in the trees, a magical sight we’ll never forget. Wildlife was a big part of our time here and the monkeys. There are so many lizards, you share breakfast with the tropical birds, and our favorite was the Coati, a member of the raccoon family, who had clearly had the Four Seasons service training.
For a taste of paradise in truly tropical surroundings where the ocean and wildlife become just as much a part of your stay as the welcoming service, wonderful facilities, and delicious food and drink, you’d struggle to do any better than the stunning Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica.
Pricing at this gorgeous resort in December starts at around $1,295 USD, so there is no argument that this is one of the best and cheapest Four Seasons beach resorts.
7. Four Seasons Resort Oahu
Four Seasons Resort Oahu sits amongst the best Four Seasons in Hawaii and tends to be the cheapest Four Seasons hotel in Hawaii. It is a smidge cheaper than their Maui property and represents a great deal for this caliber of hotel in the Hawaiian Islands.
The trick in Hawaii, whichever Four Seasons you book into, is to book in advance so that the base rooms are still available. If you leave it to the last minute, you may be left having to book the ocean view rooms, which can be a lot more expensive. Also, look out for offers on each property’s homepage and then book through our luxury concierge to get all our complimentary benefits.
Four Seasons actually has five exclusive hotels in Hawaii: Four Seasons Hualalai (on Big Island), Four Seasons Lanai, Lanai at Koele, Four Seasons Maui at Wailea, and the Four Seasons Oahu at Ko Olina. Prices vary wildly at Four Seasons Oahu, so it is worth choosing the time of year that you make your visit with precision to optimize your stay. It is only by combining the cheapest time of year with the cheapest of these Four Seasons hotels and by booking special offers in advance you will secure the best deal.
We reccomend looking to stay in early December before the Christmas and New Year rush. At the time of writing, prices in early December start at around $1,110 USD per night.
8. Four Seasons Los Cabos At Costa Palmas, Mexico
Four Seasons Los Cabos is located on the East Cape, on the warm, crystal-clear waters of the Sea of Cortez, offers a brilliant beach, excellent snorkeling and diving, some of the world’s best light tackle and sport fishing, and world-class windsurfing and kiteboarding. The idyllic setting at the base of the Sierra de la Laguna Mountains also offers endless opportunities for land adventure, from hiking, biking, and horseback riding to exploring waterfalls, spring-fed freshwater pools, and hot springs.
Four Seasons Los Cabos At Costa Palmas encompasses over two miles of beach, and this beach is much calmer than the beach facing the Pacific, enjoyed by many of the luxury hotels in Los Cabos. This beach is perfect for families. This is why we think this is the best luxury hotel in Los Cabos vs. Las Ventanas or One & Only Palmilla. Add in the views of the Sierra de la Laguna mountain range, which the resort is designed to take advantage of, and you will be hard-pressed to find a more ridiculously romantic luxury hotel in Los Cabos or the world.
My favorite rooms at Four Seasons Los Cabos are, in fact, on the ground floor, and many feature private plunge pools. The ground-floor beach rooms, which are steps from the shore, are particularly good for families as the kids can rush out onto the beach first thing in the morning.
Prices here start at around $1,000 USD in early December, and for a room with direct beach access and a plunge pool, your price is $1667 USD at the time of writing. If you book this rate, you will book one of the few rooms in the Four Seasons portfolio with direct beach access.
9. Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach
Four Seasons Palm Beach, much like Miami’s Surfside, is right on a glorious golden sand beach. Palm Beach is a playground for the rich, with names like Kennedy and Astor as regular guests. This boutique resort on Florida’s east coast is the ultimate getaway for anyone who likes shopping at trendy boutiques, golfing on world-class courses, pampering at the spa, or sipping cocktails in a beachfront cabana. Try to stay for the annual sea turtle hatchings.
Four Seasons Palm Beach remains Palm Beach Island’s only Five-Star, Five-Diamond resort. With 47 miles of pristine golden beaches, Palm Beach, Florida, has a setting for everyone, from romantically private stretches of sand to family-friendly beaches with playgrounds, nature centers, and beach parks that offer snorkeling, wind sailing, fishing, or paddleboarding. A key feature of this newly refurbished resort is the two pools, one for families and the other second pool for adults only. Catch a gleeful glimpse of a loggerhead turtle, or relax in a cabana with the complimentary service of personal beach staff at Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach.
Pricing here starts at just under $1,000 per night in early December, and in terms of beach, this hotel is hard to beat.
10. Four Seasons Resort Nevis
Four Seasons Nevis is one of the best Four Seasons in the Caribbean and is located along the stunning Pinney’s beach, the most beautiful beach on Nevis. A vast array of facilities, including golf, spa, watersports, and a fantastic children’s club, make this one of the best hotels for families with children in the Caribbean.
From the moment you catch a glimpse of the iconic Nevis Peak upon arrival, you will become enveloped by the lush surroundings, with the sound of palm trees swaying in the wind and the feel of sugar-soft sand between your toes.
Four Seasons Resort Nevis has been busy re-envisioning guest rooms and suites and updating the look of the Great House lobby. The resort’s signature pool was recently reconstructed and raised to create one long sightline from the Great House lobby straight out to the Caribbean Sea horizon. This makes it an incredible spot.
The best things about The Four Seasons Resort Nevis include the grounds that stretch down to a sugary white beach lined with palm trees, and the infinity pool is incredible. You can even enjoy a special candlelit dinner for two on the sand at your personal beach cabana. A romantic beachside dinner will be served by personal waitstaff, along with a special menu.
Pricing here starts at just under $1,000 USD per night in early December, and this hotel is hard to beat in terms of the beach.
