Ever been to The Hilton?

I have to decide between two outdoor locations for my reception. There is the Sun Fun Hut that over looks the ocean or the Dolphin Terrace which is next to a pool.

 

Which? The ocean view sounds lovely, but the picture of the Dolphin Terrace is gorgeous.

Has anyone seen them both?

We hung out at the Hilton one day of our honeymoon and I thought I remembered seeing the Whale Watching Terrace which is like one level below the pool and closer to the beach. Is that an option? I wasn't totally paying attention so I could be wrong though....but I think I saw them setting up an event there and I remember thinking it was perfect for a wedding.

I have seen both - both have an ocean view but the terrace sits higher and close to the hotel structure - the other is further away from thev builings of the hotel. How many people are you having? Dinner and dancing? Both are great but I need more info to give you an honnest opinion

I agree with Sarah both locations are great. We are having our cocktail hour at the SunFun Hut and moving onto the Dolphin Terrace for our reception. I believe from the map both locations are a bit more private because they are further from the main building.

I have been to Hilton too! My ceremony and cocktail reception are on the sand and the reception at the Sun Fun Hut (We are having 40-50 guests). They are both nice but it depends on what you are looking for. The Sun Fun Hut is off to the side away from the main pool. There is a pool by the Sun Fun Hut but it is closed when weddings are in progress...at least the two weddings I witnessed while I was there...they closed down the area.

 

The wedding reception I did see at the Dolphin Terrace is right below the main pool. They do not close the main pool and there are alot of lookie-lu's hanging over the edge of the infinity pool. The Dolphin Terrace is the middle of the hotel grounds..kind of.

 

They both have great views.

Thanks ladies.

 

This will help.

We are doing our cocktail reception at the Dolphin Terrace and then our reception at the Sun Fun Hut. The Whale Watching Terrace is really nice. When the pool is closed (during your reception) it will be more private. There was a wedding when we visited there and it was nice.

I've stayed there a few times (love it there, btw - you're going to be so happy with your choice).

 

Please make sure that they verify that the location that you are selecting will be closed to the public. There is an area that is just below the pool. It's really pretty and i loved the idea of the sound of the water coming over the pool. However, they wouldn't close the area off and it's adjacent to the mail beach access path so people would be walking by and people would still be in the pool right next to where you and your guests.
