The Hampton Inn Jacksonville Beach/Oceanfront delivers 177 rooms with balconies facing the Atlantic, two pools (one a 120-foot heated pool), free hot breakfast, and free parking. It is the value floor for the Sawgrass destination that holds onto an oceanfront position rather than retreating inland to find a lower rate.
The drive to TPC Sawgrass runs around 20 minutes, the same as the Casa Marina, and Jacksonville Beach's central position between Ponte Vedra and Amelia Island makes this a workable base for trips covering the full destination footprint. The property lacks the resort integration of the Marriott or Omni and the boutique character of the Casa Marina. It is a well-run Hilton-branded hotel that does what it promises.
$140 to $220 nightly. For a foursome splitting two rooms at $140, you're at $35 per person for an oceanfront room with breakfast included. The savings against the Marriott (which runs $300 to $550) are large enough to fund an additional round of golf or an upgrade from Dye's Valley to TPC Sawgrass Stadium Course.
