I am checking in Monday, received this e-mail today from Oceana Palms..
Dear Owners and Guests,
We have just been informed that full construction of a new resort and spa will commence in mid-January in the lot directly to the south of Marriott's Oceana Palms. Currently we are seeing site surveying, heavy machinery work, and demolition of the existing structure, and we expect this to continue for the next three weeks. We expect full construction to begin mid-January, with the first 3-4 months being the most impactful to our Owners and guests in terms of construction noise. During the initial phase, we understand that foundations of two 20-story buildings will be constructed. This process will cause significant noise to the areas surrounding the lot, including Marriott's Oceana Palms. You should be prepared for consistently loud noise coming from the adjacent site. Traffic detours may also be possible as trucks are entering and exiting the construction site.
While the construction is out of our control, we have taken steps to minimize the noise impact by adding additional outdoor seating to the north of the pool deck. We have also made enhancements to the north side of the property to include a 45 foot pitch and put golf course, two pool tables, two table shuffleboards, and a foosball table. In addition a new restaurant space is opening on the north side of the pool deck to allow for drinks and dining on the quieter side of the property. iHome™ products have been installed in every bedroom to provide you a selection of nature sounds or music while enjoying your villa. The new Check In Chill Out program will also allow you to check out noise cancelling headphones free of charge while you are on property. Our beach team also stands ready to serve you with complimentary beach chairs daily. Our concierge team will also have lists of offsite excursions and activities that will give you a great taste of all of the wonderful things Palm Beach County has to offer.
We understand the impact this may have on your travel plans and we will continue to do our best to ensure your satisfaction with Marriott's Oceana Palms. Please reach out to us directly at

Warm Regards,
Marriott's Oceana Palms Operations Team
