I had a mix of experiences during my stay at the Hilton Vacation Club Riviera Beach & Shores. On the plus side, my room had an ocean view, comfy furniture, and a nice kitchenette. However, the location was a bit tricky since the beach was a 10-minute walk away across a busy road and the elevator was out of service for the first day, which made things a hassle.
