We were disappointed with this property. I've stayed at many Marriott (I'm a gold member!) properties and this one does not meet the standards typically found with the Marriott name. Like the below review....we were put in room 803, after we asked to be moved from the first room (602) they stuck us in .....Which had a really bad smell.... More

We spent two weeks here in a top-floor, two-bedroom suite. Couldn't use our Marriott points because they apparently won't apply them to two-room suites. No matter. It was a very nice stay at this excellent -- but somewhat quirky -- Residence Inn. Pros: - Wonderful beach location. - Very roomy two-room suite. - Great free breakfasts. - Extremely friendly staff,... More

Awesome views. Clean rooms. Service was slow at times. Breakfast was really good. Beach chairs were nice. Parking is a rip off. $20 extra and no other options unless you want to chance street parking a couple blocks away. More

My family loved this beachfront hotel! Management and staff were all very nice and helpful, breakfast was outstanding, and the beachfront setting doesn't get any better. We liked the fact that pets are allowed since we usually travel with our dog. We stayed in a suite on the 8th floor that had a living room area, 2 full bathrooms, a... More

Our family absolutely loved our 2 week January stay at this hotel. Our 2nd story 2-bedroom condo had a spectacular view of the beach, overlooking the pool , with a separate balcony for each room. The room were spacious,well decorated and quiet. Breakfast buffet allowed many options for dining, including the oceanview restaurant, the general breakfast area or outdoor oceanview... More

I used Marriots rewards to book this hotel. We arrived on a late flight in Fort Lauderdale. It was an easy drive to the hotel. I did not see the fee of $19 for parking. (plus $1.03 tax) while booking. Since my room was free this was not significant. We had a room on the 10th floor with a dazzeling... More

This hotel has great potential, but has serious management problems. The location is nice with easy access to the beach. The rooms are nice and spacious with nice views and private balconies. The complimentary breakfast is a plus. However, all of these positives become quickly overshadowed by the fact this place has terrible customer service. We had several encounters with... More

Just wanted to write a review and say that this property and staff were outstanding! Went for a girl's trip and booked the "wine and dine" package! It was wonderful! Rec'd a bottle of wine upon arrival, had free buffet breakfasts, which is included, even if you don't have a package. The food at the hotel was great! The entire... More

I traveled with a college team of 39 swimmers and we were not disappointed with our stay at the Residence Inn. The breakfast was more than adequate, which many healthy options. Having kitchens is a real plus, but we did have two team dinners which we were not only affordable, but tasty! The property is right on the beach, and... More
