Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa

The beach is very, very nice, It is almost a private beach so it was never crowded and you always had your chairs (included in the resort fee). So this experience was very nice. We liked the large pool which had always good space in and around with nice chairs easy to find with no one on them. Breakfast was a very good with very friendly waiters.

The view, we were on the second floor, ocean view. There was a very present rooftop in front of us, even though we could see the ocean. The balcony was very dirty, and it seemed that the room had not been sweeped before our arrival. The bed was arranged in a rush. Not everything was neat. The parking space was very expensive, so we decided not to have a car.

it had everything. great bar, nice pool, lovely big clean bright rooms with comfy beds

it’s on the far end of the hotel strip a bit further away from restaurants but that does make it a bit quieter and away from some of the rougher bits

Pool area and beach were spotless, rooms and bathrooms were a great size and having a balcony was a plus , just some advice which has nothing to do with the property ....BE VERY CAREFUL re: taxi , ubers and drivers that are NOT affiliated with the hotel. We got bamboozled out of money several times , meters turned upside down , " short cuts " that were longer ....and made up fares especially when it was only women in the taxi....just be aware.

My friends were staying at a resort nearby, their place wasn’t clean, had weak showers, and ridiculous fees considering that The Marriott Harbor is extremely clean, has great water pressure, and the fees are the same. There is a lot to do nearby, and it is literally right on the beach. You could vacation here and never leave the premises.

It is expensive to park. $45 a day for valet and I think $40 for self park. The. alert is worth the extra few bucks, but I’d rather have my parking included in my room charges. Even if I was paying basically the same amount I wouldn’t know it. Getting the daily charge kind of sucks.

Excellent facilities - never felt over crowded. Very nice patrons in addition to the staff who delivered beyond excellence in guest service. Friendly and genuine in their desire to deliver great service. Lobby staff in particular, extremely positive and cheery!

I think the breakfast buffet could offer a broader selection of hot foods - felt a little limited and also the same if you are staying more than a couple of nights. Be nice to mix it up a little through the week.

The room had no tub even though we were nicely upgraded due to an initially bad room. The beds were OK much different than my hybrid bed at home so the beds were OK. Starbucks in the hotel lobby area breakfast ( the impossible breakfast sandwich and latte ) was very good you just have to go down by 7:00 or the line gets long quickly. The pool bar has a nice seafood salad but if you want to get spa book as soon as you arrive, the spa was booked up with the hotel sold out. Nice gym and never felt crowded even though the hotel was sold out. Nice pool a little coney island but still nice. I would stay again because we were treated well and no surprises on our bill when we checked out.

The room was large and very clean. The beach was top-notch. Staff was exceedingly friendly and helpful.

There weren't enough free lounge chairs around the pool. If you don't get to the pool early and reserve a free lounge chair, you have to pay extra for one in the reserved section.

We liked having several options for breakfast. Convenience to restaurants we chose.

Since we were a party of 10, it should be required for staff at dining areas to mention that a 20% gratuity was already added to the bill. That was the only down side of our visit. Only once was it stamped in red on the bill and then after we could check for it.

Nice pool area, clean rooms w/ awesome shower, great proximity to airport.

Umbrella situation on the beach is weird. You have to pay to rent an umbrella & beach staff took one of ours away after we paid for it. Two employees thought we didnt pay which was annoying.

The staff and the layout of the hotel was nice. I was there during the hurricane and didn’t get to enjoy the pool and beach.

The hotel did not have a shuttle service to and from airport
