Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The beautiful rooms were not available until the actual listed check-in time, which was understandable due to the hotel's popularity. The hotel is great for those who don't mind missing out on a balcony view.
The hotel was incredibly clean and made me feel comfortable with its rooms all having balconies for a cozy experience. The friendly and hard-working service staff enhanced my stay, although the location was a bit distant from the lively Ft. Lauderdale strip. The dining options varied from very nice and rich breakfast to an excellent buffet deal at $18. The facilities were satisfying overall.
The hotel offers very comfortable rooms with 'spa' shower products but the views are not as nice since it's near the parking lot in the back. The service was great overall with friendly staff, though there were minor issues with two bellmen. The location is very good with child-friendly surroundings near a semi-private beach but not within walking distance to the tourist area. Dining was a mix with good food but not worth the high price. Overall, it's a recommended stay for its comfort and service.
The hotel offers a perfect view of the beach and pool from the nice and big room. It was spacious for a family of four, clean but in need of a renovation. The service was overall friendly but with a few inconsistencies. The location is beautiful, although some cleanliness issues were noted. Dining options were varied and delicious. The facilities were adequate but might benefit from some upgrades.
The hotel offers great rooms with a living room, kitchenette, and a nice-size bedroom with comfortable beds. The location is convenient near the parking lot in the back. The service is top-notch, with staff being super polite and meeting every need and request graciously.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a living room, kitchenette, and comfy beds, though the air circulation could be better. The view of the beach and pool is perfect. The staff is attentive and friendly, maintaining high standards. The location is wonderful, right on the beach, making it child-friendly. The breakfast buffet is good but could offer more, priced at around $18-20 per person.
