• My stay was a positive one.
• Hotel parking should be free, no matter the location.

“Loved the hotel location. It's a short-ride to and from the airport and it's right on the Beach. My family and I booked this hotel via an airlines getaway promotion. As one of the reviewers pointed out it is rather expensive, they charge for amenities that should come with the cost such as Parking and Internet. For parking you have the choice of valet at $25 per day + tipping each time and self parking in the hotel underground area at $22.00 a day. The per nightly cost posted on the room door was $800 ; but we did have ocean view (maybe that's why?). The restaurants are quite pricey. Overall, I agree with another reviewer they should provide shuttle services to local areas, such as to the main street. It is a bit away from any locations for picking up a quick bite, or some place to stroll after the beach is closed. Bottom line if you want to stay only on the Beach it's great. Want to see the rest of the area rent a car.”

• Beautiful private beach
• Fees charged for almost everything. The expensive overnight price should cover more things.

“Nice hotel. Beautiful setting. Many of the amenities cost extra though. They brag about their spa, but it costs $30 just to have the privilege to use the spa swimming pool or eat at the restaurant (the meal costs extra). Also, no shuttle service available for any short trips, and the airport is only a few miles away. If you charge hundreds of dollars per night, you should provide the extras without cost.”

• Location,beaches,layout,landscape,willingness to please.
• Room service food was mediocre, expensive and portions were tiny.

“The Spa was okay and one employee tried to steal a piece of jewelry and was caught. I spent $240.00 on one of their premier treatments and the therapist talked the whole time and was sloppy and unprofessional. My recommendation is to speak up if the expensive treatments are not to the highest professional standards. Overall the service was excellent, the hotel is beautiful and the location is superb. very short cab rides to the best of Las Olas shopping, access to the water taxi across the street. The galleria Mall is a few miles away. The beaches were well maintained,clean & beautiful and the access from the pool area is very easy with several walkways. The locker rooms at the pool facility were very nice and the food service at the pool was excellent and was better than the hotel food. The valet area was always on the ball and very helpful. This is definately the place to stay on Ft. Lauderdale beach. I toured the Marriott Beach Place Property and there was no comparison with Harbour beach. ”

• great location - could get by w/o a car
• hard to find something I disliked

“If you are looking for an easy drive from the 0airport, beautiful accommodations on a great beach w/fun restaurants within walking/taxi distance, this is the place for a quick get-away from cold NYC.”

• Beautiful pool and great spa

“It was a very nice hotel & spa. The spa was great. We didn't eat at the restaurant but did use room service and the food was good. The room was average. The staff was very nice & helpful. It would be nice if this hotel offered a free shuttle to and from the airport.”
