This is a beautiful beach front hotel, friendly staff. The room is spacious, clean and with comfortable mattress and pillows.
Good breakfast buffet with a variety of options.
Overall, is a great hotel to stay with family and friends.
We highly recommend it.

This was not my first stay at this property, which is why this experience was especially disappointing. From beginning to end, our stay fell far below expectations.
The first issue was a 2–3 hour delay at check-in. I do want to recognize the property manager, who was very responsive and did everything possible to assist us throughout our stay.
For this trip, I chose to pay more for a larger suite so my family would be more comfortable during our extended vacation. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the room was not clean and there were ants throughout the suite. Once again, the manager was kind enough to send someone to treat the room, but the ants kept returning. I was on vacation and did not want to spend my time repeatedly reporting the various issues
The main pool was also in poor condition, and I unfortunately injured my knee while using it. This was very upsetting and affected my ability to enjoy the rest of the trip.
Another major disappointment was the lack of children’s activities. One of the main reasons I chose this property was because of the family friendly amenities and activities for my kids. We stayed from Wednesday through Sunday, and the only day the activities were available was Saturday. Every other day, we were told there was not enough staff to operate them. My children were really looking forward to these experiences, and it was heartbreaking to see them miss out.
Overall, I expected much more based on my previous stay.

Every aspect of the stay was outstanding! It was a 70th birthday celebration for my college roommates and I, after 50+ years of friendship. We were treated like royalty in every location in the resort. The spa day experience exceeded our expectations. The staff were all top notch. I will be returning soon with family to celebrate my actual birthday. By far my favorite getaway place in the states.

We arrived late, around 8 pm, and even then, we had to wait for a room. Apparently, we were upgraded, but we ended up in the same room we had reserved. We were informed that someone needed to inspect the room before completing the check-in process. When we arrived, we found a disgusting used Q-tip under the bed. The door to the fridge was completely broken, and the bathroom was covered in black, long hairs. I have very short blonde hair. The next day, we requested that the room be cleaned thoroughly, but I guess they didn’t pass by the bathroom. We really liked the property, but since it was the 4th of July, it was uncomfortably crowded.

Hotel has good location, great pool and direct access to oceans. All this was really good but breakfast system - awful.
Coming to cafe for breakfast and evey time getting different responses from waitress what is included and what is not. We got really frustrated. I did not like persuading waitress to check better if my breakfast is incudes( it did) cause they haven’t checked properly + getting those bills every time after. I paid for breakfast already, I do not want to get any bill, even if they write me $0 or charge for smth extra not included. One of the waitress was very rude and unprofessional. I think breakfast system should change. Hotel is really nice in general.

We stayed for the Fourth of July, considering how busy the weekend was, the hotel staff were accommodating and the hotel itself had great attention detail, fun activities throughout the day and maintained it really well. The only issue we had was our room AC. It wasn’t functioning properly and never fully cooled to the desired temperature. We had asked for someone to check it out and it appeared like they did with the furniture moved. It helped a little but when I called again, no one was ever sent to look it over. We kept the AC fan on high and the room cooled down enough to sleep comfortably but definitely something to consider. I had seen a review about this issue but thought it could be a one-off situation but I see they may have outdated units or they can’t keep up with the heat. Outside of that, the amenities were great and we had a wonderful time.

We spent 4th July here and was a wonderful resort, you have no reason to leave, the staff is attentive, hospitality is a 10plus, rooms clean, beds comfortable, they have amenities for all ages and if you have kids they really cater to them, the food was good and bars are everywhere were already booming for next year. The firework show for lauderdale could have done better we spent last year on Hollywood beach and their firework show was so much better but the hotel has nothing g to do with that. The hotel also offers a very nice 4th July celebration it is extra but very nice.

Charged a ridiculous deposit. $1500 for 4 nights. We prepaid the room $1649. Never gave me an explanation for it. Room only cleaned one time as she was busy and kept coming at 4 pm when we were getting ready to go out for the evening. Add tips 20% and then the staff begs for more. The beach guy was annoying day one $150 for a daybed on the beach on Sunday it was $350 for the same bed. Food is marginal and its the same food in all restaurants. We had to leave to get something ethnic to Ft. Lauderdale and none gave us any direction on where to go!! Bellman was great and helpful. They only help you if you are an elite member...….. I am a bonvoy member but that did not matter and I used Expedia. I was not on the same level as other guests. I would remove them from your site.

We planned to stay here and paid extra for a nice place on the beach. We thought with the upfront payment for the hotel stay, the Marriott would take care of us but we were wrong. The beach crew nickle and dimed us for an umbrella and other items. Staff in the beach hut seemed annoyed at helping us. The restaurants on site were also very expensive. We paid more for food than we did for the hotel. The room and hotel were very well maintained, gym was great, pools and splashed were great for the kids. Beach was one of the best. Just disappointed at all the extra cost we accrued while staying here.

We really liked this hotel. The staff were all friendly and helpful. A few things I didn’t like. We had tiny little red ants in our room, mainly in the bathroom. No free WiFi and no complimentary water for the room. Traveling with two little kids made that a little challenging. Will we come back though? Yes, definitely. The resort had a lot of amenities for the kids. The workout room had everything we needed and more! Had most of our lunches from Sea Breeze restaurant and not once disappointed. The pool was perfect for kids and adults and the beach was easy access. Marina Village is walking distance, approximately 15 mins. I suggest taking an Uber and dining at Coconuts. Our waiter Lucas was the best! Till next time!

The hotel was very understaffed - long waits at the front desk and in restaurants. Our room had a leaky faucet and we woke up to a flooded bathroom at 4am. We were the ones who cleaned up the water, took a picture of the broken faucet, and notified staff. No help, no apology, no thank you. This was the worst Marriot I have experienced.

We recently stayed at the Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort for a family vacation with our two children (ages 8 and 4), and we had a wonderful time! The weather was absolutely perfect, which made enjoying the resort's amazing amenities even better.

We really loved the convenience of having everything full-service right on the property. Having multiple restaurants, a Starbucks, and a bar onsite made dining and grabbing drinks so incredibly easy while managing two young kids. Also, our 4 year old had buffet breakfast for free as long as we ordered an adult meal or buffet.

The only minor heads-up for future guests is regarding the beach setup. While the beach chairs are conveniently included in the daily resort fee, keep in mind that the beach umbrella rentals are an additional out-of-pocket cost.

Overall, we had a beautiful, relaxing stay and would highly recommend this resort to other families looking for an upscale, convenient beach getaway.

Overall mixed views. Location by the beach was great. Facilities were good for the price point (gym above average). Staff were excellent and very helpful particularly in accompanying a late checkout free of charge and also moving our room due to a noisy ice machine. We had two main issues: 1) We didn’t have a single uninterrupted nights sleep (noisy ice machine, noisy fridge, very heavy and therefore extremely noisy doors from adjacent rooms). 2) There are a lot of extras you have to pay for which should be included. Two examples: parasols on the beach and beds by the pool which was super frustrating if the free ones were all taken. Also the staff frequently reminded us to tip them - adding to the sense that we’re were constantly being fleeced for money

I was very disappointed with my stay. The room was not clean and did not feel pleasant at all. The corridor was in terrible condition, with garbage left on the floor, which created an overall negative first impression.

The pool area was overcrowded, making it difficult to enjoy, and I was surprised to be asked to pay extra for chairs near the pool, even though they belong to the hotel. Considering the high price I paid for the room, this felt unreasonable.

Additionally, the room lacked basic amenities such as minibar items, and charging $8 for a bottle of water felt excessive. While breakfast was decent and the restaurant was acceptable, neither stood out as particularly great.

Overall, I expected much better service, cleanliness, and amenities for the price of this hotel. Unfortunately, this experience did not meet expectations, and I will not be returning.

We loved our stay however had a few issues. Huge crack in the tile as you entered the room. Not what you'd expect. Also paid a lot of $ for a check in at 4 and had to be out by 11 the next day. I was told that it was an extra $100 to have our check out moved to 2:00. I think that $100 may have turned into $300+ with extra taxes and fees but need to double check that. I just know that my checkout was $300+
