beachprincess23 Posted October 23, 2009 #1 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Has anyone stayed here before? We just booked a few nights post-cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzanne123 Posted October 23, 2009 #2 Share Posted October 23, 2009 We stayed there a few years ago. Very nice hotel with gorgeous pool area. I liked their evening buffet, but if you want to go to other restaurants, it's a bit of a walk. It was expensive when we were there in high season, and I think they tacked on a resort fee, but if I got a good price I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

fateknows Posted October 23, 2009 #3 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Has anyone stayed here before? We just booked a few nights post-cruise. Yes, we stayed there for one night before our cruise. Did you have any questions? I did enjoy it and would stay there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommyto2girls Posted October 24, 2009 #4 Share Posted October 24, 2009 We have been there many times for a week here and there..it is one of our favorite hotels. Pricey but worth the money to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachprincess23 Posted October 24, 2009 Author #5 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Great! Thanks!!! We did get a decent rate for that hotel (I think) with the buy 2, get 1 free. It looks great from the pictures, and you can't go wrong with Marriott, but I just wanted to hear from those who've stayed recently. Thanks!!

shines4 Posted October 24, 2009 #6 Share Posted October 24, 2009 We have vacationed there twice. It is a beautiful property on a private beach. I would return again anytime. The service is outstanding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted October 24, 2009 #7 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I have stayed there twice and have enjoyed my stay each time. Excellent service with a great view of the ocean, if one has an oceanview room. One can watch the early morning arrivals of the cruise ships as well as their departures. It is about a 20-30 minute walk down the beach to the inlet for Port Everglades. Be sure to try 3030 Ocean, an excellent high-end restaurant in the hotel. It is expensive, but well worth it. I enjoyed one of the best dinners that I have ever experienced during my most recent visit (March, 2009). Excellent Lobster Bisque! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3-sheets-to-the-wind Posted October 25, 2009 #8 Share Posted October 25, 2009 My DH and I are staying at this hotel on Nov. 13, 2009. Everyone that's stayed there has said it was a great hotel. I can't wait to start my vacation there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalcruz Posted October 25, 2009 #9 Share Posted October 25, 2009 It is a lovely hotel but is a far walk from anything. You can get a discount certificate for 3030 at Restaurant.com. If you aren't getting their emails, sign up now to get the coupon codes so that you can get a $25 certificate for $2 when they have the 80% off sales towards the end of each month. The certificates are good for one year. It usually costs $10 for the certificate. Today only they are $3 if you use the code PUMPKIN at checkout.

MrsFops&FopsC5 Posted October 25, 2009 #10 Share Posted October 25, 2009 We have stayed there 3 times prior to cruises, most recently last Thanksgiving. The hotel as everyone has stated is beautiful. The rooms that face the city/port you can see the ships from many of the rooms as well as the interncoastal. Personally, I like to see the city lights at night compared to seeing the dark ocean. Also, if you get up early enough you can watch the ships sail into port. The hotel is in within walking distance to a few shops and restaurants, the pool is wonderful. One thing, the staff may hassle you a bit about bringing your own alcohol down to the pool, this happened on a couple of occassions last November, but overall everyone was wonderful and friendly. Depending upon if the Dolphins are in town, the visiting teams do use this hotel. We were there a few years ago at Xmas when the Titans were staying at the property. Very cool.

3-sheets-to-the-wind Posted October 25, 2009 #11 Share Posted October 25, 2009 How's the beach at the hotel? Do you all recommend eating at 3030? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsFops&FopsC5 Posted October 26, 2009 #12 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Beach is nice, they also have cabana's that you can rent as well. Walking to the inlet is a very nice walk as is walking towards downtown. I have walked all the way past Los Osas on the beach and it was wonderful, you can just get lost watching people and the surf. Can't respond to 3030 as we have never eaten there. Enjoy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalcruz Posted October 26, 2009 #13 Share Posted October 26, 2009 There's a new code for Restaurant.com today. Use code TREATS through 10/31 to purchase a $25 gift certificate for 3030 for $2. It is a great restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
