I've read some of the other reveiws people have left and I totally disagree with some of the comments. I've been to the beachplace towers 3 times and am leaving to go for a 4th on july 10th...The noise is NOT as bad as they make it sound. Its a vacation, which means you are suppose to kick back on these beatiful balconys and enjoy the music from the clubs at night, let me not forget to mention the live bands that come and play on stage in the mall downstairs. The front of the resort has a EXCELLENT veiw of the ocean. There is all different types of attractions around, mostly shopping unless you have a car to venture off in. The parking has never been a problem any time we've been there. Right along the street that runs in front of the resort there are excellent resturants weather your looking for a candlelit dinner with someone special or a nice family dinner. I could go on with list's of things that makes this resort a great vacation spot but i think i covered a good part of it. Overall, if your not over 80 yrs old, you will enjoy the music and veiws that this resort has to offer, and maybe even feel like your in your 20's again!! I highly recommend beachplace towers as a family/friends vacation spot. Excellent if you bring your boyfriend/girlfriend down to kids. we'll, hopefully if this makes you go to the beachplace towers, you will enjoy it as i did many times....

Just got back Sat. 5 June after spending week at BeachPlace Towers. This was the second year that we have exchanged timeshare weeks to stay in this accommodation and it was as good this time as last. We had a 2 bedroom villa (enough for 8 people) on 16th floor overlooking the waterways at the rear of the property. I requested this with them 3 days before we went on holiday as we were arriving late. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Concierge was very helpful/knowledgeable. Helped us with various directions/restaurants. Property is immaculate and is very well located - just across road from beach and minutes from waterways where you can catch water taxi. Villas are identical to Marriott Grande Vista in Orlando if that is a help to anyone. Great time was had by all.

If you know Ft. Lauderdale, this resort is in a prime location, central to everything and, more importantly, on the beach. Pros: Great villas, staff, location (location, location), views from any room, nigthlife. Cons: tight parking, traffic, noise, not child-friendly, narrow dirty beach (public), construction next store. Look, if you want a quiet, relaxing vacation, do not come here. If you want more excitement than the normal family beach vacation, then you may like this. We have two small ones and read all the reviews and tried to check in early to request a high floor, intercoastal view to avoid the construction and noise. We had to wait hours for the room, but it was worth it. Excellent views and quiet. There are at least seven bar/restaurants that turn into nightclubs just an elevator ride down from the rooms. Very lively and fun. Food and drink was good. Miami was just 30 min away and we took advantage of that too. If Cape Cod/Hilton Head is your speed - this is a definite change of pace so be prepared. If you love nightlife, then consider this your ideal vacation. Not child friendly, too much traffic and people, but much stuff to do away from Beach Place. Overall, a nice change of pace - will come back.

We stayed here in April, 2004 for a week. It was just before Easter and the place was full. We enjoyed our stay very much. The room was very good - quite large and we faced directly out over the beach - great view. Having said that the rooms that faced over the intercoastal waterway had a better view in the evening because they got the sunset and then the lights of FL, so maybe that would have been better. We were on the 10th floor and not disturbed by any noise from below. The hotel is built above a small mall and indoor parking complex, just across the road from the beach. This gives it all the problems it has. The leisure facilities are all contained on the lobby floor - there is only 1 pool and 2 whirlpools and they get very crowded when it is full. The pool really isnt big enough for this resort. It also looks like it needs a clean or its discoloured by sand not sure why. They ought to expand these facilities but there isn't any room to do so. There is a major construction going on next door but that didn't bother us - there wasn't any noise and we didn't find the view impeded us at all. The Marketplace is excellent - very large - and great Starbucks coffee and Pizza Hut pizzas. The man who runs that place is great - one of the friendliest and most helpful people I've met. He also makes great frozen cocktails. Some of his fellow workers were a lot less knowledgeable and it suffered when he wasn't there - they couldn't make an iced mocha for instance and didn't know how to make a frozen cocktail in the pool bar!!! The car parking is awful. You have to drive up to level 4 of the multi storey car park, take a ticket etc etc which gets you out free when you leave but its a hassle. The car park is very crowded and the lanes are narrow. Its quite hairraising getting up and down to the Marriott parking floor because of all the traffic moving up and down these narrow ramps. We were glad to leave because of it. The shopping mall had a lot of restaurants and bars in it - open air - and they were very popular - the live dance music went on till 4 am. I can't honestly say it disturbed us at all but I think it would do if you were on a low floor at the front. Would we come back? No. We liked the Marriott Ocean Pointe just up the coast at WPB so very much more - it was much more of a holiday resort than this. This actually felt like an urban hotel, even though it was on the beach. If you don't mind all that though, I cannot fault the facilities. The kids club was good and they seemed to be having a great time - really excellent for younger children. The gym was good. Maybe it would be better at a quieter time of the year.
