“Brief stay but enjoyable”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 2, 2013

My bridesmaids and I stayed here the first night of my bachelorette weekend. The staff was friendly and we were upgraded to a fantastic suite. The breakfast selection was great and their spa sounded pretty nice as well. We didn't get a chance to visit, unfortunately. Great place for family!

“Staff are great and rooms are wonderful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 30, 2012

-great location right on the beach, but no restaurants within walking distance
-beautiful beach with watercraft rentals right behind the hotel
-staff was cheerful and helpful
-there is a restaurant on the premises but no outdoor areas and no entertainment. We ate at a tiki bar at the hotel next door which offered entertainment in the evenings.
-rooms were large and comfortable, but have to haggle the price.
-i would recommend this hotel for a quiet relaxing beach holiday.
-the breakfast which is included in the price has a good selection and is fresh.
-balconies are small. Will hold only 2 people

Room Tip: -you can see the ocean from the balconies on both sides of the hotel, so there isn't really a ba...

“Great stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 22, 2012

This hotel brings value for money. Big rooms, good service, clean, own kitchen (restaurant down stairs), parking, sofas, balcony -its all there.. But, make sure you do NOT have a room number ending with x07 because you will then hear the elevator all night. Hotel s just by the beach.

“A Nice Marriott on the beach”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 20, 2012

Extremely clean room, excellent bed linens as always in Marriotts.

Not such a great view of the ugly roof of the building to the south of our room; tiny balcony. TV is in bad location in room that is difficult to view from bed at night. Nice little kitchen, nice sized bathroom, great towels, excellent housekeeping service; very wonderful employees, outstanding free, hot breakfast, very nice bistro with good food and excellent service.

Two pools, nice and quiet. All footsteps from the beach.

Beautiful interiors.

Excellent, top of the line spa and health club amenities!

Very recommended!!!!

“Great Beach Vacation!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 17, 2012

My family stayed at this hotel to visit our grandmother, and we were pleasantly surprised!!! Not only are the rooms extremely nice with beautiful ocean views, but they have a wonderful workout facility and a spa where you can get massages!! In addition, the staff, and manager Michael Hutchins were so kind to my 6 year old son!! We let them know we were on our way to Disneyworld and needed some advice. They took their time to give us useful suggestions and great advice!! I would not stay anywhere else. We are definitly coming back!!!!!
