Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa

Fort Lauderdale, Gold Coast Beaches

Star rating

The hotel

Your very own beach retreat in ever-cool Fort Lauderdale, this sand-skirting sanctuary rubs shoulders with a private stretch of powdery sand. A lagoon pool and palm-peppered sun terrace ease you gently down to the ocean, where you can rent boogie boards, kayaks, and snorkelling gear (when the children aren’t living it up at their Surf Club). Its seaside spot’s also celebrated in the dining at Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa – with the fresh local seafood of 3030 Ocean Restaurant & Bar, the Floridian fare enjoyed on Sea Level Restaurant’s surf-side dining deck, and the option for barefoot dining on the beach.

Very accommodating and friendly staff. Clean and spacious room. The only negative is that there was no personal use safe in our room.

Dear Harbor Beach Team, I am a regular at the Club side section of the Beach and I wish to express my gratitude to Jean for exceptional service. I really appreciate how considerate, cheerful, and efficient and cordial he is. It is always a pleasure to experience his superior customer service--especially as, for us regulars, he has a longer sprint that usual between the Loggerhead kitchen and where we sit. He is simply wonderful. And his charm and courtesy enhances the ambiance of this 'a la fresco' beachside restaurant... Thank you, Jean. Also, I might add, Jean's superior service is a testament to the highly-functional team that support the service. My thanks to Calvin and Ralph for their always, solicitous care. And, as always, I truly appreciate the jovial, good-humored service that our friend Ben always greets us with as he sets us up every weekend. It is always a treat to engage with this team. Thank you, Jean, Calvin, Ralph, and Ben! Cheers! Read less

Gentleman at check-in was lovely. He honored our status and was able to provide an upgrade; however the room wasn’t going to be ready until 4pm (which was fine). Problem was a storm started. With 2 young kids and a few hours to spare, we were directed outside in the thunderstorm to the kids club (that was locked). A woman even walked us 1/2 way there. This was frightening. We finally got into our room. It was a standard looking room - (ocean view was fantastic). Beds were super comfortable but towels were old, stained and thin. We were given late check- out. I got the portfolio early morning - and they charged us for wifi. I called and they removed the charge as it was in error. We purposely put breakfast on the credit card so the bill would not change. We walked to the beach. We said we just needed towels as we were only staying a few minutes. Surprise! We got charged for an umbrella. I never signed for anything like the day before, so I requested a refund. Surprise, they also charged us for wifi again! I’ve called a few times to get these charges reversed and I am still waiting for a call back. Great way to leave a bad taste in my mouth - bad enough they charge for everything ($60 + tax / day for valet, $30+ for beach umbrella (on top of the resort fees). We laughed as with the young kids we didn’t even get to sit at the chairs. Anyhow - don’t do express checkout. I’m always careful to review my bill (which I did) - but getting bogus charges after the fact is unacceptable. The process to get the charges reversed seems extreme (waiting Marriott for a call back 4 days later). To top it all off, 2 of the 4 of us have Coxsackie (our guess it’s from the splash / kids area).
