The hotel

Oozing style and sophistication, one of the many great things about the Sonesta Fort Lauderdale is where it is. Set just steps from the 7-mile stretch of sands, you can be jumping in those lapping waves in no time. But it’s not all about the beach. You’ll love the relaxing, calm infinity-edge pool, and the spa suite where you can treat yourself to a massage. The restaurant is a cool twist of Caribbean and American food, not to forget the tasty cocktails!

The check in process was so welcoming and pleasant . The front desk staff Andrea was amazing. She was very helpful and kind. When I asked Andrea the best place to eat she pointed out her favorite restaurant within walking distance. What a great place.

Absolutely loved my stay at Sonesta Hotel Fort Lauderdale Beach! From the moment I checked in, the entire staff made me feel welcome, but especially want to mention Austin—every morning, after grabbing my coffee, Austin's friendly and genuine set the perfect tone for the day. It’s not often you encounter such personal, attentive service, it truly made my stay memorable. The amenities are top-notch! The pool area is always clean and inviting, and the fitness center has everything I need a quick workout. The on-site dining was a delightful surprise—the food was fresh,, and beautifully presented. I looked forward to every meal. Of course, the location is unbeatable! Just steps from the beach, with-dropping ocean views everywhere you look. Waking up to the sound of the waves and watching the sunrise from my room is something I’ll never. Looking for the perfect balance of luxury, comfort, and outstanding hospitality on Fort Lauderdale Beach? Sonesta is it. I can’t wait to return! Read less
