Sixteen acres of waterfront luxury and a full menu of resort activities

The Harbor Beach Marriott Resort & Spa captivates with 16 acres of private waterfront real estate and a well-rounded menu of resort activities. With several restaurants offering ocean views, a sizeable spa and Surf Club kids program with a wave simulator, the hotel covers all bases. The property caters to travelers who plan to stay onsite for most of the time. And why not? The free-form pool and water activities--from parasailing to ocean kayaking--make it tough to stray.

Highlights
  • Private beachfront luxury hotel near Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport
  • 20,000-square-foot spa offering facials, massage, nail and body treatments
  • The Surf Club kids program showcases a Hawaiian Surf Simulator and theater
  • Multiple restaurants and bars, plus Starbucks
  • Oceanfront Terrace with cabanas and fire pit

 

Rooms

Immaculate rooms show sophistication and glorious views of the Intracoastal Waterway or private beach and Atlantic via furnished balconies. Harbor Beach Marriott Resort & Spa guests sleep atop pristine white cotton of the luxurious pillow-clad Revive bedding exclusive to the chain. The oceanfront setting influences other design choices, from the tropical palette of gold, mango sand and turquoise to the granite counter tops on the TV cabinet. Wi-Fi service is available for an additional fee.

Spa
Guests in the mood for pampering escape to the spa, which spoils men and women with ocean views and signature services such as Harbor Beach signature seashell therapy (which uses real seashells to release muscle tension) and citrus body glow.
Dining

The three restaurants at Harbor Beach Marriott Resort & Spa indulge diners with oceanfront vistas. Whether the taste is for fresh-baked bread and succulent entrees at 3030 Ocean or handcrafted cocktails and Cuban sandwiches at Sea Level, the hotel serves tasty dishes with a side of ambiance.

Recreation
The Oceanfront Terrace at the Harbor Beach Marriott Resort & Spa sets the scene for lounging and socializing with cozy alcoves, private cabanas and fire pits set amid lush landscaping. Closer to the beach, a sparkling, lagoon-style pool beckons during lazy days and a new Hawaiian Surf Simulator excites the kids. One to four children can ride the waves at once.

 

The Surf Club--open to kids ages 5 to 12 for a fee--also teases with a theater tricked out with a 65-inch plasma TV, stadium seats and oversized beanbag chairs. For more adventures, tykes can borrow underwater cameras, make crafts or hit the Mac computers and xBox 360s in the media room.

 

Adult play takes form in the up-to-date fitness center, multiple tennis courts and water sports that can be arranged by Aloha, a business specializing in parasailing, ocean kayaking, speed boating and wave running.

Best Beach Resort in South Florida

We've stayed many times at HB Marriott, and there's nothing in south Florida that has a more beautiful location. Private beach, with food and drink service on the sand! Amazing lagoon style pool, and all the sports and beach games you can think of. Spa is pricey but worth it. 3030 Ocean is quite possibly one of the best restaurants in all the state (go for the chefs surprise meal, wow!). Many places have views of the ocean but nobody else has the seclusion of this resort, without having to walk across the busy and drunken craziness of A1A, then battling it out with others for real estate on the sand. Simply take the elevators to the full-service beach instead. Ask a local, they'll tell you.

"Fantastic family getaway"

Great relaxing, beach and pool are excellent, water temp Ideal and we had rainon and off most of the week. But we enjoyed it even in the rain. The children enjoyed the activities at the surf club. Friendly atmosphere especially the waiters at the three Restaurants on site.

Fantastic getaway...

I stayed at this hotel because it was recommended by a friend that had recently stayed there.....I was looking to get away for a couple days just for some R&R and this was the perfect location. As far as the hotel it was very nice and CLEAN, there were lots of great amenities, plenty of restaurants to choose from (a little pricey), right on the beach, great pool, gym, and the spa was absolutely AWESOME.... The only downside was the location but nothing that a 5 minute cab ride can't help with......also close to Ft. Lauderdale airport. I wasn't looking to get out and venture and I didn't find it necessary to leave the property they had everything I needed. I travelled alone but it was very family orientated and I was very pleased with my stay. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. Would definitely recommend this hotel you won't be disappointed.

Disappointed in the Twin Cities

Good - could have been better

We were there for a wedding over the Memorial Day Week-end, and there was another wedding on Saturday and one on Sunday. My family booked a block of rooms at a very favorable rate, but we decided to go with [...], because of the rate was close and included 2 free adult breakfasts each day. Since we were traveling with our fourteen year old son, we requested 2 double beds. [...] I was told by the Marriott rep, that our request had been noted. Upon my check in, the reception person stated that they did not recognize requests because of it being booked through [...](and we would have to have a roll in bed), and that breakfast was not included. Fortunately, I had the [...]itenary with me for the free breakfast, or I am certain that they would not have honored. Unfortunately, the rooms can accomodate two doubles or a king, but a king and a roll in made the room very crowded. Our receptionist was notably rude. The amenities (bar service) was overwhelmed for both Friday and Saturday night, and it took easily 10 - 15 minutes to get bar service at the bar, and the waitress (while pleasant) could not service all of the tables. Otherwise, the workout room is great, the pool was nice (but ran out of towels, and the other service individuals were very pleasant during our trip. However, for the $230 (base rate) per night for 3 nights, I can't say I was overwhelmed by the hotel or its staff. I would have thought that based on the holiday weekend, and the booked weddings, the hotel would have done a better job staffing for Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Harbor Beach Marriott - Great Time

The hotel was generally great. Being right on the beach front was very nice. The majority of the resorts further up the beach are all located across the street from the water. The rooms were a good size and sufficiently appointed. Plus, we always love the Marriott bedding. Though, you really shouldn't be spending much time in them. If there is a gripe, the hotel is about 1 mile from the nearest cluster of shops/restaurant, but it is a short walk or cheap cab ride (stand on site) away. If you are going to eat at the hotel, get the brunch for breakfast and try to take advantage of the excellent happy hour at the beach bar. My wife and I would definitely stay there again. We gave the resort 4 stars, rather than 5, on an overall scale. However, factoring in the bang for the buck (excluding the somewhat over priced food) and location on the water it is 5 stars.

Take advantage of the Hertz rental service at the hotel. It is great for day trips, rather than dealing with paying for parking for your entire stay.

very good.

This was a trip to introduce our 17 month old son to the sun and beach, since we do not see both in MN. The hotel was very nice with a private well cleaned beach. a nice pool when you can not swin in the ocean. The self parkinf will set you at 25$ a day. plus, if you need a fridge you are going to pay an extra 25$. food in the hotel is extremely expensive, however, there is a starbucks in the lobby and there a numerous nice restaurants a short walk from the hotel.

Family Trip to Fort Lauderdale

The hotel was great. The rooms were clean and well kept. The housekeeper visited daily -- sometimes early and sometimes late in the day. The pool was great -- large, but you had to get there early to get chairs -- the earlier the better the seats. We really enjoyed having Starbucks right in the lobby and visited each morning. The on-site restaurants had good food and good variety, but were very expensive. We eventually started dining out for half the price (visited PF Chang's a couple of nights, the Hard Rock Cafe and the Hollywood Boardwalk.
