Bahia Mar Fort Lauderdale Beach - DoubleTree by Hilton
The hotel's location right by the beach made access super convenient—just a short walk from the sand, which was perfect for our relaxed seaside vibe. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout our stay, contributing to a very pleasant experience. However, we were surprised by the resort fee of over $40 per night, especially since amenities like sun loungers and umbrellas weren’t included. It felt a bit misleading at check-in, as we assumed those would be covered. That said, the overall service quality, clean rooms, and prime beachfront spot still make this a strong choice if you're looking for comfort and convenience with a touch of luxury. Worth it for the location and hospitality.

Rooms were clean, modern, and well-equipped, offering a comfortable retreat after a day by the water.

With such excellent hospitality and prime seaside access, this place offers fantastic value. I’d definitely return and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing coastal getaway.

The pool is average; not impressive, but functional. Overall, it's a solid option if you're just passing through and don't need luxury. Good value for a quick stop in Fort Lauderdale.
