Escape to The Westin Beach Resort, Fort Lauderdale and discover the "Venice of America." Explore 300 miles of navigable water on the stunning Intracoastal Waterway to the resort's west, and you'll soon see why this area is called the yachting capital of the world. To the east, the soft sands of the Atlantic Ocean beckon you to Fort Lauderdale Beach, where you can enjoy endless activity, from scuba diving and deep-sea fishing to parasailing and jet skiing or just blissful beachside lounging. For a cosmopolitan contrast, visit the nearby cities of Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Or delight in the wonderful shopping and dining, plus many of southeast Florida's favorite attractions, all just steps from the resort. Of course, you're always welcome to linger here, where our facilities offer many experiences on your road to renewal. Indulge body and mind at our rejuvenating spa or reenergize at the fitness center. A serene oceanfront pool invites hours of relaxation. Find refreshment at the poolside Waves Bar and Grill, perfect for casual lunches and tropical drinks. At dinnertime, tuck into the area's best steaks at the world-famous Shula's Steakhouse - on-site and right by the beach. Fancy a quiet meal - our 24-hour room service menu runs the gamut from healthy to indulgent, delivered to each of our 433 soothing and elegant guest rooms. All offer a refreshing, smoke-free environment plus the sumptuous pleasures of the award-winning Westin Heavenly Bed, most with spectacular views of the ocean or Intracoastal Waterway. And the best views of all are had from our 4,000-square-foot rooftop deck, ideal for business or social functions out in the Florida sunshine. It's part of the 32,000 square feet of flexible meeting space that make the resort an ideal setting for your next event.

Great Hotel- highly recommended.

TH Nov 9, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

This recently renovated hotel provides great value for the money. While you could stay at the nearby W or Ritz with many more ... amenities and swankier surroundings, the Westin approaches 4-star standards without blowing your entire budget. The staff was very friendly and the room was spacious, spotless and tastefully decorated. A couple caveats: The bathrooms could have provided a bit more privacy and Waves, the poolside bar, is somewhat lackluster. I know when I order from a hotel bar, I'll pay hotel prices, but I expect the drinks to reflect that. They should ditch the sugary spring break drinks and come up with a better signature cocktail list.

Casablanca's restaurant is a short walk from the hotel, as are many inexpensive breakfast places. Our favorite was caled H2O.

--pezmom, stamford Aug 7, 2009

Nightlife tip, Short Walk

there is a lot to do right around the hotel. The only thing is right there on the strip it is very tourist-y and it can get old after a few nights. Other than that, you can venture to Miami or Hollywood to do more things!

the hotel is new--and we had a partial ocean view room, which was very nice. the staff is cordial but does not go out of its ... way for you--except the doorman. checking in and out is a painfully slow process. having said that, the rooms are clean, well appointed, and the beac was fabulous.

It was a very nice hotel, newly renovated and just perfect for my boyfriend and I. We got a great deal from Orbitz and ... couldn't resist. There were lots of little children on the weekend at the pool, but nothing too overbearing.

Great Hotel Deal

Suzi Jul 31, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and would go back. The hotel decor is very modern and the rooms are lovely. ... We had an excellent view of the ocean from our room. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. We were able to walk to every restaurant and bar that we went to. The only bad service that we had was in Shula's for breakfast. Food was good, but service was slow and not very accurate. Waves (by the pool) has great food.

Never Disappointed

NJHan Jun 9, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

The Westin, as always, holds up its perception as being a GREAT value for the money. With the discount rates, I was staying ... at four-star level for three-star price. The room was immaculate and comfortable, the ocean view was beautiful, and the staff was friendly and went out of their way to be helpful whenever called upon! I didn't eat any of the food at the hotel, so I can't say anything about it or the restaurant/bar service, but I wouldn't expect anything less than top notch
