Girlfriend Getaway
Staff were extremely nice and helpful. Room was very comfortable. Breakfast was included which was very nice and it was a great breakfast. Spa prices were pricey so we didn't participate even though that was our plan. Wine was awful at the poolside restaurant - undrinkable. Location is terrific - beautiful beachfront and gorgeous pool. Outlet Mall was a short drive and it was a good mall.

Perfect beach vacay
I have stayed at this hotel several times over the past 2 years, each time was wonderful & I hated to leave. The staff isfriendly & helpful, the resort beautiful, and could not be better located. Although I travel with my family, it would be a great couples spot too. There is a beautiful pool and you are also steps from the beach. The rooms are well maintained & nicely decorated.

Restaurant
We enjoyed everything the hotel offered except the Bobgo's Bar and Grill. Suggest you get a new menu or chef. The food over all was inferior to other restaurants in the area. Jack's Restaurant on the other hand was very very good. Good variety and quality. The chef cooking the the omlets etc. was very pleasent and made the best breakfast. With out a doubt we will consider returning in the near future.

Beautiful view.
Arrived tired and a little cranky from the trip but the front desk staff was welcoming and helpful.From the moment we entered the room and saw the view we were hooked. Loved the location especially the little park that is beside the resort. Started every morning to sunrise and ended the day with sunset.

fantastic fort myers beach getaway
Everything we need for a great vacation. we were so busy at the resort that we did not have time to do much outside. The only thing that I would recommend is replacing the uncomfortable pillows. Residence Inn Marriott pillows are much more comfortable. Except for the pillows, resort is perfect.

Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!!
The room was great and overlooked the Gulf. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Any problems (very few) were taken care of immediately. Three of us stayed in a suite with a full kitchen. It was great for an occasional meal. Would love to go back.
