TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

We booked the Sonesta bc I wanted immediate access to A1A to run daily next to the beach and have the option to visit the state park + water taxis, both which were a short walk away. The location was stellar. It was only 15 mins from the airport and the rooms were the perfect size. staff was extremely helpful + welcoming, and the facility was spotless. the amenities on site like the restaurant were lovely. The gym was super functional (I had the place to myself) and the restaurant is spot on for a casual, but delicious breakfast adjacent to the beach. We had some crummy weather but had key access to the beach where the hotel staff (Rafael was extremely helpful) assisted with chairs and umbrellas — a huge perk. Every touchpoint was memorable and I’ll deff be back to visit again.

The Sonesta was great! I attended a meeting and the service they provided was wonderful. Kelvin (valet) was very pleasant and accomodating from our first encounter. He always had a smile and was very helpful. Sydney in the restuarant provided excellent customer service, suggesting items to try on the menu and always very pleasant. Thank you Kelvin and Sydney for making my stay at the Sonesta memorable.

Came to the Sonesta to host a conference of almost 200 people and we had the best experience. The staff is attentive and helpful, the accommodations are wonderful and the view from the penthouse floor (conference floor) is one that cannot be beat. Happy to have used the Sonesta for this conference and look forward to doing business with them in the future as well. Shoutout Gemma for being the best!

Very nice staff. We particularly thought Rosa at check in was very helpful and friendly. They have a great happy hour that is worth checking out. Close enough to a lot of restaurants but still quiet in room. The beach section is a great spot included in the hotel

When visiting Fort Lauderdale beach, look for Rafael in front of the Sonesta hotel. Best beach chairs and umbrella attendant. He can be busy during the high season but overall a quieter part of the beach to relax by the ocean.
