    I didn't like the entry to the rooms being from the outside. I didn't like that there was no additional security lock on the door other than the one, and I wish the showerhead was bigger.

    I like the proximity of the hotel to the beach. I like the price of the rooms. I liked the quietness of the hotel and courtyard area was very quaint and relaxing.

    The only thing was the water in our shower was slow to drain but not too bad.

    The staff was warm and friendly! The location was perfect with it being so close to the beach and restaurants/shops but yet in a very quiet area. The parking was so affordable and we were able to stay parked after we checked out! We enjoyed the pool it was a perfect way to relax and well kept.

    It's not too clear, but the $10 resort fee doesn't include parking. Make sure when you check in that you let the staff know that you are parking a car. It's $10 a day extra to park a car, which is a steal compared with other resorts or having to park your car at $25 a day in public parking. You will need a parking tag for your car which they will give you upon checkin. It would be helpful if this place had bikes and bike locks for rent, to make it easier to navigate down to the busier part of A1A. Although everyting is walkable, sometimes its easier to drive.

    Aqua Hotel is the perfect location for spending time at the beach which is only a 2 minute walk away. I liked that the hotel is situtated about a half mile to a mile from the most congested part of Fort Lauderdale Central beach, so it brings a calmer crowd from the Four Seasons and Conrad resorts that sit infront of it. There are cafe's near by and a handful of resturants that are easy to walk to if you don't feel like making way up to the party sceen. The King Stuido was a perfect size, it had a table with two chairs, a wardorbe, a microwave, safe, TV, and ice bucket. The bed was comfy with plenty of large pillows. The shower was well appointed with soap, shampoo, and conditioner. Beach chairs and beach towels were avail. at the office for guests. The staff was very friendly and the garden and pool areas were well kept. Overall a relaxing vibe. It's clean, efficient, and for the price a great value compared with the major resorts on the opposite side of the street. Like some reviewers tell you, it is open air hotel concept, but most places on the back side of the resorts are, (botique/ motel style) I felt safe though. One day I left the do not disturb sign on my door, and the staff was kind to put new towels and toilet paper in a bag on my door. I would definitely stay here again.

    Great location. Wonderful design especially the outdoor areas. Lots of places to sit & hang out outside.

    Left early on the day of check out so had to just drop the keys off at the drop box. Tried to check out on the app, website but that didn’t work.

    Location of this and the other properties in the Mgmt group were spectacular. Also multiple little points such as a little market, juice bar, bakery that made it special.

    The cleaning solution used painfully strong in odour, but that also lets you know it is clean. Having our own broom and dustpan would be nice to sweep up sand more than just the cleaned times by staff.

    The location is incredible! Plus, having access to the ‘sister’ hotels was awesome, even just for the wifi access.

    No major complaints.

    The location was great, one block from the beach. The room was large and clean. I went with a group of friends for spring break, the value was amazing. The hotel had a boutique relaxing vibe, with many amenities. We had access to all the hotels under the network, including ours with heated pools, jacuzzi, outdoor seating, and a grill. Room service is provided daily, beach towels are provided for free, and free rental of select chairs for the beach.

    Low-rise motel in a great location to explore the delights of Fort Lauderdale

    The room was rather chilly and humid, but I expect that's down to the climate which was cool and rainy when we stayed. The motel rooms(it's not what I would describe as a hotel) are clearly designed for helping guests contend with the heat and not the cold! There were lots of biting mosquitos out in the evenings, so take repellent

    The location was excellent, close to a bakery, nice small cafes and larger more sophisticated dining experiences alike. The heated pools were lovely. The big Mall nearby was a brisk 15 minute walk.

    It honestly felt impossible to cross the street by foot, so the location is almost useless. You end up needing a car to go to the beach!

    Beautiful sunset, nice room, great laundry with lots of useful things, like utensils and beach toys.

    Sheets/bedding need to be clean and stain free.

    Very cute - 2 pools and courtyards were charming. Room was spacious but would’ve liked to have had the second couch bed prepared and made for us. The sheets we were given, for that were badly stained, and we needed a replacement and additional bedding. The office staff was friendly and helpful but the office was not staffed full-time so sometimes it was difficult to find them. Great location walking distance to the beach, canals and nice little restaurants

    "Reception"/office should be somehow marked and I also missed any sign pointing to the reception.

    Nice big and clean room. Heated pools. Very friendly staff. Maybe the best hotel of our Florida visit this year.
