It has very good amenities, Parking is included, you can go the pool at the hotels close by witch is very nice the front desk ladies were very nice and helpful… However there is not curtains to cover the sun so I was waking up right when the sun was coming up and every morning there was someone picking up the garbage not in a quite way I could hear everything since 7 am just smashing the bags in a golf car, the room they gave us was okay , I do think they should remodel them Just so they look a little newer. It was not very clean.

We enjoyed our stay at the Marina Del Mar Resort, it is a little older, but that really didn't matter to us. We enjoyed the Marina, it's beautiful along with the outdoor space with the pools and bar. It also was very family oriented there, and overall we would come back again. We did wish there was a second elevator for the other side of the resort, and the parking was okay. Theres a huge parking lot, but it is a little bit of a walk if you have bags and stuff. Other than that it was a beautiful place to stay.

This hotel was ok. Not the best, but not the worst. The beds were terrible as were the pillows. The showers/ bathrooms are very old/ dated. The room however was very clean and location was pretty nice for just a quick couple night getaway. The parking is limited and we had to park quite a distance from our room. The view was nice. The breakfast was ok. It was complimentary so we didnt expect much. It was nice to be able to grab a quick bite and go.

I don’t write reviews but I am because I was very conflicted when booking my stay at the Marina because the reviews. I read lots of complaints about noise from boats, sunlight disturbing sleep, and outdated rooms. I was nervous to stay here imagining I’d be wide awake at 4am in a gross hotel room. From a middle class perspective ( not expecting the Ritz) our stay was great. The continental breakfast was minimal but the staff was quick to say, bring whatever you want to your room. Our kids snacked on breakfast sandwiches and muffins throughout our stay thanks to the continental bfast, we had fresh coffee each morning, without paying $15 daily per person at most other hotels in the area or restaurants. The rooms are old, our shower did look so so BUT water pressure was superb. Our room had a full length sliding glass door that we opened by 9am each day to enjoy coffee and get ready with the ocean breeze each day. That alone made our room worth it. The boats did not keep us up, the sun wasn’t too bright to sleep, and the path surrounding the location was awesome, we saw at least 20 sharks and 3 manatees. Skippers had great food!!!! And there is another bar next door on the opposite side with bands, pool table, open till 4am if you want some night life. I would go back in a heartbeat.

The people were friendly and polite. Outside grounds and the pool were wonderful. Next door is an excellent restaurant which had live music in the evening. The room was a different story. Daily maid service was very good. The mold in the bathroom looked like a failed science experiment. We had a room with a kitchen. Cupboards were falling apart and the microwave that was supposed to be hanging over the stove was ripped out and placed on the counter. Overall it was a good experience except for the bathroom.
