This 384-room hotel is situated on a full-service marina, so while you won’t be on the beach, you will get a great look at the swanky yachts rolling in. Plus, you'll have access to tennis courts, a spa, three pools (including a hydrotherapy pool), and water taxis that can zip you around Fort Lauderdale's waterways. Bonus: It's just two miles from Port Everglades.
