This is being rated a 4 stars hotel, I think it deserves 5 stars. The room is spacious and comfortable. The bathroom is clean and well equipped. The restaurants are good. I enjoyed the breakfast restaurant which offers buffet and great selection of a la carte. The pool is nice and the spa is awesome. Location wise - it’s a 10-15 mins walk from the beach, so really depends on what you are looking for. I very much prefer the quietness of the location.

We had an extraordinary birthday weekend for my wife this past weekend. The Guest Experience Team went above and beyond to make our stay special. My wife received a gorgeous flower arrangement and a bottle of sparkling wine upon or arrival as well as an upgraded room with a wide view of the intracoastal. This was our first time at the hotel since the renovation and it was spectacular. We had reservations at the three main restaurants on property. Our favorite was Sotogrande. Our waiter was a gentleman from Romania that was outstanding and along with our delicious meal made our evening. Pier 66 also spoiled us with not one, not two, but 3 birthday cakes during our stay. I can't say enough about our time there except that we will be back soon. Thank you very much for making my wife's birthday so special.

Pier Sixty-Six exceeded expectations. We had a great experience from start to finish. The property is impressive, modern, and very well designed. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully detailed — perfect for both relaxing and actually enjoying your stay. The amenities are a big highlight. The pools are beautiful and well maintained, the marina views are incredible, and the overall atmosphere feels upscale without being overwhelming. The fitness center is fully equipped, with dedicated areas for strength training, cardio, yoga, and recovery — ideal if you like to keep your routine while traveling. Service throughout the hotel was professional and attentive, and everything felt well organized. From dining options to common areas, you can tell a lot of thought went into the experience. Pier Sixty-Six is a great choice whether you’re looking for a weekend getaway, a longer stay, or simply a place that offers comfort, quality, and great amenities in Fort Lauderdale. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.

Pier Sixty-Six was the perfect way to start our vacation. From the moment we checked in, everything was wonderful. The welcome drink was such a nice touch and the staff could not have been friendlier. We were given a gorgeous corner room with the most beautiful, spacious bathroom and more amenities than I could even begin to list. When we arrived in the room there were lovely chocolates waiting, along with bottled water and slippers, and the balcony was a great surprise. The room was so comfortable and beautiful that we honestly never even left—we ordered room service for both dinner and breakfast and just enjoyed relaxing before our cruise. It’s also only minutes from the cruise port, which made the next morning incredibly easy. Truly a 10/10 Luxury experience and I would absolutely recommend staying here.

This hotel was an absolute delight from the moment we arrived. From the friendly valet team to the welcoming staff greeting us with champagne, every interaction set the tone for an incredible stay. A special shoutout to Ben, the bellman from Turkey, who was exceptionally kind and accommodating. We truly felt like VIPs the entire time. The hotel itself is stunning... every detail is thoughtfully designed, right down to the signature scent in the lobby. The pool staff was fantastic as well, and the towel attendant from Boston was such a bright, friendly presence. Thank you for a truly memorable experience. We can’t wait to return!

Stayed here for a quick staycation and can’t wait to go back! The room and pool upgrades are fantastic. Rooms are spacious, clean and the decor is chic and elevated. The staff were sweet and accommodating. The spa was nice! They charge $125+ (can’t remember exact amount) to access the amenities or you can book a treatment and enjoy the spa amenities before/after your treatment. Sauna, shower experience, snow room and hydrotherapy pools were great and the massage was amazing. They probably should implement a no-kids policy or at least 16 years old and up bc there were kids splashing around which made it not so relaxing at times. Looking forward to going back to enjoy the pools and 360 degrees rotating bar/restaurant!

Pier Sixty Six was a wonderful place to stay with our family. We arrived late in the night and were greeted with warm and welcoming smiles. The front desk asked if we needed some water and asked if there was anything we needed prior to heading to our room. The water was in a glass bottle which is AMAZING as we do not drink out of plastic. The hotel offers free water in your room throughout the entire stay which is also another huge plus. We also had a very sweet treat waiting for us upon entering our room which was also an unexpected little plus. The room was spacious and CLEAN! It was the first hotel we have stayed in where we felt actually comfortable staying in the room. We travel a lot and feel the last 5 years the service and cleaniness has decreased greatly. The pool was amazing and we spent the entire day out enjoying the sun. It truly was an awesome experience. To add to the great experience as we were leaving the bellman Alejandro made the entire trip. He was so nice and even ran back inside to give our child a stuffed manatee which is now called Grey. Thank you so much for the amazing experience and we will 100% be back.

Absolutely Incredible hospitality, attention to detail, breathtaking decor and upgrades, beautiful rooms with amazing views. Amenities are wonderful. Staff was incredibly friendly. the moment we walked in we were greeted by a Bellman who took our bags up for us. We were greeted by amazing host m Chris who gave us welcome drinks, which was quite refreshing. The hotel lobby was beautiful, the number of restaurants at this property is incredible and with Wide selection of cuisine. Our room was so spacious and it had a beautiful view of Fort Lauderdale facing the dock of cruise ships, which was really fun. Loved drinking morning coffee here My favorite part was the Pier 17 rooftop bar which rotates slowly to show amazing views of the city, especially at night Highly highly highly recommend this hotel. You will not be disappointed.
