Bon petit déjeuner. Service impeccable. Bel hôtel.

Very good

One of a kind experience, such hospitality was impeccable

Best hotel in Lauderdale. One of top four seasons. Excellent staff super clean amazing food. Highly recommend worth every penny.

Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale is the third Four Seasons property I have tried this year and the only one worthy of a perfect rating.

I booked here after being notified that my reservation at Thompson Miami Beach was cancelled because the hotel grand opening was delayed. I watched the reviews of a few premium properties in Dade and Broward for 2 weeks before booking here. I almost booked at the Conrad next door. The poor condition of the Conrad exterior upon arriving at the Four Seasons was all the validation I needed that I made the right choice.

My six-night stay was a master class in hospitality. A truly exceptional property staffed by people who are the very best part of Four Seasons.

RECEPTION
Our rooms were ready for an AM arrival, which is always a plus. Rivas, our bellman, was great! In fact, all of the valets and bellmen were the nicest guys! I would stay here again just to catch up with these guys as they were cool dudes to talk to.

ROOMS
Beautiful, well appointed and treated in the Four Season minimalist, functional, monochromatic esthetic. Nice bathrooms and generously stocked honor bar with good variety of snacks and beverages. Kudos for no single use plastics.

Same flooring used on balconies as inside rooms which makes the outdoor space feel like an extension of the indoor space.

Housekeeping and turndown services were prompt and superb. Housekeeping highly proficient in the art of anticipation. You have every amenity before you even know you needed it.

EVELYN’S
Always good for breakfast. Johnny provided excellent service daily. The food offerings reward nicely and the chef was always sending out a little something special each day to surprise and delight.

They offer a breakfast buffet on weekends; but, I recommend sticking to the menu items. Execution problems persisted during the Saturday morning I was there. The pancakes were mid, as the kids say. They looked like low-quality machine-made fare you would expect to find at Four Points not Four Seasons.

Keep in mind that AMEX FHR food and beverage credits are good here not MAAS which isn’t considered part of the hotel. MAAS has the only Michelin star in the city so it will be on my bucket list for future visits.

SPA
Sublime! Superior service although there was no men’s locker room attendant when I was there. Lockers are pre-staged and personalized with a nice note.

Sauna and steam room will not disappoint. You will need a Stanford PhD in physics to figure out how to operate the Vichy-style shower.

The 120-minute deep dive message from Kendra was the highlight of the stay! Hot stones, foot scrub, cupping, the works. I would probably skip the cupping next time but at least tried it. Kendra was excellent! You will want to request her.

FITNESS CENTER
You can actually get your bench press on here! The bar is not part of a Smith Machine which is an extremely rare find in hotel gyms. In fact, this is the only one I have encountered in 40 years. Only enough plates to get you to about 300 lbs. but that’s good enough for most of us!

Best flavored water machine ever, and it dispenses both sparkling and flat.

All cardio machines face windows but only the stair machines users get direct ocean views. Others get look at the Conrad, which desperately needs a fresh coat of paint.

BEACH CLUB
They set you up nicely with chaise covers, towels and water. I spent most of the time in the ocean but was surprised by the absence of a server making rounds to take F&B orders when I was out of the water.

OVERALL
Extraordinary! Would love to return for a winter getaway.

Second time here - and again a sheer delight to feel you're truly in the best of hands. Everyone at the hotel is kind, bright and effortlessly hospitable without any pretense or strain. It's a rarity for this area - and the property is faultlessly fine. I will be back again and again.
