Making this town a tad more fab, from the location in seaside North Beach Village to the stylish décor to the eye candy.

Hungry? Sure, you could walk the shore and explore for options, but we prefer to stay and slay the ceviche right here at Riviera by Fabio Viviani.

One of the few area hotels located right on the beach.

Shopportunities at Sawgrass Mills, events at the BB&T Center or catching a flight – you’re central to all of it.

Perched right on the Intracoastal, steps from the sand. It originally opened as Escape in 1949 – the first year-round beach hotel with a pool.

Rooms’ warm mahogany and oceany-blue tones are an elegant take on beachy-chic ‘tude.

Spot-on location near Dania, Hollywood and Ft. Lauderdale beaches. Plus the airport (obvs), Sawgrass Mills, Aventura Mall & Hard Rock Stadium.

Primo Galt Ocean Mile location, near nightlife, Las Olas shopping, the airport and cruise port.

Newly opened hotel (Jan 2024)

Mod refurbished elegance with the beach on one side and the canal on the other, and floor to ceiling windows to take full advantage.

Beach-centric style makes you feel tanner & blonder just hanging out. That said, it’s the Shore Dive Capital of South Florida – don a mask & gawk at the fish.

Half-moon shaped outdoor pool and patio curve around the rooms – even more enjoyable with the poolside bar.

A paradisiacal space where the atmosphere is imbued by those Buffett vibes. And yes, there's a tiki bar.

Recently renovated, with comfortable beds, contemporary décor and flat-screens.

Floor-to-ceiling windows, tons of space & design-mag-worthy styling await in each kitted-out suite. Also a plus: in-room washer/dryer(!).

The city's oldest hotel (built in 1936), but frequent renovations keep it comfortable.

Right by the beach and strolling distance from shops & eats.

True to its name, it is indeed quite tranquilo, set across the street from the famous Bonnet Gardens and just three blocks from the beach.

Feet from the sand in the heart of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. Yeah, beachfront life is OK.

Free WiFi keeps us from getting the tech withdrawal shakes.

Every room boasts glorious Atlantic views.

Nothing like a good ol' fashioned game of Marco Polo in the pool.

You know what’s nice to wake up to? Free breakfast, that’s what.

Upbeat modern lobby, homey low-key rooms: the perfect comfort mix.

Modern suites are bright white with a single accent color stylishly unifying the wall decor and furnishings.

Retro building, mod rooms. What more do you need?

Hotel pool is prime for relaxation or exercise.

Party like a rock star, then recharge at the kickass lagoon-style pool with hot tubs, water slide and waterfalls.
