Staycation Series: Sip, Stay and Save at AC Marriott Fort Lauderdale Beach

Florida residents, now is the time to book and get a great deal for summer.


Here’s all you need to know to make you want to go: modern, waterfront accommodations located just steps from Fort Lauderdale Beach, a rooftop pool deck and bar, proximity to the energy of Las Olas Boulevard—oh, and Summer Savings Packages that offer Marriott Bonvoy members 3,000 bonus points per night and savings on five nights or more with promo codes available through the website. With 171 beautifully appointed rooms free from clutter yet appointed with mini-refrigerators, 55-inch TVs, coffee makers and—if you can snag one—balcony rooms overlooking the ocean and Intracoastal, you’re sure to find your Zen. Little things mean a lot during a staycation, too—like free parking (including valet) when you book through the website. If you don’t feel like heading off property for drinks or dinner, stay and chill out at the AC Pool Bar, which serves up small plates, craft cocktails and locally sourced brews, or AC Lounge, where you’ll enjoy Spanish-inspired bites, signature cocktails, local craft beer and wine on tap.
