I was fortunate to stay at the Marriott Spa Suites after a conference in South Florida. I was incredible. Great Spa and Salon. Great Food. Great Service.

Stayed here for one night before leaving Miami on a cruise. There were six of us adults and one baby traveling. I booked the villa suite being under the impression it had 3 bedrooms (One king, One queen, One double). Front desk said at check-in that it was a misprint on Expedia's part, since their largest suite only has 2 bedroom units with a "pull out sofa" in the living room...that was a surprise to us. Outside of the fact that one couple had to sleep in the living room the first night of the holiday we all thought it was a nice clean place. Beds were real comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need. We loved the fact there is a washer/dryer in the suite. We had a big terrace with lots of seating right in front of the pool/jacuzzi (which is huge)...we were on the main floor. The pool was gorgeous and warm. I have been to Miami several times now and know my way around. South beach is where the best hotels are but if you want a quiet hotel away from the action this is a nice place to go.... with kids especially.

We stayed at this property on the final night of our cruise vacation. We arrived at 9:00 a.m. after getting off the ship hoping to at least be able to stow our luggage and hang out at the pool while awaiting to check in. We were shocked to find out a room was ready for us! We proceeded to our villa and were totally amazed at the size, layout, and view from our villa. We were in building 5 on the 5th floor overlooking the White course. I get goosebumps thinking about it. While the family napped, I got the laundry started in our in room washer and dryer and proceeded to the front desk to inquire about a golf cart to go see the courses. The front desk manager, Andrew, volunteered to take me on a tour. We went on a 30 minute tour of the White course and over to the Blue Monster course. I was in golf lovers heaven! Later, we got another golf cart ride over to the "Blue Lagoon" spa pool area at the Doral for an afternoon in the pool. My children were amazed and had the time of their lives. The bartender, Jose, at the Bungalous poolside bar makes amazing margaritas! He was so nice too, comping some ice cream to our children when they had to wait a few minutes while he tended to his bar customers. Overall, we have never experienced such a phenomenal property. Our only suggestion, stop at a market and pick up some groceries if you do not have access to a car. You have a full kitchen and dining room to host meals in your villa. The dining establishments at the Doral are very expensive, and expect to drop $60.00 plus for lunch for a family of 4. Dinner would easily be twice that. We are hoping to take some extended family for a 2-3 night stay for some golf in the future. Check Expedia for amazing rates. We stayed for $179.00, but the villas can be as much as $500.00. Book early and get a great rate.

We loved the beds! They were so comfortable! We had to go across the street to the main hotel for any real kids activities and to get anything to eat. They have a marketplace express and barely even had a soda available!

The hotel is beautiful and so relaxing, the timeshare is very quiet with not much going on. VERY disappointed
