Used to be a great gathering spot for yachties and locals for happy hour. Now a lousy menu of frozen heat and eat stuff, nothing I will put in my body. Sad the new owners ruined a fun spot, with a great view. Was it worth all the business you’ve driven away? Do you realize we and hundreds like us, won’t be bringing our out-of-Town guests to your spot anymore? How does that work for you?
Would give zero stars if that were an option.response / report this review -

The reason why I gave the BC 3 stars. 1 the beach is across the street from the hotel. 2 the service support was polite and went above to make sure our stay was nice. 3 The jungle queen was right next door so we can take a tour. The reason why this hotel didn't get all 5 stars. 1 You have to pay for parking but there is limited space. 2 The rooms are dated and limited outlets. I did ask the front desk and the lady told me that they're renovating so I hope that the BC add more outlets and better appliances(microwave). Add more parking or buy the property behind it to add more parking. Also make sure that they don't add some hidden fee when you leave in the morning. If you buy online you shouldn't have to pay anything extra. The pictures online are not of the outdated rooms but of the renovated rooms. I understand that renovations are ongoing and would like to see the finish result.

Bahia cabana was a great place to eat and drink on the riverfront. Very friendly staff with license plates from various states/countries posted throughout the bar. And infamous blues brothers sitting in the lobby for great photo op!

This was my first time in Fort Lauderdale and I loved it. This place and it's staff was great. Derrick at the front desk is the best and very friendly and helpful. Yes, I will stay here again because close to shopping, right on the beach, and other water activity.

The only good part about this place was the location. The girl at the front desk seemed like it was a bother to her to have people checking in, when we walked in to tell her we wouldn't be staying past the second day we walked in to her on her phone and talking with another girl, they both seemed bothered by us coming into the lobby. The lobby itself was highly unimpressive. The parking is not free as it is advertised. There is barely any water pressure in the shower, and after only one shower the tub backed up and was filled with water and an unidentified brown/black substance, we tried to use the room phone to call the front desk to let them know but that wasn't working at all. The pictures online are not accurate, the rooms are not thoroughly cleaned, we found old sugar wrappers from before we had gotten there stuck in the "kitchen" sink, and there is paint chipping everywhere you turn. The AC unit doesn't do any good except to cool down the a 3 foot radius around the unit, we had to buy a fan on the first night just so we wouldn't be hot all night. The TV barely works, the channels were constantly skipping in and out, and when we checked in they didn't give us any papers, the wifi information, or a "Do Not Disturb" sign to put on our door. This place is cheaper for a reason, and it's not even worth the prices they charge. Don't waste your money here.

We stayed at hotel because that is where the Surf Club Reunion was.
I did look at website before going and the pictures did not look that nice, which is very true, but wanted to be with friends, so booked the hotel, hoping it was better.
The place needs a major renovation, it is really shabby, starting with the lobby. The person at the reception area said we had a nice room, hate to see the other ones, if they thought our room was nice. There was no stopper for the tub, so I asked for one, since I wanted to take a bath. They did not have another one to give me, so I used a wash cloth to plug the hole and unfortunately when I filled the tub with water, it had a greenish color to it. I could see the repairs that had been done, were done very poorly, like replacing the tile floor in bathroom, but leaving old tile by edge of tub.
On the positive side, it had a nice size area outside with bar to have the event, which was about 175 people. The Buffet was nice. It is located in the harbor, with nice view of water and right across from Ft. Lauderdale Beach. Had the French Toast for breakfast and it was very good.
Very old hotel that has been neglected and needs some tender loving care.response / report this review -

Food and service were just alright. Went there for Sunday breakfast because they advertise bottomless mimosas, but they didn't have champagne. Beautiful view of the Marina.

Staff goes above and beyond, very helpful, they including the manager Darrell deserve a 5 star. As for the accommodationsOk for the price,I guess. Rooms were small, shower needs redone! Restaurant on site was overpriced. I do have to say it was kinda a nice ambiance. The doors from the room were"French" doors and having this opened was a nice open feeling that opened up to a upper terrace (for lack of a better word)

I used to love this place. Last. Few time I went. It sucked and going down hill. Be a long time before i go back during the day on the weekend.. You have to pay to park with the Cabana card. Couldnt get waited on. The drinks used to be rock star. But the view is always the best.

This place was amazing. I went for a very quick dinner. They had a very tiny menu but it was great. The fish dip was incredible. The burgers are to die for. Also the drinks are amazing. A little pricey but not when you consider the location.
