Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa – a 650-room resort set on the destination's largest stretch of private beach – unveils a $32 million dollar renovation, modernizing its guest rooms, suites, corridors, and event spaces while introducing a reimagined culinary concept and enhanced recreational offerings.

"For four decades, it has been our pleasure to provide memorable moments to guests through exceptional accommodations, all-encompassing amenities, and the heartfelt hospitality of our dedicated associates," said Donelle Zunker, general manager of Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort. "We look forward to continuing to serve as the backdrop for incredible vacation and event experiences, now with an even better look and product."

The redesign, led by California-based CRA Design, draws inspiration from the locale's abundant nature, blending serene oceanic tones with modern coastal decor. Guest rooms now feature calming hues, woven fabrics, and custom watercolor mural accent walls, while the 31 newly upgraded suites offer floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing panoramic ocean views, private balconies, and contemporary furnishings.

Five of the resort's meeting and event spaces were refreshed with new furniture, lighting, and artwork, highlighting local nature-inspired themes – like custom Axminster woven carpet with a design reminiscent of the intertwining of the ocean and canals, and a wallcovering inspired by the area's lush landscape of palms, cypress and mangroves. Additionally, the 15,000-square-foot Grand Ballroom and 8,000-square-foot Caribbean Ballroom received sculptural light fixtures in textured glass and bronze, depicting the movement of the ocean while adding a modern touch to the overall look.

Sea Level Restaurant and Ocean Bar also received a makeover with a new color scheme of sandy shades and brilliant blues, local coral stone and raffia accents, and a marine-inspired design. The beachside eatery offers indoor and outdoor dining along with an ocean view bar, just steps from the shore. Now offering lunch and dinner daily, the menu was curated by Executive Chef Mikey Termini and showcases the vibrant flavors of Caribbean and Latin American cuisine alongside fresh-caught seafood.

Further elevating the guest experience, the 15-story oceanfront resort introduced six pickleball courts to expand its recreational offerings, which include a tropical lagoon pool, outdoor lounge area with poolside cabanas, tennis courts, fitness center, and kids club activities.

Set on 16 acres and a quarter mile stretch of private beach, Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa offers seven food and beverage venues, a full-service spa, daily programming, and more than 100,000 square feet of event space. The resort's central location places guests just minutes from Fort Lauderdale International Airport, the cruise port, and the shops, dining and nightlife of Las Olas Boulevard.
