The Pillars Hotel

This hotel doesn't look much from the front but it has a lovely courtyard garden and pool area with amazing views over the water. It isn't a cheap option but worth it for a special treat. Rooms are quite small and the air conditioning just wouldn't cool off enough at night. Staff are helpful and there seem to be a lot of them. We had a wonderful but expensive dinner, almost $200 for two courses and a bottle of wine. Waiting staff were a bit slow and nobody came after mains so we didn't bother with dessert. The hotel is only a short walk from the beach front area with loads of places to eat and drink and a lovely place to walk in the evening.

The Pillars is a boutique hotel on the inter coastal waterway. The breakfast was served on the dock facing various grand mansions. This was like paradise! Relaxing by the pool was so comfortable and the staff could not do enough for us. Overall a perfect holiday.

quiet, and delightful

This is a gem in the middle of Ft. Lauderdale's busy high rise landscape. The entire experience was most enjoyable. From the friendly greeting at check-in, the attentive staff, the fantastic barkeep, the fabulous food to the quiet setting yet within short walking distance to the beach, restaurants and shopping, all was perfect for our special anniversary get-away. The only caution I'd make is if one is unable to climb stairs, request a room on the first level as I never spied a guest elevator. Enjoy.

Lovely hotel tucked into a great neighborhood. The staff was wonderful!
