Great location
We enjoyed our stay. I would stay here again just for the convenience to everything. Shopping, restaurants and the beach all within steps of the hotel. You don’t need a vehicle for anything.

Perfect small resort
I am so glad we decided to cxl our stay at the Westin and go with Margaritaville Beach Resort. Outstanding staff and service. Good food and drinks. We did All Inclusive which was a good choice for us. Amazing views from the hotel and beach. You can walk to the Playa Flamingo Marina as well. Love the pool area. Was concerned there could be too many kids in the pool area, but that was not the case during our stay. There are many things to do near the resort. I highly recommend Kayak fishing, although its best to go very early in the morning during the windy season.

Pictures on hotels.com are not what you get! Booking through the hotel.com is more expensive than through the hotel $150 less. Very disappointing. People there were awesome! Allison was awesome with the issues

The staff at Margaritaville are excellent. Any questions you have or anything you need, they always come through. Omelets made for you each day and chairs brought down to the beach on request. A minute or less walk to a beautiful beach that is never crowded. Can't wait to return.

The only one star I took off is for food. Breakfast buffet is really limited to bread, eggs, rice, some weird options and sausage. Positive side you can order omelet at no additional charge, and there were fruits every day, that saved us. A la karte menu was okeish, nothing special but prices are high.
The hotel is located right at the Flamingo Beach, it’s very convenient, service was great!

Property is small so missing some amenities of larger resorts. Dining options were limited but food was good. Lobby area was nice and had comfortable places to sit but they need a bar area without having to go to the pool area. Room was comfortable. Air conditioning was cold and worked great. Large shower but need a ledge or seat to be able to put shampoo, etc on.
