Marco Island Marriott Resort & Golf Club

Frommer's Review

Marco Island is far from Disney World, so if you plan to bring the kids while you experience the utmost in R & R, the sprawling Marco Island Marriott will make sure they're entertained with activities, from watersports and Everglades excursions to bingo, Frisbee, and dive-in movies (watch from the pool). Parents can play, too, or they can opt for the hotel's convenient nanny service. A $55-million renovation has spruced up the guest rooms, restaurants, and lounges and added a par-72 golf course just 7 minutes away, as well as a 24,000-square-foot Balinese spa. Luxuriously furnished and decorated, the spacious accommodations range from hotel rooms to two-bedroom suites. All have balconies or patios with indirect views of the Gulf. If you don't want to be bored during your Marco Island sojourn (a common affliction after too much of the pool or beach), definitely stay here, where there actually are things to do off -- and on -- the beach.
