Frommer's Review

Considered by many to be one of Florida's most romantic resorts, the Victorian-style Olde Marco Inn & Suites dates from 1883, when Capt. Bill Collier built it on the Calusa Indian Grounds. While maintaining its historical charm, the place has been remodeled and updated, and now has 51 one- and two-bedroom, two-bathroom suites decorated with a tropical flair. Six large penthouses on the fifth floor overlooking the Gulf are worth the splurge. In addition to stellar service, the inn has two of the area's nicest restaurants, including Cafe de Marco . But the best amenity, hands down, is the private 38-foot catamaran that sails guests to serene, unspoiled beaches on and around Marco Island. These trips are complimentary and include beach chairs and towels. Evening cruises with wine, beer, soft drinks, and appetizers are also available, but for a nominal fee. Couples looking for a first, second, or third honeymoon should stay here, without question.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; outdoor pool; fitness center; spa; concierge; limited room service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
