Four Seasons Hotel And Residences Fort Lauderdale

We stay at Four Seasons whenever we're in Fort Lauderdale, but our latest experience was truly exceptional, thanks to the incredible efforts of the staff — especially our Concierge, Jennifer. We had planned a special birthday celebration for myself & our guest couldn’t join us. From the moment we informed Jennifer, she stepped in with remarkable empathy and efficiency. She seamlessly adjusted our plans and even arranged birthday cake(s) and special amenities to ensure the days felt just as celebratory. Jennifer's genuine care and attention to detail transformed a potential disappointment into a memorable occasion. Her dedication and kindness left a lasting impression, making this stay stand out even among our previous visits. I am immensely thankful for Jennifer and the entire team at Four Seasons for turning a challenging situation into a beautiful memory. We’ll undoubtedly return and highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking outstanding service. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Beautiful and peaceful. Great location on the ocean but without any of the noise-related issues that you sometimes get at beachfront hotels. The pool area is amazing and the spa facilities are high quality. Food is both the quality and the price you would expect from such a high-end hotel. Some interactions with staff members came across as a little fake; they seem trained to give a lot of personal compliments, but that's not a huge downside!

We’ve been fortunate to visit several Four Seasons properties around the world. For my birthday this year we decided on the Ft. Lauderdale location since it’s an easy flight for us and the weather is great in April. The property is beautiful and in a great location. It just doesn’t live up to the Four Seasons brand/experience. We booked a King Ocean view room. The rooms are lovely. Bright, clean, and modern. However, I was disappointed our room had only one small sink/vanity and a very small, minimal bathroom. No bath tub. It was misleading based on the photos on the website when booking. Also, we had a very nice patio with a beautiful view of the ocean. Unfortunately, there’s constant noise from delivery trucks and commercial air conditioning units outside beneath the patio, so it’s difficult to relax on the patio let alone even hear the ocean. ||What was most disappointing was the inconsistent level of service from the employees. One day, we had excellent and attentive pool service. The other two days, we asked for refills of water multiple times and never received it. They didn’t provide any of the typical Four Seasons pool services (sunglasses cleaning, poolside snacks, etc.). It was very hot and sunny and we weren’t allowed to use umbrellas because of the wind. I know that can’t be helped, but the wind didn’t seem dangerously high at the time. On another occasion, we went to our room after spending the day at the pool and it still hadn’t been cleaned at 5pm. We also didn’t get turn down service one night and had to call the front desk to ask for it. Perhaps the most frustrating issue happened one morning when there was a plumbing issue in the bathroom. We called the front desk to report it and were told they’d send someone right up. We waited an hour before calling back and were again told they’d be right up. We then waited another 30 minutes before calling for a 3rd time. Having a functioning bathroom is an urgent need and it was disappointing to say the least. ||I know reviews like this can come across as entitled and critical. These issues may seem trivial, but when you’re paying around $1,000 a night for a room at a Four Seasons property, there are certain expectations. We enjoyed our time in Ft. Lauderdale and had a great vacation, but, unfortunately, the Ft. Lauderdale property fell short of what we expect from a Four Seasons experience and was disappointing.

Booked through Amex FHR. Upgraded to a higher floor facing intercoastal construction. First time staying at FS and it was average. Welcome amenity which was dropped off at 6pm included water, oranges and a hand written note from guests relations. No personal name. Evelyns breakfast buffet was cringe. Ate there for 7 min and left. It had minimal choices and waitress recommended ordering additional items if I wanted something better than scrambled eggs. Pools were small and beach you have to cross the street at your own risk. Beach attendants also do not care to set up unless you act like a Karen and get their attention. If your Amex FHR/aspire holder then better to cross the street and go to the Conrad.

This is a beautiful property with an excellent staff. The location is a bit quieter than the rest of Ft Lauderdale beach, which made it much more pleasant. The bed is great, with excellent sheets (which makes a big difference), and the room was new and beautifully decorated in neutral tones. I was upgraded to a suite, which had a small sitting area and two balconies with excellent views of the ocean and the intracoastal waterway. I will definitely be back at this hotel!

Had a fantastic stay at this location before heading out on a cruise. Room was spacious and beautiful. The service is always unmatched at FS properties. The pool area was amazing for our family. Such a beautiful spot and wasn’t too busy which is great. We ordered lunch around the pool and the poke bowl was phenomenal. Looking forward to our next cruise/trip to Lauderdale. Always a GREAT experience at FS.

Our stay was June 13 to June 15 , unfortunately it was less than expected. We booked with American Express Platinum and received all the benefits. Early check in complimentary upgrade and breakfast. However upon check in , nightstand draw broken, bed linen torn , patio furniture filthy and received another guest welcome amenities. As well as no Hot water and broken iron , we kindly reported it to the front desk , we received a iron 35 min later and was offered the use of the Spa to shower. As we had a important in town engagement that we were now late for we made due. The next day I received a call from the housekeeping Manager , he wanted to turn our experience around to the positive, He offered me a complimentary stay if we were willing to return, however when I received the formal invitation it was for one complimentary night after booking my next stay ? Insulting, why would pay again for a sub par experience for you to do better? It gets better, the Four Seasons had a traveling German soccer team stay as well , they were allowed to come through the lobby no shirts , no shoes and bathing suits, massage tables and coolers through the lobby and elevators ? Is this the Four Seasons?? . I’ve stayed Internationally and Domestically with Four Seasons and this is not the BRAND! Regards. Still No Apology

The property has the potential to be amazing, the staff could not be more professional and kind , unfortunately the room quality has much to be desired as my pictures show . Had I just been moved to a different room I hope this review could be more positive. We experienced no hot water two broken irons and endless time explaining the issues. As well as a traveling soccer team walking through the lobby with no shoes no shirts and towels with massage tables and cooler’s. Is this the Four Seasons? After speaking with Chris from house keeping as well as Drake from room assisting, we were offered a complimentary night on our next booking. I’m somewhat disappointed that I’m being offered a complimentary night as long as I spend more money? I would think if I paid for a two night stay at a 5 star hotel like the Four Seasons I would enjoy two nights . I did reach out to Chris from housekeeping to decline his offer and explained that per our conversation I was insulted by his misleading offer. I have yet to have a response? I booked with American Express Platinum, I received all the perks it offered, this is my issue, I’ve stayed at the Four Seasons International and Domestically many times before, things happen just address it make it correct don’t waist my time. Regards Noel Buckley

Excellent hotel, attentive staff and just a wonderful experience. I will going back. Additionally the restaurant on the 3rd floor is delicious. The pumpkin soup is out of this world.

Thank you Four Seasons for saving my trip! Initially, I had reservations to stay at The Diplomat, but the hotel was in terrible conditions with black mold in the rooms (we tried two different ones). It was also a construction site and looked nothing as it was advertised. My husband and I spent 4 hours trying to resolve the issue, which ended up in us checking out and taking a loss. I was really upset because I booked the trip to celebrate his birthday, and the day this happened was his actual birth date. After being left stranded, my husband called Four Seasons and was immediately greeted with so much kindness over the phone. The gentleman was so patient and explained the room options to us. We arrived at the hotel and treatment toward us was night and day, especially having come from such a horrible experience. We were welcomed and told how happy they were that we were there. The front desk woman was a gem and gave us two glasses of Prosecco. Then, the director of the hotel walked out and let us know that he was there for anything we needed and that he was able to give us a small upgrade. We were already thrilled with the beautiful property and wonderful service, we were not expecting anything else. We originally booked a prime ocean room, and upon walking to our room, we found that we were upgraded to an intracoastal suite. I've stayed at other 5-star hotels and this has by far, been the most breathtaking suite we have stayed in. We couldn't believe that the director called it a small upgrade. The man who also brought up our luggage was so courteous and service was top tier. Our entire stay was amazing and every time we went out, we came back to a suite that had been tidied up by housekeeping. The front desk woman also helped us make last minute reservations to Mastro's Ocean Club, as our previous reservations were at the hotel that we were going to previously stay at, and we did not want to go back there. Whenever I am in Fort Lauderdale, I will never stay anywhere but the Four Seasons hotel. Thank you so much!

I was impressed with the Four Seasons Hotel in Ft. Lauderdale. As usual with FS - you're greeted by super knowledgeable staff and a beautiful location. Generally, I feel as if the FS I have visited have larger lobbies. This one seemed tall and compact vs. spacious when it came to the lobby. I stayed in a partial-ocean view room which in contrast to the lobby was fairly roomy. The bed was comfortable, linens/towels nice, and the entire room was pristinely clean. Our balcony was the perfect breakfast nook come morning time. (I'm a huge FS buttermilk pancake lover) The service at the beach was also super helpful! I didn't know how it would work seeing as you have to cross a busy road to access the beach, but waiting there were 2 super sweet FS employees with waters, towels to set your chairs, and even sunscreen for those who forgot their own. All in all, a lovely stay. I prefer it to many hotels I've stayed at in South Florida.

The hotel is beautiful. Every staff member we came into contact with was exceptional. We stayed in a prime ocean view room that was a good size and an amazing balcony and view of the ocean. The housekeeping staff had great attention to detail. The turn down service felt like a light cleaning each night when we returned to our room after dinner. The beach service was wonderful. We will be back!

This is an absolutely beautiful hotel. I was here a few months ago and was really impressed. The outside of the hotel feels exotic, like being on an island in a faraway land. I did not eat at their restaurant, but it looks amazing. While walking through, I saw some food and it looked very unique. That was just a little odd to me though,,,,walking through the restaurant to get to the hotel part, coming from the beach. The entrance just seemed a little ordinary. Their main entrance is facing sort of a back alley street. Anyway, the pool is so great. It is just the right temperature. You can see the ocean from the pool. I was able to swim many laps until it got crowded. The pool attendant was so nice. And I love their pool towels. They are truly luxurious and very thick. I love it here and think it is the nicest hotel on the beach.

Most exclusive high end resort in Ft Lauderdale Beach. Staff is welcoming and attention to detail is the norm. Beautiful pool area, great restaurant 'Evelyn's' on property.

Obviously the most beautiful hotel in this city. The views are amazing and the food is delicious! The salad was my fav with grated parm and at 3 pm they have a dessert cart with COOKIES AND CREAM MACARON. I was legit in heaven my god!! It was so good!!! One of the best macarons Ive ever had for real. The vibe is so relaxing and the staff is very professional, kind, welcoming.

This is more than a 5 star experience and the best 5 star property I've ever stayed at. We stayed here for two nights to celebrate my mom's birthday and it was above and beyond our expectations. We really appreciated how everyone knew it was her birthday and wished her well. The concierge helped me setup a nice in room treat as well. The rooms and bathroom are immaculate. We stayed in an ocean view room and you could have sworn it was a suite. And omg the views! Evelyn's was definitely a small menu, but ever so delicious. Do not miss out on the donuts. Our server, Jena, was amazing and made sure we had a great time. Last, but certainly not least, the guys that are out helping by the pool are SO great! They're really going above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Loved the extra touches of snacks and drinks at both the beach and pool. We will definitely be back next year :)

Move over Ritz the new kid on the block has had its year to get its act together and now will soon be crowned maybe both at same time 5 stars Mobile Guide ( requires 24 hour room service which Ritz at $1000.00 does not have) and Five Diamond award . Rumors have it that AAA staff and independent advisers have been up and down A1A viewing all hotels. I expect some old favorites to lose their stars because of the lack of attention given to spruce up their properties during down period of COVID . The Four Season also hits a home run for elegant wedding receptions , lunches on the Beach and can even provide a large area directly on the beach for a wedding party. No other hotel in Fort Lauderdale is doing what the Four season is doing to cater to demanding wedding quality guests. I am uploading some photos of my resent visit . Notice the quality the public beach cabana for hotel guests...the towels , amenities... all crisp and correct. A breath of fresh air for the new level of Elegance for its demanding guest. The modern high-rise structure is an architectural splendor! and It's views of the blue ocean are breathtaking. The prices are comparable to 25 year old Ritz but the interior amenities, the new building structure, the carpets, the uniforms, the artwork, the attention to detail is a hands-down win for a future five star Mobile Guide Five diamond AAA property! Maybe soon we will learn if this hotel will be crowned the new Queen of the Beach!

When my 3 hour flight from NY to Fort Lauderdale unexpectedly and inconveniently turned into a 7 hour ordeal due to inclement weather and the forecast for the rest of the week was predicted to be stormy, I had the mind-set that the trip was going to be a complete disaster. Luckily, the second I stepped into the lobby of the Four Seasons, that feeling quickly disappeared. We were greeted graciously by front desk attendant, Unique, who was friendly, warm, and made us feel right at home. The hotel itself is impeccable and rooms are top notch. We loved all of the amenities offered and dined at Evelyn's, which was absolutely delicious. Thank you to Unique and all of the wonderful staff at The Four Seasons Ft. Lauderdale. We will definitely be back!

If I could give this hotel 10 stars I would! We stayed over the weekend for my best friends bachelorette girls trip and they went above and beyond to cater to our party. We were met by a special greeting letter congratulating her on her nuptials with the most amazing chocolates! The room was huge & spotless, all the amenities were absolutely perfect! The best part about the whole thing wasn't even the hotel it was the employees. From the moment we pulled up in our car, the valet, to the front desk, the pool guys, the people at the spa, the restaurants, ALL went above and beyond. I felt like ROYALTY the entire weekend we were there. We were waited on hand and foot everywhere we went we were welcomed with smiles and the upmost care for customer service. Just really want to say thank you. We will be back!

Johnny is an amazing bartender! He is friendly and attentive, as well as efficient and always has a smile and a great attitude. He truly deserves a raise! We will definitely be coming back, what a perfect and relaxing experience!

It's the Four Seasons so much is expected, but this property exceeds even those expectations. Particular shout outs to kitchen and crew of Evelyn's. Food is superb, service top notch. Special recognition to front desk staff of Maria and Alexandra (super helpful even on her second day on the job). And the valet manager (whose name I did not get) managed her team with a skill and professionalism that any executive would want on their team. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay which was for business but which they made feel like a mini vacation.

Perfect weekend brunch at The Four Seasons as always. The Benedict was to die for as was the omelette. You will never beat the service at the Four Seasons anywhere!!

A quiet respite in a town that can be at times loud and chaotic. We booked a king room with a city view for 3 nights. The room itself was beautifully appointed, large, and spotless. It also had a large balcony that was a surprise. The bathroom is also spacious with a large walk-in rain shower. There are 2 pools that offer beverage and food options. All the staff we encountered regardless if it was the front door, pool attendants, housekeeping, or the front desk were extremely friendly and attentive. So I did have a couple of negatives that kept it from being 5 stars. Although the location is right across from the beach, it is basically the last hotel on one end of the strip where all the action is. It is a decent walk to the night clubs and shopping area. There is limited dining options on the property. There is Evelyn's, which serves breakfast, lunch, and diner. Evelyn's also supplies the food at the pool. People rave about the food at Evelyn's but we were less than satisfied with the food we received at the pool. The other option is Honey Fitz that serves a limited menu all day in a very small space, there is some outdoor seating. The worse problem we encountered is our room overlooked the Aqua hotel across the street. Aqua has an outdoor seating area. On Thursday night there were 10 or so drunk people in that seating area until about 3am. The noise woke us up and it continued until they finally left the area at 3. We could clearly hear the noise in our room on the 5th floor.

We've come to Ft. Lauderdale for years and have stayed at The Ritz, thought we'd try 4 Seasons, SO disappointed...service was terrible on ALL levels...employees never smile or great you in passing!!! We are DEFINITELY go back to the Ritz!!! BTW, I've never taken time to do a YELP review, but had to die to disappointment here!!!

Beautiful property. I had lunch and drinks at Evelyn's on the third floor. Amazing view of the pool and beach. Matthew was a terrific bartender. I had amazing drinks over lunch. I highly recommend stopping in and checking it out. You don't need to be a guest to see it!
