Oyster Review Summary

Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators.

Pros

  • Beautiful courtyard pool with Intracoastal Waterway view
  • Bright rooms with Frette sheets
  • All rooms have mini-fridges, some have microwaves
  • Well-kept grounds with plenty of spots for lounging
  • All rooms have flat-screen TVs and DVD players
  • Free Wi-Fi and free parking
  • Private water taxi dock
  • The Secret Garden fine dining restaurant open only to guests and club members

Cons

  • Not directly on the beach (about a 3-minute walk crossing busy streets)
  • Small rooms
  • Bathrooms are small, with no countertops

Bottom Line

The quiet, romantic 18-room Pillars Hotel feels like it could be someone's waterfront home, with its well-kept grounds, casual, beach-y decor, lovely terraces, and bright but small rooms and bathrooms. The hotel's highlight is its courtyard pool, which features a beautiful view of the Intracoastal Waterway, but those wanting to stay directly on the beach may consider the Pelican Grand Beach Resort, which is larger but has a similar beach-cottage feel in the rooms and restaurants.

  • 40-minute drive to Miami International Airport
  • 3-minute walk to the beach
  • 7-minute drive to Las Olas Boulevard, a strip of restaurants, bars, and clubs
  • 7-minute drive to downtown Fort Lauderdale
  • 40-minute drive to Miami
  • 1-hour drive to Palm Beach

 Bottom Line

The quiet, romantic 18-room Pillars Hotel feels like it could be someone's waterfront home, with its well-kept grounds, casual, beach-y decor, lovely terraces, and bright but small rooms and bathrooms. The hotel's highlight is its courtyard pool, which features a beautiful view of the Intracoastal Waterway, but those wanting to stay directly on the beach may consider the Pelican Grand Beach Resort, which is larger but has a similar beach-cottage feel in the rooms and restaurants.
