My team and I enjoyed working and staying at the property recently, and the staffing and logistics were terrific! Upon arrival, we were cheerfully greeted and escorted to our designated areas. The banquet and catering managers were attentive and responsive to our needs, allowing for a flawless time at the property. I highly recommend this hotel property for private, corporate, and social events. Its proximity to the airport and fine dining, especially the onsite Olive and Sea restaurant, offers a spectacular ambiance with great food + views of the intercoastal. Being in the footsteps of the newly renovated convention center, this property is an ideal place for anyone to stay.

We cannot recommend this venue enough. The food is fantastic, reception spaces (ball room and outdoor areas) are stunning and the team was very easy to work with. Hands down the greatest part of the venue is the day of coordinator, Lauren. We loved working with her and she made our day so special.

The Fort Lauderdale Hilton Marina did a beautiful job holding our wedding reception! Our contact Lauren Culbertson was amazing! Lauren was very responsive and extremely helpful! Our wedding day could not have gone as smooth as it did without her! The food is amazing! Their wedding package is awesome! Very competitive to other vendors in the area. We loved that our reception was at a hotel so our guest could have the chance to stay the night or make a vacation out of our wedding! We highly recommend this venue! It’s a hidden gem!

I cannot say enough about how amazing the hotel was. We live in VA and got married in FL so as you can imagine, planning was difficult. THe hotel and their staff made every step easy and convenient. The food was amazing and perfect, the service was awesome and they even recommend excellent vendors which made things even easier. I enjoyed working with everyone at the hotel and it was a magical, beautiful day made easier with their expertise. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Was a half desitination wedding. Lots of people stayed at hotel. Passed out out of town boxes to guest. had ceremony, reception and post wedding brunch there. They were very good at adjusting the menu, drinks and venue to accommadate my needs and what I "the bride" wanted. The caterer was amazing and great to work with. Made everything seemless and I didn't have to worry about anything the day off.

Hi had my wedding at the Hilton Marina hotel on 1/22/11. Everything was perfect and the hotel staff coordinated extremely well with my other vendors. The wedding planner at the hotel was accommodating and kind, working with our budget to ensure that I could afford having my wedding at this venue. The hotel decor is modern and expensive looking so I didn't think I could have my wedding here. She was flexible and changed the entire menu so that the services would fall within my budget. All my guests were very impressed and my husband and I had such a great time. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone. The hotel property and surrounding area are very well maintained. I could not afford to have a beachfront wedding but now I'm glad that I didn't. The marina and intercoastal views were spectacular and we avoided having random strangers stare at our reception by not having it on the beach. The waterfront homes on the marina were a very nice view.

Wish I could do my wedding here all over again! It was PERFECT. All my guests (110 pp) were raving about the quality of the food and how beautiful the hotel and ballroom were. Working with Gaylene (catering mgr.) was amazing. The hotel's professionalism and GREAT service made my wedding venue something I did not have to stress about. Everything was taken care of, and our parents and us felt like VIPs. In addition, the hotel adapted to our requests for specific "cultural" foods.
Our wedding reception went above and beyond our expectations.
