Absolutely memorable!

Our stay this past week was a complete joy. The Walk About Beach Resort was our favorite part of our Florida trip. My friends found this hotel online and were quickly convinced it was a good choice for us...we were looking for a small low key, unique beachfront property. This property is located right on the beach. The Tiki Bar and sand are literally steps from your front door.

The Walk About was immaculately clean and very quiet. It did livin' up in the evenings and had a great vibe on the weekend with live music. The rooms were huge, uncluttered and stylish. Not having a telephone and clock in the room added to our relaxation. We chose the Tower Suites that had phenomenal views, we were on the second floor and could see all the action at the Tiki Bar and beach just by stepping out our front door.

The Walkabout is close to good restuarants, and many attractions. Any other activity that we chose offered to pick us up so having a car was completely unnecessary. Tamara's recommendations were great and enhanced our stay. We highly recommend Goirgio's Bakery for any meal with great views of the intercoastal. The staff was acommodating in everyway, we very much at home and very welcome. Tamara the property manager gave us some insight of the properties history which just added to the value and character. I travel with work and have stayed in many great places throughout the states. If you enjoy simplicity, class, and quiet the Walk About Beach Resort And Tiki Bar would be my top recommendation. We will certainly return!

Lovely Boutique Resort

I can say enough about this place! Where to begin....the staff was great very accomodating in every way. We were greeted by the manager (Tamara) who by the way has a very cool 3 legged Beagle who will melt your heart. She gave us the low down on the area everything is within walking distance. The property is amazing and very well kept. The rooms are tastefully decorated with all the comforts of home. We had an amazing oceanview and the beach was simply heaven on earth. The Tiki Bar had a nice mix of folks from the local area to tourists from all over the country. There was a couple from Poland that were very memorable. was a nice mix. The live music on the weekends will have you thinking you're sitting in the keys but Hollywood and the broadwalk have much more to offer. The Walk About Beach Resort is truly a unique place one I would highly recommend to all visiting the Hollywood/Ft lauderdale area.

• Pros: Beachfront, extremely clean, huge rooms, great management

You never know what you're going to get when looking for places through the internet. The Walk About Resort and Tiki Bar is exactly what you see on the websight and MORE! The staff is incredible, more than accommodating in every aspect of our stay. The rooms are impecable in style and cleanliness. The location is perfect beachfront and the water was to die for. We had a blast at the Tiki bar listening to live music all weekend long. They had the best 4th of July specials on the broadwalk and we took full advantage. My kids could skate, ride bikes, play on the beach all day and we always had peace of mind with all the other families enjoying the holiday weekend. The fireworks were incredible....I can't rave enough about this place. A special thanks to the entire staff....they were great! I've booked my family for Labor Day and over the Christmas holiday...can't wait to get back.

• Pros: Location, location,location
