Mediocre
We just returned from Lago Mar 2/27/09 with mixed reviews. The beach was very nice and staff very friendly. It's all the other things that are lacking from a so called 4 star hotel. We were verbally assaulted at the pool for taking...

Excellent
The Lago Mar is among the finest hotels I've ever stayed at. My family got a 3-bedroom suite with ocean views and it was well worth every penny of it. The staff is really friendly and they make every effort to ensure that your vacation is perfect. ...
I loved everything except the rude and arrogant German manager who worked the front desk. He was short, discourteous, gossiped and made fun of guests, and was generally someone I wanted to avoid at all costs. I am a sophisticated 53 yo professional ...
We stayed here in 7/06 and thought it was a real gem! We loved the quaintness of its Olde Florida Feel! The Private Beach alone is worth the stay. We like the Privacy of the Old Style Rooms with Outside Entrance. We had an Ocean Front suite and it...

The hotel and grounds are excellent! There are two pools, but screaming kids are a disruption. There is an older pool on the beach, my suggestion is to make that an adult only pool, and the sport pool could accomodate anyone, kids or adults. I spent Memorial Day 2008 there, and had to call the pool staff because of kids throwing balls and frisbees, and causing a complete disruption.....(and I am not an old fogey!). If parents cannot control the kids, then the pool staff needs to monitor what is going on. Evidently this hotel also has club members, some of them were disgusted and left. Not a place for a romantic interlude, although the hotel lends itself to that.

Lago Mar is an older hotel with excellent service and an excellent location with a beautiful private beach. It is located in the Harbor Beach neighborhood of Fort Lauderdale which is an expensive residential area. A car is must have for this hotel as there are no shops and restaurants within walking distance. The staff were all very friendly and helpful in all ways. There are no lifeguards at the beach but the public Fort Lauderdale beach, which has lifeguards and is just as nice, is just north of it and can be reached by walking on the beach or a 5 minute drive. We stayed there 5 days and enjoyed our stay. There is a nice playground for kids which our toddler enjoyed. Although the room was very clean and luxurious, the hotel could probably use some more renovations and maintenance. The indoor corridors smell musty; typical of an older hotel and pool could use re-finishing. So if you are used to everything being brand new and in perfect condition you may not be happy here. But if you are not that picky you will think it is a very charming place.
