Quick Verdict: Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa vs Nobu Hotel Miami Beach

When to choose Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa: pick the Marriott if you want a family-oriented resort with a long private beach, a large kids' program, multiple casual and formal dining outlets, big event space, and a very large spa.

When to choose Nobu Hotel Miami Beach: pick Nobu if you want a smaller, design-forward Miami Beach experience tied to the Nobu restaurant brand, with multiple outdoor pools and a more lifestyle-oriented scene in Mid Beach.

  • Located on Collins Ave in Mid Beach, close to the Miami Beach Boardwalk and Fontainebleau area.

  • Within a short drive of Lincoln Road and other Miami Beach neighborhoods.

Choose Nobu for a Miami Beach location that puts you between North Beach and South Beach scenes with boardwalk access.

  • About 650 rooms with many room types (Deluxe rooms, oceanfront balconies and multiple suites).
