I‘ve been a returning guest with this resort for ten years, and this beautiful, luxurious, relaxing and local guest house is getting better every year. I love to hang out by the pool, or just enjoy my spacious room. The beach is in walking distance, and it is close to Wilton Manors and other places around. The staff is helpful in every way. This is my favourite all male resort in Fort Lauderdale!

During these crazy Covid times the grand resort and spa has done a great job of maintaining quality and standards while focusing on safety as well. The good people at the grand were kind enough to provide me with a complementary stay to be auctioned off by equality Florida Saint Pete. As a result of Covid our famous and wonderful gala where the stay would’ve been put into our silent auction was canceled for 2020. Instead we conducted a virtual auction with all the generous donations and the one provided by the grand resort was exceptional. The wonderful three night stay and spa visit was bid on by friends of mine and I decided to join them this past weekend to visit the resort The wonderful three night stay and spa visit was bid on by friends of mine and I decided to join them this past weekend to visit the resort. I was delighted by the generosity of the resort when my friends arrive to a massive suite with a patio and kitchen that was far beyond the package that was offered. It was truly a great reflection on the resort and certainly made me and equality Florida Saint Pete look wonderful in everyone’s eyes. All I can say is 1000 thank you’s for your kindness and generosity

We bought a 3 night stay as part of a charity fundraiser and the resort upgraded us to a suite.Very nice!

So far, The Grand has been the BEST place my husband and I have stayed at in Ft Lauderdale! The grounds are clean and beautiful, the pool is refreshing, the room was updated, very nice, and very comfortable. The front desk staff was amazing!! Very attentive, and helpful. We booked a pool side room, which was perfect!The Grand is right down the street from beech. A five minute walk. You are centrally located to so much around the area! We will definitely be back soon, provided we dont move to the area first. :)

It is a fun place that can feel like gay summer camp as most of the guests are friendly. Staff is quite nice. I have been coming here for over ten years. I held back one star because I think it is time to get to more detailed maintenance of the property, update the patio furniture cushions and replace the mattresses.

Property is nice. Rooms need some updating. Staff was great.

As a first time visitor from Chicago, I could not have selected a finer place for my partner and I to stay during our visit to Fort Lauderdale. I didn’t realize that we’d be one block from the ocean beachfront or that this property was as large as it was—I tend to be rather picky and research everything before I buy. The room photos for the property don’t do justice in showing just how large the rooms are either. If you’re looking to strike a balance between fun times and relaxation, this is definitely a resort that you will not regret choosing for your stay in Fort Lauderdale.We’ve stayed many times at Four Seasons and Ritz Carlton resorts around the world. The staff here feels like “family” and the level of service is fabulous!

The RARE 5 Stars!!!!! Really a great place. Fantastic attention to detail during their renovation and they have maintained that quality / theme over the years. Every member of the staff is wonderfully knowledgeable and pleasant. If you have any questions or requests Kevin is all over it. Housekeeping is fantastic and the entire place is Super Duper clean 24/7. Extremely well located - walking distance to the beach and plenty of nearby restaurants.

Wonderfully friendly staff! Always greeted with a smile, you feel like you’re not only a guest, but part of their family. They clean and tidy so quickly, you don’t even know that they’re there.The pool area is very reminiscent of a “1990s Melrose Place” set. Breakfast was pretty good - a mix of cold and hot items. Happy hour was nice too. Jacuzzi area was a great place to meet folks and get some good recommendations on fun things to do. A good mix of nice guys from all over.

We have been staying here for many years now, and we will be back in June, we cant wait.The rooms are spacious, the servis is perfect not too much but all your needs are well taken care of. Centrally located (you can walk to Sebastian Beach) cant wait well done guys we love it there.

I have stayed here multiple times! The service is always amazing, the rooms are always very clean and everyone is so nice! I would highly recommend! The beach is in walking distance, many restaurants are close! You will not have a bad experience here! Looking forward to future visits!

They always provide an excellent experience!

I like these type of properties.They are a block off the beach and don’t have the exorbitant resort and parking fees.This place is personal and friendly.The staff helpful.I had the basic courtyard room.It was clean and just what I needed.The beach and restaurants are walkable.I will stay again.My only recommendation was the mattress was a bit soft for my back so maybe firmer mattresses.

This is a luxury hotel. Its spotless and clean. The property is very well maintained. I definitely recommend a stay there.

Amazing resort with traffic staff. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a local gay resort.

Really enjoy staying here. The spa staff is incredible oh, my only thing is I dont like the clothing optional is only in the back Courtyard where theres no Breeze and its super hot. I did enjoy the fact they had one week of clothing optional at the main pool that is the only reason they didnt get four stars

Always great service, spotlessly clean, staff that remembers you from visit to visit with a smile. The spa is a delight as well. Great place to get away and just two blocks to the beach.

This place was definitely beyond my expectations! I came not knowing what to expect and was blown away by the clean facility, professional staff, and spacious rooms. I visited to relax for the weekend and this mission was easily accomplished. About a 10 minute walk to the beach and overall safe location. Highly recommend booking a massage and body scrub with Robert at the front desk! He is incredible and will have you leave feeling 10xs better than you showed up. Super professional massage therapist and has about 20 years of experience. Dont miss the opportunity!

I stayed here for the second time and the resort never fails to surprise me. Everyone is charming and helpful and the service is exceptional. They now have a catered hot breakfast and mimosas by the pool at no charge. I took an important date there and we both rate it the best gay resort in Fort lauderdale. The free parking a block from the gay beach is a huge bonus.

This place completely filled the doctors prescription of rest, relaxation and best of all the need to be served (no sexual undertones here). They provide and do everything but wipe your..., well you get the point. Thank you Kevin, Bob, Chris, Will and Julio.

Always seems to be well maintained and never any problems with the guest when they stay. Cheap rates and great for locals family to stay

Being in this hotel five times and always is an excellent experience. I want to thanks to all the staff for being professional and kind. Specially want to thanks to Chris and Jonas and the must wonderful guy Bob who’s always behind you for make you feel special

Clean and upscale.

Spent 5 days here, the staff was attentive and they plenty of little extras like water, iced team and coffee pool side all day. Its east to order food and have it delivered poolside. We were celebrating my friends birthday, the hotel did a great job decorating the door and room! He was very surprised which is exactly what I wanted. All of the staff was very pleasant and friendly, i wasnt able to get everyones name, but Paul checked us, took us on a tour of the property with his great big smile. JD (i think) who owns the spa gave me the best massage Ive had in my life! Definately well worth it!

Didn’t stay on the property for this trip BUT, we made sure to take a trip to the spa. Always great services!! Robert my masseuse was incredible. He made my the massage custom to my liking and it was awesome!! Great job and will be back anytime we can!! Thanks!

It was interesting

Loved the friendly service here! The staff and the owner went above and beyond to make my stay here an amazingly memorable one. The resort is a piece of paradise, with nicely appointed gardens and contemporary decor. You will absolutely love the rooms and the ambiance is peaceful and rejuvenating. And did I mention that the people here are truly exceptional?!?. I will most certainly return. Definitely make The Grand Resort your next getaway vacation!

Have stayed here on two separate occasions and both stays was fantastic, the staff really will go the extra mile to make sure all guest are taken care of and are having a great time. On our last stay we had the penthouse and it was the size of a small house. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice quiet place to relax that is close to the beach and restaurants and shopping.

Great stay staff was friendly and the best breakfast with many choices available highly recommend a stay here.

The entire weekend of my stay was fantastic. I had an Amazing pedicure at the spa these, that I will be returning to have again.

Awesome resort - Great sized room and friendly staff. The property looks very luxurious with quiet sitting areas around the pool and garden areas. I will definitely recommend this property to my future LGBT clients.

Currently staying here.. staff is very friendly and accommodating. Rooms are spacious,clean and up to date. Grounds are well keep. This is a great place to rest and relax. Highly recommend for a low key vacation.

Impeccably clean, spacious rooms, amazingly friendly and knowledgeable staff... For the sophisticated gay man, this is THE destination for your dream vacation in Fort Lauderdale.

Superb establishment, friendly staff, beautiful grounds, decent breakfast hot/cold items, refreshing water all day, close to everything. Quiet, serene rooms.

Great bang for your buck

Excellent place to stay! Very clean, with a well kept pool and hot tub!

Chic, very up to date,exceeded beyond expectations; friendly and informative staff; amazing atmosphere and delicious bfast 2 begin ur day whether you just arrived early or if you actually having to say farewell

Rooms are very clean! There is a full sized refrigerator with a small kitchen area. The grounds are immaculate with tropical plants and beautiful orchids. Its about a 5 minute walk to the beach!

The pictures of hotel on internet were deceitful. While the pool area was beautiful the hotel is dirty. in my Room the sink was broken water was running from the bottom of the sink. the toilet was clogged. we did not have a phone in the room and had to walk to front desk 4 times to complain.

Not enough stars to describe our experience! Top notch in kindness, professionalism and customer service. I am a Navy vet and have traveled the world and this place is World class! All you guys are amazing. We will be coming back for vacation again NO doubt!!! The Spa services are out of this world and totally relaxing. I did not encounter ONE person with a bad attitude, or disposition. I am beyond impressed! We have vacation blues because we wanted to turn around and come right back! Love, Love Love The Grand. Perfect name, Its GRAND!!! Special thanks to John, sweetest guy ever!!!, Thomas the pro,,, so many names I remember because they made such a huge impact. Im sure this staff was carefully hand chosen because I was starting to think customer service was gone but you have restored my faith! You have it all on your property!

Great place you need to stay here

Best gay resort I have been to. Suites and pool deck rooms that I have stayed in are both lovely. I have met lifelong friends there. Very accessible to Fort Lauderdale Beach and short trip to Wilton Manors.

I have stayed at the Grand resort a hand full of times over the last 3 years and I have not had anything negative to say. The staff is very kind and welcoming and they go out of their way to make sure you are taken care of. The grounds are well kept and they maintain a very nice atmosphere.

Best Gay Resort in Fort Lauderdale. Staff is excellent.

Went in for a spa day. I received a body scrub/massage. Great staff, quite for relaxing.

J D is the best hair stylist for guys of all time. Usually, for a guys cut you are in and out. This man takes his time cutting hair making it perfect. Literally, i mean perfect. He trims the eyebrows (not a lot just enough). He takes his time with the shampoo and being he is also a massage therapist it really was a scalp massage. To top that off he used a steam towel over my face. The price --- 30.00! Being in a Resort, the time spent its an incredible price. Ive paid 45.00 to 50.00 for cuts and his is beyond that in service and technical cutting. Be ready to laugh...he is a character!Sebastian

Amazing and gorgeous. Staff is so wonderful

Service is excellent, everyone is friendly and the place is kept so clean. Daily breakfast and happy hour. Just a fun place.

The staff and the rooms are really good! I could not believe how good they are specifically for the price. I will be back for sure again and again. John is terrific. I asked him if everyone is as good as him and he said with out hesitation oh Yes He praised even the owners in his response. What a humble man. He is an example of a professional and excellent service a business can be.

Excellent staff and great place to stay close to the beach

Great customer service, super clean and very relaxing to stay, great outdoors space and the atmosphere is beyond comfortable.

Wonderful place to go for a great vacation get away. Room was clean and maintained every day. Staff is very welcoming and go out of their way to do anything to make you comfortable. This will be our third stay and we highly recommend The Grand.

Great for being nude and laying out and getting as much sex as humanly possible

Nice reception...rooms ok....very few channels on the tv....pool closed..!

We checked in 8/31/16 and left 9/4/16. I had my reservations at first as this was my first experience at a clothing-optional resort, but this place made me feel totally at home. One of the employees, Kevin, went the extra mile to give us a tour, provide us with information, and make us feel totally welcome. Some of the previous posts mention age of clientele a lot. My partner and I are in our early 30s, and we had the BEST time. Our room looked over into one of the pool and jacuzzi areas at The Worthington, and although at times it looked like they were having fun, Im not sure I would want the constant club music playing while trying to sleep. Well definitely be staying here again for our next Ft Lauderdale trip.

The Grand Resort and Spa is exactly that.... Grand! The facility is very spacious and has a great energy about it. The staff is very hospitable and attend to customize and suit your stay to your liking. Definitely a place to visit many Times over. Perhaps even maybe tonight!

Great pool and friendly staff very clean

Very clean and beautiful

Impressive in every way. Be yourself, enjoy the beach, make new friends. Great location for walking, running, dining, etc.

Love this place. love the staff. too bad its not a full clothing optional resort but I still love it.

Incredibly friendly, lovely people and a great atmosphere. The rooms are spotless, the grounds and the pool well kept. I found it relaxing, pleasant and very enjoyable.I plan to go back often.

This place has thought of everything and makes you feel very pampered. Relax and enjoy.

Rude Staff! Drove by and saw the sign advertising its award winning spa (come in for free tour) So my partner and I decided to check it out. We walked in and were greeted and taken to the back spa area...I was very impressed by the surroundings...On our way out we paused to look at the main pool when a staff member bee-lined from the office towards us to ask if we were guest. We explained no and that we were checking out the spa....His immediate response was..the spa is closed and only hotel guest are allowed on the premises you must leave...Ok..we said..he continued to tell us we must leave with a very rude and confrontational demeanor..He Didnt ask if we had questions about the spa or would like to book an appt (which we wanted too)..It was really an awful, humiliating feeling to get kicked out of a place...ESPECIALLY when the reason for being there was to check it out to see if we would like spa treatments in the future...Very sad, because it really seemed like a nice place..However after being treated so disrespectfully we have decided not to return...Dear Staff..remember there are a lot of resorts with fabulous spas in your immediate surroundings...You dont want the word on the street to be that this is a unfriendly environment. Work on your hospitality skills.

Ive been coming here since they opened and will not stay anywhere else in Ft. Lauderdale. The rooms are , yes , spotless, the staff has been consistently terrific. I consider this resort my home away from home.

The staff is overly accommodating to your needs.
