The staff were all very friendly, casual, and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. It’s a buzzy area that feels akin to an American version of the Boulevard de la Croisette. The hotel is located right across the street from the beach, flanked by other hotels, restaurants, and some nightlife. The signature massage is certainly a transportive journey with aromatherapy, singing bowls, traditional Swedish techniques, and Thai-inspired stretches-be prepared for a massage like no other, but one that will leave you completely satisfied. Just like most other elements of this property, the spa is inspired by Fort Lauderdale and its many waterways. There’s a reason why it’s hard to snag a reservation in the indoor-outdoor restaurant. Everything on chef Salomon’s menu oozes with creativity and technical skill. Don’t miss the Jerusalem bagel topped with “Urfa-thing” seasoning, best enjoyed when dipped in the to-die-for truffle hummus, or the wood-smoked skewers that arrive atop a smoking grill and topped with edible flowers. The star of the show for locals and visitors alike is the playful menu at Evelyn’s, which puts on a show of American classics with an Eastern Mediterranean twist, courtesy of chef Brandon Salomon. The ocean view added to the ship-like atmosphere of the space with its dark wood-accented furniture, wicker headboard, taupe woven wallpaper, and the marine-inspired lights in the otherwise modern bathroom. The rooms are very spacious-mine had a large terrace with views of the Atlantic. And when you spend time in the 22-story tower, which is in the center of everything Fort Lauderdale has to offer, you’ll find chic families and couples who clearly call this hotel their neighbor. The restaurant is even named after a famed socialite from the area, Evelyn Fortune Bartlett. The interiors and guest rooms, designed by Tara Bernerd, the British designer behind Conrad, Los Angeles and the upcoming Rosewood Munich, reflect the nautical history of the city through sweeping wooden details and wicker headboards, and also the natural environment with soft hues of blues and pinks. But the real reason to choose the Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale is Evelyn’s, the onsite Eastern Mediterranean restaurant by Chef Brandon Salomon.Ī hotel that appeals to its city just as much as those it's hosting, the Four Season Fort Lauderdale seeks to be an homage to the sometimes overlooked south Florida city. For approachable beachfront elegance that is perfect for families, business travelers, and staycationers.
