Legacy Hot Tub Hotels frontmatter markets in-room jacuzzi suites under the prior Royal Beach Palace branding; TripAdvisor amenity listings do not confirm in-room whirlpools — verify with current management (The Garden Hotel & Resort) at booking. Recent 5-star reviews consistently name Tony from the entertainment team and Mary at the pool bar: ‘This hotel is truly a hidden gem in Fort Lauderdale. This is our second stay, and we always have an amazing time. Tony from the entertainment team and Mary at the pool bar bring such great energy and are incredibly attentive.’ Pool games praised. A 4th of July 5-star: ‘Great location great atmosphere rooms were great w balcony and the value was even the best. But what we enjoyed the most was Tony he kept us entertained doing games and of course the dj!’ Best for couples and families wanting a smaller-boutique Fort Lauderdale Beach base with entertainment, pool games and mini-golf on the quieter north-beach end.
