Pleasent hotel all that you could need but why do they charge guests that have already paid - for the privilage of sitting on a sun lounger with shade? My husband has Altzheimers and needs to be kept comfortable and cannot sit in bright sunshine, we didn't spend a lot of time round the pool as we were visiting family.... More

We spent three nights here and it was good. The rooms were clean and everyone was friendly. Only thing that bothered me was that we couldn't put our own umbrella and set up infront of the hotel because it was for the "rentals only" so we had to move to the front of another hotel next door. The lady that... More

When we arrived they put us in a room next to the dumpsters. One of the beds was not done, so we had to wait for housekeeping. Next morning apparently one room opened up, so they moved us but gorgot to let everybody know about it. S, no housekeeping service was done after we arrived after a long day. So,right... More

I just came home today form five glorious days in Fort Muderdale. I loved the Ocean Sky. I found the staff very friendly and helpful. I loved the pool area, there was plently of lounge chairs and a wonderful pool. Also loved the closeness to the beach. I love photography and this location provided me with some beautiful pictures of... More

The Hotel is right on the beach and convenient to both Ft. Lauderdale and Lauderdale by the sea activities. The newly renovated balconies off the rooms are really nice and we enjoyed the in room coffee on our balcony every morning! The pool is big and steps away is the beach. The hotel is a great value compared to other... More

I don't know what others are complaining about, but my wife and I loved our recent stay at Ocean Sky and we're pretty picky. The hotel was very clean, with a beautiful lobby and manicured grounds, large pool and very friendly staff. Our room was #517 facing South and provided a decent view of the ocean from the balcony which... More

Great hotel! Desk staff was wonderful!!! Was a bit nervous when I read some of the reviews. Not sure what people were so unhappy about. Rooms were clean, adequately sized. Beds very comfortable. Pool and beach are beautiful. A couple of hints. Get room on high a floor as you can. We were on the 7th closest towards the ocean.... More

Basics for this hotel: rooms were nice; bathrooms are SMALL and had no ventilation; towels not only dried you, but exfoliated you with their roughness (LOL!); breakfast in the restaurant (there is an outdoor and indoor seating area) was overpriced; nice beach and pool area. Inexpensive compared to the other beach hotels in the area. Served its purpose for a... More

We arrived the weekend of April 20-22- the first major rainy stormy weekend. The hotel was clean and well maintained. The rooms were average in size and accommodations. I didn't like having to valet my van and leave my keys with someone else. I got used to it though and we got around okay. There was a big wedding that... More

Thank you for the review. The street in front of us is a quiet one but it does have two way traffic. Our balconies now have high dividers so it is not easy at all to go from balcony to balcony. I am very sorry about the car getting wet in that bad storm that we had. Please contact me... More

Obviously, not a 5 star hotel, but it's very clean, new carpets, no bad smell of any kind anywhere in the hotel, location is excellent, walking distance to a grocery store, donut place and Mc Donald’s for morning breakfast/coffee, restaurants (Italian, Greek, pizza place...) - it's Florida and you don't need a car. It's located in a very nice street... More
