I posted this a while back. We were there on 09/18/08.

 

Marriott Doral Resort

OK, for those wanting to know if it is as bad as some of the reviews, the answer is NO. It was actually rather nice. We had a one night stay precruise. Received a good deal via priceline. No sign of mold or bugs as some reviews stated. The grounds were lovely, secure and private. Our room was clean & comfortable and the staff was very nice. They actually sent up a bottle of Champagne and sweets after finding out that we were celebrating our anniversary. What a surprise!:D No, it's not South Beach or Bayside, but it was perfect for us. It allowed us a chance to shift gears before boarding the ship without the hustle & bustle of the more tourist laden spots. Boy did we need that after dealing with the likes of Ike! No, it's not new and flashy. More of a cottage feel w/balcony rooms overlooking courtyards and golf courses. We did not dine there so no comment on the food, but cocktails were expensive & STOUT. Do check your bill when you check out since they automatically add a $16.00 fee for unlimited internet access. Simply let them know that you did not use it and they will remove the charge. Enjoy your stay!

The Doral is a VERY nice resort.

 

Another reason I think trip adviser reviews are a crock.
