The Marina Del Rey Marriott is in a great location: right on the marina, down the street from the beach, and only 5 miles from LAX. The hotel is a full-service, modern property with 370 rooms, 124 of which have two beds. There is covered parking for $18 a day with in and out privileges, and they also offer valet parking. There’s an outdoor pool and Jacuzzi, one restaurant, a lobby bar, and a 24-hour business center. All guest rooms have high-speed Internet access for $9.95 a day.
Our room was a good size and had two beds that had down mattress pads on them. HEAVEN! I didn’t want to get out of bed. The room had a small table and nice fluffy chair, a desk with the Internet access, and a desk chair. There was a small (skinny) patio to stand on outside our sliding glass door. The bathroom was huge, just like I like it to be. The only complaint I had was that the middle elevator (there were three) was possessed and seemed to be the only one working. I swear: my room was on the seventh floor, and when I’d get into the elevator and press lobby, it would stop at every other floor in between, and no one ever got on from the other floors, a little creepy if you ask me.
The view from my room was nice. We faced the beach, not the marina.
In the morning, there were several different kinds of complimentary fresh coffee in the lobby with flavored creamers and complimentary water bottles.
I like the Marriott because it’s right near everything. It’s a hop, skip, and jump from Fisherman’s Village and the harbor cruises. There are also about 45 restaurants within 1-mile radius of the hotel. The concierge can help with fishing trips, kayak, and jet-ski rentals; restaurant recommendations; and just about anything else you can think of.
