We had to go to Fort Lauderdale on business and needed to find a place to stay on short notice. We were guided to the Tropi Rock and the Tropi Rock rocks. A very sweet, funky (and I mean funky in a good way) plant engulfed hideaway in the midst of corporate hotels and motels. This is not your luxury...

My first disclaimer: I have gone to Fort Lauderdale several times for meetings at the Convention Center. Up until now I dreaded going there.
This hotel is definitely off the beaten path, at least for business travelers. It's further north in Fort Lauderdale beach, and doesn't look like much from the outside. However- the location turns out to be great,...

Excellent small hotel. Different - palm trees line the pool, pantile roofs, tinkling fountains, and a great host in Mick.
Phoned on the off-chance of staying the day before and Mick was so accommodating and sorted a room for us. Room very nice with large fan. One block from the beach, easy parking, coffee on the go - sort of...

We have stayed at this little gem probably 8 or 9 times and have always had a good experience. Whether or not you enjoy your stay probably depends on your expectations about this hotel, as it has both pros and cons. In my opinion, the pros far outweigh the cons and make this an ideal spot to stay on Fort...

FloridaXPat,
We love hearing from returning guests. Thanks so much for making the TropiRock your stay of choice when in Ft. Lauderdale. We agree with you, this resort has far more pros than cons. We care about keeping a well-maintained hotel and renovations are soon to come, but we pride ourselves on the friendly service guests can expect at North...

Needed a one night stay after a cruise. Loved the location. Mick is an excellent host. Beautifully redone, well thought out grounds and artisitic custom decor in every room - one of the best makeovers of an old hotel I have ever seen. The age of the hotels and overcoming that were probably my basis and main area of concerns...

For2une,
Thanks for staying at the TropiRock. We're glad you enjoyed the artistic custom decor that makes the resort so unique. You are right, accomodations in Ft. Lauderdale can get pricey. The TropiRock offers some of lowest rates in the area, especially considering the location-just a 3 minute walk from the beach. We hope you will visit us again soon,...

Enjoyed our stay here! The proprietor Mick was very friendly and gave us good advice on where to go for food. It was a bit of a walk to the main strip. The pool was surrounded by greenery which made it like an oasis!
The rooms are quite basic but met your needs.

EssexSeasider,
We're pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Thanks so much for choosing the TropiRock. You'll be glad to know that the next time you come you won't have to walk too far to the main strip to get food. The Plaza, an outdoor bistro area where guests can enjoy good food, refreshing cocktails and a vibrant social scene, is...

Virtually everything was great. Sitting at the pool you'd think you were in a rainforest, not a block from a major highway. The GM is the definition of customer focus and service. My only complaint is the maintenance crew. At about midnight on one of the last nights of my stay, apparently they thought it would be a good idea...

Robmdietz,
Thank you for staying at the Tropirock! You are right, the lush vegetation that surrounds this awesome resort gives guests the impression of being on a tropical island, and not just one block from the beach, restaurants, shops and active social scene. We will look into the maintenance issue and will resolve that asap. We hope you can come...

What is going on here? I was FOOLED by the "great" reviews this place has. THERE IS NOTHING GOOD HERE BUT LOCATION! I felt like I was part of The Cartel staying somewhere in Colombia! I walked in, the owner was a great person, he had a huge dog hanging out at the office, he explaint to me all of...

My wife and I are relocating to Ft. Lauderdale and needed a place to stay while we did our house hunting and shop the area. We came upon Tropi Rock by walk-in. We were greeted by Mick, the proprietor and his dog, Ollie. Mick has a pair of exquisite blue eyes, a natural kindness from the heart and the easiest...

Drew B,
We hope that you'll visit us again, even after you become a Fort Lauderdale resident! North Beach Village has numerous hotels, tenant & vacation rentals so just let us know whenever you need temporary housing, we'd love to help!
Take care,
NBV

First let me say the Tropi-Rock is a unique property with some things going for it: price, location (near the beach), nice grounds, free parking and friendly manager among the positives. However, I think one might have their expectations skewed by some of the reviews on this site. It is basically a no frills room at a good rate. Don't...

PSapphire,
We are sorry to hear that you were not 100% satisfied with the TropiRock Resort. However, your review was actually quite accurate. It has a great location (less than 5 minute walk to the beach, restaurants and active social scene), the rates are affordable, the grounds are well-kept and the manager, Mick is one of the friendly people you...
