I stay here frequently when working in nearby Port Charlotte, and it is always a pleasant stay. Check-in is easy on the Marriott app, although I find it sometimes annoying with buisness stays because they do not always check you fully in or provide a mobile key until an incidental credit card is provided in person on arrival. There must be a way to do that on the app to avoid having to go to the front desk. The front desk staff, however, is excellent. They are always smiling and welcoming, day or night. The entire team is really great. Marriott Elites are welcomed. Upgrades are provided when available (the hotel is often booked either due to high season or events like weddings). The rooms are cozy with a comfortable amount of space. There is a separate small sitting area as well as a designated desk area in the room. There is a full length mirror and lots of hooks in addition to a standard wardrobe closet. The tv is large with a fair amount of cable channels as well as easy access to streaming with Netflix or Prime etc. There is a small fridge and microwave in the room in addition to the standard Keurig coffee machine. Tea bags and coffee bags are provided in addition to a bottle of water daily. The bathroom is spacious. They provide nice thick bath robes. The toiletry products are not special (a bit cheaper in quality to me), but they will do. The harbor side rooms and the corner rooms are extra special for nice views. There are also a few rooms that have a small balcony. The balcony is nice to further enjoy the view, but it is tiny and probably not worth booking unless there is not much of an additional expense . Housekeeping is daily and the service is pretty good. There is a small gym with a few free weight and the typical cardio machines- decent. There is a small pool. The Harbor is adjacent to the hotel and a beautiful area for early morning or evening strolls. The Dockside Grill restaurant in the lobby has a nice selection of food and the staff is friendly. The drinks at the bar are great when you want to relax in the evening, although it can get crowded. There is no room service available, which is the only thing missing in my eyes to give this a true resort feel. I would quicker utilize Uber Eats after a long day of work rather than order take out from the restaurant. That’s a real shame because the lobby restaurant is actually quite good. There is a Tiki Bar is in the back parking lot of the hotel. It’s a fun option if you have the time. Because the Tiki Bar is popular, however, it does often make parking close to the hotel a challenge, particularly on the weekends. They do have an overflow area that is sectioned off just for hotel guests. This is great for guaranteed parking, but it is in the dirt! A parking attending in their front lot to enforce parking there for hotel patrons only would be helpful, particularly on the weekends. The area overall is a pretty fisherman village and the hotel is within walking distance to lots of trendy local restaurants. Publix and Starbucks are also a quick drive away. The bridge right outside the hotel takes you quickly to Port Charlotte. This is my go to whenever in the area! Highly recommended.

“great service”

Because I changed my reservation a couple of times, there was some confusion. I was having some difficulty in resolving my issue. Fortunately Sara must have heard my frustration from the back room.

Because I changed my reservation a couple of times, there was some confusion. I was having some difficulty in resolving my issue. Fortunately Sara must have heard my frustration from the back room. She immediately got involved, and resolved the issue. Because of her, I will always stay at Four Points when were in the Punta Gorda area. William Gorman
