Marco Island, FL

Kurrents is a seafood/steak restaurant on the ground floor of the Marriott Beach Resort in Marco Island, FL. We ate there the first night of our trip since we didn't much feel like leaving the resort after travelling all day. If you have a taste for high class cuisine, this is the place to go on Marco Island. It's certainly frequented by locals and guests from other hotels in the area. The food is a little more on the expensive side but it's absolutely work it! We enjoyed calamari, goat cheese fondue, and Hawaiian Ahi Tuna for starters - all were wonderful and gave great sized portions! I personally can rave about the seared Alaskan Halibut with Lobster fricassee. The only mishap of the entire evening was with me (of course). I'm certain that I was clear about the entree I wanted but received something entirely different. It still looked fabulous and I considered just keeping it but the Chef rushed my correct entree immediately. Then again, things like that don't really bother me - mistakes happen even in fine dining establishments. The care the staff took to get my entree to me asap was wonderful. It also helped I had fabulous appetizers to munch on!

If you're not afraid to drop some serious cash for a long weekend or vacation in Florida, don't hesitate to book a room at the Marco Island Marriott Beach Resort in Marco Island, FL. This Marriott is a gorgeous hotel with multiples restaurants/bars and a fabulous location right on the Gulf of Mexico. The view from the balcony is wonderful if you're waiting for the sun to set. The bar by the main pool also enjoys a little sunset celebration every evening when the sun is about to go down (think a lot of Kenny Chesney and Jimmy Buffet songs). The hotel is on the resort side of Marco Island but there are other restaurants, shops, cinemas, etc. within walking distance of the hotel. The rooms are by far the best I have ever stayed in. Everything was cleaned on a daily basis and each room offered up fridges, safes, robes, and plenty of storage room. Unless I'm wrong, every room had a balcony. Also, there are certain rooms that attach together to form a suite. We had our whole family of 7 there and utilized three rooms which the turned into one huge suite with plenty of doors for privacy! The hotel had many activities on a daily basis including sandcastle contests, tennis tournaments, water sports, etc. The beach also had chairs available for no fee! You could rent water trampolines, sail boats, etc. for nominal fees as well. Basically, the Marriott at Marco Island had it all!!
