Margaritaville Island Hotel Reviews
Pros:
Clean, up to date and friendly staff is spread through many of the reviews and at a 91% above average rating, that is what you would expect to read. The guests staying in the summer (warmer months) really enjoyed the rooftop pool area. Sitting out on the deck of the Margaritaville Restaurant was fun. It was really nice sitting on the balcony and watching people walk by at The Island.
Cons:
A few of the guests mention that the Customer Service and friendliness of the staff could be improved a bit. The biggest downside is the Parking because it is quite a hike. If you can afford to add the Valet Parking, it makes it much nicer.

What is the Best View?
It really depends on what you are looking for. If you enjoy “people watching”, the Village views are great to view everyone as they pass by. If quiet is what you are looking for, get one of the River View rooms.
Rooftop Pool
Yes, you read that one correct! There is only one pool at the Margaritaville Island Hotel and it is on the roof. Considering, this Resort is located in the heart of The Island, it makes sense that the pool should be shielded from the every day traffic that comes by. What better way to do this than to put the pool on the roof. Take a look at the Margaritaville Hotel Pooland amenities.
Parking
Self-Parking is free next to the hotel and in The Island parking lot for Guest of the Hotel. Valet Parking is available as well for a small fee. Some guests feel it is well worth paying the little extra for Valet so you do not have to walk so far back and forth from the Margaritaville Island Hotel.
Transportation
Since you are located in The Island complex, all you have to do is walk outside of your door and you are in the midst of all it has to offer. For any other sightseeing, the Fun Time Trolley, picks up and drops off right in front of the Hotel Lobby. This makes it very convenient to park you car and not have to drive while visiting.
