Delicious Swampers

I thoroughly enjoyed my meal at Swampers! The Swampers burger was juicy and satisfying, paired perfectly with crispy fries. It's a must-try if you’re staying at the hotel!

Accessible Pool Area

The large outdoor pool with beach entry is fantastic for everyone! I saw friends with mobility challenges easily enjoying the water. It's a thoughtful design that adds inclusivity.

My stay at the Marriott Shoals was a mix of some fantastic elements along with a few opportunities for improvement. The staff was incredibly friendly and made us feel at home, and the views were absolutely stunning. However, the dining experience could have been better as the 360 Grille was hard to book, and some facilities appeared to be in need of maintenance. Overall, it was a pleasant getaway but with some aspects needing attention.

My stay at the Marriott Shoals was truly exceptional! The warm hospitality from the staff, especially Harrison, made my experience unforgettable. The onsite dining, particularly at the 360 Grille, was a highlight with amazing food and stunning views. However, while the rooms were nice, I felt they could have been a bit more modern to match the rest of the hotel’s charm. The overall atmosphere was vibrant, but at times, it felt a little too lively for relaxation.
