This place is gourgeous. I found on Google Maps searching for a place to eat near Marco Island South Beach. The turkey sandwich is big and very delicious. The view is outstanding and service is very friendly. Do recommend it when in the area. I did not use the parking lot inside Marriott Vacation Club.

Went to this place for the views, which are nice but were partially blocked by trees unfortunately. Food was good but the grouper portion size felt a bit small. Drinks were great. Server was nice and offered advice on the menu. Service itself started fast but ended a bit slow. If you’re staying at the Marriot here and can’t decide between this place and pinchers like we were, I’d say pinchers is better food but this place has them beat in views.

Very disappointing experience. We ordered the steak rice bowl but there was absolutely no chimichurri flavor and it wasn’t even topped with chimichurri sauce. The burger was bland and lacked seasoning.
The food is extremely overpriced for the small portions, and I honestly felt ripped off. The drinks were just as underwhelming — I ordered a $13 cocktail, which was served in a cheap plastic container instead of a proper cocktail glass, with a tiny amount inside. The drink itself was blah and not worth the price at all.
To make matters worse, there is no sunset view. The view is completely blocked by overgrown trees, so you’re paying premium prices for no view, bland food, and mediocre drinks.
Overall: No view, overpriced food, bland flavors, and underwhelming drinks. Would NOT recommend. There are better restaurants nearby with much better quality food, fairly priced and better view.
TOTAL WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!

Very inconvenient from the road side. We followed all the obvious signage and it was a long haul to to exit. They wouldn’t let us in there so we had to walk all around the building to the official entrance. There restroom locations were pretty inconvenient. The staff was very friendly and helpful, but the kitchen/cook needed improvement. They had a Prime Rib special on the menu. I was very tempted. I noticed at the table next to us, someone ordered the special. Pretty quickly he sent it back to the kitchen. I asked him why he sent it back. He’d ordered it done medium. He said it was delivered to the table “more than well done”. I ordered it anyway, but rare-to-medium-rare. It came out to me medium. I kept it, ate it, but it was a bit tough. Don’t set high expectations and you’ll probably enjoy it.

We got the bloody Mary’s to start. They were $13.50 and small. The waitress was nice but forgot our 10% discount and had to wait a while to correct it. The food was very good and it was nice looking at the water. Overall nice.

Stilts is the Marriott’s beachfront open-air restaurant next to the pools with direct sightline to the ocean. Food is decent – 3.5 to 4-star. But you’re paying for the views and convenience of not leaving the resort. Good selection of drinks at the bar. No generous liquor pours.

Also the poolside food option at Crystal Shores. Very tasty drinks! Highly recommend. We had lunch and a few dinners from there. Kids loved the chicken tenders and sliders. Pineapple salsa with tortilla chips, yummy, a fave. Hummus and veggies also very good. The Ceasar salad was a good to all week. Take out dinner for our family at night was a huge win. Grilled grouper was a bit inconsistent. Delicious one night, salty another. Fish tacos were really good (it was a good grouper night). Stilts is a good option if you want to eat on the resort, but go with a modest expectation. Overall we enjoyed their food and service day and night. Staff was REALLY fun.

Terrible. Everything was so bland. We paid $50 less at a nearby sushi place for a much better meal for a comparable amount of food. Do not recommend at all. Even the view of the beach was blocked by foliage. Go somewhere else. You won’t regret skipping this one.

Great restaurant and bar by the pool and by the beach with amazing views. Menu is okay not many options however we were 4 and all was good. Tacos with grill grouper were outstanding. Service was good. They had one special cocktail on the menu and not longer available, something to improve at least to let the customers know in advance however not an big issue but an improvement at this great place.

You cant beat a dinner this close to the beach. The view was beautiful and the service was good. My husband got the shrimp tacos and really enjoyed them. I got the chicken fingers and french fries, they we good but nothing to write home about. The fries tasted like the oil was a little old they were fried in. But good experience overall. I posted the new menu because the one on here was not used now and I was bummed they no longer had the turkey BLT from the old menu.
