Just back today from a mini spring break trip with the grandkids. We picked the Sheraton Marina for its ease of parking and beautiful views of the bay. We stayed in connecting rooms (2 adults & 3 grands). The rooms are not huge but nice to have balcony and view. There are two buildings. We stayed at the Bay tower (versus the Marina tower). The Bay tower has bigger rooms but a much smaller pool, but it is only a short walk to the other tower. This is an older property so while it is nicely maintained, signs of its age do show. We ate one night at Roy's at the Marriott Marquis, now there is a hotel with a wow factor! The Sheraton is dowdy by comparison but in a quite comfortable way. The staff also were really nice and helpful. Since we were going to explore, we had a car so getting around was not an issue. The kids loved the zoo but also really liked Sea World and the maritime museum.

Overall then, I would recommend the Sheraton Marina especially with youngsters.
