The lively five-star Marriott has a superb seafront location by the LarcoMar shopping mall, ideal for watching paragliders floating outside the glass walls. The rooms sparkle and sport every amenity (though wi-fi costs extra): think minibar, plasma TV and whirlpool bath. There is also an executive lounge, restaurants, a bar, a casino and an open-air tennis court, sauna and pool.
Those nervous about their next flight can check the departure and arrival board in the lobby.
