nicest hotel for adults within driving distance from Ft. Lauderdale airport

My husband and I are going away without kids for my 40th. The airfare seems cheaper flying into Ft. Lauderdale.
What is the nicest hotel you can think of?
Think adults only pool, beach bar, blue water, amazing restaurants.
Thanks!

We stayed at Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville . About 10 min form Ft Lauderdale airport.
Gorgeous and brand new. Very luxurious hotel.
Not adults only but they do have an adults only roof top pool.

You cam also drive to Miami... about 45 min...if you want that. You have a ton more hotel options there

This hotel was one we were thinking of!
Is there a bar near rooftop pool?

And was the beach nice there?

Yes! License to Chill bar is up near that pool.
The beach is very nice! I prefer gulf coast beaches, but the water is so blue and warm and the beach was nice!
Rooms are stunning. Get an ocean front...worth it! Amazing views from your balcony

You are always so helpful! Can I ask one last question?
Is this hotel in walking distance to the boardwalk? If so, does the boardwalk have restaurants and other things to check out?

Yes, the boardwalk is right outside the back of the hotel. You cross over it to go to the beach.
And yes, we found a great taco place to eat there and a place for breakfast that was a lot cheaper than the hotel restaurant.
I'm sure there are other places too but we didn't go too far since we weren't there long and had our DD with us.
You can also Uber around if you want to go further.

We loved it. DD was obsessed with the one small waterslide they had in one of the pools.
The rooms are so new and fresh and pretty.
It's a very well run hotel

We probably Won’t be on a plane ride away without the kids for five more years from now. I just want to make sure I’m picking a good place. And a place with enough to do. But if the boardwalk is there it seems like there will be a variety of food and places to get drinks.

The W was really nice. We just stayed there for an overnight before departing on our cruise. About 15 minutes from the airport / to the cruise terminal.
Hotel has a really cool vibe.

I would definitely go back, but might try the Westin next time.

Loved the taco place. It was nice eating outside and looking at the beach/water.
