Hotel Urbano I would consider - I wasn't quite sure what was located around it (restaurants or shops to pick up last minute items. I was hoping it was walkable so need to read some reviews). It's different than the hotels I normally stay at, but the rooms look nice and the reviews are good.
Hyatt Regency has gotten some fairly bad reviews lately and given the price difference between it and Urbano I think I'll skip out on that one.
Cambria Suites actually have great reviews. I would definitely consider them if we choose Fort Lauderdale.
I would be fine with Hyatt Place as well, but that one seems to be only slightly less than you can pay for it outright? I like Hyatt's and have stayed at one twice before, but if I'm doing undisclosed hotels (even if we are able to disclose it for sure) I'd rather I feel like I got a great deal, lol. Sorry if that sounds dumb.
Crowne Plaza Airport doesn't look like anything special from pics so I guess we'll skip that one.
Thank you so much for doing this!
Either one really. I guess same price point, but either Downtown Miami as you suggested or near the airport in Fort Lauderdale if we stay that way. :)
I'm willing to pay $200 before taxes and fees, but would prefer $200 total including taxes and fees if a nice hotel in the downtown area can be found for this price. :)
I was searching one room for 3 adults and one child. We fly into FLL, but the ship leaves from POM. So anywhere in between works so long as there is somewhere to eat and somewhere nearby to grab last minute items. Within walking distance would be best. :)
This is our second cruise. Yep by the time we get our bags and make it to the hotel 1pm sounds about right. I was planning on getting to port fairly early 10-11 if possible, but just knew we have until 3pm to board. :) We are going on Carnival Breeze.
Cost is a factor, but not the deciding one. A decent hotel with food and shops we can walk to is more important to me as well as not straying far from the line between FLL and POM to keep taxi/shuttle costs down.
Thoughts or ideas? I will of course use the board PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to book. :)
Sorry I abbreviated Port of Miami. :) We fly in to FLL though.
Thank you!
It is one night pre-cruise with my husband, myself, our two year old and my mom.
We arrive about 11am and need to be on the ship a5 POM by 3pm the next day.

Okay I found out there really isn't the type of shopping I need near hotel Urbano. Perhaps I will instead have to use Hot.wire or Price.line to book disclosed hotels if we want downtown Miami.
I'm still considering the Hyatt in Fort Lauderdale though. 17th street hotels are convenient to food and shopping. Or use their disclosed hotels to book Embassy Suites on 17th street.
Do you have a recommendation?
