DisneyCrazy123 Posted October 27, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I am flying into FLL and thinking about staying at the Westin Diplomat in Hollywood. How much would the cab from the airport to hotel run and then from hotel to port everglades? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warmwinds Posted October 27, 2013 #2 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I think I'm the one who mentioned it on you other thread...we truly loved the hotel, it's one of the few places we would go back to (and we are after our next cruise). We usually try different places each time, but this one is just perfect (my opinion!). Anyway, we did have a car, but according to their website it would be a $25-35 cab ride from the airport, and probably close to the same from the port.

Marie51 Posted October 28, 2013 #3 Share Posted October 28, 2013 From the hotel to Port Everglades cost us $40 cab fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted October 28, 2013 #4 Share Posted October 28, 2013 We did from the port to the hotel for about $28. Was a really fast ride the day and hour we went. To the airport was a little less. We were prepared for the estimate of $35 I read here and remember being pleasantly surprised. But depending on traffic and driver, I would guess it could end up closer to that. That's why we choose that location only if staying in the area more than 24 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warmwinds Posted October 28, 2013 #5 Share Posted October 28, 2013 We'll be going from the Port to the Diplomat on a Saturday after a cruise. A little concerned about beach traffic. Did the taxi driver seem to go a way that avoided traffic? I don't know the roads well enough to really request a way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the taxi driver seem to go a way that avoided traffic? I don't know the roads well enough to really request a way. I really can't remember the route our driver took. All I remember is I had two 20$ in my hand ready for the $35 fare. Was pleasantly surprised when we saw the meter. He won't take a "beach road" to the hotel. If you get off earlier rather than the last group, I would guess Sat. resident traffic would be less too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lineaway Posted November 9, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Stayed there a couple years ago. I think 40 covered fare and tip. Would stay there again as I really liked they had the water taxi stop at the hotel. Not much around there for meals at night. Walked to a Panera Bread for Bfast. About a mile.
