FLL or POM Hotels?


onlyif

Recommended Posts

I have a group of 3 flying into FLL the day before our November cruise out of POM. Should we stay in Ft Lauderdale or near the POM? We plan on using SAS to get to the port if we stay in Ft Lauderdale. Not sure how we would get to the port of we stayed in Miami. Any suggestions?

It is up to you - some prefer to stay in Miami and just cab to POM; some prefer the FLL area and shuttle to POM the next day. FLL area hotels tend to be slightly cheaper than comparable hotels in Miami.

 

If your flight is arriving late I would just stay near FLL; if arriving early then you have the option to stay where you want.

 

Downtown Miami hotels to consider include the Hampton Inn (Mary Brickell), Marriott, Doubletree, Hyatt, Intercontinental, and Holiday Inn.

 

Use this site for info on most FLL Hotels http://www.sunny.org

Some of CC members favorites:

Sleep Inn Dania

Cambria Suites Dania

Hyatt Place FLL north and south

Hampton Inn (2 airport area locations)

Embassy Suites

Holiday Inn Express convention center

La Quinta Airport

Hilton 17th Street

Bahia Mar

Hyatt Pier 66

 

In addition to SAS, QLS transportation (www.qualitylimoservice.com ), MJS transportation (www.gomjstrans.com ) and Go Airport Shuttle (http://goairportshuttle.com/) are FLL based shuttle services with reasonable prices. 3 in a cab for about $80-85 is another option to Miami.

 

Good luck! :)

If you are getting in late then I would stay at For Lauderdale.

 

Hotel rates will be cheaper at Fort Lauderdale.

 

However, if you are arriving early you may just want to stay in Miami. If you do, then you can just take a taxi from the hotel over to the port.

We are arriving around noon as long as there are no delay's... I guess I'll check with the other 2 but as they are guys it may be up to me to decide. :(

 

No opinion = no grounds to complain! ;)

 

Choose what you want and tell them to shut up! :cool:
