vrock Posted March 26, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 26, 2017 We just booked Springhill suites in Dania and I would like to hear from anyone who has stayed here. What is the location like? Are there any stores nearby to purchase wine? Would you recommend this hotel. What was your experience with the free shuttle service to the port. Would we be better off just taking a taxi.

Clarea Posted March 26, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 26, 2017 We've stayed there a few times. Very nice property, clean, staff is good. No problems with the shuttle to the pier, it's a 3rd party, but they were well organized. We would have no problem staying there again, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOKC Posted March 26, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 26, 2017 We like this place, except for the limited dinner options (non-fast food) nearby. Good shuttle service (free from airport and to pier) and free breakfast. Wine across the main street at either Kmart or BJs wholesale club (no membership needed for just wine).

Across Stirling Road from Oakwood Plaza Mall where other than all the usual fast food places you will find Moonlite Diner, Dave and Buster's, TGIFridays, Sweet Tomatoes, Sal's Italian Ristorante, Red Lobster and Hollywood Ale House.

iahawkfan21 Posted March 26, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Good location, close to plenty of places to eat. As mentioned, shuttle through third party but very easy to use. Would stay there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare FionaMG Posted March 26, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 26, 2017 We stayed there a few years ago and were pleased with it. Decent room, good choice of breakfast items and the port shuttle worked fine. I seem to remember we signed up for it at the front desk and they had different shuttles for the different ships.

helen haywood Posted March 27, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 27, 2017 You could take Uber to a restaurant and even to the port if you like. I hate waiting for shuttles. We have stayed at this hotel and it was very nice. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrock Posted March 27, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Thank you all for posting. We are flying in a couple of days before our cruise we would like to check out the water taxi how far would that be from springhill suites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lido_Deck Posted March 27, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Thank you all for posting. We are flying in a couple of days before our cruise we would like to check out the water taxi how far would that be from springhill suites. Well...That's an interesting question. From SpringHill Suites it's 6 miles to the Ft Lauderdale Water Taxi stop underneath the 17th Street Causeway Bridge in front of the Hilton Marina and 5 miles to Margaritaville/Five O'Clock Somewhere and the first stop of the Hollywood Water Taxi. You can ride both Water Taxis with the same ticket by transferring at the Hilton Marina stop http://watertaxi.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrock Posted March 27, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Thank you that gives us a place to start when looking into the water taxi. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mricko Posted March 27, 2017 #11 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I am also staying at the Springhill Suites pre and post cruise. I reserved Jiffy Jeffs for our transfer to and from the Port of Miami. I just received a e-mail stating that they can't honor our transfer to the cruise port because they will be on vacation. Our cruise is Sept 9th, does anyone have suggestions on a company that does transfers to Port of Miami? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get a much better response if you post a new thread with your question. This is considered hijacking and a no-no per Cruise Critic rules. Besides, the title of this thread won't help you, while one such as "Transfers from POM to Ft Lauderdale Hotel" which get a lot more replies.
