We have stayed at both and I would pick the Hyatt because of the location.

Thx so much I think I'm going to choose the Hyatt for location since we won't have a rental car.

I'm torn between Hyatt Place north and Hilton marina. Hyatt is close to a lot plus they have free shuttles to the airport,free Internet and breakfast. Hilton looks amazing near the marina. Which would you pick?

I agree with you that Bahia Mar is in a better area. The grounds at the Hilton are nicer, but I would choose BH for location. They are probably both the same distance from shopping and dining, but the beach area is a nicer area to walk around. The Hilton isn't in an area where people take a walk. The Gallery One is up near the other end of the beach so it will be a very different location.

Thx so much!!

Hi I originally booked the Hilton marina for 2 days before my cruise and then the Doubletree Gallery One for 2 days after. I've been looking on this thread and people are saying the Hilton is not near a lot of dining/shopping ect. So I am having second thoughts I just don't want us to be bored. I was thinking of the Bahia Mar since it looks close to a lot of stuff and the beach or staying at the Doubletree Gallery One before the cruise as well. Does anyone have any suggestions for a hotel walking distance from happening areas? Dining/shopping/not too far from the beach or at least an inexpensive way to the beach (ie sun trolley) thanks in advance.
