Hampton Inn question

[coloxray]

We are staying at the Fort Lauderdale Hampton Inn cruise port. Does anyone know if there is anywhere to buy a couple of bottles of wine nearby?

There are a few Hampton Inns in Fort Lauderdale so you need to give us the full address please.

We are staying at the Hampton inn plantation I was told the is a big mall behind it and does anyone know how much a cab would be to the port from hotel ? Thanks

Total Wine is on S. University Drive in Plantation.:D We walked there last time we stayed. The front desk will give you directions.

Yes, there is a mall across the street, too. :)

If it is the Hampton Inn Airport North Cruiseport, there is a plaza across the road that has a Big Daddy's liquor store and also a Winn Dixie grocery store that sells wine.

Yes we are staying at the Hampton Inn Airport North Cruise port. Thank you for the info about the plaza across the street. We stayed there last year and I didn't remember seeing the Winn Dixie. Is it in the same plaza as the dollar store?

When you check in at the desk (Hampton Inn Plantation), sign up for the shuttle to the port. You choose a time~~if there are a lot of cruisers, the manager will have more than one van. One time, she rented a bus for all of us, LOL ! :D All other times, we've had no problems having the shuttle take us to Port Everglades.

You can also have the shuttle pick you up at the airport if it's not too late (on arrival). We enjoy the Plantation area and this Hampton since it is close to many restaurants and shops~~for last minute items. :)

Yes. Keep walking down the plaza. The Winn Dixie is about 3/4 of the way down the plaza. You'll pass a few different stores, a Thai restaurant, laundromat, a bar etc. We always go to the Winn Dixie for any snacks we want for the ship and often buy our wine there too.

About $50, but that Hampton Inn has a port shuttle. See if they will do a pick up.

Cruise Port North or Cruise Port South?

 

Never mind...I see it's the North.

Again, thanks for the info. We will definitely walk to the Winn Dixie for wine and snacks.
