cruise.freak Posted April 18, 2009 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2009 We are sailing out of Miami 6/6 and I was wanting to stay at the intercontinential but the only price I can find it for is 171.00 which is above my budget. What is the next best downtown motels close to bayside that we can walk to? It will be me, hubby and 14 year old daughter. Any recommendations appreciated.

SailingDeanna Posted April 19, 2009 #4 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Did you try to get Intercontinental on easy click travel? It's usually cheaper there. If not, the Holiday Inn Port of Miami is walking distance to Bayside, but it isn't nearly as nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Born Posted April 19, 2009 #5 Share Posted April 19, 2009 HI-POM is directly across the street. Great reviews too. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huxlemo Posted April 19, 2009 #6 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Courtyard by Marriott is $77/night. Not far from Bayside. It has recently been updated also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownies95 Posted April 19, 2009 #7 Share Posted April 19, 2009 We got the Holiday Inn-Port of Miami for $123 on easyclicktravel.com for our May cruise. It is located right across the street from Bayside. If we are lucky enough, maybe we will get one of the rooms that overlook the Port, so we can watch our ship arrive in the morning!

eandj Posted April 19, 2009 #8 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Closest to Bayside is Holiday Inn Port of Miami. Across the street Next is Intercontinental. 1 block (same side of street) Hyatt Regency downtown is a few blocks. Would walk during daylight. Cab in the evening. Other hotels are close (within a mile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruise.freak Posted April 19, 2009 Author #10 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Well I finally just gave in and tried priceline. Won the Hyatt Regency for $65.00. Didn't think I could get a motel that cheap so that is more foo-foo drinks on the cruise! Thanks for all your help and suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget to call the hotel direct to reconfirm and get a hotel confirmation number. Also if you have a specific bed/s need, request it now.

eandj Posted April 20, 2009 #16 Share Posted April 20, 2009 :( is the one on 2505 norswest bad location???:( This IC is the one by the airport. About a 20 -25 min cab ride to downtown/port area. Go to tripadvisor and read recent reviews. If you got a good price and are there for a short time it's ok. If you are in Miami for a long day or more, take a cab to S. Beach or somewhere away from the generic airport scene so you can see what Miami area is all about. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
