Where do you stay in Miami

We prefer South Beach. We've stayed at the Hotel San Juan(much nicer since the remodel)or the "National".

Agree with all recommendations for the Intercontinental.

 

However, call in advance and request a view of the Port area, mentioning the cruise ships, if that's what you want.

That's the big attraction there for us and most others. Convenience to the port is another.

But watching the ships arrive and sail off... fun!

 

There is also a channel along the shore that often has some smaller boats to watch, including occasional yachts.

 

Staying there is definitely a good way to get in the "mood" for a cruise (for anyone who arrives in Miami in any other mood, that is....)

Greetings from South Beach, loulou. We live in Miami Beach, a barrier island off the coast of Miami. We are 20 minutes from the Port of Miami. Where you stay depends on what you want to do here. If you stay in the Intercontinental Miami in a front room, you will see your ship at its mooring. If you are up early enough, you will see it arrive. Miami Beach is only a cab ride away, and there are many hotels here. For a slice of modernized history, there is the Fontainebleau Miami Beach. There are many others in every price range, as well. Have fun.

Earlier this month we stayed at the Hampton Inn in Brickell. It’s in a great area, we walked down to the water, over to the island near the port. Lots of great cafes, bars, & restaurants. We happened to be there on Cinco de Mayo and had great tacos at Coyo Around the corner. Bought some wine and scotch at nearby Publix to take onboard. Short cab ride to the Port.
