dizkid Posted October 9, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Can any tell me how close a store might be to the Holiday Inn - Port of Miami for buying mineral water, such as S.Pellegrino or Perrier? Not looking for sparkling water, it must be the type that has minerals in it. Also, how about a store for buying wine near the hotel? We won't have a car, so walking distance within a mile or so would be the limit. Otherwise, we'll have to taxi it. Tks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 9, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 9, 2014 A couple of doors down from the hotel is a CVS. They have wine for sure. Not sure if they have perrier or pelligrino but you could just call them. 786-838-0316 If they don't carry it (I think they have perrier) you could go to Publix Grocery which is about a 20 minute walk from the hotel.

SMSACE6 Posted October 9, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Agree with previous poster. A short walk away is CVS. It is a big store with a big variety of things for sale that you might want last minute before a cruise. I too do not remember if they carry mineral water such as Pellegrino, but I would be surprised if you could not at least get Perrier there. The variety of wines is not really in the league of a connoisseur's taste, but I found some very acceptable and palatable wine to take on my cruise. Have a great cruise.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueHerons Posted October 9, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I'm sure they carry Pellagrino. My little ghetto 7/11 carries it in multiple sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aurelius180 Posted October 9, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 9, 2014 That CVS will be super convenient for you and should have everything you're looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 9, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Again, just call them to be sure. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt_BJ Posted October 9, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 9, 2014 and the price will not be much less than you'll see on the boat .... plus your carry effort My experience here . . . BUT if it makes you feel good . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT if it makes you feel good . . . I pay $2 for it at the 7/11. I would bet it is closer to $5 on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 10, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Logic tells me that the water and wine will be lots cheaper than on the ship as it would be lots cheaper than a land based restaurant. Given that the CVS is within a minute walk from the hotel it's pretty easy for the OP to pick up these items. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizkid Posted October 10, 2014 Author #11 Share Posted October 10, 2014 A big thanks to all who posted. I did see the CVS on Google earth, so I know that's doable. Keith, can you give me the address of the Publix so I can map it out? My DW needs the mineral water for digestive reasons. Regular bottled water (spring, sparkling) does not work.

Rare Keith1010 Posted October 10, 2014 #12 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Paul/Brigitte the CVS is literally less than 30 second from the Holiday Inn. Again, I would just call CVS and they can tell you what they carry in terms of water. This is the address for Publix: 134 SW 13th St Miami, FL 33130-4211 Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelkel2 Posted October 10, 2014 #14 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I can tell you for sure that the CVS down the street from the Holiday Inn Port of Miami has San Pelligrino and Wine. I have bought both there. At least when we were there they did! That is actually quite a large CVS and has almost anything you could need! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
