cruisingbajan Posted February 19, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Hi Guys, We will be arriving in Miami around 7:30 pm. We are looking for a place that is reasonable priced, located near some place we can have a bite to eat and where getting to the port is going to be pretty easy....whether it be by shuttle or taxi.( We leave on our cruise the next day) Thanks in advance.

JohninDC Posted February 19, 2010 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Since you are arriving late and just want dinner and a clean safe bed, I'd suggest an airport area hotel in the Blue Lagoon area (Hampton Inn, Homewood Suites, and many others) near MIA. Free airport shuttles and a local shopping mall with several dining options (Italian, Chinese and Cuban) plus fast food, grocery and drug stores. There's also a liquor store for any last minute "cruise supplies" you may need.:D You can shuttle to POM the next morning for about $10 per person, or cab it for under $30. Check these boards and tripadvisor for hotel reviews. Good luck!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohninDC Posted February 19, 2010 #4 Share Posted February 19, 2010 We actually stayed at the Homewood suites last year using Hilton points. Bought some wine at the Publix grocery store (5 minute walk away) and had dinner at the Cuban place (Casa Juan) - it was all great! Have a good cruise!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
