ohio440 Posted February 21, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Planning to fly down the day before our May 28 cruise. I'm looking at hotels near the FLL airport and the port. The Crowne Plaza Hotel sticks out for price and quality. Crowne Plaza Hotel Fort Lauderdale Airport/Cruiseport State Road 84, Fort Lauderdale, FL For sure we want it to have a pool. Might have time to sightsee one place nearby, might not. Anyone with first hand experience or another recommendation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted February 21, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 21, 2017 www.sunny.org has lots of FLL area tourist and hotel info - start your search there. Budget would help the suggestions to be closer to your target. Memorial day weekend will be busy. Are you focused on the beach? Water taxi? Port? Honeymoon? Travelling with family? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 21, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hyatt Pier 66 is very nice, some rooms have a great view of the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravbo Posted February 22, 2017 #4 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I have read recently that the Pier 66 has been sold to a developer. Do not know what plans the developer has for the property. Just a word of caution. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrk2cruise Posted February 22, 2017 #6 Share Posted February 22, 2017 We stayed at the Crown Plaza a couple of weeks ago pre-cruise. We arrived about 5 pm and sailing the next day so just a place to sleep. Many times we would stay in Dania Beach for this type of stay. Hotel was a good value and close to airport and PE. The only issue is there isn't much in walking distance. There is a restaurant in the hotel and an Italian place about a block away. We ended up walking down to Outback by 17th street where we had eaten before and took and Uber back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doone Posted February 22, 2017 #7 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I booked the Hyatt Place on 17th Street thru valuetrips.com at a great price. Web site says has a shuttle from the airport to the hotel for $2/person and a shuttle to the pier the next day for a fee, I think it's &7/person. Lots of restaurants and stores within walking distance of the hotel. Check it out, it may fit your needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
