Rare Vallesan Posted July 25 #2 Share Posted July 25 Intercontinental might fit the bill. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzin Terri Posted July 25 #4 Share Posted July 25 We like the Marriott Biscayne Bay. Harbor and Cruise Port Views. Very Nice. Terri 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ORV Posted July 25 #5 Share Posted July 25 Lots of options, the two mentioned are good choices. The last time we were in Miami we stayed at the Gabriel Hilton. Great view of the port, especially if you have a room with a bayside view. We’ve also stayed at the Intercontinental and throughly enjoyed it.

basenji56 Posted July 25 #6 Share Posted July 25 I always stay on the beach in Miami Beach. Kimpton Surfcomber is nice. A little off the beach: The Balfour or Urbanica The Fifth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SATaxman Posted July 25 #7 Share Posted July 25 We are staying at the Hilton Miami Blue Lagoon. Closer to the airport than the cruise port. Looks nice enough for 2 nights pre-cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syd58 Posted July 26 #8 Share Posted July 26 The Elser is wonderful, and I believe it is the closest hotel to the port. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Harters Posted July 26 #10 Share Posted July 26 12 hours ago, basenji56 said: I always stay on the beach in Miami Beach We also stayed at the Beach for a couple of nights pre-cruise, earlier this year. Plymouth Hotel on 21st Street. Hotel was recommended by our cruise TA and was absolutely fine . About 5 minutes stroll to the beach, so a generally good location for a day chilling after a transatlantic flight, with several decent restaurants within a few minutes walk of the hotel Our only issue with it was that the hotel adds a "resort fee" to its charges - we've come across this rip-off before in American hotels so know it's just a marketing ploy to make their advertised prices look cheaper than they actually are. It's unlikely we'll pass that way again but would definitely stay there if we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I must say that many hotels include beach service (chair and/or umbrella day rental) with the fee so it not quite so bad if you plan to go to the beach.

I believe it is the Hotel Beaux Arts, one of the Autograph Collection hotels, which is part of the Bonvoy system. I know in NYC, they do some properties with 2 different Bonvoy properties located in the same building. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's part of Marriott, but not the same as the JW--it's sit's on top of the JW. Yes the name is Hotel Beaux Arts. Great hotel and you get points, or use points. A bit pricey. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DENIE Posted July 28 #17 Share Posted July 28 No view of the port, but we stayed at The Cadillac in Miami Beach (part of the Marriott Collection). Wonderful ocean-front property. Our Uber ride to the port was about 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamthesea Posted July 29 #18 Share Posted July 29 We stayed at The Elser (also an Oceania hotel) last March. Loved the room and location. Our room looked out over the bay. We walked over and had dinner one night. We took a short taxi ride to the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
