Sue's Mom Posted June 3, 2008 #1 Share Posted June 3, 2008 We disembark our ship in Fort Lauderdale on October 16, and plan to hire a car for 24 hours to go to Miami from where we fly out at 1.30pm the following day. I love hotels on the ocean but have only stayed in Sunny Isles before. We are looking for a pleasant, clean friendly hotel on a beach that is not expensive. Hopefully that is not a tall order. Any recommendations for a one night stay would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted June 4, 2008 #2 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Try Courtyard by Marriott Oceanside. Is located right on the beach and board walk. Average hotel , but great for outdoor lunches and drinks and walking on the boardwalk for blocks and blocks. Can cab it to South Beach easily.

pe4all Posted June 5, 2008 #5 Share Posted June 5, 2008 We stayed at this hotel 3 days post-cruise in December. Nice hotel, rooms comfortable, pool nice (was hard to get a lounge - people camp out all day- use the lounge for an hour here or there, left towels on to "hold" the lounge - felt like I was on a cruise with the "chair hogs". Beach was very nice - we walked all the way to SB on the boardwalk! They will charge you for chair/lounges/umbrellas on the beach. Nice tiki bar - had music, and pretty good food/happy hours there. We would stay there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
