poisonivynicole Posted January 15, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I am sure this has been asked before, but what hotels in Miami have free shuttles to the port? Also any hotel suggestions. Six of us going on spring break just trying to get to the cruise nothing fancy... Just not scary..... We are flying in to Fort Lauderdale the day before so any suggestions on transportation from airport to miami would be very helpful!!! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plume Posted January 15, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I am also on the same cruise and flying into FLL the day before. I am using SAS Transportation to my hotel in Miami. www.ridesas.com Phone 1-954-600-0240 speak to Steven. I got his information from crusie critic boards. I am staying at the Best Western on the Bay Inn Marina in North Bay Village. They have a shuttle to the port that is included in our price of the room.

yashualie Posted January 15, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 15, 2009 My boyfriend and I are taking the Pride out of Miami on April 5 and are staying at the LaQuinta the night before. They also told me about leaving your car for free, but the shuttle service to the port is one-way...you have to find your way back to the hotel post-cruise. Still a pretty good deal but just something to think about. Happy cruising!:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samatha Posted January 16, 2009 #7 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Best Western in Bay Village has a great restaurant called Shuckers right on Biscayne Bay. Great food and location. Nice continental breakfast in morning. Other restaurants within walking distance include Benihanna. Holiday Inn Bayside ... no shuttle,but across from shopping and entertainment venue. Taxi very inexpensive to port. The Wave ... again no shuttle. Great little boutique hotel in South Beach. Very art deco. Again cheap ride to port. Have stayed in all. All are great.

barbnurse Posted January 21, 2009 #11 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Do you have to reserve the shuttle in advance at the La Quinta? We have reservations at a Miami Hampton Inn the night before our cruise in March and they told me they have a service for port transports, cost is $10/pp. The room rate is more also so maybe I should re-think and book at La Quinta.

racingraysswimmom Posted January 21, 2009 #12 Share Posted January 21, 2009 barbnurse, I am booked at La Quinta East and was told that at check-in you make your reservation for the shuttle to the port for the next day. At the airport you call for pick-up shuttle to the hotel. Continental Breakfast is included too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
