LUVROYAL415 Posted March 30, 2009 #1 Share Posted March 30, 2009 We are planning a cruise for Feb 7th, 2010. I am having a hard time finding a hotel that I want that has availability for 2/6/2010. Does anyone know if there is something going on that weekend around the area? Embassy Suites, Yankee Clipper, and several others are showing no rooms available already for that date. Am I too early? Anyone have any other suggestions? We are thinking of trying Bahia Mar Beach Resort. Is this near anything that we can walk to? I would greatly appreciate anyone's advice.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills blasters Posted March 30, 2009 #2 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Super Bowl, Miami that weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted March 30, 2009 #3 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Not too early to search as hotels open booking a year out. The problem is the Super Bowl is in Miami that weekend and hotels in the area will be packed. Most hotels will have minimum stay requirements and/or exorbitant fares. In 2007, many people resorted to going to Orlando or Tampa to find hotels although one person did find availability at a Days Inn - for $450 per night. Book something, anything, fully refundable now to make sure you have a hotel and then go searching for something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Canucks Posted March 31, 2009 #7 Share Posted March 31, 2009 We ended up changing our cruise dates because of this problem... No available hotel rooms...Feb 5-6-7. We will now be on the Equinox for the Super Bowl and we have booked great pre and post hotel rooms in Ft Lauderdale too. Change your cruise date ... less hassle.
