DublinFC Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 I am pretty sure this has been stated somewhere, but I am not going hunting through the message boards for the thread(s). Any solid suggestions for hotels near Port Everglades? Depending on arrival time a place with a great pool and pool bar would be nice. Also, if staying so close what is the average cost of an Uber/Lyft to the port? Just wondering. I have only sailed from Miami and Port Canaveral. PC we had a shuttle from Disney World. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locals staycation at Conrad and Marriott harbor beach for the most part. budget: Hilton Marina $15-$20ish for an Uber to the terminal.

PC we had a shuttle from Disney World. thanks My go-to hotel in Fort Lauderdale is the Best Western Plus Oceanside Inn. We have stayed there twice before and will be back for the third time in just over two weeks from now. It's fairly basic but it does have a pool and a bar and breakfast is included in the room rate, if that's something that might make a difference to you. It's close to the beach and walking distance to restaurants and shops along the seafront. I seem to remember Lyft to the port being around the $12 mark but the last time we were there was pre-pandemic so I'd expect it to be more now.

Matt Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Best Fort Lauderdale hotels near the cruise port: https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2023/03/21/best-fort-lauderdale-hotels-near-cruise-port DublinFC and markinct 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KWong Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 @DublinFC please let us know which hotel you settled on and how your stay was. For me, I like staying at Hyatt Place 17th street. There are a large cluster of hotels in the area but the combination of free breakfast, large rooms and consistently competitive prices make this my choice. I'm not that fussed with pools though so ymmv with this. But the reason I like this area is that everything you need is within walking distance. Even Port Everglades if you wanted to save $10-15. There are various restaurants, a Publix/Dollar Tree for sundries, wine shops, and a TJ Maxx/Ross for "I forgot to pack this item of clothing".

Our sailing is not for another year. But booking hotels and flights will have to start happening soon. I prefer to book well in advance for our hotels and keep track of the price to see if I can get a better deal down the road. KWong 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
