BevMoney Posted September 23, 2005 #1 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Hi - need your lodging expertise for Miami precruise stay. I am new Marriott Rewards member and I'm trying to decide which hotel to use for my pre-cruise stay on 10/1. Its just one night and I of course want to be close to the port but would also like to maybe visit the spa and be near some good restaurants. I stayed at Eden Roc on the beach last time and while I enjoyed it, I don't want to be that far from the port again. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo4trav Posted September 23, 2005 #2 Share Posted September 23, 2005 The JW is by far a better hotel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elleluv Posted September 23, 2005 #3 Share Posted September 23, 2005 We stayed at the JW in February and it is a beautiful hotel, great service; a definite high recommend. It is in more of a business district area than the Bayside. We ate at the hotel restaurants and thought it was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentS Posted September 23, 2005 #4 Share Posted September 23, 2005 No contest... JW MARRIOTT!!! It's in a safe location, just a few minutes to the port, and there's a Morton's ( http://www.mortons.com/ ), and Gordon Biersch ( http://www.gordonbiersch.com/ ) across the street.

ckrobyn Posted September 23, 2005 #5 Share Posted September 23, 2005 I'm booked at the JW pre flight to San Juan in January :) If you have AAA you'll get a better rate. We booked about 6 months ago and we're in for $129 - not too bad for the JW ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BevMoney Posted September 24, 2005 Author #6 Share Posted September 24, 2005 JW!!! My AAA rate was $169. The only thing that is a bummer is that they no longer have a shuttle to the pier. I was told to make arrangements with the conceirge when I arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
