25dbb Posted October 13, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Booked this hotel for pre-cruise stay for January, interested in what is in the area around this hotel, restaurants, stores, etc, within a reasonable walking distance. We are getting in very late afternoon and plan on enjoying the infinity pool during the evening, would just like to venture out for last minute stuff if needed or a quick breakfast in the morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdt10 Posted October 17, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 17, 2015 We stay here often and will again January 7-9 pre-cruise. Not a lot close by, but convenient to pier and old town by taxi. For dinner we walk a couple of blocks to Casita Miramar which we enjoy. A little farther past Casita Miramar are several other restaurants, a grocery store and a small movie theatre. The pool area at the hotel is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've looked at it on Google Maps and it looks to be about 1 mile, but it is very hard to tell if there are sidewalks or if traffic would be heavy/dangerous.

rdt10 Posted October 26, 2015 #4 Share Posted October 26, 2015 We always take a cab to the pier. Too far with luggage for us to walk. I don't remember sidewalks and there is a lot of traffic to and from the pier with people boarding and leaving the ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloob Despite it being nearby, walking to the ship would not be feasible. The road to the ship(s) (Celebrity Summit also docks at the Pan American pier) is narrow, and is crowded with taxis coming and going. There is no sidewalk.
