Golf and Cruise Any recommendations for Fort Lauderdale?

Looking to get in 2 days of golf in before leaving on our cruise. We are leaving from Fort Lauderdale. Any suggestions of where to stay that would be close for golf, cruise, and airport? Looking for something that would be 4* quality.

I'm not a golfer, but one place that comes to mind is the Westin Diplomat on Hollywood Beach. It's a wonderful hotel, and they have their own country club a couple of miles away. They will shuttle you from the hotel to the course. It's about 20-30 minutes from FLL and Port Everglades.

Another place that comes to mind is the Fairmont Turnberry Isle in Aventura... http://www.fairmont.com/turnberryisle/

 

It's another wonderful hotel directly on 2 18-hole golf courses, about 30 minutes from FLL and Port Everglades, and across the street from Aventura Mall... http://www.shopaventuramall.com/
