Clarea Posted August 16, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Hotels near the port entrance on 17th St are near Publix and Total Wine. Embassy Suites, Holiday Inn Express, Renaissance, Hyatt Place, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCAnthony Posted August 16, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 16, 2017 We stayed at the Sheraton Ft Lauderdale Beach a few years ago. I think it has changed names now(B resorts?) It was nice, right on the beach and convenient to some grocery stores. Can't remember for sure if we walked but there was a Walgreens very close and a grocery store not too far. Short cab rides at the most. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted August 17, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Our choice is Hyatt Place right next to Publix (Harbor Shopping Center)..... book using http://www.valuetrips.com We stayed this past March our new favorite hotel rather than Embassy Suites.

shipgeeks Posted August 17, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 17, 2017 We like Extended Stay America on 17th Street. Quite close to Walgreens, Publix, and many other stores (Ross, Dollar Tree, Winn Dixie, etc.), many restaurants, and the bridge you can walk up to see the ships in port! It has free shuttle, on call, from the airport, and $4 shuttle to the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aarep Posted August 18, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I agree with a previous poster, the Renaissance is across street from Walgreens , close to restaurants and port entrance. A really nice hotel. However the Gallery One is my favorite!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iancal Posted August 19, 2017 #11 Share Posted August 19, 2017 We have stayed at Hyatt Place, Embassy Suites, Renaissance, Hilton Marina, and Hyatt 66. All were good and close to Walgrens,ets (well, Hyatt 66 is bit of a hike over the bridge). On the beach we have also stayed at Courtyard Marriott and Westin. Both were fine but a little further from 17st, and the cruise terminal. Don't bother with any shuttle to the port that you have to pay for and even if it is free consider a cab. Max $10-$15 cab fare from those locations. Far better, and less expensive for two, than squishing into van or waiting for it to arrive at the hotel.

It has free shuttle, on call, from the airport, and $4 shuttle to the port. I like this place too. It is often available at a good rate. Only drawbacks are; (not for me, but might be for some), no pool, and very minimal breakfast. The coffee was very good though, and there is or was an Einstein bagel place right across the street. But I love the location, and the rooms are well appointed. My favorites though are Hyatt Place 17th st, and Embassy Suites. But ONLY, if I get an acceptable rate.
