furloughedagain Posted June 13, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Booked a room at the B Ocean Resort for the night our cruise arrives. Figured we could chill on the beach for the day and then fly home the following day. A way to ease our way back to real life. Of course, we won’t be able to check into the hotel at 9am after disembarkation. So what to do? I could rent a car, but hate to pay parking at the resort. Uber to the resort and check our bags for the day until we can check in? Open to suggestions. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matj2000 Posted June 13, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 13, 2018 9AM is pretty early, considering most place you can't check in until 1 or 2 PM. Why not stay on the ship until 9? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceManCan Posted June 13, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Much like the cruise ship even though your room is not ready until one o'clock you can still get there early and enjoy the amenities of the hotel.

1992cruiser Posted June 14, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 14, 2018 There is a bar behind B Ocean called the world famous Parrot. Not sure of your situation, but I love that place—usually for the night before a cruise though. As for what to do at 9??? Uber and check the bags. Go find a lounger on the beach until the Parrot opens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted June 14, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Most hotels will hold your bags and let you use the pool and other amenities. Wear your bathing suits under your clothes...and you'll be ready to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_G Posted June 14, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 14, 2018 After a cruise, spending the day on the beach isn't as appealing as pre-cruise. We've Ubered to Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort for lunch and walking the boardwalk, Coconuts for Lunch, American Social for Brunch, the Elbow Room for cocktails, and Southport Raw Bar for dinner. I'm probably forgetting a couple but the ones I mentioned are all casual all the time. By the way, if you haven't checked it out before, take a walk next door and have a look at the Marriott. We stayed at the B in January and one walk through next door convinced us to try it out next January. It's an amazing facility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ONECRUISER Posted June 14, 2018 #9 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Check with Hotel, some will let you check in early. One I stay at in Boston has 3pm check in, they let me at 11am right after I land. Another one FLL same, check in 3 hrs early. Doesn't hurt to ask. I usually e-mail Hotel at least month ahead of time, then get confirm for early arrival. But only speak with Manager not desk clerk. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
