Sand and Seas Posted August 14, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2018 looking for a miami hotel with....airport shuttle,and walking distance to grocery store. I know Hampton Inn is one....are there others? For Hampton Inn, make sure it's the Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon. Publix directly across the street. Have stayed there 4 or 5 times and has been great for pre-cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sand and Seas Posted August 14, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 14, 2018 We'll be staying at the Homewood Suites Blue Lagoon. Other than Publix, what specifically is close by? Across the street from Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon there is a Starbucks, Burlington Outlet store, Cuban restaurant and Burger King. A block away there is a CVS pharmacy. Anything you might have forgotten is available close. You can get a good made to order sandwich or soup at the Deli counter in the Publix. Haven't traveled further than that as it was all we needed for pre-cruise:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted August 14, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Between the Publix and CVS, most cruisers can fulfill any pre-cruise needs. The Cuban place, Casa Juan's is family owned and great Cuban coffee and good breakfasts. A little ways away, but still walkable is a decent Mexican restaurant. Plus your usual fast food places, including Pollo Tropical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First had some on the Getaway when they had the Flamingo Grill. (Flamingo Grill is now Margaritaville:() Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I last thing....I see the mention of HOMEWOOD SUITES/ BLUE LAGOON...is this hotel walking distance to the PUBLIX GROCERY STORE/ CUBAN RESTAURANT, etc.? It looks like Homewood Suites is across the lagoon from Hampton Inn and the Publix/Restaurant block. Perhaps a half mile or so? There could be something else closer to Homewood but I haven't stayed there and do not have personal knowledge about it. We have stayed at Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon at least 4 times and will plan on returning there before our next cruise out Miami. The staff there has been great and free shuttle from airport dependable.

SteerageJoe Posted August 15, 2018 #11 Share Posted August 15, 2018 If you stayed at the Pullman then you may want to look at the Hyatt House next door. That puts you closer to the Publix strip mall around the corner down the street. The Homewood Suites is further down the road in the office park. Nice leafy neighborhood but it is quite a walk to the Publix area. Too far IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
