gimpysfamily2 Posted October 24, 2019 #1 Share Posted October 24, 2019 What options are there for hanging out at a resort near restaurants and beach without paying too much and storing suitcases? We aren’t interested in Cruise options and would like to just go somewhere and hang out until time to go to airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhraformula00 Posted October 24, 2019 #2 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Any hotel will hold your bags for $5, if you want to walk the beach, get something to eat, ect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted October 24, 2019 #3 Share Posted October 24, 2019 www.resortpass.com is one source for resorts and hotels offering passes to their pool, spa and beach facilites. Tip them to watch your bags while you relax and swim until it is time to clean up and head to the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very timely question, as we have a 9PM flight out of FLL in three weeks. I'm going to check whether the Hilton Marina or the Renaissance will hold out bags for a nominal fee. Either of them is a short walk from our Terminal 2, and the Hilton is right at a Water Taxi stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysparky Posted October 25, 2019 #5 Share Posted October 25, 2019 The other website to checkout is dayuse dot com. You'll have use of the room for a specific time period during the day. For instance, on 11/16, the Element (which is within walking distance of Las Olas) has a rate of $109 and the room is available from 10-5, 12-7 or 4pm-10pm. The Courtyard, which is 1 street away from the beach, has a rate of $99 for a room from 10-4pm for that same day. There are less expensive options as well if you don't care too much about location. We've done this once before and had good results and a hassle-free experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I haven't sailed out of Port Everglades in a long, long time and this post is wonderfully informative. I have a flight leaving late too and didn't want to sit in the airport all day. In my opinion, this is awesome! A room for the day at a reasonable price Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In Toronto Posted October 28, 2019 #7 Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) We are staying at Rodeway Inn for $69.00 + tax = $79.00 for a room with full use of the facilities from 10-6. Includes pickup at the port and airport transfer. Not near the beach though. Edited October 28, 2019 by In Toronto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamesEM Posted October 28, 2019 #8 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I have stayed at the Rodeway Inn a couple of times with good results, however you will need to taxi/Uber if you want go anywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinsoncruiseso Posted November 6, 2019 #10 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Most cruiselines (excluding NCL) have a luggage valet type service where they will transport your bags and check them in for your flight. The cost for this is generally $25 per person. You sign up on the ship. At least this way you would not have to carry your bags around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
