Ellaleah Posted November 30, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 30, 2019 I will be flying in to FLL on Xmas day and sailing out of Miami Xmas 2020. I am wondering if I could get a suggestion as to a hotel that will have restaurants nearby that will be open on Xmas. I thought someone might have this situation for this year and thought I would check. We may be flying in late and sailing in the am. I would prefer not to spend too much on the hotel. Also, do you think it will be difficult to get Uber/Lyft on Xmas? Thanks for any suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted November 30, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 30, 2019 You can stay in either the downtown/17th street area of Fort Lauderdale or in downtown Miami - something will be open in both areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flymia Posted December 2, 2019 #3 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Miami has a lot of visitors, so things stay open. I would book your flights first and then look at hotels unless you can fund refundable rates. Most people will suggest, correctly, to stay in Downtown Miami or Brickell area for a cruise out of Port Miami. But if you are landing late in the evening then an airport hotel makes sense. Downtown Miami and Brickell will have plenty open on the 25th. Especially Bayside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't we all But it's South Florida in the winter, no such thing as a cheap hotel. At least not one you'd want to sleep in. Uber/lyft is a good question. I would assume they're running fine, but suppose there is a chance there will be less drivers out and about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful with your areas, you book a hotel in somewhere like Doral, Hialeah, Kendall, etc you could end up negating any savings with an expensive Uber. Look at downtown, Brickell, Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, South Beach for areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellaleah Posted December 5, 2019 Author #7 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I will be there Xmas night and prices appear to be very low then. I just want to make sure I am near a place with a restaurant that will be open on Xmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
