cxr133 Posted April 11 #1 Share Posted April 11 (edited) lol hope the title summed it up. we are looking at staying about 3 nights in Miami post cruise in July. I want to use my Bonvoy points (about 150K) so looking at a Marriott property , My search shows dozens 😞 what would be a good place to stay for 4 people with so many mixed reviews i just need to know which ones would be a no-go and which places would be good for our stay our plan right now i think is Sat- debarkation, maybe everglades tour, beach, walk around a little at night get dinner and people watch. we have 2 19yo so probably no clubbing Sun. maybe double decker bus or some tour to Key west. Mon. Miami Zoo Thanks Guys Edited April 11 by cxr133 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted April 13 #6 Share Posted April 13 JW Marriott on Brickell would be perfect for what you are looking for. And you can always stay one night there and rent a car to head to key west and spend the night at a Marriott property in Key West or along the way back to Miami. Then stop at the zoo on your way back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a great location to stay at, it's just a Hilton property not a Marriott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a Hilton across the street from Doubletree and Marriott, the one restaurant in Marriott has a fabulous view of the harbor and a large bar I believe the name is Casablanca.

I only mentioned that the Doubletree was a Hilton property as the OP was looking for Marriot properties only. You are right, that is Casablanca on the Bay. They have a great happy hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser Who Knows Nothing Posted April 17 #11 Share Posted April 17 Our absolute favorite Marriott property in Miami Beach is the Stanton. Hands down. We love the resort feel, the location (away from the hustle and bustle of SoBe, but close enough to be in it) All the Prime restaurants (Steak, Italian and Fish) are there and Big Pink for breakfast. LOVE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cxr133 Posted April 29 Author #12 Share Posted April 29 Based on my number of points have it narrowed down to Marriott Biscayne Bay or JW Mariott Bricknell. Residence Inn south beach or the Moxy. i like the Biscayne bay because of the queen beds. any recommendations for any of these? the reviews on TripAdvisor are soo mixed for all properties some love it some truly hate it. ugh 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing "wrong" with the Marriott Biscayne Bay, but I think the Moxy Miami is a better hotel in a better location. The Moxy is small and charming, the Marriott is just a Marriott. It is a big, corporate hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
