Miami Beach Marriott at South Beach

[Gradelady]

Just got back from our cruise, stayed here pre-cruise. If you can get it, it's fantastic!

Why was it great to stay here? How did you get to the port? How did you get to the hotel?

We'll be leaving from Miami on Sept. Looking for a pre cruise stay

Many reasons...I got 4 rooms here on Priceline for $120 a nite. The hotel web site was asking over $400. It is in South Beach but away from all of the commotion. It is right on the beach, but within walking distance of lots of great restaurants, stores and bars. The beds were extremely comfortable. The people at the desk and the concierge were both friendly and helpful. We were allowed to check in over the phone as our flight arrived at 11:15 pm and we did not get to the hotel until after midnight. We got there using the super shuttle from the Miami airport and the concierge booked all 8 of us with a shuttle service from the hotel to the ship on Sat. morning for $55. We were 20 min. at most from hotel to pier.(BY the way, the guy who took us to the ship arranged to pick us up from the ship and back to the airport for the same price!) We watched the Fri. ships leave from the beach behind the hotel. Hotel pool is small but nice. The hotel is quite pretty too! Good luck with your arrangements...we were very happy with how ours turned out!
