Hotels in Fort Lauderdale Before Your Cruise

[@cynthiamehall4609]

I lived in FLL for years, and love the charm of the retro motels along Pompano or Dania Beach. They're less expensive than the big chains, and usually only a block or two from the beach so I can get an early start on my vacation!

Hey, greetings from Toronto! You two rock! I just subscribed to your channel as your effervescent personalities and zest for life shines through your vlog offerings. I'll be cruising on Carnival Magic next year so I appreciate being informed about eateries in the Fort Lauderdale vicinity when watching your KZbin channel. Keep up the good work, eh. Cheers!

[@AllThingsWagner]

Welcome!! Thanks for the kind words. So glad we could help you prepare for your cruise. Let us know if you have questions.

We stay at the Renaissance every time we are in Ft. Lauderdale. There is an excellent restaurant nearby called the 15th Street Fishery. Honestly, I love the food reviews, and I'm in awe (and jealous!) at how you can stay so thin with the food you eat!

[@AllThingsWagner]

lol. I certainly do NOT eat like that outside vacation. 😂 Thanks for the additional hotel and restaurant info!!

[@rmsilva1191]

Thanks for the reviews of hotels; appreciate including the restaurants you enjoyed in the area.

[@AllThingsWagner]

Thanks for watching! Let us know if there are other hotels or restaurants in the area you like.

Hey guys, loved the video. Padrino’s has been a South Florida tradition since 1976. Another place for you to check out next time you are in town is Coopers Hawk Winery in nearby Coconut Creek. I have worked there for the last five years as a server and love being there! Great food, wine and experience for all. Keep up the great work!

[@AllThingsWagner]

Thanks for the tips!

I agree flights are not reliable as they used to be BUT cruising is getting expensive. Now if you add to that flying in the day B4 to stay over (at today's rates) plus transport and meals it becomes very expensive. If its not a combo stay a few days and cruise trip I'm still ready to risk it.

A lotta very helpful info here !!!

I just stayed at the Hampton Miami Brickell location. It is amazing! I have a Celebrity cruise in November out of Lauderdale and am considering another Hampton due the great stay and included breakfast. Love the Cuban restaurant option!

[@AllThingsWagner]

Thanks for the additional recommendation!

Whereabouts in NJ are you originally from? Monmouth County here. You chose several of my old eating spots from my 20+ years living in Pompano Beach. Was so glad you found Jaxson’s - but was REALLY hoping you’d get The Kitchen Sink sundae. 😂

[@AllThingsWagner]

Kitchen Sink wasn’t happening! 😂 Jaxson’s was amazing, though! I’m from PA but graduated from Franklin Township HS.

I live in Fort Lauderdale..nice review…..we cruise out of Port Everglades often

[@AllThingsWagner]

Thanks. Great port town!!

[@montebking5765]

You guys are the best.

[@AllThingsWagner]

Thanks Monte!!

We have First Watch at home. A new one is open , food is great but ceilings are so high that you can’t carry on a conversation, I think it hurts the acoustics. We stayed in Ft Lauderdale prior to our cruise at Hyatt Place. It also has a free hot breakfast.

[@AllThingsWagner]

Excellent info! Thanks. Yes. First Watch-great food, not ideal for recording. 😂

We are sailing in April, so we are staying at Hyatt House. Have you been to Robert's Restaurant and/or Rustic Inn Crab house? If so, what did you think about it?

[@AllThingsWagner]

We haven’t been to either restaurant. Is that the Hyatt House by the airport? Good reviews online for it, and not far from the port too. 👍🏼

[@lovermonkey]

@ngsWagner Yes, it is. I was thinking about trying these two restaurants out. I have heard good things about the Rustic Inn Crabhouse. I guess I will find out come April. Thank you for you quick response.

[@AllThingsWagner]

@@lovermonkey check out Trip Advisor’s recent reviews of the restaurants. Great resource.

[@lovermonkey]

@@AllThingsWagner I will. thank you!!!

[@tlcbear411]

Great job

[@AllThingsWagner]

Thanks Brenda!!

[@hopehawk]

Video covers two Hampton Inns in the area for about 5 minutes and then is all restaurants. Pretty misleading title.

[@AllThingsWagner]

Description fully shares the content of the video, and the intro also lets you know what's coming. Hope you found the info helpful!

[@hopehawk]

I did not I'll be blocking you in favor of better content.@@AllThingsWagner

[@cindyertel8511]

Yikes, pretty harsh.

[@mea3665]

Nothing is FREE at a hotel you paid for it in your room fee ! You need to stop using the free word. We have stayed twice at Bestwestern Oceanside great location. Hotels in Ft Lauderdale yep verym miss leading

[@AllThingsWagner]

I often use the word “included” for cruises, so I’ll note that for the next hotel video. 👍🏼
