Any advice for a pre-cruise hotel in Fort Lauderdale?

We’ve got some great hotels for a pre-cruise stay in Fort Lauderdale, including four- and five-star options. There are both standalone hotels and beach resorts, including the five-star Marriot Beach Resort and the impressive Hyatt Regency Pier Sixty Six. We also recommend the Westin Beach Resort and Spa, the Crowne Plaza, the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort and Hilton Marina, the Renaissance Fort Lauderdale Plantation and the Ritz Carlton as excellent hotels for a pre-cruise stay, all close to amenities and offering quality accommodation and dining.
