The hype
Guests rave about the bay views and the convenience for the cruise port, but consistently groan about the high parking costs and elevator wait times.

Rezervirajte ovaj smeštaj ako You're a cruiser needing a stress-free pre-voyage launchpad or a business traveler who wants bay views without South Beach chaos.
Zašto Ljudima Sviđa
- Incredible views of the Port of Miami (watch your ship come in)
- Connected to a mini-mall with a pharmacy and liquor store for last-minute supplies
- Solid rooftop pool deck that feels like a vacation oasis in the city
Brzi pregled: A highly functional, view-heavy logistics hub for cruisers that charges resort prices for a non-resort experience.
Pregledano od @AlanaSimmons9936728: I stayed at the Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay and I'm obsessed. The room is super bright and modern, but that view of the bay? Absolutely killer. Perfect spot for a girls' weekend—we already claimed our beds!

Reality check
The 'resort fee' feels like a money grab since the included bike rentals and yoga classes are rarely used by the transient pre-cruise crowd.
- You have a cruise departing the next morning
- You need a reliable workspace with a view
- You prefer a quiet night's sleep over all-night partying
Čistoća i održavanje
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though missed spots under beds are occasionally reported.
- Bathroom hygiene: Modern and clean, but watch for faint mildew smells in the grout due to Miami humidity.
- Maintenance: Recently renovated rooms feel fresh; AC is powerful but can be loud.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and standard Marriott quality; be careful not to stain them to avoid fees.
- Odors & scents: Lobby has the signature Marriott scent; rooms can sometimes have a 'damp' smell if AC is off.

Pre nego što rezervirate

- Wine opener (buy bottles at the connected liquor store)

Česta pitanja i skriveni saveti
Sve što zaista trebate da znate pre nego što rezervirate.
Is there a free shuttle to the cruise port?
No. Despite the proximity, you must take a taxi or Uber (approx. $10-15).
Can I walk to South Beach?
Absolutely not. It is a highway drive across the causeway. Walking is not an option.
Does the pool get sun?
Yes, but it's surrounded by high-rises. Morning to early afternoon is best; late afternoon can get shady.
Is the breakfast included?
No, and the buffet is pricey (~$32/person). Use your daily dining credit here or go to the connected mall for cheaper options.
Can I store my bags if I arrive early?
Yes, the bell desk handles this routinely for the cruise crowd, but expect a line.
Is the area safe to walk at night?
Generally yes, towards the Arsht Center and Margaret Pace Park, but avoid wandering too far west under the highway overpasses.
Insajderski saveti
- ✨
Walk through the lobby to the connected 'Grand Retail Plaza' to find 'Village Pharmacy' and a liquor store for cruise supplies at normal prices.
- ✨
The 'M Club' on the ground floor is excellent for elites, but if you aren't elite, the lobby cafe 'Espressamente Illy' has good coffee.
- ✨
Margaret Pace Park is just a block north—a stunning waterfront park perfect for a morning run or sunset walk, often missed by guests.
5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što krenete
💡The elevators can be a nightmare on Sunday mornings when everyone is rushing to the port.
💡There is a 'shower cleaning fee' dispute mentioned in reviews—don't dye your hair in the bathroom.
💡The 'City View' often just means 'Construction View' in this rapidly developing neighborhood.
💡You can watch the Miami Heat arena (Kaseya Center) light up from the bay-facing rooms.
💡The daily dining credit is 'use it or lose it'—buy snacks at the lobby market if you have leftover credit at night.
