The Conrad is the space pick. Every room is a suite with a kitchen and a terrace or balcony, and the residences have full island kitchens. AAA rates it Four Diamond, and Forbes lists it as Recommended.
Takato, Spinnaker and Vitolo are on site, so is the CONRAD Spa, and the beach is out front. There's no cruise help: no shuttle, valet at $60, and a $48 nightly resort fee per a fee tracker. Hilton lists the port 2 miles away — which looks short next to the Four Seasons' 5.3 from the same boulevard.
Trust the longer one when you plan the morning.
Book it if
- Families or groups who want a kitchen and room to spread out
- Longer stays before or after the cruise
- Anyone who wants the ocean from a terrace
Look elsewhere if
- You want the port ride handled.
- You want the resort fee confirmed before you book.
