SpringHill is the early-breakfast suite. Breakfast starts at 6:00 every day, every room is a suite with a sofa bed, and the free FLL shuttle runs from 4:30 AM to 11:45 PM.
It ranks fourteenth, a tiebreak behind the Hampton Inn Airport North — $10 a day there against $18 here. There's no port shuttle, and Marriott puts the port 7 miles away, so take a rideshare in the morning and leave a little more room than you think you need.
Book it if
- Three or four sharing a suite
- Early flights home, with the 4:30 AM shuttle
- Drivers who want a set parking rate
Look elsewhere if
- You're bringing a pet.
- You want dinner at the hotel.

SpringHill Suites Airport FAQ
Does SpringHill Suites Airport have a cruise shuttle?
Not that it publishes. Marriott's pages don't mention a port shuttle.
Does SpringHill Suites Airport have an airport shuttle?
Yes, from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood. From Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood: Free FLL shuttle on request, 4:30 AM to 11:45 PM. From Miami International: Marriott doesn't mention Miami International.

Can I check in early or check out late on cruise days?
Check-in is 3:00 PM and check-out 12:00 PM. The hotel doesn't publish early or late terms, so ask when you book, not on the day.
Will the hotel hold my bags?
The hotel doesn't say. Most hotels will hold bags between check-out and a late shuttle, but that's a call to make, not an assumption.
Does the port shuttle come back for me after the cruise?
There's no hotel shuttle to the port. the port lists Van on Demand booths at the terminals ($11 a person to FLL, $25 to MIA, parties of three or more), and taxis run on the meter.
What's the breakfast timing on sail morning?
Free hot breakfast. Daily 6:00–9:30 AM. Your terminal check-in window is in your cruise documents, and the port asks you not to arrive before it.
Can I park an oversized vehicle or charge an EV?
EV charging: not on site. Clearance and oversized parking aren't published. The port's garages have a 7-foot clearance, and oversized vehicles up to 24 feet park by calling 954-468-3680.
