Pier Sixty-Six
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Pier Sixty-Six is worth booking for a high-end stay near the cruise port and airport, with the top guest score among the 9 hotels we compared. Skip it if you dislike add-on charges, because guests report extra costs for parking, breakfast, the minibar and resort fees on top of a rate of about €486 a night.

It fits travellers who want a full-service, 5-star stay with a spa, pool and gym, and who value being close to the cruise port and the airport. Couples before or after a cruise are an obvious match. Families can look at the listed family rooms.
Budget-conscious guests should look elsewhere. The nightly reference price is about three times the median of the hotels we sampled, and guests warn that extras add up quickly.
Location and getting around
The hotel sits on the 17th Street Causeway at 2301 SE 17th Street. Guests describe the setting as convenient for the cruise port and the airport, and several mention marina views. The location score is 9.3.
The places in our data are not walkable. Dania Beach is about 5.3 km away, roughly 66 minutes on foot, and Oakland Park about 8.8 km, roughly 110 minutes. Both figures are straight-line estimates. Plan on a taxi, a rideshare or public transport for outings beyond the hotel.
What guests say
Service gets the strongest praise. Reviewers describe a friendly, professional team that is attentive from check-in onward. The position near the port and airport, and the views over the marina, come up next.
Value is the sore point. Guests mention high charges for parking, breakfast and the minibar, plus resort fees they did not expect. Ask for the full total before you commit.
Price compared with our other two picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 November, 2 adults, one room) was €486.32 a night, about €973 for both nights. It is not a live quote, and it may not include the fees guests mention. Check today's price for your dates.
Our Best Value pick, Riverside Hotel, came in at €184.20 a night with an 8.6 score and 4 stars. The Budget pick, La Quinta by Wyndham Ft Lauderdale Cypress Creek, was €111.45 with an 8.1 score and 3 stars. Pier Sixty-Six costs more than twice the Best Value option, and what you get is the highest score of the three, a 5-star setting and a wider list of facilities.
Listed facilities include a gym, spa, pool, restaurant, family rooms, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and a terrace. Breakfast options listed are Continental and Vegetarian, but guests say breakfast costs extra, so do not assume it is included.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 9 eligible properties in Fort Lauderdale. For the Luxury slot, five-star hotels come first. Pier Sixty-Six is rated 5 stars, an estimate given by the property itself, and its 9.3 from 462 reviews ranked joint first of the 9.
The score is the main reason it earned the place. The price and the extras are the main reasons to think carefully.
Before you book
Room size, noise, room condition, breakfast inclusion and cancellation terms have not been assessed. Read the rate rules closely, especially anything about resort fees and parking.
The listing tags the hotel as pet-friendly, but the policy is not confirmed. If you travel with a pet, ask about rules and fees in advance. Check spa and pool availability for your dates too.
