Help from Florida Peeps Please :-)
 

We are looking for a nice oceanfront hotel / condo that is as close as possible to the Westin in Hollywood for the Internext in August.

We are going to rent a car but dont want to drive too far.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

My complex which is up the street from the Westin (2-3 miles) has a hospitality "suite" which is basically a 2 bedroom fully furnished apartment (with a washer & dryer) for $99/night or I think $500/week

Not oceanfront but it's about a 5 minute bike ride to the beach from here.

Why am I moving again? haha

thanks for the info.. I will keep that in mind. I am really looking for something right on the ocean.. it is not too often we get to go to Florida and I love the ocean..

since the westin no longer allows smoking.. I need to find another place close by.


where are you moving to luv?

Let me know if you reconsider...

I am moving to Omaha - grandparents aren't doing too hot (though, they're doing a bit better now but the wheel is already in motion to move).

This was the reason for the change to sapphic.

do a search on corporate housing on google - youll find some stuff there

Why not stay at the Westin Diplomat?

No Smoking at all :disgust


are you going to Florida Charles?? :winkwink:

Yup, just booked my room and flight yesterday. Couldn't you just get a room with a balcony to smoke on it? Surely the Westin can't enforce what you do on the balcony, unless they have snipers across the street looking for you, lol.

I heard that they are charging a huge fee if they smell smoke in your room at all..
its discrimination lol :disgust

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh That was funny WG !

Get Ocean view no where for the snipers to perch

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

very funny... from what i hear.. the charge is $250-$400 extra if it smells like smoke.
The westin gets alot of people with crazy charges.. juicy ruint a towell there once and was charge over $50 for it lol:1orglaugh

Watch for the submarines, department of homeland security is working closely with the Westin... LOL

BehiaCabana! :pimp

hehehe :winkwink:

I think you should be alright on the balcony's though. Technically, you aren't smoking in your room :winkwink:
WG

ya.. we probably will.. that is the problem lol :1orglaugh

I second that for a great location!

Thanks Wizzo.. I will check it out now :thumbsup

Flawed logic on the Westin's part. The room will smell like smoke if smokers stay in it-even if they don't smoke in it.

So, why not just make sure the slider was shut while you smoke on the balcony, and bring febreeze with you to spray your clothes and hair before you go back in?

maybe you should just quit.

thank you.. much better than orbitz :thumbsup
