Transportation

  • Most of the visitors to the Tides choose to drive, primarily because the parking at the Tides is fairly inexpensive and with many things to do and see in Florida.  But for those who prefer to vacation at the Tides without driving, you are not alone (10%).  The Tides is on the beach after all, which offers great pools, amenities and even has a restaurant on first floor. Nearby, there are good choices of restaurants and Super WalMart (for groceries) is a short 5 minute walk.  In terms of alternate modes of transportation you have the following options:

  • Taxi / Uber

    • Tides to Fort Lauderdale (FLL): Uber X:  $16-21, Uber XL $31-39, Taxi: $35-40

    • Tides to Miami airport (MIA): Uber X:  $25-35, Uber XL $40-60, Taxi: $55-70

  • Car rentals. It is often cheaper to rent a car directly from the airport. But if you would need to rent a car while at the Tides, Hertz Rent-a-car has an office right by the Westin Diplomat.

  • Hollywood Trolly. An economical and convenient way to travel from the Tides to the Hollywood Boardwalk, and to downtown Hollywood. Once costs $1 per person per direction.

  • Water Taxi. Offers a wonderful way to sight-see the waterways, marinas and mansions from Hollywood all the way to Fort Lauderdale.
