shipmate5967 Posted June 10, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I've cruised several times out of Port Canaveral and stayed at the Radisson where they'll keep your car for free during the cruise if you stay with them one night. So my question is, does Miami have the same set-up? If so, what's the name of the place? Need to book a place for the end of July. In the past, we always paid to park at the port, but we're looking for a better option. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locals will tell you to only park at the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccio Posted June 10, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 10, 2016 There is no better option. Park at the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanatravel Posted June 11, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I've cruised several times out of Port Canaveral and stayed at the Radisson where they'll keep your car for free during the cruise if you stay with them one night.

In the past, we always paid to park at the port, but we're looking for a better option. Thanks! I had the same dilemma. As a Hilton Honors member, I prefer a Hilton brand hotel. I just "called" directly to the Hilton Garden Inn West Airport hotel and got what I consider to be a good deal: Overnight king room, buffet breakfast, parking for 15 nights and shuttle to the port for under $250. Parking at the port alone would have cost me $280. My favorite downtown Hampton Inn charges $22 a night for parking and the overnight best rate was just about the same. I hope all goes well. Reviews on TripA were mostly positive especially re: parking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted June 11, 2016 #5 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Look at some of the popular chains at the airport Blue Lagoon area. Hampton Inn there is a good choice. As mentioned there are some areas you wouldn't want to leave your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted June 11, 2016 #6 Share Posted June 11, 2016 (edited) You can search http://www.parksleepfly.com or http://www.stay123.com for hotels offering cruise parking deals, but I would listen to Blue and the others and strongly consider parking at POM. None of the hotels includes a free shuttle from POM back to your car, so figure a $30 cab ride when calculating prices.

You can park at any of these hotels for a cruise--but you have a taxi ride to the port. http://www.airportparkinginc.com/reservation/search/mia?gclid=CKfvrq7XpcoCFQEnHwodShIEfA I have used the Crown Plaza--maybe 50 times with my Mercedes--it is safe and secure!!

shipmate5967 Posted June 11, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Thanks Everyone! Didn't realize Miami was so unsafe, good thing I'd asked. Appreciate your advise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueHerons Posted June 12, 2016 #9 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I have used the Crown Plaza--maybe 50 times with my Mercedes--it is safe and secure!! It's South Florida. Even my pizza delivery guy drives a Mercedes. SUVs, trucks, luxury cars, and electric cars get stolen. If your Mercedes is a 2014 or newer with the blue led lighting, that will probably get stolen, not the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted June 12, 2016 #10 Share Posted June 12, 2016 We park at the port terminal parking! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
