bdziewit Posted December 5, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Does anyone have a recommendation on hotels that would have shuttles to the Port? Trying to decide whether to stay in Orlando for the night and take a shuttle in the morning or go straight to Port Canaveral and leave from there.

CruiserBruce Posted December 5, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Why time does your flight arrive? That would be a key determinant. The later, the more likely I am going to be inclined to stay in Orlando. There are many threads here on hotels in the PC area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted December 5, 2018 #3 Share Posted December 5, 2018 We prefer to stay in Orlando where there are 1000's of hotels in every price range, and then head to PC the morning of our cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarasgrandma Posted December 6, 2018 #4 Share Posted December 6, 2018 We really enjoyed our stay at La Quinta Inn in cocoa beach on A1A..,,there are two right near each other......this one was owned by the original astronauts and had some neat decorations. We used cocoa beach shuttle to get from airport to hotel. The hotel does have a shuttle ($7/pp) to get to the port. This hotel was within walking distance to restaurants, a dollar general, the beach.

The four closest to the port are Homewood Suites, Country Inn & Suites, Residence Inn and Radisson At The Port. All offer a shuttle to the port....the first three also have free breakfast. The Radisson does not but there is a restaurant on site, a family restaurant next door and a McDonalds across the street. Personally I prefer the first three over the Radisson as it has become a bit dated. Edited December 6, 2018 by GTO-Girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseapril Posted December 11, 2018 #6 Share Posted December 11, 2018 We like to stay in Port Canaveral the night before as it takes some time to get from Orlando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From MCO and nearby hotels, it takes under an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooked On Cruising 4ever Posted December 11, 2018 #8 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Stay at the Best Western Cocoa Beach...great location and great staff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob.Jane Posted December 12, 2018 #9 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I can recommend Residence Inn at the port. Not a bad hotel and there is a shuttle to the port in the morning. We also stayed several times at the Hyatt right inside the Orlando airport. In the morning we took a private shuttle to the port. Just check the hotel rates and it will be clear.

goncruzn Posted December 12, 2018 #10 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I've stayed at the Homewood Suites in Port Canaveral. Depending on location of room, great view of port/ships in the morning and about 5 minutes away from port. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slidergirl Posted December 12, 2018 #11 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Those hotels are all within a few blocks of each other (take a look at Google Maps). There is a nice food option available to all of them, Southern Charm. A nice, locally-owned, non-chain restaurant, easily walkable from all. Plus, you could do a little walk back to the Manatee Sanctuary Park or the Banana River Park from any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelbell Posted December 22, 2018 #12 Share Posted December 22, 2018 We just stayed at Bestwestern in Cocoa Florida.(not cocoa beach) it was $88 a night w/taxes. Free breakfast. The hotel looks dated from the outside, but completely renovated inside. Before we went (2/8/18) I have read that the pool was not open, it was when we were there. It was maybe 15min/20 tops from the port. I have also read staff not friendly, once again we did not experience this. Near everything Dunkies, waffle house, sams club. It was are first time going to port canaveral, not being familiar with the area, just felt we should stay one night. We only require a clean, safe area. And pleasant employees always a plus (warm cookies in the lobby all day) Next cruise I will just drive day of, but if I did stay I would stay there.
