Night-Before Score
The verdict

It runs nearly the same play as TownePlace on the same street, for a little less on both the parking and the shuttle. What it gives up is the kitchen — and certainty.

Shuttle seats and parking are handed out at the front desk the night before, first come, first served — so check in early if several ships sail that morning.

Book it if

  • Couples who want the lowest total for car plus ride
  • Travelers who don't need a kitchen
  • Anyone arriving the afternoon before, in time to claim a shuttle seat

Look elsewhere if

  • You're traveling with a pet. None allowed.
  • You want the shuttle booked well ahead. Country Inn takes bookings a week or more before you sail.

Can I check in early or check out late on cruise days?

Check-in is 4:00 PM and check-out 12:00 PM. The hotel doesn't publish early or late terms, so ask when you book, not on the day.

Will the hotel hold my bags?

The hotel doesn't say. Most hotels will hold bags between check-out and a late shuttle, but that's a call to make, not an assumption.

Does the port shuttle come back for me after the cruise?

The hotel publishes only the ride to the port. Go Port runs a shared shuttle back to MCO from 7:00 AM, $29.99 a person, and MCO puts a taxi at about $115 for the car.

What's the breakfast timing on sail morning?

Free hot American buffet. Mon–Fri 6:30–9:00 AM, Sat–Sun 7:00–9:30 AM. Your terminal check-in window is in your cruise documents, and the port asks you not to arrive before it.

Can I park an oversized vehicle or charge an EV?

EV charging: on site, per the hotel. Clearance and oversized parking aren't published. The port's garages take oversized vehicles; check the port's parking page for clearance before you bring anything tall.
