The verdict

Here the ship ride comes in a bundle. The hotel's Park, Snooze & Cruise package covers your night, seven days of parking, hot breakfast and a one-way shuttle to the port for two.

The hotel doesn't publish the package price, which costs it points, and Hilton's own pages don't mention the package at all — the hotel's site does, not the brand's. Call and get the number, then book the package rather than a plain room.

Book it if

  • Drivers who want parking and the port ride in one booking
  • Couples, since the shuttle covers two
  • Late MIA arrivals. The free airport shuttle runs until 11 PM.

Look elsewhere if

  • You want dinner at the hotel.
  • You're bringing a pet.
  • You want the price in writing before you call.

FAQ

Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon FAQ

Does Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon have a cruise shuttle?

Only with a package or offer. Only inside the hotel's Park, Snooze & Cruise package: a one-way shuttle to the Port of Miami for two guests, and extra guests pay. Hilton.com doesn't list a port shuttle.

Does Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon have an airport shuttle?

Yes, from Miami International. From Miami International: Free airport shuttle, once an hour from 5:00 AM to 11:00 PM. From Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood: Hilton lists no shuttle from Fort Lauderdale.

Can I park at Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon while I cruise?

Yes, but the price isn't published. The Park, Snooze & Cruise package includes 7 days of long-term parking, one vehicle per room. The hotel doesn't publish the price.

How far is Hampton Inn Blue Lagoon from PortMiami?

Neither Hilton nor the hotel's own site gives a distance to the port. It sits in our Airport band.

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

Check-in is 3:00 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. Miami-Dade taxis from the port run on the meter with a $15 minimum, Carnival sells a transfer back for its guests, and shared shuttles are on Viator.

What's the breakfast timing on sail morning?

Free hot breakfast. 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: not on site. Clearance and oversized parking aren't published. PortMiami's garages are priced by garage; check clearance with the port before you bring anything tall.

Booking the cruise too?

Tell us your dates and we'll line up the ship, the hotel and the ride. A real advisor does the work. No obligation.
