Best place to park car in Galveston?

Where is most convenient and safest place to park car when sailing out of Galveston?

We really like Galveston Park n' Cruise. Its right across the street from the main entrance to the cruise terminal. Drop off you luggage at the terminal, go across the street and park and walk back across the street and enter the terminal. So close there is no need for a shuttle. They are clean and safe.

Another vote for Galveston park n cruise. $40 for a 5 day in a secured garage! We parked there last oct and will do so again in 12 days for our second cruise!!!

I second Galveston Park N Cruise. It's awesome not having to wait for a shuttle. They also offer covered parking too..

We like EZ Cruise where they shuttle you and your luggage to the terminal. Jason is awesome - jello shots on the bus !

I've used the port parking, hotel parking, and Galveston Park n Cruise, and the last was the best. I will always use them in the future.

In the Galveston park 'n cruise, do u use the covered or outside parking??

Another vote for Galveston park n cruise, we have used them twice in the past and will be using them again in a couple of weeks, outdoor parking so far as it seems reasonably secure, the indoor parking is in a series of old small industrial warehouses outdoor is in the spaces between the buildings, all fenced in. Only downside is parking is packed tight and some of the lots have irregular shapes, not a problem unless you have a big SUV, etc, even then they have helpful people to guide you in and out of tight spaces, they also have a golf cart and will shuttle you to the corner of their lot..

I prefer EZ Cruise parking.

Another park n cruise fan! Love that it is right across the street. Have used ez cruise before and wasn't a fan of waiting for the shuttle....

EZ Cruise gets our vote.

EZ Cruise gets our vote.

We used EZ Cruise earlier this month and had to wait in a line of cars after we had paid to be escorted to another location. They now have four locations but you check in at the original locaiton. The wait time depends on how long before a shuttle is available to lead you to the other spot. Also there was a tremendous line waiting for a shuttle after the cruise. Probably will try something else next time.

Used lighthouse, smaller lot, less busy. You don't want to wait in line at the port to drop your luggage off, line can be looong. Shuttles have a different line and they don't wait as long. We did not wait for a shuttle, the shuttle was already there waiting for us.

This is our first cruise out of Galveston and we decided to leave the car at the Hotel Galvez where we will stay on arrival. Looks like it should be secure. :)

I am a fan of Galveston Park n Cruise! I have used them twice now and love the fact that I can drop my bags at the terminal, drive across the street and park and then take the short walk back. They even have a little golf cart that will take you back up the street after you park and wonderful customer service! Plus while everyone else is waiting on a shuttle to take them to their cars, I can walk across the street get my car and be on my way! I booked online and paid $35 for a 5 night cruise.

Have used both Lighthouse and EZ Cruise. Didn't like the one time @EZ when we had to caravan to the remote lot. We are using lighthouse again on cruise next month. Never have had to wait for a shuttle.

I've used EZ cruise 3 times and never, never a problem!

TIP:

I've used EZ twice while sailing on the Conquest, now Magic (7 day) and parked in Lot 1. If you are sailing on the Ecstasy, now Triumph (4-5 day) you will most likely park in lot 2, which is several blocks away and you will have to take the shuttle. There was no way I was going to walk to terminal from lot 2, but when I parked in lot 1, I walked to and from the terminal; only a block and took 5 mins. I would probably not park in EZ Cruise if I was cruising a 4 or 5 day. ALSO, I get the terminal very early (around 10am) and I've never had to wait in the line of cars that everyone speaks of. One of the perks of getting there early.

A not very well know or advertised tidbit about parking at the Galvelston Cruise Ship Terminal. Veterans with "Service Connected Disability" park free. You must show your VA Disability Letter or VA card showing % of disability at check in. A disabled car tag or plackard is not required.

Had always used ez cruise, but hated the remote locations that they have obtained. And definetly hate the whole shuttle bus part of it. Tried Galveston Park & Cruise in Oct. and loved it. Dropped friends and luggage off at pier, went and parked and walked across the street to join them. Already booked for Dec 1st and will use them again in July.

Come on Thursday... This week is gonna dragggggggg!!! :D

We always use Lighthouse. We have always paid in advance online and received a small discount. The shuttles are fast and very friendly.

I wanted to pick based on price, but I am surprised to see that they are all the same price. $50 for 7 days booked online outdoor parking.

How safe is this parking option? We are taking my daughters car. She is stationed at lackland. I'm rated at 60% service connected. Since its not my car I want to make sure its safe or secure.
