We had a power failure for several hours one evening when on Regatta. Nobody told us anything. People with walkers and scooters were trying to figure out what to do.
Depends what you call near cruise port. We are staying at Protea Fire & Ice . It's about a 10 min drive. Something at the V&A Waterfront would be even closer .
Depends on the port
We had a couple of places where the shuttles stopped for an hour during lunch times
Each night they leave a copy of CURRENTS. It will give info about the port. Very helpful.
