coz09 Posted July 14, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Can anyone give me information on the parking at the port of Miami? We have always flown in and now we are not! Is there parking right at the port and what is the cost? Or is other parking better? Or a close motel that anyone would recommend with a shuttle and we can park at the motel?

PhillyFan33579 Posted July 14, 2019 #3 Share Posted July 14, 2019 We have always parked our car at a parking garage at the port when cruising out of Miami. Very short walk to and from the terminal. The last time we cruised out of Miami was in May. It cost $22.00 a day to park at the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cellfree Posted July 14, 2019 #8 Share Posted July 14, 2019 We tried an off-site parking facility once - never again - long line of vehicles to get into lot and even longer line of cruisers waiting for shuttle to cruise port - then upon disembarkation never saw complimentary shuttle back to parking facility and ended up taking a taxi back to off-site parking facility - $22 does sound pricey but will always use it from hereon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coz09 Posted July 15, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted July 15, 2019 cellfree, I wondered about that. It does seem like your paying for piece of mind. I am having a heck of a time trying to find a motel with parking and shuttles to take us to port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cellfree Posted July 15, 2019 #10 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Go to the Board that has information on the Port of Miami and it should have information on hotels with parking and shuttles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flymia Posted July 15, 2019 #12 Share Posted July 15, 2019 90% of people here will tell you to park at the Port. There are not many hotels that offer cruise and stay parking. $22/day while not cheap in a city like Miami is a pretty good price. My office building is $30 for a few hours of parking. The parking lot is right across the street from your terminal walk to and from your car. With a off site parking you are dealing with shuttles, and bags, and where is your car going to be left at etc.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corby114 Posted July 16, 2019 #13 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) The only safe place to park your vehicle is directly at the Port Of Miami. I have read too many sad stories since I joined Cruise Critic in 2001 of damaged vehicles which were left at off site locations in the City Of Miami. Pay twenty two dollars a day at the Port Of Miami and your vehicle will be safe and secure during your cruise. Many long time Cruise Critic posters who live in Miami say the same thing about this subject. There are plenty of safe and secure off site parking locations in Port Everglades, Port Canaveral, Jacksonville, and Tampa. Unfortunately there aren’t any in Miami.

Flymia Posted July 16, 2019 #14 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) As someone who has lived and worked in Downtown Miami for over 5-years, and living here my entire life including parking in being in Downtown Miami multiple times a month since 2005, this is not a safety issue IMO. It is that the non-port parking lots for lack of a better word suck. You will be waiting for crowded shuttles in the heat, your car might be moved around, it might not, you are waiting for shuttles to get back to your car etc.. You will spend 2-3 hours dealing with parking to save $10-$12 a day. And your car will be outside and not as secure. Incidents do happen. Or you can park your car and walk to the ship and walk back to your car for $10-$12 a day more. Edited July 16, 2019 by Flymia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Noxequifans Posted July 16, 2019 #15 Share Posted July 16, 2019 One does not to want to worry about their vehicle while on a cruise .... the Port is the safest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
