Houston Hotel to/from Port Transportation

[S.A.M.J.R.]

We're cruising on RCCL's Harmony of the Seas in July.  Now that we've got our air booked, I've been browsing here and Google to select transportation to/from the port.  We're staying next to Houston Hobby since we get in late the night before the cruise.  Here's the list of companies I've found...

Galveston Limo	https://galvestonlimo.com/
Galveston Express	galvestonexpress.com
Island Breeze Shuttle	https://www.islandbreezeshuttle.com/
Livery Houston	www.liveryhouston.com
Stark Livery	www.starklivery.com
Galveston Shuttle and Limo	https://galveston-shuttle.com/

 

I know the first two have been mentioned on here to good reviews.  Anyone have any thoughts on any of the others?  Anyone to stay away from?  We're a party of 8, so that limits us a little bit. 

 

TIA.

We are booked with Galveston Limo in March based on reviews and recommendations here and elsewhere. With them, I was only given the option of the shuttle in the morning from the airport. We are staying near Hobby the night before our cruise at a hotel with a free shuttle. We will have to take the shuttle back to the airport in the morning to then board the Galveston Limo shuttle. Not ideal, but I am trying to avoid a long Uber ride with a lot of luggage. I do worry about how crowded the airport shuttle might be to get back to Hobby.

 

Have you found that any of these companies will pick up at your hotel? With 8, maybe you can get a private vehicle, but with only 4, that is prohibitively expensive for us.

I've gotten responses from two (not surprising since I messaged on a weekend).  Both have offered private pickup at the hotel, but fairly expensive ($650 & 700 RT) IMO.  We paid around $400, including tip, for RT from Walt Disney World to Port Canaveral for a group of six in 2016 and 2022.  

 

If we do shared shuttle, Galveston Express is $60 RT, and an extra $50 if we have them pick up at the hotel vs going back to the airport.
