Miami hotels with cruise parking
Many cruise passengers stay in the Miami area drive to Miami the morning of the voyage, and park at POM. Covered, convenient and secure for $22 – $25/day.
But many people likes to keep track of their spending when planning a vacation and your cruise from the Port of Miami is no different. However, most people, particularly those setting off on their first cruise, don’t realize that overall costs can rise dramatically once you add parking fees.
Official public parking in the Port of Miami costs around $22.00 per day ($25 or $28 if sailing Royal Caribbean). Multiply that by 7, 14 or 21 and you could be seriously out of pocket.
However, several hotels offer cruise parking services that could cost you as little as a one night stay. If you don’t plan on staying overnight, you can still park at some hotels near the port.
