9.2/10 Wonderful! (747 reviews)
Property was in good condition. They seem to maintain the property well and plenty parking. The staff were very friendly, always with a smile ready to greet. It was just what we were lookin for. Beach not very crowded, the waters were warm, the pool was very clean and all this made out stay feel very comfortable.

Jan 31, 2020If you need parking while going on a cruise, use parking doctors. Extremely reasonable rates and they have free shuttle service. Couldn't be more convenient. And muchcheaper than parking at terminal. Your car will be just across the street from terminal. You can and should book online. Paid about $50 for 7 or 8 days of parking. Highly recommend!
