Creator's Key Takeaways

I have gone on seven Disney cruises from Port Canaveral and we have tried different places to stay ahead of time

I do think that is a great option for some people when we stayed I booked a hotel and I thought I got the room overlooking the airplanes and I didn't

I really recommend getting the Disney CR Cruise Transportation if you have a low Castaway club status because that gets you on the ship automatically early

โœ“Consider the Hyatt Regency at MCO for late-night arrivals
โœ“Stay near Port Canaveral/Cocoa Beach for easy port access and beach time
โœ“Use private transportation for flexibility and comfort

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

In this video I explain four different options of where you can stay before your Disney Cruise out of Port Canaveral: a Walt Disney World hotel, the Hyatt Regency hotel at MCO Orlando Airport, a hotel near Port Canaveral/Cocoa Beach, or an offsite hotel near the MCO airport. I also explain how using Disney Cruise Line (DCL) Transportation, private transportation, or driving fit with the decision of where to stay and what we like to do!
