Best Cruise Hotel Packages for Families

Updated October 2024

Cruising from Port Canaveral is an ideal way to vacation with a large family, but finding the right hotel before or after your cruise can be a challenge. Most hotels only accommodate four guests per room, making it hard to find options that work for everyone. Plus, pre-cruise hotel packages often leave out crucial extras like transportation to Port Canaveral or cruise parking—especially for larger families traveling together. Many deals are priced for double occupancy, and you’ll end up paying extra for additional guests.

That’s where Go Port’s Fly Snooze Cruise Package comes in. It’s designed with families in mind, offering accommodations that can comfortably fit groups of five or more. Even better, everything you need is included for everyone—no extra fees, no surprises. You get a comfortable hotel stay, convenient transportation, and peace of mind, all in one affordable package!

Below, we’ve put together a list of Fly Snooze Cruise hotel packages that can easily accommodate families of 5 or more.

Staying in Orlando

If you’re flying into the Orlando International Airport (MCO), spending the night in Orlando is the most convenient option for you. The last thing you want to do is drag the whole family on a 45-mile trek to the coast after already spending hours traveling together. When flying in, you’ll be able to settle into your hotel room just minutes after you land. There will be plenty of time to make it to your ship the next morning.

For each of the hotels listed below, Go Port’s affordable, convenient Fly Snooze Cruise packages include:

• 24-hour shuttle service from the Orlando Airport to your hotel just 5 minutes away
• pre-cruise hotel stay
