Homewood matches the leaders on everything except the ride. Parking is among the cheapest published near the port, the suites have kitchens, and breakfast is free.
The hotel doesn't run its own cruise shuttle — it points you to Go Port, a separate company. By its own account the terminals are five minutes away, so a taxi or rideshare is a short one — price it in before you compare.

- Travelers with a pet
