That’s super exciting!!! Happy Cruising

If you cant find a hotel on the island you can always try to find a place in Webster or Dickenson which are both just up I45.

My opinion, Galveston has some learning to do about cruising. We’ve been on numerous cruises out of Ft Lauderdale no complaints, Galveston was a horrible mess, embarking, disembarking, and even on the ship, continuously very contest and lengthy waits. Disembarking was by far the worst I’ve seen.

Galveston is bringing up their game, and they need to! The big ships are here so the big crowds of people are coming too. We’ve sailed out of San Juan, Long Beach, Miami, Ft Lauderdale and Port Canaveral. Long Beach was a pain embarkation and debarkation. Miami made us want to scream. San Juan went smooth. Canaveral has been smooth and a waiting game. We’ve got faith in Galveston being prepared for the party! Thanks for watching!

Thanks this very helpful ❤👍🏽

Thank you. Galveston is a fun port to travel out of. You just need to keep in mind a few things.

Was stuck out at sea for over 8 hrs due to fog. People going on the next cruise out couldn’t find places to park until we disembarked. The streets were lined with cars. This was a RCCL cruise and I think Carnival had a ship stuck out there as well. This was towards the end of January so not like it would be during the summer months. Galveston is a mess and not very convenient unless you live around the area, which we did but it was still a bit of a drive and traffic is ALWAYS a mess here.

Thank you. Galveston can be a little tricky to maneuver but well worth it

Thank you for this information. I'm so happy I found your channel. I need all the information I can get for our cruise in March of 2024. RCCL Harmony of the Seas. I was looking into some Airbnbs for our pre stay. 🙏 And from reading the comments we better book very soon. 😅

Alot of great restored small personalized hotels right in the area. Some seen on HGTV as they've been remodeled.

Very helpful video!! Super helpful vlog. We are cruising to Mexico in coming spring. And returning back from Dallas airport on the same day at 6 pm flight. Do you think that is doable or have a high chance to miss the fight?

I believe it’s doable but unless any delays take place. Happy Cruising and thanks for watching!

Tell me about the transportation opinions on Galveston, such as bus and trolley? Do they go to the cruise piers? Will they let you on with luggage? Thanks!

Thank you!

take 275 to the port or stay on the main road (I- 45)?

Great information. We plan to fly into Hobby for our Feb 2024 cruise on Harmony of The Seas. This port is a logistical nightmare compared to the ports in Florida. I think I know the answer to this question but are there any hotels in Galveston that offer a shuttle from the AIrport? I know the cruise line shuttles are an option but, based on my research so far, I think I want to be as far south as Texas City on embarkation day and not sitting on a bus fighting traffic from the airport.

Thank you. I like to give everyone the “ heads up” when traveling to this port. I haven’t found any hotel in Galveston with airport shuttle. I’ve found several independent companies that will transport you. Thanks for watching!

No it’ll take you an hour or more to get to Galveston from Houston depends on time of day. I have family in area & have taken 6 cruises from that port.

I am about to be sailing from that terminal in March 2024

WooHoo. Happy Cruising

I will be sailing out of Galveston in Sept. 2024 on the Harmony of the Seas. I have tried to book a hotel on Galveston Island. Today is June in 2023, so we are still 15 hours out. Every single hotel there and up the coast all say SOLD OUT. I have been on almost 50 cruises and have never seen all the hotels already sold out. Where can we stay?

Hi Sharon. That’s so frustrating. This happened to us once when I tried to book my hotel a year and a half in advance. Ultimately I kept checking and was able to find a place about 8 months before. Keep checking and Happy Cruising!

I've noticed many don't allow reservations that far in advance. We were JUST able to book a room last week for March 2023. Maybe give the hotel a call that you are interested in and ask them if that's their policy as well. Good luck!!!!!

If you are looking for just one night, that might be your problem. At least some of the hotels only book two nights or more esp if one is a Friday or Saturday.
