HOTELS
1. Stay at a hotel with free shuttle -You can stay at some hotels the night before your cruise that have a free shuttle to and from the cruise port and or airport – which saves you money!!!

2.Stay
at a Hotel with Free Breakfast

3 Choose a Parking Friendly Hotel. - Hotels with free parking is another great way to save and make things easier. Hotels where you can stay the night before your flight or cruise allow you to keep your car parked there the whole time for free. This also extends your vacation a day.
5.Look for coupons

6.Check Hotel Reviews - This is a must. There is a huge difference between staying at a cheap hotel and staying at a hotel cheaply. No one wants to stay at a place that has been known to have bed bugs and roaches or being in a high crime area etc. I always check trip advisor to ensure the hotel I'm planning to stay is acceptable. If you use hotwire or Priceline you take a chance. That's why I usually will only pick a 3 star or above when booking through them.
