I think I found a new pre-cruise hotel. Harbor House is clean inside and out. Their grounds are well kept and you park your car right next to the hotel. And it’s spacious too! It’s right on the water where you can watch the boats come and go. The only thing that made me hesitant to book earlier are the AC units in the rooms rather than central AC. But seriously don’t let that stop you. I wish I had booked this place years ago.

Harbor House has the most peaceful rooms, a great view of the pier, cozy bed, nice shower/bathroom and yummy breakfast. Dee is so sweet and helpful.

Love everything about my stay. My only suggestion is to update the TV’s to smart TV’s so you can change the input status in order to use other devices such as Netflix, Amazon, etc.

We stayed a night at this hotel before jumping on the cruise. It was amazing! Great location (walking distance to port) check in was super easy. Dee was amazing so friendly and funny! Rooms are beautiful and modern. Super clean. Restraunts in walking distance.
