Embarkation morning
10:30 AM
Sleep on the island the night before your cruise
Leave your car in our gated lot, eat breakfast on the gallery, and reach the terminal in a few minutes. Parking is $12 a day for guests, a sample rate for this demo.
The morning
How does embarkation morning go?
The same five steps for every guest who sails.
Coffee at 6:30
It is on the hall table with the morning's baking.
Breakfast at 8
Cooked to order on the gallery. If your arrival window is early, ask for a breakfast bag the night before.
A ride at your window
Celeste drives guests to the terminal between 10:30 and noon. Your cruise line assigns your window, and it is on your boarding pass.
Your car stays behind the gate
The lot is behind the house and the gate is locked at night.
A ride back
Call when you are off the ship and we collect you from the terminal.

The night before
Why stay the night before a cruise?
A ship does not wait for a late flight or a closed freeway. Guests who drive in from Dallas, Austin or San Antonio the day before start the trip rested and already on the island.
All four terminals are on Harborside Drive, on the harbor side of the island, a few minutes from the East End by car.
The parking rate and the rides are part of this demo's story. On a live site this page would carry the inn's own package and price.
