Port Canaveral hotels for Dec 2017

Cruising out of Port Canaveral for the first time next December, yes….407 days, but who's counting! Good thing I enjoy the journey as much as the destination :D

Anyway, I have never been there before so I wanted to get an idea of the area and where to stay. When I plugged in my dates it's showing that most places are already booked. I'm not going during the holidays, the hotel is for one night on 12/1/2017.

Is this normal for that port to book up so early? I didn't think I'd need to book until a few months prior to departure but now I'm rethinking that. Any thoughts from experienced Port Canaveral cruisers would be greatly appreciated.

I also thought that maybe a lot of hotels didn't open up their booking windows yet for that far out so maybe that's why they're showing as unavailable?

You are too early for December 2017. Try again after the first of the year.

Most regular hotels only do reservations about a year ahead. Some maybe only 12 months open at a time so that really makes less than a year. Fancy resorts style might do longer than that but not most.

Nat9511 is right..you can't book more then 12 months out

Thank you Nat, DD, and Bunny….I started to think that was the reason as I was typing my question but wanted to make sure.

Much appreciated!!
