My wife and I decided to do a three-night cruise, followed by four nights at Polynesian. We're also planning to add a night in a Duo Studio the night before the cruise starts. The hope is that once we park the car, we don't have to move it again until we head home at the end of the trip, and thus not have to pay to park at the port.
Regarding the buses to and from the port, do they cost anything? Do they have a set departure time from the resorts, or do you find out closer to the time? Is it generally an early departure, or closer to midday, given that check-in doesn't start until 11:00 AM?

We are also planning a land and sea trip in 2027. What i have found out (by calling the front desk at our home resort) is you can leave your car as long as you are staying on property for both stays. Just be sure to go to check in and let the cast member know what your plans are. We are coming to spend a couple of days prior to the cruise and then return for two nights before going home.
As to getting to the port there is a bus, but it costs $45/person/trip - $90/person round trip. You need to book your place on the bus through that company - I believe it is Mears. I would do a little research on other options just so you get the transportation you need. Have a great time.
