Hi Russbarb
If you'll have a car parked while you're off cruising, a park/cruise package is definitely the way to go. Pier parking is $10 a day.
The Holiday Inn-San Pedro and The Best Western Sunrise (while NOT scenic) both have packages. The packages runs about $100 and include breakfast, some extras, a shuttle to/from pier and free parking for up to 7 days. Here's a site with lots of San Pedro info. San Pedro Cruise info
If I can be of any more help just let me know.

Keep'em flying
