I was on a Norwegian Cruise line Cruise from Dec 7th to the 14th and parked at the cruise terminal garage next to were the NCL Breakaway was docked. The cost was $136 for seven days.
Each ship will have their own garage right across from your ship. I don't know if your cost will be the same because Disney is a premium cruise line.
I've also driven to Miami and Ft Lauderdale and did the same. I've never had a problem.

We use PNC (park n cruise). Shuttle bus is short ride to terminal and much cheaper.

Save hassle. Park in the garage near where the ship leaves from. When you return you will be first off with your luggage. First thru customs and go right to your car.

Yes, there are various parking garages, some with shuttles, available at Port Canaveral.
If you call Village Airport Van and tell them you need round trip shuttle to Port Canaveral, they will refer you to one of their drivers (who has several backups in case he's out of town) who will take you in a small shuttle van. The cost was less than double the charge to Orlando Airport, and it was for everybody in the van, not per person. So quite reasonable, and takes you right to the cruise ship. We have used this service twice recently, and have high level of confidence with them.

I parked at Park and Cruise...1700 sea ray drive...perfect location...this side of bridge so you don’t get tangled up in traffic before or after cruise...right off 528...easy on and off...quick free shuttle to ship and easy pickup back to car. They also do free valet parking...they had my car pulled up to leave with the trunk open for my luggage when I got back from the ship...they know when you get on the van back to the parking lot, so they are all ready for you! very nice and well organized...and less than half the cost of garage parking.

What was the cost for a week?

I just booked today for a week long cruise we are taking in January. Their website has discount codes for 10% for veterans and 5% for AARP, AAA and others. We get the 5% off and including taxes and fees, it’s $94.05.

We find Park and Cruise to be more convenient than the parking garage because you avoid all the congestion driving to the terminal, and more importantly we don’t have to carry our bags through the lot. They load your bags in their parking lot, and then drop you off curbside where the porters take over.

Others will drop their bags off with the porters and then park in the garage and walk to the terminal.
Your choice as to which is easier.

I second using Park n Cruise! It is actually much more convenient than parking at the port. Especially if you don't want the hassle of hauling your own luggage across parking lot terminal and to/from where you've parked!
I use a mobility scooter so handling all our luggage is difficult even though my able bodied husband does most of it.
Park n Cruise even puts my scooter on and off the shuttle for me with no disassembly.
