From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Fort Lauderdale to Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
The meeting point is simple: the entrance of your hotel or the front door of your home in Fort Lauderdale. The driver helps with the suitcases, settles everyone in, and takes the direct route north to the resort. A 15-minute courtesy wait is included at the pickup address.
Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa is a sprawling lakeside property in Orlando’s theme-park belt, built as a comfortable base for families who want to divide their week between the big parks and quieter time back at the resort. Rather than a place to simply sleep between gate openings, it treats downtime as part of the trip, with room to spread out and settle in after a long day on your feet.
Arrive and you find suites with full kitchens, which suits groups who would rather cook a few meals between park days instead of eating out every night. Several swimming pools give everyone somewhere to cool off, a lake invites a bit of paddling, and a full-service spa is on hand when tired legs need it. On-site restaurants round out the property, so an easy dinner never means leaving the grounds.
The resort sits in Orlando’s main attractions corridor, close to the Universal area and the wider International Drive entertainment district. That places the headline theme parks, the restaurants and the evening scene within the surrounding zone, so the whole family stays close to everything a Central Florida trip is built around. Your chauffeur brings you right to the resort entrance, so the first thing you do is walk in and check in rather than hunt for parking. It makes a natural landing spot for a group that wants resort comfort written into the schedule alongside the parks themselves.
The ride begins at the Fort Lauderdale door you give us — your hotel, home or any South Florida address. Your chauffeur arrives at the agreed time, loads every bag into the vehicle, and settles the group before pulling away. From there it is one coordinated run north toward the Orlando resort corridor, with tolls and the long highway stretch handled entirely by your driver. Nobody transfers to another vehicle, and no one else is picked up along the way.
Plan on roughly 3.5 to 3.6 hours from one door to the other, with off-peak mornings sitting closer to the lower figure and busy afternoons or holiday weekends nudging toward the top. Because a single driver stays with you the whole way, a short comfort stop for a restroom or a coffee is easy to slot in — just say the word. You step out at the Westgate Lakes entrance rested and ready.
One vehicle, one party, one fixed price: nobody else boards, the route runs straight to the door, and the driver handles the bags at both ends. It is the simplest way to start or end a trip without lines, apps or surprises.
A 50% deposit reserves the ride online; the balance is paid to the driver on the day, cash or card. The fare is one way and per vehicle, so what you see above is the full price for the trip.
Daytime service runs 7 AM to 9 PM; outside that window the SUV carries a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 beyond. The first child seat or booster is included on request; each additional one is $20. Extra stops along the way are $45 per 30 minutes.
Black SUV for up to 5 passengers, van for 6 to 9, van for 10 to 14: the choice is made from your passenger and luggage numbers so nobody rides squeezed.
Edits to the booking, like adding a passenger or a seat, are accepted until 12 hours before the ride. Moving the date is not possible after booking.
To book, WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748. Share the date, the number of travelers and bags, and we lock in the driver.
Reserving a few days ahead is ideal, and in peak season (holidays, spring break, big cruise weekends) a week or more keeps your first-choice vehicle available. Requests inside 24 hours are welcome but depend on availability, and those bookings are non-refundable once confirmed.
We run on reservations rather than on-demand pickups. A same-day request may still work if a driver is free: message us on WhatsApp with the pickup time and we will confirm quickly. Keep in mind that a ride booked within 24 hours of pickup cannot be refunded.
No. A 50% deposit holds the vehicle when you book online, and the other half goes to your driver on the day of the ride, in cash or by card. If you prefer to settle everything at once, choose Pay in full at checkout.
Yes. After the deposit, the remaining half is paid directly to your driver when the ride is done, cash or card, whichever you prefer. There is nothing else to pay unless you added an extra service.
Cancellations are free up to 24 hours before the pickup. Inside that 24-hour window the ride is non-refundable, and no-shows are treated the same way. Booking details such as an extra passenger or a child seat can still be updated until 12 hours before pickup.
The pickup time and other details can be adjusted until 12 hours before the ride, subject to driver availability; write to us as soon as your plans change. The travel date itself is fixed once booked, so double-check it before you confirm.
Payments run through Stripe over an encrypted checkout; we never see your card number. Card payments carry a 3% processing fee that is shown before you pay. Zelle is also accepted for the deposit with no fee: ask us on WhatsApp.
Not at all. Travelers reserve from all over the world, international cards are accepted at checkout, and we answer on WhatsApp and email in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Yes. Give us the flight number when you book and your driver tracks it in real time, so the pickup follows the actual landing rather than the scheduled one, at no extra cost.
Message us the moment you know. We reschedule around the new arrival whenever a driver is available; because that counts as a change to the booking, the cancellation terms above still apply if the ride cannot be rebooked.
At MIA your driver meets you at the arrivals level at the curb, and that greeting is included in the fare. If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign, add the Meet & Greet for $40 when you book. At the cruise port the curbside greeting is always included.
You receive the meeting instructions in advance, and the driver contacts you the day before the ride to confirm every detail. On landing, head to the agreed curb; connect to the airport Wi-Fi and message us on WhatsApp if anything is unclear.
The day before the ride we send the driver’s name and phone number, and the vehicle details you need to spot the car. Vehicle photos on the site show the category booked; the exact model can vary.
Call or WhatsApp us at +1 (786) 682-8748 and we connect you right away. The pickup is always coordinated at the confirmed spot, and the courtesy waiting time keeps running from your landing or your scheduled pickup.
At the airport we wait up to 60 minutes after landing on domestic flights and up to 2 hours on international arrivals; at hotels, homes and the cruise port the courtesy wait is 15 minutes. Beyond that, waiting is billed like an extra stop, $45 per 30 minutes.
The distance and the usual driving time for this exact route are listed on this page. Real timing depends on traffic and the hour, which is why the driver plans the pickup around your actual landing or ship arrival rather than a fixed clock time.
Yes. Your driver loads and unloads every bag at the curb. Drivers do not go inside the hotel or terminal to collect luggage, so have it with you at the meeting point.
Each passenger can bring one large suitcase plus one carry-on. The black SUV carries up to 5 passengers as long as passengers plus large suitcases total 10 or fewer; larger groups or extra bags move to a van. Surfboards, bikes or many extra cases need a custom setup, so tell us before booking.
Yes. Add them when you book: a child seat for babies and toddlers up to about 3 years, or a booster for ages 3 to 5. The first seat or booster is included with your booking, each additional one is $20, and they are fitted before the driver leaves for the pickup.
Planned stops are fine when you add them at booking, priced at $45 per 30 minutes with a 30-minute minimum, then $1.50 per extra minute. Unplanned detours on the day are not part of the fare.
Never. Every transfer is private: the vehicle carries only your group, door to door, with no other pickups and no waiting for strangers.
A black SUV for up to 5 passengers, a van for 6 to 9 and a larger van for 10 to 14. The fare table on this page shows the price for each. For groups above 14 we arrange several vehicles or a minibus on a custom quote.
No. We pick up and drop off at Miami International Airport, PortMiami and the other cruise terminals, hotels, private homes, offices and event venues across South Florida and beyond.
Yes. Wedding parties, corporate groups and private events get a tailored quote with the right mix of vehicles; message us with the date, head count and schedule.
Between 9 PM and 7 AM the black SUV adds a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 farther out. The fee is shown in the quote before you book, and daytime rides carry no surcharge.
The fare shown is for the exact route named on this page. For a different pickup or drop-off address, use the ride search on this site: it prices the real road distance instantly and lets you book on the spot.
The fare includes the driver, fuel and tolls, with no hidden fees. Only optional items add to it: the 3% card fee, the Meet & Greet at MIA, child seats, extra stops or the night fee, each shown in the quote before you pay. Tipping is at your discretion.
Privado, puntual y sin estrés desde nuestra puerta en Fort Lauderdale hasta la entrada de Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa. Recibimos un mensaje esa mañana confirmando la hora en Fort Lauderdale, y el auto ya estaba ahí al salir — nada que perseguir.
Traveling with our little ones, I was NOT going to drive the Turnpike loaded with luggage, so I booked a private van from our hotel in Fort Lauderdale to Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa. We got a message the night before confirming the pickup time in Fort Lauderdale, and the car was right outside — nothing to chase. Booking was quick, we got a clear confirmation, and it all matched what we were told.
For our anniversary we went from our place in Fort Lauderdale to Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa and wanted the drive to be part of the vacation, so we booked a private SUV. We set an early pickup so we could make the most of the first day, and the driver was right on time. We dozed the whole way up from Fort Lauderdale — worth it compared to driving it ourselves.
I was staying at a small hotel in Fort Lauderdale and needed to get up to Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa for the next leg of my trip, so I pre-booked a private car. I set an early pickup so I could make the most of the first day, and the driver was outside as promised. Booking was simple, I got a clear confirmation, and it all went exactly as planned.
My wife and I booked a private transfer from our hotel in Fort Lauderdale up to Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa so we could just relax on the way up. We caught up on messages the whole way up from Fort Lauderdale — so much better than white-knuckling the Turnpike.
