From $450 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Fort Myers Palms Resort Retreat in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full trip one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
The pickup follows the flight, not the schedule you booked weeks ago, so an early landing or a late one changes only the meeting time. You are met at MIA arrivals with the greeting included in the fare, and a name-sign meeting inside the terminal is available for $20 more. From there it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Fort Myers Palms Resort Retreat sits in Fort Myers, out along the Gulf coast where Fort Myers Beach runs the length of Estero Island. The island carries about seven miles of soft Gulf sand, so the water is rarely more than a short walk from your door. This is the barrier-island side of Fort Myers — flat, bright, and built around the beach rather than the highway.
The retreat puts you within easy reach of the landmarks that give Fort Myers Beach its character. Times Square gathers near the pier at the heart of the beach, an easy anchor point for a first evening out. Just south, Lovers Key State Park spreads its mangroves and quieter shoreline, while Bowditch Point Park sits at the northern tip of the island. Estero Island ties all of it together, so a stay here keeps the sand, the pier, and the parks close at hand.
Arrival is meant to be simple. Because the coast sits so near, a stay at Fort Myers Palms Resort Retreat often begins only steps from the sand — easy to set your bags down and walk straight out toward the water. There are no long transfers once you reach the island; the beach, the pier, and the parks are all part of the same compact stretch. You settle in, and Fort Myers Beach is already at the doorstep.
The trip is door-to-door from the moment you land. After you clear the terminal at Miami International Airport, the driver meets you curbside and carries your bags to the vehicle. From arrivals the route heads out via I-75 toward the Gulf coast — one reserved ride with your group in a single car, no changes and no waiting at the curb for a match.
Plan on roughly 145 to 158 minutes, depending on how I-75 is moving. Your luggage rides with you the whole way, and because the pickup is timed to your actual landing, an early or late flight simply shifts the meet — the car is held for you either way, with room to stretch on a longer drive.
Booking the ride in advance locks the price and the vehicle size, puts a driver on your arrival time, and turns the first leg of the trip into the easiest one. The group stays together and the luggage rides with you.
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.
Rides between 9 PM and 7 AM add a night fee for the SUV: $20 within Miami-Dade and Broward, $50 farther out. Child seats are available for $20 each. An extra stop is billed at $45 per 30 minutes of the detour.
The black SUV takes up to 5 passengers with their luggage; the vans carry 6 to 9 or 10 to 14 with room for the bags. Tell us how many people and how many suitcases travel and the right vehicle is assigned.
Send any change to the party or extras at least 12 hours before the pickup. The booked date is final.
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.
Your driver meets you at the MIA arrivals level at the curb, and that meet-and-greet is included in the fare. If you would rather be greeted inside the terminal with a name sign, add the name-sign welcome for $20 when you book.
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. Each seat is $20 and is 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, a name-sign welcome, child seats, extra stops or the night fee, each shown in the quote before you pay. Tipping is at your discretion.
Los dos aterrizamos en MIA de vacaciones y teníamos un conductor esperando apenas llegamos a la zona de arribos. Nos recogieron puntual, en camino a los minutos de salir de arribos. Era un auto privado para nuestro grupo, lo que hizo el viaje a Fort Myers Palms Resort Retreat tranquilo.
Nuestra familia llegó a MIA y el conductor ayudó con todas las maletas — una gran ayuda. Sinceramente la parte más fácil de nuestro viaje — la llegada fue sin estrés. Rastrearon el aterrizaje, así que aunque llegamos tarde, el auto ya estaba ahí. Muy recomendable.
Getting all of us out of the airport is usually a headache — one pre-booked van to Fort Myers Palms Resort Retreat made it painless.
For an easy arrival, my husband and I booked this to get from MIA straight to Fort Myers Palms Resort Retreat. It was a private car for our party alone, which made the ride to Fort Myers Palms Resort Retreat relaxed. We were on our way within minutes of clearing arrivals, no waiting around.
Vinimos a Florida de aniversario y empezar el viaje con una recogida privada marcó la pauta. Rastrearon el aterrizaje, así que aunque llegamos tarde, el auto ya estaba ahí. El conductor nos dejó exactamente donde necesitábamos. No pudo ser más fácil.
