From $450 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way trip, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
Arrivals at MIA can feel hectic, so the meeting point is simple: the driver, already aware of your landing time from the flight tracking, waits at the arrivals level. The standard curbside greeting costs nothing extra, and a name-sign pickup inside the hall is offered for $20. After that, the trip is private and direct.
Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort sits on Fort Myers Beach, the long barrier strip that stretches along Estero Island on Florida’s Gulf coast. Estero Island carries about seven miles of soft, pale sand, and the resort places you right on that shoreline, where the water stays shallow and the beach runs on well past the building. When you step out of the vehicle, that stretch of Gulf sand is the center of everything, steps rather than a drive away.
The heart of Fort Myers Beach gathers at Times Square, the open pedestrian plaza set beside the pier. It is the easy landmark for the island — a short run of shops and open-air tables close to the resort — and the pier itself reaches out over the Gulf, a natural spot to watch the water and the boats come and go through the day. Most of the island’s everyday life sits within a short walk of this corner.
Just south, the mangroves of Lovers Key unfold inside Lovers Key State Park, while Bowditch Point Park anchors the northern tip of the island. Both are within easy reach once you have settled in, and both hand you a quieter, greener side of the coast away from the sand. Between the beach in front of the resort, the plaza at Times Square, and these two parks framing the island, Fort Myers Beach gives you a compact stretch of Gulf shore to settle into.
Your driver is waiting in the terminal as you come off the flight, helps with the bags, and walks you to the vehicle — one booking, one pickup, and the car is yours alone from the curb. From there it is a single leg, your luggage loaded and the route already planned, straight to the door at Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort.
The run to Fort Myers Beach follows I-75 for most of the way and usually takes 144 to 155 minutes door to door, covering roughly 142 miles. Because the pickup is timed to your actual landing rather than a fixed slot, a delayed flight simply moves the whole pickup, so there is no scramble to find a ride after a long trip. On a longer haul like this one the private vehicle earns its keep — room to stretch out, your own climate control, and a driver who can plan a rest stop along the way if you want one.
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.
No. A 50% deposit secures the booking and the remaining half is paid to the driver on the day, cash or card. Nothing else is charged unless you add an extra service.
The regular window is 7 AM to 9 PM; night pickups in the SUV add $20 in Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 elsewhere. A child seat is $20 on request, and any added stop is $45 per 30 minutes.
Up to five people ride in the SUV; larger parties move to a 6-to-9 or 10-to-14 passenger van so everyone and every bag travels together in one vehicle.
Up to 12 hours before pickup you can change passengers, luggage or extras. Dates are locked at booking and do not move.
Message us on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 with your date, passenger count and luggage, and we confirm the vehicle and the pickup details.
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.
Our family of four arrived in Miami, and the driver had the child seat ready — such a help. It was a private car just for us, which made the ride to Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort relaxed.
La llegada más fácil que hemos tenido — conductor esperando, maletas resueltas, directo a Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort. La tarifa fue fija y acordada de antemano — sin taxímetro, sin sorpresas, que agradecimos después de viajar.
Viemos à Flórida de lua de mel e começar a viagem com uma busca privativa deu o tom. Um começo relaxado para nós dois de férias. Nosso voo atrasou e o motorista continuou lá esperando — sem preocupação nenhuma. Obrigado pela chegada tão simples!
Los dos aterrizamos en MIA de vacaciones y teníamos un conductor esperando apenas salimos de la aduana. Un comienzo relajado para los dos de vacaciones. El conductor nos dejó justo en la puerta de Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort. Muy recomendable.
The two of us flew into Miami for vacation and had a driver waiting the moment we reached arrivals. It was a private car just for us, which made the ride to Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort easy and calm. The driver was happy to speak English or Spanish, which made the whole thing that much easier. Made landing in Miami so simple.
