From $630 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Bahama Bay 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.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. Meet-and-greet at the terminal is included; a name-sign welcome is available for an extra $20. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Bahama Bay Resort sits in the Davenport and Clermont area, the stretch of vacation-home country that fans out southwest of the Disney parks. This is Orlando’s resort belt: gated communities of pool homes, golf laid out across the flatlands near ChampionsGate, and the low lake hills of Clermont rising to the north. It is a quiet, spread-out corner of Central Florida built for travelers who want their own space rather than a downtown address, and Bahama Bay Resort fits that character.
Because the property is set out in this vacation-home belt, arriving by private vehicle makes a real difference. Your chauffeur takes you straight to the resort entrance and helps with every bag from the curb, so there is no juggling luggage across a parking lot or waiting on a group ride. You step out at the door, and the day ashore begins on your own terms rather than someone else’s schedule.
Once you have settled in, the surrounding area gives you plenty of reasons to stay put or explore. ChampionsGate and Reunion Resort are both close at hand for golf and dining, while the Clermont chain of lakes and Lake Louisa State Park offer open water and green space a short drive away. It is a base that rewards a group traveling together, with room to unwind between park days and easy access to the wider Davenport and Clermont region whenever you feel like heading out.
The trip from PortMiami to Bahama Bay Resort runs roughly 239.2 miles by Florida’s Turnpike, normally 246 to 256 minutes depending on traffic. It is a single, direct leg. After you clear your ship’s terminal on Dodge Island, your chauffeur meets your group at the curb, loads the luggage, and drives straight through to the resort with no changes of vehicle and no other passengers along the way.
Everything about the ride is built around your arrival day. The pickup is timed to when your ship actually docks, with courtesy wait time included, so a slow line at customs never costs you the car. Your bags stay in the vehicle from the port curb to the resort entrance, and the flat per-vehicle rate covers fuel and standard tolls, so nothing gets added once you are on the road.
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 $15 on request, and any added stop is $45 per 30 minutes.
The SUV seats up to 5 with their luggage; the 6-9 and 10-14 passenger vans keep bigger groups together. Send the head count and bag count and the vehicle is matched to them.
Passenger count, child seat or pickup detail changes are fine up to 12 hours ahead. The travel date cannot be moved to another day, so confirm it carefully.
Questions or ready to reserve? WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 and we take it from there.
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.
Traveling with our little ones, we booked a private van to be waiting at the curb and take everyone over to Bahama Bay Resort.
Llegando a tierra sin compañía, tenía un conductor con mi nombre en un cartel para el viaje a Bahama Bay Resort — sin nada librado al azar. El auto estaba impecable, con lugar para todo. Tenía los datos del conductor con anticipación, así que no había que adivinar nada en el puerto.
For an easy morning off the ship, my wife and I had a private driver waiting for us at the cruise terminal to run us over to Bahama Bay Resort. There was a sign with our name at the curb, so we spotted the driver immediately.
Para un desembarque tranquilo, mi esposo y yo hicimos que un conductor privado nos esperara en la terminal de cruceros y nos llevara a Bahama Bay Resort. Lo último que quieres tras una semana en el mar es un viaje que falle, y este fue totalmente sólido. Había un cartel con nuestro nombre en la salida, así que ubicamos al conductor sin dar vueltas. Muy recomendable.
After our week aboard, my wife and I didn’t want to risk a ride at the terminal, so we arranged a private car to Bahama Bay Resort. There was a courtesy waiting window from the agreed time, so we never had to rush to gather the bags. The SUV was clean, cool, and comfortable, a relief in the Miami heat.
