From $350 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Edgewater Beach Hotel in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the terminal greeting included in the fare and a $20 name-sign option if you want it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
Edgewater Beach Hotel stands at 1901 Gulf Shore Blvd N in Naples, on Florida’s Gulf coast — the opposite shore from where your ship ties up. It is a beachfront address in the fullest sense: the sand and the water begin just past the property, so guests here often trade the ship’s pool for real shoreline the same afternoon they come ashore.
Naples wraps powder-soft beaches and the pier around a walkable downtown, and staying on Gulf Shore Boulevard puts you close to all of it. Many guests fit in the Naples Pier and the galleries and cafes of Fifth Avenue South soon after they arrive. Third Street South sits nearby with its own shops and courtyards, and the Naples Botanical Garden is an easy addition for a slower morning. Between the water on one side and the town on the other, the hotel gives you both without a long drive in either direction.
What matters for the transfer is simple: this is a Gulf-coast destination, well west of the port, and the ride is planned to set you down at the hotel’s own door rather than a nearby lot. Anything about the stay itself — rooms, dining, the pool deck — lives on Edgewater Beach Hotel’s official page. Our part is the run from the pier to that door, with your luggage handled at both ends and the shoreline waiting when you step out.
From the terminal it is one steady run west and across the state — about 131.5 miles along I-75, ending at the door of Edgewater Beach Hotel. Plan on roughly 131 to 142 minutes terminal to door depending on traffic. Disembarkation mornings back up fast at the exits, so your chauffeur is staged before you clear the hall; the wait is theirs, not yours, and the highway does the rest.
You are met at the curb of your own terminal, not sent to hunt through a parking lot, and your bags go straight into the vehicle with the driver handling them at both ends. Your booking includes 30 minutes of complimentary wait at the port, which quietly absorbs customs and the luggage hall — so the pace of the terminal never costs you the ride. You walk out, the vehicle is there, and Naples is next.
Rideshare lines and shared shuttles add waiting and extra stops; a private vehicle leaves when you are ready and goes only where you are going. The fare covers the whole car, the tolls and the fuel.
Reserve with a 50% deposit; hand the balance to the driver on the day by cash or card. Fares are quoted per vehicle, one way, with tolls and fuel included.
A child seat can be installed for $15 when you book. Night service, meaning 9 PM to 7 AM, adds $20 to the SUV inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 beyond. Extra stops are metered at $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.
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.
There were six of us stepping off at PortMiami, and one private transfer to Edgewater Beach Hotel was far simpler than splitting into cars. There was a generous grace period from the agreed time, so we never had to rush off the ship. The night before, we got a message with the driver’s name and plate number, so there was no guessing at the curb on the way out.
The two of us cruised from PortMiami and having a private car meet us at the terminal for the ride over to Edgewater Beach Hotel made the morning easy. No line to stand in — we just walked from the terminal to a car that was already there.
The two of us sailed out of PortMiami and having a private car meet us at the terminal for the ride over to Edgewater Beach Hotel took all the stress out of it. We got a clear confirmation, so there was nothing to worry about at the terminal. It was a private car for our party alone — no side pickups — so much nicer than piling in with strangers.
Viajando con los niños, reservamos una van privada para que nos esperara en la terminal de cruceros y llevara a todos hasta Edgewater Beach Hotel. El auto estaba impecable, con lugar para todo.
I didn’t feel like chasing a ride the morning I got off the ship, so I booked a private car from the terminal to Edgewater Beach Hotel. Getting off the ship on my own, I felt in good hands from the terminal all the way to the door of Edgewater Beach Hotel.
