From $350 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Innovation Hotel 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.
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.
Innovation Hotel sits on Florida’s opposite coast, over in Naples, a good long haul from the cruise piers of the Atlantic side. The drive takes you clear across the peninsula on I-75, so by the time your chauffeur turns off toward the hotel you have swapped the bustle of the port for the quieter rhythm of the Gulf. The group is dropped right at the entrance, bags carried to the curb beside you, and the day is yours from there.
The setting is one of the real draws. The Naples Pier and the shops and galleries of Fifth Avenue South both sit within easy reach of the stay, close enough to fold into an afternoon without much planning. Naples pairs powder-soft beaches with an easy, walkable core, and that mix of sand and street is a large part of why travelers point their transfer this way.
There is more just beyond the door. The Naples Botanical Garden makes for a calm morning among the plantings, and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park puts protected shoreline within a short hop for anyone who wants the beach without the crowd. For the hotel side of things — amenities, luggage holds, early check-in and the rest — Innovation Hotel’s own official page carries the current detail. What we handle is the part between the ship and that front entrance: one private vehicle, your group only, running direct to the door so the arrival is the simple part of the trip.
Pickup happens at your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island, planned around your sailing rather than around whatever is free at the curb. Disembarkation mornings back up fast at the terminal exits, so your chauffeur is staged before you clear the hall — the wait is theirs, not yours. Bags go straight into the vehicle with luggage help at both ends, and then it is one exclusive vehicle, your group only, pointed west.
From the port the route runs I-75 for the long crossing to Naples, roughly 131 miles door to terminal. Plan on about 132 to 143 minutes on the road, quiet hours to rush hour, and the group is set down at the Innovation Hotel entrance. Gas, standard tolls and bag assistance are already inside the flat rate, so the number you booked is the number you pay when you step out.
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.
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.
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.
Smooth transfer, fixed fare, no surprises from the terminal to Innovation Hotel. Recommend it without hesitation.
There were nine of us stepping off at PortMiami, and one private transfer to Innovation Hotel was the smart move. Getting to Innovation Hotel first thing meant we could settle in without waiting around.
My partner and I wanted a clean handoff outside the terminal, so we reserved a private ride to Innovation Hotel before we even sailed. For a no-hassle way to get from the ship to Innovation Hotel, it was well worth it.
The two of us set up a private transfer for after the cruise so we wouldn’t hunt for a ride getting over to Innovation Hotel. The fare was fixed when we booked, the same number we were quoted. Booking was simple, we got a solid confirmation, and everything lined up perfectly.
My wife and I wanted a clean handoff outside the terminal, so we booked a private ride to Innovation Hotel before we even sailed. Booking was easy, we got clear pickup details, and everything went exactly as planned. An easy, relaxed handoff for the two of us — off the ship and into Innovation Hotel with nothing left to sort out.
