From $400 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hyatt Coconut Plantation 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 driver is outside the PortMiami terminal when you come through, plans around the ship’s real arrival time, and loads the bags. The terminal greeting is covered by the fare and a name sign is offered for $20. Then it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Hyatt Coconut Plantation sits along Florida’s Gulf coast, in the Bonita Springs and Estero area, with a drop-off at 11800 Coconut Plantation Drive. After a sailing out of Miami, it puts you on the quieter, western shore of the state — a real change of pace from the Atlantic-side port you left. That address is exactly where your chauffeur delivers you, so the last leg of a long travel day ends at the door rather than out in a parking lot.
The setting pairs beach and shopping within easy reach. Bonita Beach is known for its calm water, and Barefoot Beach Preserve keeps a stretch of shoreline in its natural state a short distance away. Inland, the Coconut Point and Miromar shopping villages give you room to wander when you want something beyond the sand. This is a part of the Gulf coast built for slowing down after the structured hours of a cruise.
Staying here puts the shoreline within steps, and plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they disembark. A beach day, an outlet run at Miromar, or simply unpacking and resting — the property gives you a base on this stretch of coast. Your ride is timed to your ship’s arrival, so you reach Hyatt Coconut Plantation without the day slipping away in logistics: the vehicle is staged, the luggage is loaded, and the coast is waiting.
From the pier it is a single run to Hyatt Coconut Plantation — roughly 141.2 miles along I-595, normally 150 to 161 minutes depending on the traffic that day. Your chauffeur meets your group at the curb of your ship’s terminal, not out in a parking lot, and the bags go straight into the vehicle. There is no second leg and no waiting on a headcount before you can pull away.
The pickup is planned around your ship’s actual arrival, with 30 minutes of complimentary wait built in to absorb customs and the luggage hall — you walk out and the vehicle is there. Fuel, standard tolls, and luggage help all ride inside the flat fare, and the vehicle is your group’s alone for the full drive. On a route this long, having your own ride means you set the departure and the pace across the state to the Gulf coast.
A reserved driver removes the guesswork after a long flight or a cruise morning: no queue at a taxi stand, no surge pricing, no shared stops. The group rides together and the price on this page is the price you pay.
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.
Daytime service runs 7 AM to 9 PM; outside that window the SUV carries a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 beyond. A child seat is fitted on request for $15. Extra stops along the way are $45 per 30 minutes.
Black SUV for up to 5 passengers, van for 6 to 9, van for 10 to 14: the choice is made from your passenger and luggage numbers so nobody rides squeezed.
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.
A great way to finish the trip — private, on time, and easy. We’ve already saved them for our next cruise out of PortMiami.
Mi esposo y yo bajamos por la pasarela en PortMiami y había un auto privado listo en la terminal para llevarnos a Hyatt Coconut Plantation. El conductor nos dejó justo en la puerta de Hyatt Coconut Plantation, y no del otro lado de la calle.
Our family of four came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver loaded every cruise bag for the ride to Hyatt Coconut Plantation. We were dropped straight at the door of Hyatt Coconut Plantation, not on a corner with the bags.
The group of us walked off at once and it was a relief to have one private van ready at the curb for the ride to Hyatt Coconut Plantation — everyone in one vehicle. There was room for everyone for the whole group and all our cruise luggage in one van to Hyatt Coconut Plantation.
Privado, puntual, y no tuvimos que preocuparme por nada entre el barco y Hyatt Coconut Plantation.
