From $535 per vehicle: private one-way ride, Port of Miami to Resort Living In The Wonderful Burnt Store Marina Community.
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.
Resort Living In The Wonderful Burnt Store Marina Community is a place built around life on the water. This is a marina community on Florida’s Gulf coast, the kind of address where the day is keyed to boats, docks, and the slow tempo of a waterfront neighborhood rather than the rush of a big city. If you are traveling here after a cruise, you are trading the crowded terminal for quiet streets and open sky.
The setting sits within the broad boater’s grid of southwest Florida, and Cape Coral is close by. Cape Coral spreads across more canal miles than any city on earth, a web of waterways with direct Gulf access, waterfront parks, and easy island runs for anyone who likes to be out on the water. That gives the whole area an unmistakable character: canals threading between homes, working docks, and a coastline that invites you to slow down and stay a while.
Once you have settled in, there is plenty within reach to fill the days that follow your cruise. The Cape Coral canals are the obvious draw, and Sun Splash Waterpark is nearby for families who want a full day out. For quieter hours, Fourmile Cove Ecological Preserve and Rotary Park sit close at hand in Cape Coral, both good for a walk, a paddle, or an easy afternoon in the outdoors. It adds up to a relaxed, water-first stretch of Florida, and your ride from the port drops you right at the door.
This is a genuine road trip, and that is exactly where a private vehicle earns its keep. From the Port of Miami it is one continuous run of roughly 184 miles along I-595, ending at the door of Resort Living In The Wonderful Burnt Store Marina Community with no stops along the way. Your bags travel inside the vehicle with you, your driver is staged and waiting before you clear the terminal hall, and the whole group rides together in space to stretch out and your own climate zone.
Plan on about 181 to 190 minutes terminal to door, depending on the hour and the traffic. Disembarkation mornings back up fast at the terminal exits, so the driver absorbs that wait instead of you. Once you are on the road, it is a steady, straight drive west to the marina, and any stops happen only when you ask for them.
The car waits for you, not the other way around. Your group travels together with the luggage in the same vehicle, the fare is known before the ride, and the driver takes the direct route to the destination.
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.
Yes, outside 7 AM to 9 PM the SUV adds $20 inside Miami-Dade or Broward and $50 beyond those counties. Child seats can be added for $15, and stops on the way cost $45 per 30 minutes.
A full-size suitcase per passenger fits the SUV with five aboard; groups of six or more move to a van sized 6-9 or 10-14 with the cargo space to match.
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.
Private, punctual, and we didn’t have to worry about anything between the ship and Resort Living In The Wonderful Burnt Store Marina Community. The ride from the terminal to Resort Living In The Wonderful Burnt Store Marina Community was calm and comfortable, and we could just settle in.
A great way to finish the trip — handled from the curb to the lobby. It was a private car for our party alone — nobody else to wait on — a relief after a week aboard.
The two of us sailed out of PortMiami and having a private car meet us at the terminal for the ride over to Resort Living In The Wonderful Burnt Store Marina Community made the morning easy. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and plate number, so there was nothing to figure out on the way out.
Reservamos una sola van para la comitiva entera de la terminal a Resort Living In The Wonderful Burnt Store Marina Community para que hiciéramos el check-in todos juntos. Sinceramente la parte más tranquila del viaje — del barco a la puerta del hotel sin estrés. Pasamos de la terminal a una cama de verdad sin nada de qué preocuparnos en el medio.
There were seven of us stepping off at PortMiami, and one private transfer to Resort Living In The Wonderful Burnt Store Marina Community was the smart move. Booking was easy, we got a solid confirmation, and everything matched what we were told. We’ve already earmarked them for our next cruise out of PortMiami.
