From $590 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Spark of Imagination Villa in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
Tell us the ship and the driver times the pickup to its arrival, then waits at your terminal’s curb at PortMiami. The meet-and-greet there is included in the fare; a name-sign welcome is a $20 add-on. From the port the ride is direct, with no other passengers.
Spark of Imagination Villa is a private vacation home in the Davenport and Clermont area, part of the belt of gated pool-home resorts and golf communities that spread southwest of Disney. This is Orlando’s vacation-home country: ChampionsGate anchors the district, Clermont’s lake hills rise to the north, and every address across the area sits on our route. Your driver brings you to the entrance of the villa itself, bags carried to the curb, one location per reservation.
Around the villa the setting is quiet and residential rather than resort strip. Guests who stay here often fit in a round at ChampionsGate or Reunion Resort once they have landed ashore, and the outdoors sits close by, with the Clermont chain of lakes and Lake Louisa State Park both within the Davenport and Clermont area. Details specific to the property itself, such as early check-in, luggage holds, and on-site amenities, live on Spark of Imagination Villa’s own official page, which the script links below.
After a cruise this is a genuine road trip inland, and that is exactly where a private vehicle earns its keep: space to stretch after days aboard, your own climate setting, and stops made only when you ask for them. Traveling with young children is routine for us, so one seat for a child under 5 is included and each additional seat is $20. The SUV carries up to five travelers with luggage, while the vans cover groups of six to nine or ten to fourteen. However your day is shaped, the arrival is the same: one direct ride, no luggage-drag across the port, dropped right at the door.
From the moment you clear your terminal on Dodge Island, the ride is planned around your ship rather than around app availability. Your driver is coordinated by message as you exit the hall and meets your group curbside at the correct terminal, so tell us the cruise line and we stage there in advance. Bags go straight into the vehicle, and your booking includes thirty minutes of complimentary wait, so the pace of customs never costs you the ride.
From the port the driver follows Florida’s Turnpike for the 234.4-mile run to Spark of Imagination Villa, normally 236 to 246 minutes, with Turnpike traffic the only real variable. The vehicle is reserved for your party alone, door to door, with tolls and fuel already built into the quoted rate. Your group is dropped at the villa entrance, bags carried to the curb beside you.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Details such as an extra passenger or a child seat can be adjusted up to 12 hours before the pickup. The date itself is fixed once booked, so double-check it before you confirm.
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.
There were six of us stepping off at PortMiami, and one private transfer to Spark of Imagination Villa was the smart move.
Our whole crew walked off at once and it was a relief to have one private van waiting at the terminal for the ride to Spark of Imagination Villa — everyone in one vehicle. The ride from the terminal to Spark of Imagination Villa was easy the whole way, and we could just settle in. There was a thirty-minute cushion from the agreed time, so we never had to rush through customs.
Just as easy as it sounded — a driver waiting, bags loaded, and an easy ride over to Spark of Imagination Villa.
With the whole crew, arranging a private car from the port to Spark of Imagination Villa meant no scramble on disembarkation morning.
Getting off the ship on my own, I had a driver there with my name on a sign for the ride to Spark of Imagination Villa — nothing left to chance. No lot to comb through — I just walked from the terminal to a car that was already there.
