From $130 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Ventura Resort 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.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, a name-sign pickup adds $20, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Ventura Resort sits along the Palm Beach County coast, up in Boca Raton, one of the calmer stretches of South Florida’s Atlantic shoreline. It makes an easy base for travelers who want the ocean close by without the density of the bigger cities, with the beach, the town’s parks, and its shopping all within comfortable reach. After a cruise, it is the kind of place where the pace slows down the moment you settle in.
Boca Raton gives the stay plenty to fill a few unhurried days. The landmark pink resort anchors the town and sets its tone, while Mizner Park draws visitors to its boutiques for browsing and an easy afternoon out. Gumbo Limbo Nature Center, with its sea-turtle tanks, sits within easy reach for a short outing, and Red Reef Park adds a quiet stretch of sand and shoreline nearby. Florida Atlantic University rounds out the immediate neighborhood, so the area around Ventura Resort covers coast, culture, and green space in one compact corner of the county.
When your ride reaches Ventura Resort, the chauffeur pulls up to the entrance and handles every bag from the vehicle to the door, so the last stretch of the trip is as calm as the setting itself. You step out at the resort rather than at a busy terminal curb, with the whole vehicle reserved for your group from the port straight through to arrival. It is a gentle way to close out the day you leave the ship and open your time on the Boca Raton coast.
The trip runs as one direct leg from the cruise terminal to Ventura Resort’s door. Once your group clears the exit hall and customs, the car is already staged at the terminal curb, so the chauffeur is waiting on you rather than the other way around. There is a 30-minute courtesy wait built in to absorb the slow crawl of a disembarkation morning, and the driver loads every bag into the vehicle before you pull away. From there it is a straight run north on I-95, with the whole car reserved for your party alone.
Plan on roughly 70 to 85 minutes from the terminal to the resort entrance, depending on the hour and how heavy the traffic runs. Mornings at the port stack up fast at the exits, but because the vehicle is positioned before you walk out, that wait stays off your clock. You leave the ship, the car is there, and Ventura Resort is the next stop.
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.
Booking takes a 50% deposit; the other half goes to the driver when the ride is done, by cash or card. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
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.
The black SUV takes up to 5 passengers with their luggage; the vans carry 6 to 9 or 10 to 14 with room for the bags. Tell us how many people and how many suitcases travel and the right vehicle is assigned.
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.
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.
We came off the ship tired but happy and a driver already waiting to take us to Ventura Resort set the tone for the rest of the trip. Booking was quick, we got a solid confirmation, and everything lined up perfectly. For a no-hassle way to get from the ship to Ventura Resort, it was well worth it. Thanks for the smooth handoff!
Un grupo de nosotros bajamos del barco juntos y reservamos una van privada del puerto a Ventura Resort. El van estaba con espacio de sobra para todo el equipaje del crucero, un alivio con el calor de Miami. Había un cartel con nuestro nombre en la acera, así que ubicamos al conductor sin dar vueltas.
We cruised with a group of friends and wanted everyone and the luggage in one private ride to Ventura Resort after disembarking.
Viajando con los niños, reservamos una van privada para que nos esperara en la terminal de cruceros y llevara a todos hasta Ventura Resort. Sin caos en el puerto — caminamos de la terminal a un auto que ya estaba ahí. Llegar a Ventura Resort a primera hora significó que pudimos hacer el check-in y por fin darnos una ducha tras la semana en el mar.
My husband and I stepped off the ship at PortMiami and a private car was waiting at the terminal curb to take us to Ventura Resort. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and license plate, so there was no guessing at the curb on the way out.
