From $590 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Westgate Vacation Villas in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
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.
Westgate Vacation Villas is a resort of rental villas set in the Davenport and Clermont area of Central Florida, west of the Disney exits along I-4. It sits in a stretch where golf resorts and villa communities gather, so the property has room to spread out and the surrounding roads stay calmer than the theme-park corridors just to the east. Many travelers use it as a base for a longer Central Florida stay after a cruise, and its position off the busy Disney exits is a large part of why.
The neighbors give you a sense of the setting. ChampionsGate and Reunion, both known for their golf resorts and rental homes, are close by, and the wider Davenport and Clermont area keeps the parks near without the crowds that fill the Disney gates. Lake Louisa State Park and Posner Park are nearby draws, and the Clermont chain of lakes stretches out for anyone who wants water and open air after a day indoors.
That location is the appeal of Westgate Vacation Villas: a home base with space, greenery, and easy reach to the parks, without landing you in the middle of them. Anything about the stay itself — the villas, the amenities, the layout of the grounds — lives on the property’s own official page, and that is the part you will want to check as you plan. Our part begins the moment your ship docks, carrying you and your group from the terminal to the villa door.
Your ride runs door to door. After you disembark at the Port of Miami cruise terminal, your driver is already there, waiting curbside and timed to your ship’s actual arrival rather than a fixed clock. There is a half hour of free waiting built in, so the customs and immigration lines never cost you the pickup. Bags go straight into the vehicle, loaded for you, and the group settles in together for the run north.
From the terminal the route follows Florida’s Turnpike toward the Davenport and Clermont area, a trip that generally runs about 233 to 244 minutes depending on traffic. The vehicle is yours alone for the whole way — no added stops, no strangers sharing the seats — so you set the pace and the breaks. At the end the driver pulls up to the entrance of Westgate Vacation Villas and carries your luggage to the curb beside you.
One vehicle, one party, one fixed price: nobody else boards, the route runs straight to the door, and the driver handles the bags at both ends. It is the simplest way to start or end a trip without lines, apps or surprises.
You pay a 50% deposit online to hold the vehicle, then the balance directly to the driver on the day, in cash or by card. The one-way fare above is the whole amount.
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.
Count passengers and bags and the vehicle follows: the SUV for up to 5 with luggage, the vans for 6-9 or 10-14. There is no splitting a group across cars.
Send any change to the party or extras at least 12 hours before the pickup. The booked date is final.
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.
Our whole crew walked off together and it was a relief to have one private van waiting at the terminal for the ride to Westgate Vacation Villas — nobody splitting up. We were dropped straight at the door of Westgate Vacation Villas, not down the block.
For a stress-free morning off the ship, my husband and I had a private driver waiting for us at the cruise terminal to run us over to Westgate Vacation Villas. We got a clear confirmation, so there was no guessing at the port.
The eight of us came off the ship together and arranged one private van from the cruise terminal to Westgate Vacation Villas.
Los dos salimos en crucero desde PortMiami y tener un auto privado listo en la acera para el viaje hasta Westgate Vacation Villas fue lo mejor del día. Reservar fue fácil, recibimos todo por escrito, y todo coincidió con lo prometido.
Auto limpio, sin esperas, y un conductor que sabía exactamente a dónde ir. Lo reservaría de nuevo. El viaje de la terminal a Westgate Vacation Villas fue cómodo y sin apuros, y pudimos ver pasar la ciudad.
