From $400 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel 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.
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.
Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel sits along the stretch of Southwest Florida coast that runs between Naples and Fort Myers, in the twin communities of Bonita Springs and Estero. It is a calm, residential corner of the state, far quieter than the cruise port you have just left, and the hotel puts you within easy reach of the water and the shops that define the area. After a week at sea, the pace here tends to slow down, which is exactly what many travelers are after.
The surroundings give you plenty to do without going far. Bonita Beach and the Barefoot Beach Preserve keep the shoreline close, so a barefoot afternoon by the Gulf is an easy plan once your bags are down. For shopping and dining, Coconut Point and Miromar Outlets are both nearby, and Florida Gulf Coast University sits within the same Bonita Springs and Estero footprint. It is the kind of base that works whether you want a beach day, a browse through the outlets, or simply a quiet room to unwind in.
At the hotel itself you will find the practical things that matter most on arrival day. Details like early check-in, luggage holds, and the property’s full list of amenities are handled directly by Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel and confirmed on its own official page. Our part is getting you there in one clean run, so those first-day details are all you have left to think about. We drop you at the streets around your stay in Bonita Springs and Estero, right at the door, with your luggage carried from the vehicle rather than left at a curb.
The ride begins the moment you clear your ship’s terminal on Dodge Island. Your driver is already staged and waiting, coordinated by message as you come out of the hall, so there is no line to join and no scramble on the sidewalk. Bags go straight into the vehicle, you settle in, and the group travels together, one party per vehicle, door to door.
From the pier it is a single run west toward the coast, roughly 135.7 miles that normally takes 140 to 152 minutes by way of I-595. Disembarkation mornings back up fast at the exits, but because the driver is in place before you finish customs, that waiting is theirs and not yours. The ride ends at the door of Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel, with your luggage carried the last few steps from the vehicle to the lobby.
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.
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.
The regular window is 7 AM to 9 PM; night pickups in the SUV add $20 in Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 elsewhere. A child seat is $15 on request, and any added stop is $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.
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.
To book, WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748. Share the date, the number of travelers and bags, and we lock in the driver.
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 booked one van for the whole group from the terminal to Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel so the whole group stayed together.
The kids were running on empty when we walked off, and a private van already at the curb got everyone to Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel in one piece. The SUV was fresh and comfortable, and there was space for everything. No line to stand in — we just stepped out and the car was ready.
The two of us sailed out of PortMiami and having a private car waiting curbside for the ride over to Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel made the morning easy.
After a week at sea I just wanted a clean handoff, so a private car from the terminal to Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel was money well spent. The ride from the terminal to Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel was calm and comfortable, and I could just settle in.
Mi esposa y yo terminamos un crucero buenísimo y lo cerramos con un auto privado listo en la acera para llevarnos a Bonita Bay Trianon Hotel — sin líos en el puerto. Había un cartel con nuestro nombre en la salida, así que ubicamos al conductor sin dar vueltas.
