From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Windham Vacation Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way trip, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
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.
Windham Vacation Resort is a stay set at 12191 S Apopka Vineland Rd, along the International Drive corridor in the Orlando area. International Drive runs as one long, hotel-lined boulevard, and the resort sits right on that stretch — an address built for people who want the theme-park side of Central Florida within easy reach rather than a quiet corner far from everything. This is where cruise travelers often base themselves before or after a sailing, trading the ship’s deck for a few days on solid ground.
The location does most of the work. Universal Orlando Resort and ICON Park’s giant observation wheel are close by, and SeaWorld Orlando sits nearby as well, all strung along the same International Drive spine. The Orange County Convention Center is also within reach, so the area draws both families chasing rides and travelers in town for an event. Step out of the resort and the parks, the wheel, and the dining that lines the boulevard are the neighborhood, not a distant drive.
Because everything clusters along one road, getting oriented is simple once you arrive. The resort’s address is fixed and easy to route to, which matters when you are coming straight off a ship with luggage in tow and want the day to end at a door rather than a parking lot. Whatever you have planned — a park morning, a convention, or just a pool afternoon before flying home — Windham Vacation Resort puts you in the middle of the International Drive action, with the rest of the Orlando area an easy hop from the entrance.
The ride is one straight run from your ship to the resort. After you disembark at the Port of Miami, your chauffeur meets your group at the terminal curb, loads the bags into the vehicle, and heads north — no shared stops, no detours. Because ships rarely release everyone at the same minute, the pickup is planned around your ship’s actual arrival, with a courtesy wait that covers customs and the luggage hall, so the vehicle is there when you walk out.
From the port to Windham Vacation Resort the driver follows Florida’s Turnpike for roughly 228.6 miles, a trip that generally runs about 230 to 239 minutes depending on how the Turnpike is moving. Traffic is the only real variable, which is why the pickup leaves room rather than a slot cut to the minute. Your party has the vehicle to itself the whole way, luggage stowed, the climate set how you like it, and the group is dropped at the resort entrance.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Send any change to the party or extras at least 12 hours before the pickup. The booked date is final.
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.
My husband and I wanted a clean handoff outside the terminal, so we reserved a private ride to Windham Vacation Resort before we even sailed. Booking was simple, we got a solid confirmation, and everything lined up perfectly.
Private, punctual, and we didn’t have to think about a thing between the ship and Windham Vacation Resort.
For an easy disembarkation, my wife and I had a private driver meet us at the cruise terminal to run us over to Windham Vacation Resort. No scramble at the port — we just stepped out and the car was ready. An easy, relaxed handoff for the two of us — off the ship and into Windham Vacation Resort with nothing left to sort out.
No íbamos a hacer malabares con niños y maletas buscando transporte en el puerto, así que reservamos una van privada a Windham Vacation Resort.
Todos nosotros bajamos de una y fue un alivio tener una van privada lista en la acera para el viaje a Windham Vacation Resort — sin dividirnos. El viaje de la terminal a Windham Vacation Resort fue tranquilo y parejo, y pudimos relajarnos tras el crucero.
