From $175 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Avalux Suites in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full journey one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
The driver is outside the PortMiami terminal when you come through, plans around the ship’s real arrival time, and loads the bags. The curbside greeting is covered by the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal is offered for $40. Then it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Avalux Suites puts you down in Boca Raton, the part of South Florida people picture when they picture the polished version: Mizner-style arcades, manicured golf greens, and beach parks a short reach from the door. Staying here means the shoreline is close enough that plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they step off the cruise. It is a genuine change of pace after days at sea, and it is the kind of address you settle into rather than pass through.
The surroundings do a lot of the work. Mizner Park and the Boca Raton Resort sit close by, giving you shops, dining, and that arcade-lined stroll the town is known for. Red Reef Park is nearby for beach and shoreline time, and Florida Atlantic University is also right in Boca Raton if your plans run toward campus events or a longer stay in the area. Everything reads as South Florida at its most manicured, which is exactly why so many cruisers pick this stretch to unwind.
Arrival day here is meant to feel simple. You clear the terminal, obtain your bags to the curb, and take one direct ride straight to Avalux Suites with no shuttle line and no dragging luggage across the port. If you decide to add days around Boca Raton, the beach parks and downtown are all within the same simple radius, so an afternoon plan rarely means a long haul. It is a peaceful, walkable base to land in.
Book the ride before you dock and the rest falls into place. Your private vehicle is staged for your ship’s actual arrival, so the chauffeur is waiting when you clear the terminal rather than the other way around. From the pier it is one run along Florida’s Turnpike, roughly 47.4 miles, ending right at the door of Avalux Suites. There are no added stops and no strangers sharing the vehicle, and your luggage rides with you the whole way.
Plan on about 64 to 80 minutes terminal to door, quiet hours to rush hour, with traffic on the Turnpike the only real variable. That is why the pickup follows your ship’s schedule with room to spare instead of a slot cut to the minute. Your bilingual chauffeur handles the bags at both ends, and the fare you booked is locked in, so cruise-morning surge never touches it. Clear the port, curbside your bags, and go.
From the Port of Miami, plan on about 1 hour 7 minutes and 47.6 miles to reach Avalux Suites in Boca Raton via Florida’s Turnpike and I-95. Prices are per vehicle, not per seat: $175 for the Black SUV, $300 for the Van, $375 for the Van XL. Pickup is at your cruise terminal curb at PortMiami.

Sem problemas, sem surpresas, sem complicação.
Nuestro grupo bajamos del barco juntos y reservamos una van privada del puerto a Avalux Suites. El van estaba limpio, fresco y cómodo, con lugar para todo.
El grupo entero bajamos juntos y fue muy fácil tener una van privada esperando en la terminal para el viaje a Avalux Suites — sin dividirnos. Para llegar del barco a Avalux Suites sin estrés, valió mucho la pena. Era un auto privado solo para nosotros — sin recoger a nadie más — un alivio tras una semana a bordo.
We got off the ship with the kids and a mountain of luggage, and a private van there at the terminal made the run to Avalux Suites so easy. There was a sign with our name at the exit, so we knew right where to go.
Meu marido e eu não estávamos a fim de confusão na saída do terminal, então reservamos uma viagem privativa até Avalux Suites antes mesmo de zarpar.
