From $350 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Best Western Bonita Springs Hotel & Suites – Closed in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. The curbside greeting at the terminal is included; the Meet & Greet at the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Best Western Bonita Springs Hotel & Suites – Closed is set in Bonita Springs & Estero, the stretch of southwest Florida coast that fills the gap between Naples and Fort Myers. It is a quieter corner of the region, built around beaches and shopping rather than crowds, and the hotel gives you a base close to the water without landing you in the middle of a big-city grid.
Step outside and the coast is the main draw. Bonita Beach and the protected sands of Barefoot Beach Preserve are within simple reach, so an afternoon by the Gulf is a natural way to unwind after days at sea. When you want a change of pace, Miromar Outlets and the shops at Coconut Point cover the retail side, while the Everglades Wonder Gardens gives you a slower, greener stop right in Bonita Springs.
The surrounding region rounds out the stay with more to explore close by. Florida Gulf Coast University’s campus sits neighboring, and the run of preserves and beach parks along this coastline means the outdoors is never far. Because the hotel is on the coast, dropping your bags and walking toward the water is the simple first move on arrival. It is the kind of destination where the day shapes itself around the beach, a shopping run, or a gentle garden visit, and you can lean into whichever suits your group after the cruise.

Every bag goes into the vehicle with you, and the car is yours alone from the pier to the hotel door.
Plan on roughly 129 to 142 minutes for the drive, depending on the hour and the port’s morning rush. Because it is a genuine cross-state road trip, a private vehicle earns its place here: room to stretch, your own climate, and a direct door-to-door route. Fuel and typical tolls are already built into the fare, so nothing is added along the way.
