From $385 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Best Western Plus Beach Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
The pickup follows the flight, not the schedule you booked weeks ago, so an early landing or a late one changes only the meeting time. You are met at MIA arrivals with the greeting included in the fare, and the Meet & Greet inside the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40 more. From there it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Best Western Plus Beach Resort sits on Estero Island, the barrier island that forms Fort Myers Beach on Florida’s Gulf coast. This is a beach hotel with the sand close at hand, set along a shore known for around seven miles of soft Gulf-front beach. It is a genuine coastal address, the kind of place people book when the whole point of the journey is to wake up near the water and walk out into the salt air.
Step outside and the island is right there to explore. Times Square, the lively pedestrian hub at the pier, is within simple reach, along with the pier itself. Just south, the mangroves of Lovers Key wind through quiet water, while Matanzas Pass and Bowditch Point Park sit close by for anyone who wants a slower afternoon among the trees and tidal flats. Estero Island packs a lot of Gulf-coast character into a compact stretch of land.
What you locate on arrival is a beach-town rhythm rather than a large-city one. The resort keeps you near the sand, the pier, and the small local pleasures of Fort Myers Beach, so most of what you will desire is a short journey away once you are settled. Because it is a long drive out from the airport, arriving relaxed matters, and having your ride waiting means you can head straight to check-in and start the stay. We handle only the journey there and back; the hotel itself takes care of your room and the rest of your visit.
The ride is a single door-to-door leg from Miami International Airport out to Best Western Plus Beach Resort, run mostly along I-75 across the state to the Gulf coast. Your driver is waiting when you land, meets you in the terminal region, helps with the bags, and walks you to the vehicle, so there is no line to stand in and no app to open after a long flight. Luggage goes in with you, and the car is reserved for your group alone from curb to door.
Plan on roughly 154.9 miles and about 153 to 167 minutes on the road, depending on traffic. Because the pickup is timed to your actual landing rather than a fixed slot, a delayed flight merely moves the whole schedule with it. On a haul this long the private vehicle earns its keep, with room to stretch, your own climate control, and a driver who can plan a rest stop along the way if you desire one.
