From $140 per vehicle: private one-way ride, Port of Miami to Best Western Plus Fort Lauderdale Airport South Inn & Suites.
The prices are flat and quoted per vehicle for the whole one-way ride: no meter, no surge, nothing added at the curb.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, the Meet & Greet at the terminal adds $40, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Best Western Plus Fort Lauderdale Airport South Inn & Suites sits just south of Fort Lauderdale’s airport, in the twin communities of Hallandale and Dania Beach. It is an easy landing spot after a cruise, close to the airport for anyone with a flight the next morning, yet placed where the shoreline is only steps away. Plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they come ashore.
The neighborhood around the hotel blends a few distinct moods. There are casinos and racing at Gulfstream Park, the fishing pier out at Dania Beach, and quieter stretches of protected coast at Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park. Design-minded travelers can wander the showrooms at the Design Center of the Americas, known as DCOTA, a short outing from the hotel. It is the kind of region where a lively night out and a peaceful morning by the water are both within reach.
On arrival, the hotel side of the stay is handled directly by the property. Amenities, luggage holds, and early check-in are all arranged through Best Western, which helps when a ship lets out well before a room is ready. You can leave your bags, step out to the beach or the pier, and settle in once your room opens. With the airport, the casinos, and the coast all close together, the location works whether your plans call for one more day of sun or a swift turnaround to a flight home.
The journey is planned around your ship rather than around whatever is available at the curb. Once you clear disembarkation, your driver meets you right at your terminal, not off in a parking lot, and helps load the luggage into the vehicle. The whole group rides together in one private car, so there is no waiting in a taxi line or juggling bags on the sidewalk while you sort out a ride.
From there it is a direct run north to Best Western Plus Fort Lauderdale Airport South Inn & Suites, with the group dropped at the entrance and the bags carried to the curb beside you. Saturday and Sunday mornings are the port’s busiest stretch, when thousands of passengers step off the ships at once, so the pickup is timed to your actual walk-off. Tell us the ship and the arrival date and the vehicle is staged for the morning rush, with the driver organized by message as you exit.
