From $385 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Brandy’s Reel Em Inn 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.
Book with the ship’s name and the date, and the driver handles the rest at PortMiami: waiting at the correct terminal, helping with the suitcases, and leaving the port without a queue. The curbside greeting costs nothing extra; the Meet & Greet at the terminal with a name sign adds $40.
Brandy’s Reel Em Inn puts you in Cape Coral, a Gulf-side city on Florida’s southwest coast. What sets this place apart is water. No other city on earth is threaded by as many canal miles, and that shapes everything — a boater’s grid laid out for direct Gulf access, waterfront parks along the way, and short runs out to neighboring islands. Stepping off a cruise and arriving here means trading the terminal crowd for a quieter, water-lined corner of the state, with the stay itself set right in the middle of that layout.
The surrounding area gives you ample to fill a few days. Sun Splash Waterpark is within simple reach for a family afternoon, and the canals invite an unhurried paddle or a chartered boat out toward the Gulf. If you would rather stay on land, Fourmile Cove Ecological Preserve and Rotary Park are both close by, each with walking paths and a slower look at the coastal landscape that defines this part of Cape Coral.
Because Cape Coral lies well across the state from the cruise terminals, Brandy’s Reel Em Inn is a place you settle into rather than pass through. The chauffeur brings you straight to the entrance, so your first steps off the road land at the door instead of a far-off lot. From here the boating grid, the green space, and the Gulf all sit inside the same simple radius, and getting comfortable takes only as long as carrying your bags inside.
This is a door-to-door private transfer that begins at the PortMiami cruise terminal, once your ship has cleared and your group is through the exit. The car is staged for the terminal curb, your chauffeur handles every bag, and everything you brought rides in the vehicle with you — no juggling suitcases on the sidewalk while you wait for a ride to appear.
From the port it is a single run west toward Cape Coral, covering roughly 158.8 miles along I-595, with a typical drive of 169 to 177 minutes depending on traffic and the hour. Tolls and fuel are already folded into the flat rate, and 60 minutes of courtesy wait is included at the terminal, so the pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation rather than a rushed guess. The vehicle stays yours alone, door to door.

We came off the ship ready for a real bed and a private car straight to Brandy’s Reel Em Inn set the tone for the rest of the trip. We were dropped straight at the door of Brandy’s Reel Em Inn, not on a corner with the bags.
