From $385 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Casa Playa Beach Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The prices are flat and quoted per vehicle for the whole one-way ride: no meter, no surge, nothing added at the curb.
Book with the flight number and the driver watches it land. Meet at the arrivals curb, where the greeting is part of the price, or select the Meet & Greet inside the terminal with a name sign for an extra $40. The driver handles the luggage and heads straight out, no other passengers, no stops unless you add them.
Casa Playa Beach Resort sits on Fort Myers Beach, the long barrier community that runs the length of Estero Island on Florida’s Gulf coast. This stretch of shore is known for roughly seven miles of soft Gulf sand, and a stay here often begins just steps from that sand. You unpack, change into something lighter, and walk straight out to the water without needing a car or a plan.
The location puts you within simple reach of the things people come to Fort Myers Beach for. Times Square and the pier sit at the heart of the action, a simple anchor point for a first walk along the shore. Just south, Lovers Key State Park and its quieter beaches and mangroves create a natural day journey, while Matanzas Pass and Bowditch Point Park round out the neighboring spots worth an afternoon. It is the kind of place where the beach, the pier, and a few parks are all close enough to fold into one unhurried stay.
Because Casa Playa Beach Resort is a longer haul from the airport than a city hotel, arriving rested matters more. The idea is simple: step off the plane, find your driver, and let someone else handle the road while you watch the coast obtain closer. By the time you reach the resort, the hard part of the journey is behind you, and you are close enough to the Gulf to drop the bags and head for the sand. That proximity to the water is the whole appeal, and it is what greets you the moment you arrive.
The journey from Miami International Airport to Casa Playa Beach Resort is a single, straightforward leg. Your driver tracks your flight and is waiting as you come out to the arrivals curb, ready to help with the bags so the luggage goes straight into the vehicle. From there it is one run west and north along I-75, about 155 miles to the door. There is no transfer, no second vehicle, and no wondering where the car is when you land.
Plan on roughly 152 to 168 minutes door to door, depending on traffic. Off-peak, I-75 moves quickly; morning and late-afternoon rush push the drive toward the higher end, which is exactly why the pickup is timed to your actual landing rather than a fixed clock. On a haul this length the private vehicle earns its keep — room to stretch out, your own climate control, and a driver who can plan a rest stop along the way if you want one.

Viemos à Flórida de aniversário e dar o pontapé com uma busca privativa foi a escolha certa. Rastrearam o pouso, então mesmo chegando atrasado, o carro já estava lá.
Mi pareja y yo reservamos un traslado privado del Aeropuerto de Miami a Casa Playa Beach Resort para no buscar un taxi después del vuelo. El conductor fue un conductor seguro y tranquilo, todo muy pulcro.
