From $600 per vehicle: private one-way ride, Port of Miami to Clarion Inn & Suites Across From Universal Orlando Resort.
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.
The Clarion Inn & Suites Across From Universal Orlando Resort sits on International Drive, the long, hotel-lined boulevard that runs through the heart of Orlando’s visitor district. Its name says where it lands you: directly opposite Universal Orlando Resort, so the parks you traveled for are the first thing you see when you look across the road.
International Drive is less a street than a corridor of things to do. Along its stretch you will locate ICON Park and its tall observation wheel, the Orange County Convention Center, and the Orlando International Premium Outlets, strung together on one continuous boulevard of hotels, restaurants, and open-air attractions. Staying here puts the district’s biggest draws in the same neighborhood rather than a long haul away.
After a cruise and a long ride north, arriving at the Clarion Inn & Suites drops you exactly where the action is. Guests here frequently fold Universal Orlando Resort and ICON Park into the same journey once they have settled in, with the convention center and the outlet shopping close enough to fit around a park day. Our chauffeur brings you to the lobby door, so the step from the vehicle to your room is short and simple. Anything about the stay itself lives with the hotel; getting you there, bags and all, is our part.
The ride begins the moment you clear the terminal at the Port of Miami. Your chauffeur is staged at the curb, timed to your ship’s arrival, and loads every bag before you settle in. From there it is a single direct leg north along Florida’s Turnpike, roughly 232 miles to the door of the Clarion Inn & Suites, run at a flat rate for the whole vehicle.
Count on about 225 to 235 minutes from terminal curb to hotel door, with traffic on the Turnpike as the only real variable. That is why the pickup follows your ship’s actual disembarkation rather than a fixed clock, leaving room for the customs line. The luggage rides with you, the vehicle is yours alone, and stops happen only when you ask for them.
