From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Comfort Suites UCF Area – Research Park in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the curbside greeting included in the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal available for $40 if you want it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
Comfort Suites UCF Area – Research Park sits in Orlando, close to the University of Central Florida and the surrounding Research Park district. It is a hotel built for travelers who want a settled base after a long day on the water — a place to drop the bags, catch a breath, and plan the next move. When your driver pulls up to the main entrance, you step out of the vehicle and straight into a stay that is ready for you.
The hotel side of the trip is handled with the practical things that matter most after a cruise: on-site amenities, luggage holds for the hours before your room opens, and the choice of early check-in when it can be arranged. If your ship docks early and the room is not yet made up, you are not left standing with your bags — the front desk can keep them while you settle in or head back out.
Orlando spreads out around the hotel, and there is plenty within reach once you have unpacked. Downtown Orlando and neighboring Winter Park offer the metro its grown-up side — lakeside parks, museums, and a boutique-lined main street worth an unhurried afternoon. Whether the plan is a quiet evening in or a full day out, the location keeps the city’s calmer corners close, while the Research Park region itself stays quiet enough for real rest between the ship and whatever comes next.
