From $600 per vehicle: private one-way ride, Port of Miami to Disney-World Orlando Area, USA – Paradise Palms Resort.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami.

Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Paradise Palms Resort sits in Kissimmee, just south of the Disney region, in the stretch of Central Florida where pool-home communities and vacation resorts line the highway. The drop-off address is 7814 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy, along the US-192 corridor that threads through this part of Kissimmee. It is a residential resort community rather than a downtown hotel, which is why having your own vehicle carry you straight to the entrance makes the arrival simple.
The setting is unmistakably Kissimmee. US-192, the Irlo Bronson Highway, runs past a long ribbon of resorts, and the neighborhood is built around private pool homes rather than a single tower. Old Town Kissimmee sits within simple reach for an evening out, and the wider region keeps its Florida character close at hand. Lake Tohopekaliga, known locally as Lake Toho, is nearby, and its airboats are one of the classic ways to see the region’s wetlands up close.
Gatorland is another local landmark not far from the resort, so the surroundings offer more than just a base for theme-park days. Once you clear the port and settle in for the ride north, your chauffeur takes you the whole way and delivers your group and luggage right to the Paradise Palms entrance. Anything about the stay itself is handled by the resort; our part is the door-to-door ride that gets you there. With the address confirmed at booking and the driver following the planned route, you reach without the usual scramble of finding your way through an unfamiliar corner of Kissimmee.
After you disembark at PortMiami, your chauffeur is already staged at the terminal your cruise line uses. You send a message as you clear the exit hall, and the driver meets your group at the curb, loads the luggage, and you leave together. There is no taxi line and no hauling bags across the sidewalk. The route follows Florida’s Turnpike north, covering roughly 235.2 miles from the Port of Miami to Paradise Palms Resort.
Plan on about 239 to 247 minutes for the drive, depending on the hour you set out. Your bags ride in the vehicle the whole way, and the car goes straight to the resort entrance at 7814 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy in Kissimmee. It is one group per vehicle, so the pace, the stops, and the departure time are yours. The flat fare is locked at booking and covers fuel and typical tolls, so the total you agree to is the total you pay.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
