From $155 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Ebb Tide Resort Oceanfront in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way journey, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
Tell us the ship and the driver times the pickup to its arrival, then waits at your terminal’s curb at PortMiami. The curbside greeting there is included in the fare; the Meet & Greet at the terminal is a $40 add-on. From the port the ride is direct, with no other passengers.
Ebb Tide Resort Oceanfront is a beachfront property along the Pompano & Deerfield Beach coast, the low-key stretch that sits north of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. This is the quieter end of the shoreline, where Pompano keeps its old fishing-village character and Deerfield holds onto its Blue Wave beach. Staying here puts the sand within a short walk of your door, so the ocean is part of the plan rather than a drive away.
Because the resort faces the water directly, plenty of arriving guests simply trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they step off the cruise. After days at sea, having the beach a few steps from the room makes for an easy first evening — no rush, no long transfer once you have checked in. For anything about the rooms themselves, parking, or check-in timing, the property’s own official page is the dependable source, since those details belong to Ebb Tide Resort Oceanfront and can change.
The surrounding region gives you plenty to fill the days on either side of the cruise. The Pompano Beach Fishing Pier and the Deerfield Beach Pier are both close by, and the Pompano Beach Amphitheater is nearby for an evening out. If you want green space instead of shoreline, Quiet Waters Park sits within the same Pompano & Deerfield Beach region. It is a stretch of coast that rewards travelers who like their beach town calm and walkable, with the water always in easy reach and the pace set a notch slower than the city to the south.
The journey is a single door-to-door leg from your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island out to Ebb Tide Resort Oceanfront — about 37.6 miles up I-95, and roughly 61 to 76 minutes depending on how heavy the traffic runs that day. Your chauffeur is coordinated by message as you clear the terminal hall and meets your group right at the curb, so there is no wandering the lot looking for a car. The bags go straight into the vehicle at the terminal, and from there it is one direct run north with no changes and no extra stops.
Pickup follows your ship’s actual arrival rather than a fixed slot, with built-in wait time so the pace of customs never costs you the ride within that time. The vehicle is yours alone for the whole journey, tolls and fuel already inside the flat fare booked in advance. When you reach the resort, the driver handles the luggage again, and you step out at the door with the beach a short walk away.
