From $240 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Fairfield Inn & Suites Wellington-West Palm Beach 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.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. The curbside greeting at the terminal is included; the Meet & Greet at the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Fairfield Inn & Suites Wellington-West Palm Beach is a hotel set in Wellington, in Palm Beach County, north of the port and inland from the coast. It sits at 10616 Forest Hill Boulevard, Wellington 33414, along one of the area’s main east-west roads, which makes it a simple address for a driver to reach directly and a practical base for the end of a cruise or the start of a few days in the region.
Wellington is a calm, residential part of Palm Beach County, away from the crowds of the cruise terminals and the downtown core. The property gives you a straightforward place to settle after a long day of travel, with your own entrance rather than a curb somewhere down the block. Because the transfer serves the hotel’s own front door, you step out of the vehicle where you actually need to be, not at a corner neighboring.
On arrival, your chauffeur brings the group all the way to the property entrance and carries your bags from the vehicle to the curb beside you. There is no walking your luggage across a lot or hunting for the right building. The hotel’s own side of things — check-in timing, luggage holds, and the amenities on offer — is handled by the property itself once you are through the doors, so your ride simply delivers you, rested and on time, to the address you booked.
The ride begins right at your ship’s terminal on Dodge Island. Once your group clears the hall after disembarkation, the driver meets you at the curb, loads the luggage into the vehicle, and you leave as one party — no shared seats, no waiting on an app. The route runs north along Florida’s Turnpike, covering roughly 70 miles from the Port of Miami up to Wellington.
Plan on about 86 to 102 minutes for the journey, a little longer on hectic weekend mornings when many ships empty out at once. Because the pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation rather than a fixed clock, the driver is already in place when you come out, with the expected Turnpike traffic built into the plan. Your bags stay in the vehicle the whole way and come out at the hotel entrance.
From the Port of Miami, plan on about 1 hour 28 minutes and 67.4 miles to reach Fairfield Inn & Suites Wellington-West Palm Beach via Florida’s Turnpike. Prices are per vehicle, not per seat: $240 for the Black SUV, $400 for the Van, $430 for the Van XL. Pickup is at your cruise terminal curb at PortMiami.
