From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Flamingo Waterpark Resort 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.
The driver is outside the PortMiami terminal when you come through, plans around the ship’s real arrival time, and loads the bags. The curbside greeting is covered by the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal is offered for $40. Then it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Flamingo Waterpark Resort is a family stay in Kissimmee, set along East Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway — the US-192 route that has long served as the value base for visitors heading to the theme parks. The full address is 2261 East Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway, Kissimmee 34744, so a driver can bring you straight to the property without hunting for the entrance.
The location puts you on one of central Florida’s busiest vacation corridors. US-192 threads past vacation homes, the carnival strip at Old Town, and the gator attractions that give this stretch its personality, with the Disney gates only minutes away. It is the kind of base families choose when they want room to spread out and easy access to the parks, rather than paying to stay inside the gates themselves.
Arrive and you are firmly in Kissimmee’s park country. Old Town and the US-192 / Irlo Bronson Highway attractions sit close by, and there is ample within reach when you want a break from the rides — Lake Tohopekaliga for open water and Gatorland for the reptile side of Florida are both neighboring. Whether you are checking in for a park-heavy week or using the resort as a comfortable landing spot before or after a cruise, the setting keeps you near the action while staying a short drive from the quieter corners of the area.
This is a genuine road journey north, and it runs as a single, direct leg. After you clear the terminal on Dodge Island, your chauffeur is already staged at the curb, loads every bag, and points the vehicle onto Florida’s Turnpike toward Kissimmee. There is no shared vehicle and no detour — the car is yours alone, door to door, from the pier to the resort entrance.
Plan on roughly 213.2 miles between Port of Miami and Flamingo Waterpark Resort, about 212 to 222 minutes depending on the hour you travel. Disembarkation mornings pile up speedy at the terminal exits, so the wait is your driver’s rather than yours. Your luggage rides with you the whole way, you keep your own climate and quiet, and the vehicle stops only when you ask for it.

Nuestro grupo de amigos reservó una van directo del puerto a Flamingo Waterpark Resort, y nadie tuvo que preocuparse por nada. El conductor cargó todas nuestras maletas del crucero para que no tuviéramos que batallar con todo.
Bajamos del barco con los pequeños y una montaña de maletas, y una van privada esperando en el puerto hizo el viaje a Flamingo Waterpark Resort un paseo. La sillita para el niño estaba puesta antes de que saliéramos, lo que fue una preocupación menos. La noche anterior recibimos un mensaje con el nombre del conductor y la placa, así que no hubo que adivinar en la acera al salir.
So glad I pre-booked — a smooth, easy handoff, no scramble at the port, door to door.
We got off the ship with the little ones ready for a nap, and a private van waiting at the port made the run to Flamingo Waterpark Resort so easy.
We came off the ship worn out from a great week and a private car straight to Flamingo Waterpark Resort was exactly right. We were dropped right at the front door of Flamingo Waterpark Resort, not down the block.
