From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Gasparilla Inn & #46 #47 & #59 in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
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.
The Gasparilla Inn & #46 #47 & #59 is set in Boca Grande, a quiet coastal spot roughly 214.4 miles up from PortMiami. It is a destination worth the drive on its own — the kind of place travelers plan a journey around rather than pass through. Your ride ends at the property’s own entrance, not a corner neighboring or a lot down the street, so the last few steps of the journey are as simple as the rest.
Boca Grande keeps a slower pace than the city you leave behind at the port, and arriving by private car matches that mood. There is no shuttle line to join and no luggage to drag across a terminal or a parking structure. Your chauffeur pulls up to the door, unloads every bag, and hands the journey off to you at the threshold of the Gasparilla Inn & #46 #47 & #59. For a group coming straight off a ship, that direct door-to-door finish is the easiest way to land.
Because the vehicle is reserved for your party alone, the run is timed to your arrival and shaped around your group rather than a fixed route with other stops. Whether you are five in an SUV or a full party of fourteen in a van, everyone rides together and steps out together at the same entrance. After a long stretch on the road, walking up to the door with your bags already in hand — and the address handled from the port all the way to Boca Grande — is exactly the kind of clean arrival a coastal getaway calls for.
This is one direct run from the terminal to the door. After you disembark at PortMiami and clear the exit, your chauffeur is already staged at the curb — the wait is theirs, not yours. Bags go into the vehicle, everyone climbs aboard, and the car heads out along I-595 for the roughly 214.4-mile journey. Depending on traffic, the drive typically takes about 220 to 226 minutes, and the vehicle stays yours for the whole route.
There is no transfer to create and no second pickup to arrange — one location, one group, one ride. Fuel, typical tolls, and full luggage assist are built into the flat fare, so nothing gets tallied along the way. When you reach Boca Grande, the driver pulls up to the entrance of the Gasparilla Inn & #46 #47 & #59, unloads your luggage, and the journey is done at the door.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
