From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Gold Crown Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full trip one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, the Meet & Greet at the terminal adds $40, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Gold Crown Resort sits well up the peninsula from the coast, in the Kissimmee area south of the Disney parks and about 230 miles by road from Port of Miami. It is a long haul from the cruise terminal, so the address lands you deep in central Florida rather than anywhere near the water you just sailed on. For a group stepping off a ship with a week of luggage, that distance is the whole reason to have one vehicle carry you straight through instead of piecing the trip together.
The resort belongs to the stretch of country that runs along the Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway, the corridor that lines Kissimmee with resorts and pool-home communities. It is a part of Florida built for visitors who want a base near the parks without staying on top of them, and Gold Crown Resort fits squarely into that pattern of family-scaled lodging spread out along the highway.
Nearby, Lake Toho gives the area its own draw beyond the theme parks, with airboats working the water for travelers who want a wilder afternoon. When your group rolls in off the Turnpike, that is the setting waiting at the door: the flat, resort-dotted country south of Disney, quieter than the coast, with the parks and the lake both within easy reach. The driver brings you to the resort entrance and helps with the bags, so the arrival is calm after a long day of travel.
This is a long, single leg. Your chauffeur is staged at your ship’s own terminal before your group clears the exit hall, so on a busy disembarkation morning the waiting is theirs rather than yours. The bags go in at the terminal curb, and the car pulls out on Florida’s Turnpike for the drive north and west toward Kissimmee. Everything you carried off the ship stays in the vehicle with you the whole way, from the port to the resort door.
Plan on roughly 230 miles and somewhere between 228 and 238 minutes on the road, light traffic to heavy. It runs as one direct trip, no changes and no shared stops, with the chauffeur setting the pace to your group. At the far end the car pulls up at the resort entrance and the driver unloads the luggage, so after a long day at sea and a long day on the highway, the last stretch is handled for you.

With kids in tow, arranging a private car from the port to Gold Crown Resort meant no stress on disembarkation morning. We were dropped right at the front door of Gold Crown Resort, not down the block. Getting to Gold Crown Resort with no detours meant we could drop the bags and start the day.
Nuestro grupo de amigos reservó una van directo de la terminal a Gold Crown Resort, y nadie tuvo que preocuparse por nada. Llegar a Gold Crown Resort directo desde la terminal significó que pudimos hacer el check-in y por fin darnos una ducha tras la semana en el mar. La noche anterior recibimos un texto con el nombre del conductor y la placa, así que no había duda de cuál era el auto al salir.
Privativo, pontual e sem complicação — bem mais fácil que brigar por um transporte na saída do terminal. A tarifa estava fechada na reserva, sem nada a mais no meio-fio.
For a stress-free morning off the ship, my partner and I had a private driver waiting for us at the cruise terminal to run us over to Gold Crown Resort. Booking was easy, we got clear pickup details, and everything matched what we were told.
As a solo cruiser I pre-booked a private transfer from the port to Gold Crown Resort for disembarkation morning, and it could not have been easier. The last thing you want after a week at sea is a ride that falls through, and this was there exactly when I needed it. I’ve already saved them for my next cruise out of PortMiami.
