From $380 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hampton Inn & Suites Fort Myers – Colonial Blvd 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.
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.
The Hampton Inn & Suites Fort Myers – Colonial Blvd sits along Colonial Boulevard in Fort Myers, on Florida’s southwest Gulf coast. It keeps you inside the city rather than out on its far edges, which makes it an easy base for a stay stitched onto either end of a cruise. After a long day of journey by sea and by road, it is the kind of address that is simple to reach and simple to settle into for a night or two.
Fort Myers grew up around Thomas Edison’s winter estate on the Caloosahatchee River, and that history still shapes the place. The Edison & Ford Winter Estates remain one of the area’s defining stops, an easy outing from the hotel. Downtown, the River District supplies the coast’s liveliest streets, with restaurants, shops, and open river views gathered close together. The Caloosahatchee itself runs neighboring, and Hammond Stadium sits within reach for anyone timing a visit around a game.
That mix is what makes the Colonial Boulevard location work for a post-cruise night or two. You can offer a slow morning to the winter estates, wander the River District after dark, or merely rest before the next leg of the journey. Whatever the stay itself holds, the hotel’s own team looks after that part — our work is the ride between your ship at the port and this front door, with your group and your luggage carried the whole way there.
From the moment your ship clears the terminal on Dodge Island, the plan is straightforward. Your chauffeur is already staged for your arrival, so the group walks out to the vehicle rather than into a line. Bags go in with you, everyone rides together, and the car is yours alone for the run north. The route follows I-595 for the roughly 153.7-mile journey, and the driver takes it door to door, finishing at the hotel entrance on Colonial Boulevard.
Plan on somewhere between 152 and 163 minutes, depending on the hour you sail in and how the roads are moving. Disembarkation mornings back up speedy at the port exits, but that wait belongs to your driver, not to you. When the ride ends, assist with every bag comes with it, from the vehicle to the curb.
