From $175 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Holiday Inn Boca Raton 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.
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.
The Holiday Inn Boca Raton – North stands at 701 Northwest 53rd Street, on the northern side of Boca Raton, ZIP 33487. That puts you in Palm Beach County, well north of the port and set back from the shoreline in a quiet business-and-residential stretch of the city. When your ride ends, this street address is the exact point the chauffeur is driving toward — lobby entrance, bags out of the vehicle, and you are settled into your stay.
Boca Raton rewards anyone who lingers. Mizner Park anchors the town with its boutiques and open-air walkways, and the landmark pink resort remains the city’s most recognized silhouette along the coast. Families tend to create for Gumbo Limbo Nature Center, where the sea-turtle tanks are the draw for younger travelers, while Red Reef Park keeps the beach within simple reach. None of it is far once you have a base at the hotel, and guests with an afternoon to spare usually reach first for the Boca Raton Resort and the Mizner Park shops.
Arrival here is meant to feel plain in the top way. You clear the cruise terminal at the Port of Miami, your bags come to the curb, and one direct ride carries you north to the hotel door — no second leg to arrange, no map to read. The chauffeur handles every bag from the vehicle to the lobby, so the last stretch of your journey is merely walking inside. For the hotel side of things — amenities, luggage holds, early check-in — the official Holiday Inn Boca Raton – North page carries the current details.
The route is a single run up Interstate 95. From the pier you clear the terminal, load into your own vehicle, and head north with no transfers and no shared stops along the way. Your bags ride with you the whole distance, and the chauffeur plans the timing around your ship’s actual disembarkation rather than a fixed clock, so a slow morning off the boat does not cost you the ride.
Plan on roughly an hour to an hour and a half door to door, lighter or heavier depending on the day’s I-95 traffic. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest window, so the pickup is set to when you actually walk off the ship. Your driver meets your group at the curb of your ship’s own terminal, organized by message as you step out of the hall.
