From $140 per vehicle: private one-way ride, Port of Miami to Holiday Inn Express & Suites Fort Lauderdale North – Executive Airport.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
Tell us the ship and the driver times the pickup to its arrival, then waits at your terminal’s curb at PortMiami. The curbside greeting there is included in the fare; the Meet & Greet at the terminal is a $40 add-on. From the port the ride is direct, with no other passengers.
The Holiday Inn Express & Suites Fort Lauderdale North – Executive Airport is a comfortable, straightforward stay set at 1500 W Commercial Blvd, just south of Fort Lauderdale’s Executive Airport. Its position off Commercial Boulevard makes it a simple landing spot after a cruise, close to the interstate and to the pockets of Broward County that most guests come to see. The name tells you the neighborhood: quiet, practical, and within swift reach of the coast.
What surrounds it is a mix of things to do. Gulfstream Park and Dania Pointe are both within simple reach, pairing dining and shopping with a lively evening scene. The Dania Beach Fishing Pier and the Design Center of the Americas (DCOTA) are neighboring as well, and the shoreline itself is close enough that plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they step off the vessel. Casinos and peaceful state-park beaches round out the region for anyone with hours to fill before a flight or a drive home.
Our part is the ride, not the stay. Anything about the room, the front desk, or the property’s own services lives with the hotel directly, and we keep our focus on getting you and your luggage there in one clean run. When your car pulls up to the door at 1500 W Commercial Blvd, the cruise crowds and the terminal noise are already behind you, and the rest of your Fort Lauderdale time is yours to spend however you like.
This is a private, door-to-door transfer that begins the moment you clear disembarkation at the Port of Miami. Your chauffeur meets you at the exact terminal your cruise line uses, takes the bags, and loads them into the vehicle so nothing sits on the sidewalk while you sort out a ride. From there it is one direct run north along I-95, your group alone in the car, ending at the door of the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Fort Lauderdale North – Executive Airport at 1500 W Commercial Blvd.
Plan on roughly 41 to 58 minutes between the pier and the hotel, depending on the hour and the weekend port rush. The pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation rather than an app’s availability, and the I-95 traffic is already built into the plan. Fuel, typical tolls, and luggage assist at both ends ride inside the flat fare, so the price you booked is the price you pay when you reach.
