From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Holiday Inn Resort Orlando Suites 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.
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.
Holiday Inn Resort Orlando Suites sits along International Drive, the long, hotel-lined boulevard that runs through the heart of Orlando’s visitor district. It is a suite-style resort, built for families and groups who desire room to spread out after a day on the road or in the parks. The location puts you within simple reach of the city’s main draws while keeping you on a stretch designed around people who are here to discover.
International Drive is the thread that ties the area together. Universal Orlando Resort, SeaWorld Orlando, and the giant observation wheel at ICON Park all sit along or near the same boulevard, and the Orange County Convention Center anchors one end. Guests who come to shop locate the Orlando International Premium Outlets a short hop away. Once you are checked in, much of what brings visitors to Orlando is lined up within a few minutes of the front door.
That mix is what makes the resort a practical home base. Convention attendees can stay close to the exhibit halls, park-goers can split their days between Universal, SeaWorld, and the wider International Drive strip, and shoppers have the outlets within reach. Because the resort trades in suites rather than single rooms, it suits the kind of traveler arriving off a cruise with luggage and a group in tow — space to unpack, regroup, and plan the next leg of an Orlando stay without feeling boxed in.
Your chauffeur is waiting at the terminal your cruise line uses, staged before you clear the disembarkation hall, so the wait belongs to the driver rather than to you. The bags go straight from the terminal curb into the vehicle, and the route runs north on Florida’s Turnpike as a single, direct leg to Holiday Inn Resort Orlando Suites. No shared stops and no detours — just your party in a vehicle reserved for you alone.
Plan on roughly 224 to 250 minutes from terminal to door, depending on whether you are rolling through quiet hours or into rush-hour traffic. Fuel, typical tolls, and hands-on luggage help are already inside the flat rate, so the price you booked is the price you pay when you reach. It is one clean run from the pier to the resort’s front entrance.
