From $625 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Home2 Suites by Hilton Clermont 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.
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.
Home2 Suites by Hilton Clermont is an all-suite hotel that sits in Clermont, an inland town in Central Florida, well north of the coast and the cruise port. It is built for travelers who desire room to spread out — suite-style accommodations with space for a family or a small group coming off a long sailing. After a week at sea, arriving somewhere with a little breathing room makes the drive worth it.
Because this is a Hilton property, the practical details you care about on arrival — the full amenity list, luggage holds for early arrivals, and early check-in when it can be arranged — are kept current on the hotel’s own official page, so it is worth a look before your date. If your ship docks in the morning and your room is not ready yet, staff can commonly hold your bags while you settle in, so you are not tied to the lobby with a cart of cruise luggage.
Clermont sits away from the beach crowds, which is part of the appeal: it is a calmer, greener corner of Central Florida, a simple home base for the region’s better-known attractions without putting you in the middle of them. For a group arriving straight from PortMiami, it means the last stretch of the day ends somewhere quiet. Offer us the hotel as your drop-off and we take you door to door, so the only thing left to do on arrival is check in.
The ride from PortMiami to Home2 Suites by Hilton Clermont covers roughly 246.5 miles and commonly takes between 245 and 254 minutes, running north on Florida’s Turnpike. It is one long, direct leg — your chauffeur meets you curbside at the terminal after you disembark, loads the luggage, and drives straight through to the hotel with no shared stops along the way.
Traffic on the Turnpike is the main thing that moves the clock, which is why the pickup is timed to your ship’s actual arrival rather than a fixed slot, with room to spare. Your bags stay in the vehicle the whole way, the driver handles them at both ends, and the vehicle is yours alone — you set the pace and the pauses on a drive this long.

Reservamos una sola van para la comitiva entera de la terminal a Home2 Suites by Hilton Clermont para que hiciéramos el check-in todos juntos. Teníamos todo el plan antes de que el barco atracara, así que no había que adivinar nada en el puerto. Había un cartel con nuestro nombre junto a las puertas de la terminal, así que ubicamos al conductor al instante. ¡Gracias por el traspaso tan tranquilo!
