From $140 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hyatt Centric Las Olas Fort Lauderdale in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the curbside greeting included in the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal available for $40 if you desire it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
Hyatt Centric Las Olas Fort Lauderdale places you in the heart of Fort Lauderdale, a coastal city that gathers a long promenade beach, a yacht-lined New River, and the gallery-dotted length of Las Olas Boulevard into one compact stretch. The hotel shares its name with that boulevard, so the walkable core of shops, restaurants, and art spaces the city is known for opens up right around your stay.
Step outside and the city arranges itself for simple exploring. Las Olas Boulevard runs its line of galleries close at hand, the New River carries its parade of yachts through the middle of town, and the broad promenade of Fort Lauderdale Beach traces the Atlantic a short way off. The Riverwalk threads the riverbank on foot, linking the water to the shops and giving you a natural loop to wander once the bags are set down.
What you locate on arrival is a base that works for whatever comes next. With Fort Lauderdale sitting right on the coast, a beach afternoon after a cruise is the natural move — drop your things at the hotel and walk toward the water. Hugh Taylor Birch State Park sits neighboring for a greener hour, and the cruise piers of Port Everglades lie at the city’s southern edge, so a stay here keeps you close to the sea from every direction. Anything about the stay itself belongs to the hotel’s own team; getting you here from the ship is the part we handle, door to lobby.
Book the ride before you dock and stepping off the ship becomes the simple part. Your driver is organized by message as you clear the terminal hall and meets your group at the curb of your ship’s own terminal — not a distant parking lot. Every bag goes into the vehicle at the pier, and from there it is a single, direct leg up I-95 to Hyatt Centric Las Olas Fort Lauderdale, no stops along the way.
The run covers about 28.3 miles and normally takes 47 to 63 minutes, terminal curb to hotel lobby, depending on traffic and the hour. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest, with thousands of passengers walking off at once, so your pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation rather than a fixed clock. The vehicle is reserved for your party alone, and the wait windows built into every booking mean the pace of customs never costs you the ride within that time.
