From $165 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hyatt Place Fort Lauderdale Plantation 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.
Hyatt Place Fort Lauderdale Plantation sits in the western reach of Broward County, in the city of Plantation. It makes a relaxing base for travelers who desire to be close to the shopping and the open parks of the region rather than in the middle of downtown. Around the hotel, the neighboring communities of Sunrise, Plantation, and Coral Springs form a peaceful residential grid, so the streets stay quiet even when the retail corridors fill up.
The big draw out this way is Sawgrass Mills, the sprawling outlet destination that pulls shoppers from across the region. Beyond the stores, the surroundings hold ample for a slower day. The Plantation Historical Museum is within simple reach of the hotel, and the green space of Tradewinds Park along with the paddling and airboat country of Everglades Holiday Park are both close by in North Broward. It is a corner of the metro where suburban ease meets the edge of the wetlands.
Arriving after a cruise, you locate a spot built for exactly this kind of stop — a place to set down your luggage, catch your breath, and pick up the pace on your own terms. Whether the plan is a shopping run, a park morning, or simply a simple night before the next leg, the hotel puts you in the middle of west Broward’s options. Details on the property itself — amenities, luggage storage, and early check-in options — live on Hyatt Place Fort Lauderdale Plantation’s official page, so you can line up the stay before you ever step off the ship.
The trip runs as one direct leg from the cruise terminal to the hotel door. Once your group clears the exit hall, the chauffeur is already staged at the terminal curb, loads the bags, and pulls out toward Florida’s Turnpike and I-95. From the Port of Miami, the drive to Hyatt Place Fort Lauderdale Plantation covers about 28.5 miles and takes roughly 46 to 63 minutes, depending on the hour and the traffic.
Disembarkation mornings back up rapidly at the exits, so the pickup is timed to your ship’s arrival with a built-in 60-minute courtesy wait — the waiting is the driver’s, not yours. Your luggage rides in the vehicle with you, the car is reserved for your group alone, and the chauffeur handles the bags at both ends. You step out of the terminal, the car is waiting, and the hotel is the only stop from there.
