From $285 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Jupiter in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way journey, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, the Meet & Greet at the terminal adds $40, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Jupiter sits in Jupiter, the peaceful northern edge of the Palm Beaches — a town known for a slower pace than the busier resort cities to the south. Checking in here keeps you close to the coast, with the Atlantic and Jupiter’s beaches only a short move away. The inn makes a natural landing spot after a cruise: a place to set down your bags, reset, and decide what comes next.
The area’s signature landmark is the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse, the red tower that has stood over the inlet since 1860. Guests frequently pair a look at the lighthouse with time on Jupiter Beach once they have settled in. Baseball fans have Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium close by, home to spring-training games, and the Gardens Mall is within reach for shopping and a meal.
Because Jupiter runs right along the water, one of the easiest afternoons you can plan is to drop your luggage at La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Jupiter and walk toward the shoreline. The setting suits travelers who desire the beach without the crowds — low-key sand, the lighthouse over the inlet, and a hotel that keeps all of it within simple distance. We reach every address in Jupiter, so the ride ends at the inn’s own door with your bags carried in for you.
Once you clear your ship’s terminal on Dodge Island, your chauffeur is organized by message and meets your group right at the curb, not somewhere out in a parking lot. The bags go straight into the vehicle, and the drive north follows Florida’s Turnpike as one direct leg — about 88 miles up to Jupiter. The car is reserved for your party alone, door to door.
Plan on roughly 107 to 121 minutes depending on the hour, since Turnpike traffic is the main thing that shifts the timing. That is why the pickup is built around your ship’s actual arrival, with courtesy wait time included, rather than a slot cut to the minute. When you reach La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Jupiter, the chauffeur helps carry every bag from the curb into the lobby.
