From $160 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to La Quinta Inn & Suites Sunrise 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.
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 want it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
La Quinta Inn & Suites Sunrise is a straightforward hotel stay set in the inland reaches of North Broward, roughly 32 road miles from the Port of Miami cruise terminals. Sunrise is a suburban, green corner of South Florida, quieter than the coast and built around broad roads, shopping, and parkland rather than beachfront. After a cruise, it works as a peaceful place to land for a night or two before flying out or heading home.
The region around the hotel gives you plenty of reasons to stay put. Sawgrass Mills, one of the region’s largest outlet complexes, anchors the neighborhood, and Amerant Bank Arena — home ice for the Florida Panthers — sits within easy reach for a game or a concert. History and open space are close by too: the Plantation Historical Museum, the trails of Tradewinds Park, and Everglades Holiday Park on the edge of the wetlands are all part of the North Broward map surrounding your stay.
When you reach, you are firmly in suburban Broward — Plantation, Sunrise, and Coral Springs form a low-rise, easy-to-navigate cluster of neighborhoods with the outlets and the arena as the main landmarks. For the specifics of your room, parking, and check-in, the property itself is the place to confirm those details. What we handle is getting you there directly from the ship, so the first thing you do off the cruise is settle in rather than sort out a ride.
The trip from the cruise terminal to La Quinta Inn & Suites Sunrise runs about 32 miles and takes roughly 48 to 64 minutes, depending on the hour and the traffic. Your chauffeur takes Florida’s Turnpike and I-95, so the run inland to Sunrise is a single, direct leg — no transfers and no detours to collect other passengers.
Pickup happens right at your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island. Your driver is staged before you clear the arrivals hall, so the waiting is theirs, not yours. Bags go straight from the terminal curb into the vehicle, and the same assist meets you at the hotel door. Book the reverse leg for embarkation day at the same flat rate and the pickup is timed around your ship.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
