From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Pompano Beach to Loews Portofino Bay Hotel 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.
Offer us the pickup address in Pompano Beach and a time, and the driver is there ahead of it. Bags go straight into the SUV or van, and the journey runs door to door to the resort, with a planned stop possible if you add it when you book. The 15-minute courtesy wait at the pickup is part of the fare.
Loews Portofino Bay Hotel is a deluxe on-site resort at Universal Orlando, styled after an Italian seaside village. You reach to harbor-view piazzas, pools, and full-service dining, with the look and feel of a coastal town set right inside the parks. Staying on-site puts your group close to the theme parks and the surrounding entertainment district, along with the resort perks that come from being inside the Universal world.
The hotel is built for groups of every size. Families spread out across roomy accommodations, friends gather by the water, and everyone sits steps from the action once the parks open. It reads as a full resort rather than a place to simply sleep, with room to slow down between park days and ample to do without leaving the grounds.
The property belongs to the Universal Orlando resort area, an enclave of theme parks, restaurants, and nightlife built around visitors. Everything nearby is aimed at guests on a parks journey, with walkable access and resort transportation linking the attractions — think a destination district rather than a quiet suburb. Your private ride finishes right at the resort door, so after the drive north the only thing your group handles is checking in, with no parking to locate and no bags to drag across a lot.
Your chauffeur meets the group at the agreed Pompano Beach address — a hotel, a home, or any street address you name — at the time you set. The bags go into the vehicle, everyone climbs aboard, and the same driver in the same vehicle carries you all the way north with no transfers and no waiting at a curb. The route runs steady highway by way of Florida’s Turnpike to I-4, straight to the resort entrance.
Figure on roughly 3.2 to 3.3 hours across about 199.7 miles, from quieter stretches through busier ones. Morning departures tend to land near the shorter end, while weekend getaways and big park days push toward the longer one. Mention a check-in window or a dinner reservation at booking and the pickup gets set with comfortable margin. The fare is fixed, so heavier traffic never changes what you pay.
The fare is paid in full at booking. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
