From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from West Palm 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.
Book with the address in West Palm Beach and the pickup time; the driver confirms the details the day before and is waiting at the door when you come out. Luggage is loaded for you, the whole vehicle is reserved for your group, and the drive north to the resort runs without transfers or extra pickups.
Loews Portofino Bay Hotel sits inside Universal Orlando Resort, and its whole look is borrowed from an Italian seaside village. Harbor-front piazzas anchor the property, with pools and quiet walking paths threaded between the buildings, so the arrival feels less like pulling up to a large-box hotel and more like reaching a small coastal town that happens to be in Orlando.
As one of the resort’s upscale on-site hotels, it places the theme parks, the dining, and the evening entertainment that draw families to this part of Orlando within easy reach. Guests step out of the vehicle already inside the world they came for, rather than facing another leg to obtain there. The setting is built around that closeness, and the hotel keeps the parks near without any extra planning on your end.
The district around the hotel exists for visitors. Park gates, resort restaurants, and nighttime entertainment cluster together in one walkable stretch, which means the choices for a meal or an evening out are gathered rather than scattered across town. Once you and your bags are through the front doors, the resort’s rhythm takes over — a park morning, a slow lunch by the water, an evening among the piazzas. Our part of the journey ends at that entrance; the parks and the resort experiences beyond it are yours to plan as you like, on whatever schedule suits the group you are traveling with.
The ride begins at the West Palm Beach address you offer us — your hotel, your home, or wherever you are staying in South Florida — at the time you set. Your chauffeur is there waiting, loads the bags into the vehicle, and drives the whole way through without a change of car or driver. There is no meeting point to locate and no curb where the journey stops short; the vehicle comes to your door and pulls up to the hotel entrance at the other end.
Most of the run covers about 166.7 miles up Florida’s Turnpike toward I-4, and off-peak it takes close to 2.6 hours door to door. Holiday weekends and park-event traffic can stretch that, but the fare is fixed at booking, so a slower day on the road never changes what you pay. Your luggage rides with you the whole way.
The fare is paid in full at booking. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.

Booked this for myself to get from West Palm Beach up to Loews Portofino Bay Hotel without wrestling with a car, and it was exactly what I needed.
My partner and I were not about to do the Turnpike ourselves, so we arranged a private ride from West Palm Beach straight to Loews Portofino Bay Hotel. We dozed the whole way up from West Palm Beach — worth it compared to a rental and a parking garage. Honestly the most stress-free part of the whole trip — everything just worked.
Our group were in West Palm Beach for a bachelorette weekend and booked one private van up to Loews Portofino Bay Hotel. The driver took care of the luggage so we didn’t have to carry anything down.
