From $430 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Marina Inn Hotel At Burnt Store Marina Resort 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.
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.
Marina Inn Hotel At Burnt Store Marina Resort sits within a marina community on Florida’s southwest coast, close to Punta Gorda. As the name says, this is a place built around the water: the inn is where you settle in, and the marina is the reason it exists. After a week at sea, arriving somewhere still shaped by boats and open water feels less like a jolt and more like trading one vessel for another.
The setting is unhurried, a deliberate contrast to the pace of a cruise-morning terminal. The resort keeps its marina at the center rather than tucked out of sight, so the walk from your room to the water is short and the view leans toward moored boats and quiet channels. For travelers coming straight off a ship, that calm is the point — a spot to unpack, breathe, and let the journey slow down on your own terms.
On arrival, your chauffeur brings you to the door rather than to a lot down the road, and your luggage comes out of the vehicle with you. Because the ride is private and yours alone, you decide when you leave the port and how the drive unfolds, so you reach Marina Inn Hotel At Burnt Store Marina Resort ready to check in rather than worn out from the road. It is the kind of ending a long cruise day earns: a marina, a room near the water, and no scramble to obtain there.
This is a door-to-door run in a private vehicle assigned to your group and no one else. Your chauffeur is staged at your ship’s own terminal, organized by message as you clear the hall, and meets you at the curb rather than in a distant parking lot. Bags go straight into the vehicle with help at both ends, and from there it is a single stretch of road from the pier to the entrance of Marina Inn Hotel At Burnt Store Marina Resort, with tolls and fuel already inside the flat fare.
Plan on roughly three hours across about 180 miles, give or take depending on the hour you set out. Disembarkation mornings pile up fast at the terminal exits, but because your driver is already waiting, the wait is theirs and not yours. You set the departure time and the pace, and the drive carries you the rest of the way without transfers or shared stops.
