From $365 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way trip, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
Arrivals at MIA can feel hectic, so the meeting point is simple: the driver, already aware of your landing time from the flight tracking, waits at the arrivals level. The standard curbside greeting costs nothing extra, and the Meet & Greet inside the hall, name sign in hand, is offered for $40. After that, the trip is private and direct.
Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort sits on Fort Myers Beach, the long barrier strip that stretches along Estero Island on Florida’s Gulf coast. Estero Island carries about seven miles of soft, pale sand, and the resort places you right on that shoreline, where the water stays shallow and the beach runs on well past the building. When you step out of the vehicle, that stretch of Gulf sand is the center of everything, steps rather than a drive away.
The heart of Fort Myers Beach gathers at Times Square, the open pedestrian plaza set beside the pier. It is the easy landmark for the island — a short run of shops and open-air tables close to the resort — and the pier itself reaches out over the Gulf, a natural spot to watch the water and the boats come and go through the day. Most of the island’s everyday life sits within a short walk of this corner.
Just south, the mangroves of Lovers Key unfold inside Lovers Key State Park, while Bowditch Point Park anchors the northern tip of the island. Both are within easy reach once you have settled in, and both hand you a quieter, greener side of the coast away from the sand. Between the beach in front of the resort, the plaza at Times Square, and these two parks framing the island, Fort Myers Beach gives you a compact stretch of Gulf shore to settle into.
Your driver is waiting in the terminal as you come off the flight, helps with the bags, and walks you to the vehicle — one booking, one pickup, and the car is yours alone from the curb. From there it is a single leg, your luggage loaded and the route already planned, straight to the door at Outrigger Beach Hotel & Resort.
The run to Fort Myers Beach follows I-75 for most of the way and usually takes 144 to 155 minutes door to door, covering roughly 142 miles. Because the pickup is timed to your actual landing rather than a fixed slot, a delayed flight simply moves the whole pickup, so there is no scramble to find a ride after a long trip. On a longer haul like this one the private vehicle earns its keep — room to stretch out, your own climate control, and a driver who can plan a rest stop along the way if you want one.
