From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Quality Inn & Suites Eastgate in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
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 desire it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
Quality Inn & Suites Eastgate sits at 4960 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway, right on the busy tourist strip that runs through Kissimmee. That road, US-192, is the address most families use as a base when they come to central Florida for the theme parks, and the hotel plants you squarely in the middle of it. After a long ride up from the coast, it is an easy place to land — a familiar name on a well-traveled highway, close to everything the corridor is built around.
The Eastgate stretch of Kissimmee is the classic value base for the parks. Vacation homes fill the side streets, and Old Town’s carnival-style strip — rides, shops, and gator attractions — sits within minutes. Walt Disney World is a short hop west, which is the whole reason this corridor exists the way it does. If you plan to stay on after your cruise rather than head straight to the parks, US-192 keeps you close to the action.
There is more to Kissimmee than the highway, too. Lake Tohopekaliga and the Kissimmee Lakefront are both nearby, giving you open water and a quieter side of town when the strip gets loud. For the hotel’s own details — room amenities, luggage holds, and early check-in when your ship gets in before the room does — the property’s official page is the place to confirm what fits your journey. We handle the ride; they handle the stay, and you arrive at the lobby door with your bags already out of the vehicle.
The journey from the Port of Miami to Quality Inn & Suites Eastgate is one direct leg — about 228 miles up Florida’s Turnpike, roughly 235 to 259 minutes depending on how the traffic runs that day. Your chauffeur is staged at the terminal before you clear the disembarkation hall, so the waiting is theirs, not yours.
From the curb, the bags go straight into the vehicle — no parking lot, no shuffling between rides. The car is yours alone for the whole run, so it is a single quiet stretch from the pier to the hotel lobby door. Disembarkation mornings pile up speedy at the terminal exits, but with the pickup timed to your ship’s arrival, you step off and go. Fuel and typical tolls are already in the price, so there is nothing to settle on the road.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.

My partner and I walked off the ship at PortMiami and a private car was right there for us to take us to Quality Inn & Suites Eastgate. The fare was locked in at booking, nothing added at the curb. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and license plate, so there was no guessing at the curb on the way out.
Traveling with the kids, we arranged a private van to be waiting at the curb and take everyone over to Quality Inn & Suites Eastgate. The fare was set up front, nothing added at the curb.
