From $380 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Residence Inn Fort Myers Sanibel in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full journey one way. Select by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
The driver is outside the PortMiami terminal when you come through, plans around the ship’s real arrival time, and loads the bags. The curbside greeting is covered by the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal is offered for $40. Then it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Residence Inn Fort Myers Sanibel sits at 20371 Summerlin Road in Fort Myers, zip code 33908, along the length of Florida’s Gulf shore known as the Naples–Fort Myers coast. It stands on the mainland side of the region, on the road that carries travelers toward the barrier islands, so the address puts you close to the water while keeping you on the peaceful, low-key edge of Fort Myers rather than in the middle of it.
What you locate on arrival is a straightforward, welcoming base for a stretch of days on the coast. Because the property serves its own entrance, your ride ends at the door on Summerlin Road, not at a corner neighboring or a lot down the street. That matters most after a cruise, when the last thing anyone wants is to drag bags the final block. Here the vehicle pulls up to the property itself, and the journey is genuinely over the moment the doors open.
Everything about the stay itself, from the rooms to the details you plan around, lives on the property’s own official page, and that is where those questions belong. Our part is the road between the ship and this Fort Myers address: getting your group from the terminal to the entrance in one private, direct run. Book the ride and the coast is merely where you wake up, with the drive already handled and the arrival planned around your day rather than squeezed into it.
The journey is a single private run of about 156 miles, following I-595 from the cruise terminal to the door of Residence Inn Fort Myers Sanibel. Plan on roughly 162 to 172 minutes on the road, a little more in rush hour and a little less in quiet stretches. Your driver meets you at the exact terminal your cruise line uses, so there is no wandering the port to locate the vehicle after you clear the hall.
Every bag rides inside your own vehicle, carried from the terminal curb and set down at the entrance on Summerlin Road, and the space stays yours alone from pickup to drop-off. The pickup is staged around your ship’s arrival, so the driver is waiting before you finish disembarking rather than the other way around. You walk out, the vehicle is there, and the coast is the next stop with no transfers and no shared stops along the way.
