From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona 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.
Book with the ship’s name and the date, and the driver handles the rest at PortMiami: waiting at the correct terminal, helping with the suitcases, and leaving the port without a queue. The curbside greeting costs nothing extra; the Meet & Greet at the terminal with a name sign adds $40.
Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona sits at 6955 Lake Nona Boulevard, Orlando 32827, in the Lake Nona area on the south side of the city. It is an Orlando address through and through, tucked into Central Florida rather than out on the coast, which makes it a calm place to settle after a few days at sea. When your ride pulls in, it comes to the property’s own entrance, not a corner neighboring or a lot down the block.
The building is set up for people who want room to spread out rather than a single cramped night, so it suits families and small groups coming off a cruise with plenty of luggage and no desire to keep repacking. The neighborhood around it is one of Orlando’s newer corners, simple to reach off the main routes and quiet once you are inside. Your chauffeur handles the bags from the vehicle to the lobby, so the last stretch of a long journey day stays simple.
For the hotel side of things, the property’s own official page is the place to confirm the details that change from guest to guest, such as room amenities, whether they can hold your bags, and early check-in when your arrival lands ahead of the standard time. We keep our focus on the road part, getting your whole party from the ship to this door in one clean run, and leave the front-desk questions to the people who staff that lobby every day.
This is a real Florida road journey, and it is exactly where a private vehicle earns its place. The route runs about 226.5 miles from the cruise terminal to the hotel door by way of Florida’s Turnpike, and it normally takes 221 to 233 minutes depending on traffic and the hour you roll out. It is one continuous run, no stops unless you ask for one, with your bags staying in the vehicle the whole way and your own climate zone for the ride north.
Coming off the ship, the car is staged for the terminal curb once your group clears the exit, and there is a 60-minute courtesy wait built in so nobody is rushing you through disembarkation. Your chauffeur meets you, loads the luggage, and drives straight to Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona. Because the vehicle is reserved for your party alone, the pace of the journey is yours from the pier to the entrance.
