From $240 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full journey one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
Tell us the ship and the driver times the pickup to its arrival, then waits at your terminal’s curb at PortMiami. The curbside greeting there is included in the fare; the Meet & Greet at the terminal is a $40 add-on. From the port the ride is direct, with no other passengers.
Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown sits right in the middle of the city’s downtown, the kind of address that puts the water within simple reach. The shoreline is only steps away, and plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they disembark. After days of cruise routine, having the coast so close makes the switch from ship to land feel gentle rather than abrupt.
Downtown West Palm Beach hums around a few landmarks worth walking to. Rosemary Square anchors the shopping and dining scene, the Norton’s galleries draw anyone with an eye for art, and a palm-lined waterfront promenade runs along the edge of it all for slow evening strolls. Staying here means most of that is on foot, so you can settle in and explore without needing the vehicle again once you reach.
The hotel side of things is straightforward and built for travelers arriving off a ship. You will locate helpful touches like luggage holds and early check-in when your schedule and the ship’s clock don’t quite line up, plus the everyday amenities that create a longer stay relaxing. When you pull up, your driver brings you to the main entrance and helps with every bag, so the walk from curb to lobby is short and unhurried. From there, the room, the restaurants, and the shoreline are all a few minutes apart, ready whenever you are.
Your chauffeur is staged at the cruise terminal and timed to your ship’s actual arrival, so when you walk off there is a vehicle waiting rather than a line to stand in. Pickup is organized by message as you come through, the included wait window absorbs a slow gangway, and every bag goes into the vehicle at the curb. From there it is one direct leg up I-95 to Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown, reserved for your group alone.
The drive normally runs about 84 to 100 minutes terminal to door, depending on traffic and the hour of the morning. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest stretch, with thousands of passengers stepping off at once, so the pickup is planned around your disembarkation and the usual I-95 traffic is already built into the timing. At the hotel your driver brings you to the main entrance and helps unload, and the same flat rate covers the reverse leg on embarkation day.

Última etapa de un día largo sin complicaciones. Recomendación fácil
Tras una semana a bordo, mi pareja y yo no queríamos andar buscando un transporte en la terminal, así que coordinamos un auto privado a Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown. El auto estaba limpio, fresco y cómodo, un alivio con el calor de Miami. El viaje de la terminal a Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown fue tranquilo y parejo, y pudimos acomodarnos y nada más.
Our family of four came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver had room for all the suitcases for the ride to Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown. The driver got the whole pile of luggage in so we didn’t have to struggle with anything. The kids were done after a week at sea, and getting straight to Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown without a scramble at the port was a relief. Would book again for the next cruise.
After a week at sea I only wanted nothing left to think about, so a private car from the port to Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown was money well spent. Getting off the ship on my own, I felt totally comfortable from the terminal all the way to the door of Residence Inn West Palm Beach Downtown. The driver got the whole pile of luggage in so I didn’t have to juggle it all.
