From $260 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Sailfish Marina Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The prices are flat and quoted per vehicle for the whole one-way ride: no meter, no surge, nothing added at the curb.
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.
Sailfish Marina Resort sits right on the water at 98 Lake Drive in Palm Beach Shores, up in the stretch of coast known as The Palm Beaches. It is a waterfront property where the shoreline is only steps from your room, and many guests trade the ship’s deck for actual sand the same afternoon they step off their cruise. The setting is compact and simple to settle into: bags out of the vehicle, a short walk, and the marina and the beach are right there.
The resort’s location puts you on the doorstep of Palm Beach Shores while keeping downtown West Palm Beach within reach across the water. The area has a relaxed, palm-lined rhythm, with a waterfront promenade to stroll and the marina’s own comings and goings to watch. If you are arriving with family, the pace here is gentle after a long sailing, and the ocean does most of the entertaining without anyone needing to plan much.
For travelers who desire more than the shoreline, the wider Palm Beaches downtown is close, gathered around Rosemary Square and Clematis Street. Culture-minded guests will find the Norton Museum of Art and the Kravis Center nearby, both simple additions if you stay on a few days after the cruise. Between the beach at your door and the museums and galleries a short hop inland, Sailfish Marina Resort works equally well as a quiet base or a starting point for exploring West Palm Beach.
Your driver is matched to your ship and waits at your terminal on Dodge Island, organized by message as your group clears the hall. There is no taxi line to join and no luggage to drag across the port — the chauffeur meets you at the curb, loads every bag, and the vehicle is yours alone for the ride north. Pickup follows your ship’s real arrival time with room to spare, so slow customs lines never mean a missed car.

The fare is fixed at booking for the whole vehicle, one way, and covers gas and standard tolls, so there is nothing to sort out at the curb. When you reach the resort, the driver helps with the luggage again and sees your group to the door.

Every policy in full: FAQ
We got off the ship with the kids and a mountain of luggage, and a private van waiting at the port made the run to Sailfish Marina Resort painless. Honestly the most stress-free part of the whole trip — the port end was completely handled.
After our cruise, my wife and I didn’t want to risk a ride at the terminal, so we lined up a private car to Sailfish Marina Resort. There was a courtesy waiting window from the agreed time, so we never had to rush to gather the bags. The fare was set up front, no surprise on a busy disembarkation morning. Highly recommend.
I wasn’t going to fight for a ride the morning I disembarked, so I reserved a private car from the terminal to Sailfish Marina Resort. Getting off the ship on my own, I felt in good hands from the terminal all the way to the door of Sailfish Marina Resort.
Cruising with the kids, we wanted the port end handled, so a private van waiting at the terminal Sailfish Marina Resort was worth every bit.
