From $365 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Sandpiper Gulf Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
The pickup follows the flight, not the schedule you booked weeks ago, so an early landing or a late one changes only the meeting time. You are met at MIA arrivals with the greeting included in the fare, and the Meet & Greet inside the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40 more. From there it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Sandpiper Gulf Resort sits on Estero Boulevard in Fort Myers Beach, out on Estero Island along Florida’s Gulf coast. The address is 5550 Estero Boulevard, Fort Myers Beach 33931, and the setting is the barrier-island kind: a low, easygoing beach town built along a single main road with the water never far from wherever you stand. This is where your private ride ends, so the whole trip finishes at the resort door rather than at a distant lot or terminal.
Fort Myers Beach is a laid-back town of broad, open sand, and the resort places you within reach of its most-walked spots. The pier at Times Square is the town’s gathering point, a short distance away, and the beach itself is close enough that many travelers create their first stop the water on the same day they reach. Because the ride drops you right at the property, you can settle in and step out toward the sand without arranging anything more.
Beyond the immediate beach, the island puts a couple of green spaces within easy reach. Lovers Key State Park and Bowditch Point Park both sit near Fort Myers Beach, giving you quieter stretches of shoreline and walking paths a short drive or stroll from the resort. Estero Island itself is the through-line here: sand on one side, the peaceful water on the other, and the town’s small cluster of landmarks strung along the boulevard. Sandpiper Gulf Resort keeps you in the middle of that, close to the pier, the sand, and the parks that draw people to this part of the coast.
Your driver is waiting when you clear the terminal at Miami International Airport, tracking your flight so the pickup lines up with your actual landing rather than a guessed time. There is no counter to locate and no line to join; you are met at arrivals, your bags go straight into the vehicle, and the whole party rides together in one private car reserved just for you.
From the airport the route runs north on I-75 toward the coast, a run of roughly 143 miles that takes about 145 to 156 minutes depending on how the traffic moves. Tolls and fuel are already covered, so nothing is added along the way. You ride without a transfer or a stop you did not ask for, straight to the door of Sandpiper Gulf Resort, with each passenger’s checked bag and carry-on stowed for the trip.

There were six of us arriving in Miami, and one private transfer to Sandpiper Gulf Resort was the easy way. No taxi line, no standing around waiting on an app — we just walked out and the car was ready.
Traveling with the whole family, I was NOT about to wrangle a taxi at MIA, so I booked a private van to Sandpiper Gulf Resort.
Loved it — private, punctual, and painless. With the kids worn out from the flight, it helped that the driver was patient and the van had room for all our stuff.
