From $150 per vehicle, a private one-way ride from the Port of Miami cruise terminal to Sea Ranch Lakes at a flat rate.
Each price is the whole-vehicle rate for your group rather than a per-seat charge, and it is fixed the moment you reserve — heavy sailing-day traffic and peak dates never change what you owe.
On the morning you leave the ship, collect your luggage and clear the terminal building; the driver is already at the curb, so there is no app to open and no line to stand in. A curbside greeting comes with every Port of Miami pickup, and if you would rather be met by a printed name sign, that can be arranged for an extra $40. Message your ship, terminal, and group size over WhatsApp ahead of time so the pickup is timed to when you actually walk off. Sixty minutes of waiting is included, which comfortably covers a normal customs and baggage line.
The vehicle belongs to your party alone — no shared seats and no detours to collect anyone else. From the port the route heads north on I-95 into Broward County and ends at your exact door in Sea Ranch Lakes, whether that is a place on the beach or a stay a few blocks inland. The driver loads and unloads the cruise bags at both ends, so a week of luggage travels in a single journey. To hold a vehicle, send your drop-off address along with your sailing details and it is reserved in your name.
Sea Ranch Lakes is a small gated village on the Atlantic shoreline of Broward County, north of the port. It has the feel of a hushed, low-rise seaside place — shaded lanes, family houses, and a private-beach character instead of a wall of high-rise resorts. The barrier-island coast around it gives you ocean access, relaxed waterfront dining, and an unhurried pace right by the water. It sits in the northeast-Broward beach belt near Lauderdale-by-the-Sea and the broader Fort Lauderdale shoreline, so it rewards a slow beach day far more than a crowded boardwalk.

The run climbs north from the cruise terminal along I-95 toward the Broward coast, and off-peak it moves as one clean, uninterrupted stretch. Disembarkation mornings are the variable, since several ships can empty at once and fill the terminal roads and the interstate rapidly; rain or a rush-hour departure can add to that. Rather than promise a fixed clock, the driver follows your ship’s actual arrival and shapes the pickup around it, leaving a cushion for the busy walk-off. That way the vehicle is in place when you truly step out, not when a timetable guessed you would. Giving yourself a relaxed margin before your pickup keeps the ride to Sea Ranch Lakes calm instead of rushed.
Yes — the ride is door to door, so wherever your address sits along this stretch of coast, the driver takes you right to it. A spot on the sand or one set a little inland makes no difference to the flat rate; the vehicle delivers your group to the exact Sea Ranch Lakes doorstep you give when booking.
Yes — the same private vehicles run between Miami International Airport and the Port of Miami cruise terminals. If your journey pairs a flight with a sailing, send both the flight and the ship details on WhatsApp and the pickup is organized around your arrival time.
