From $365 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Seaside Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
The driver monitors the flight and is at the arrivals level when you walk out, with the curbside meet-and-greet already covered by the fare. Travelers who desire the Meet & Greet, a name sign inside the terminal, can add it for $40. Luggage is loaded by the driver and the ride runs private, door to door.
Seaside Resort sits on Estero Island, the barrier island that forms Fort Myers Beach. This is a laid-back stretch of Florida’s Gulf coast, known for its wide, soft sand and an easygoing pace that has little to do with the bustle of the city you flew into. When you reach, the beach town feels like a place built for slowing down rather than rushing around.
The resort puts you within easy reach of the island’s best-known spots. Times Square, with its pier, is the social heart of Fort Myers Beach, and Lovers Key State Park and Bowditch Point Park are both close enough for a short outing once you have settled in. The water itself is only a short walk or drive from the property, which is why many travelers add a beach stop the same day they reach, bags barely unpacked.
For the property’s own details — rooms, on-site amenities, and check-in times — the best source is always Seaside Resort’s official page, since those change more often than anything else. What we can promise is the part that gets you there: a private ride from the airport straight to the front of the resort, so your journey to the island begins the moment you step off the plane rather than in a rental line or a taxi queue. Reach, hand off the luggage, and the quiet rhythm of Fort Myers Beach is yours.
From the arrivals curb at MIA, the journey to Seaside Resort is a single leg along I-75 — roughly 154.9 miles, straight to the door. Your driver tracks the inbound flight in real time, so the car is ready when you step out of the terminal. After you clear the gate, the driver meets you, helps load the luggage, and walks you to the vehicle. There is no queue to wait in and no wondering where your ride is.
Plan on about 153 to 164 minutes door to door, depending on traffic. Off-peak, I-75 moves rapidly; the morning and late-afternoon rush push the drive toward the higher end, which is exactly why the pickup is re-timed around your actual arrival. On a route this long, the whole car stays yours the whole way — your pace, your group, and a clear run from the airport to Fort Myers Beach.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.

La llegada más fácil que he tenido — conductor esperando, maletas resueltas, directo a Seaside Resort.
We came with a group of friends and wanted all of us in one private ride from the airport. The driver loaded all our bags so we didn’t have to lift a thing after the flight. It was a private car for our party alone, which made the ride to Seaside Resort relaxed.
Nuestra familia llegó a MIA y el conductor tenía la sillita lista — un alivio. Sinceramente la parte más fácil de nuestro viaje — todo resuelto desde que aterrizamos. El van estaba muy cómodo después del vuelo, un alivio con el calor de Miami. ¡Gracias por la llegada tan simple!
A few friends and I flew into MIA and booked one private van from the airport to Seaside Resort. No taxi line, no standing around waiting on an app — we just walked out and the car was there. They kept an eye on the flight, so even though we got in behind schedule, the car was right there.
Landing with the whole crew, it made all the difference that the driver was right there at arrivals with room for everyone. No taxi line, no rideshare surge — we just walked out and the car was there. Our flight came in late and the driver adjusted with no problem — not a worry at all.
