From $145 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek 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.
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.
Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek sits in the Fort Lauderdale region, a straight run up I-95 from the PortMiami cruise terminals. From the pier it is roughly 33.1 miles north, which puts the property within simple reach of a car headed off the ship, without the doubling-back that a scattered route can bring. For a traveler stepping off a cruise with bags in tow, that single northbound line keeps the arrival simple: the terminal at one end, the hotel door at the other.
The setting is one of its better features. Las Olas Boulevard and Port Everglades sit close by, so a group that lingers after the cruise has plenty within short reach. Fort Lauderdale itself adds the Bonnet House and Hugh Taylor Birch State Park nearby, giving a simple pair of stops for anyone with a spare afternoon before the flight home or a rented car waiting at the hotel.
Fort Lauderdale layers a promenade beach, the yacht-lined New River, and the galleries along Las Olas Boulevard, with Port Everglades’ cruise piers marking its southern edge. That mix is what makes staying on after you dock worthwhile: the water, the walkable stretches, and the city’s own port all sit within the same compact region around the hotel. Arriving here by a reserved car means the drive is done and the day is yours, whether that means an early check-in and rest or heading straight out to see the town.
Once your group clears the terminal exit, the vehicle is staged at the curb and the chauffeur handles every bag from the pier into the car. From there it is one run north on I-95 to the door of Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek, roughly 33.1 miles, so there is no changing cars and no second stop along the way. The bags ride with you, and the door of the hotel is where the journey ends.
Count on about 50 to 67 minutes terminal to door, with I-95 traffic the main thing that moves that window. Because ships rarely release everyone at the same minute, the pickup is planned around your ship’s actual arrival, and 60 minutes of courtesy wait is built in to cover customs and the luggage hall. You walk out, the car is there, and Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek is next.

Nos sorprendió para bien: el chat de reserva fue claro y rápido, trayecto sin estrés y sin imprevistos, evitamos la ruleta del rideshare, hicimos bien.
No quería andar buscando un transporte la mañana en que desembarqué, así que reservé un auto privado del puerto a Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek. Sin recorrer un estacionamiento — caminé de la terminal a un auto que ya estaba ahí. El viaje de la terminal a Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek fue silencioso y relajado, y pude acomodarme y nada más.
My wife and I didn’t want the taxi scramble outside the terminal, so we booked a private ride to Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek before we even sailed. The car was clean, cool, and comfortable, and the AC was perfect after the ship.
I was sailing by myself and arranged a private car to meet me at the terminal curb once the ship docked and take me right over to Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek. Getting to Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek straight from the terminal meant I could drop the bags and start the day.
We came off the ship worn out from a great week and a driver already waiting to take us to Sheraton Suites Cypress Creek was exactly right. Honestly the easiest part of the whole trip — the port end was completely handled. There was a sign with our name at the terminal doors, so we knew right where to go. Would book again for the next cruise.
