From $140 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach 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 is outside the PortMiami terminal when you come through, plans around the ship’s real arrival time, and loads the bags. The curbside greeting is covered by the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal is offered for $40. Then it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach stands at 999 N Fort Lauderdale Beach Blvd, right on the Fort Lauderdale shoreline. This is a beachfront address, so the sand and the promenade are effectively at the front door. When your ride pulls up, you step out into the heart of the beach strip rather than somewhere you still have to journey from.
Fort Lauderdale gives you a lot within simple reach of the hotel. The city layers a walkable promenade beach with the yacht-lined New River and the galleries along Las Olas Boulevard, so an afternoon can move from sand to shops to a slow riverside stroll without much planning. It is a compact, simple place to settle into after a long sailing, and the beach itself is the kind you can merely walk out onto.
If you are staying on past the cruise, the setting rewards it. Las Olas Boulevard and the Riverwalk sit close by, and Hugh Taylor Birch State Park is neighboring as well when you desire green space and a break from the waterfront. Port Everglades and its cruise piers are near the southern edge of the city, which keeps you well positioned if another sailing is on your calendar. Whatever brings you here, Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach puts you on the water and within a short reach of the streets and parks that create Fort Lauderdale worth the extra days.
The trip is one direct run from your ship’s terminal at the Port of Miami to the door of Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach, with no stops and no vehicle changes. Your chauffeur is organized by message as you clear the terminal hall, then meets your group at the curb and loads every bag. Your luggage rides in the same vehicle you do, and the car is reserved for your party alone the whole way.
From the pier it heads north along I-95 toward Fort Lauderdale, a route that normally takes about 58 to 75 minutes. Traffic on the interstate is the one real variable, which is why the pickup is timed to your ship’s actual arrival with room to spare rather than a slot cut to the minute. You walk out, the car is waiting, and Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach is the next stop.

Nada q reprochar. recibí instrucciones claras antes de la recogida, y incluso con tráfico la ruta tuvo sentido
Chegando em terra sem companhia, eu tinha um motorista esperando no terminal para a viagem até Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach — sem correria no porto. Havia trinta minutos de folga a partir do horário combinado, então nunca precisei correr para descer do navio.
Nuestra familia de cinco bajó del barco en PortMiami y el conductor cargó todas las maletas del crucero para el viaje a Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach. Para llegar del barco a Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach sin complicaciones, fue dinero bien gastado.
Tirar um grupo grande do navio e levar até Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach costuma ser dor de cabeça, mas uma van privativa reservada resolveu sem esforço. Reservar foi simples, recebemos uma confirmação sólida, e tudo bateu com o prometido.
