From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to St Cloud Hotel in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The prices are flat and quoted per vehicle for the whole one-way ride: no meter, no surge, nothing added at the curb.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the curbside greeting included in the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal available for $40 if you desire it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
St Cloud Hotel sits in the town of St. Cloud, out in Central Florida, well inland from the coastal bustle you left behind at the ship. It is the kind of stay that trades the crowded waterfront for a quieter, more residential pocket of the region, which makes the arrival feel calm after a morning of gangways and terminal halls.
Our chauffeur brings you all the way to the property’s own entrance, not to a corner or a curb somewhere nearby. When the vehicle rolls to a stop, you step out at the door of St Cloud Hotel with your bags handled for you, so there is no last stretch to figure out on foot and no second leg to arrange once the drive is done.
Because the ride is private and reserved for your group alone, the pace on arrival is yours to set. There is no line to join and no app to refresh, just a driver who already knows where St Cloud Hotel is and delivers you straight to it. That matters most at the end of a long transfer inland, when what you desire is simply to be dropped at the right place and walk into the lobby. For families coming off the ship, the same care applies from terminal to hotel door, and the group stays together the whole way rather than splitting across separate rides. St. Cloud rewards travelers who like a bit of distance from the busier parts of the region, and this is the door you are aiming for.
This is a genuine road trip, and that is exactly where a private vehicle earns its place. From the cruise terminal on Dodge Island the route runs inland along Florida’s Turnpike, covering about 215 miles in one continuous run to the door of St Cloud Hotel. Plan on roughly 213 to 223 minutes terminal to door, depending on how the traffic sits that day. Your luggage stays locked in the vehicle the whole way, so there is nothing to move or watch over between the pier and the hotel.
Disembarkation mornings pile up fast at the terminal exits, so your driver is staged before you clear the hall and waits for you rather than the other way around. Once your group is aboard, it is a single door-to-door drive with your own climate zone, room to stretch, and stops only when you ask for them. You settle in at the terminal curb and obtain out at the hotel entrance.

The two of us booked a private transfer for after the cruise so we wouldn’t worry about the timing getting over to St Cloud Hotel. The car was fresh and comfortable, and the AC was perfect after the ship. The ride from the terminal to St Cloud Hotel was smooth and steady, and we could just settle in.
After a week at sea I just wanted the ride handled, so a private car from the port to St Cloud Hotel was exactly right. Getting off the ship on my own, I felt totally comfortable from the terminal all the way to the door of St Cloud Hotel. I’ve already earmarked them for my next cruise out of PortMiami.
Sacar a todos del barco y hasta St Cloud Hotel suele ser un dolor de cabeza, pero una van privada reservada lo hizo sin esfuerzo. Para llegar del barco a St Cloud Hotel sin estrés, valió mucho la pena. Había un buen período de gracia desde la hora acordada, así que nunca tuvimos que apurarme para bajar del barco.
We reserved one van for the entire crew from the terminal to St Cloud Hotel so the whole group stayed together. Booking was quick, we got everything in writing, and everything matched what we were told.
