From $150 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Sun International Resorts 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.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, the Meet & Greet at the terminal adds $40, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Sun International Resorts stands at 1560 Sawgrass Corporate Parkway, out in the western reach of Broward County. This is the peaceful, spread-out side of the map, where the residential grid of Sunrise, Plantation, and Coral Springs fills in the streets around the property. After a few days at sea, the pace here feels like a genuine change: wide roads, green space, and room to breathe, well away from the crush of the coast.
The stay puts you close to the things people actually come west for. Sawgrass Mills is the anchor of the region, pulling shoppers from across the region into one enormous run of stores, and it sits within easy reach of the resort. Amerant Bank Arena is nearby as well, so a concert or a game can slot into the trip without a long drive. Between the two, the neighborhood balances a busy retail draw against the quiet blocks that surround it.
There is more within a short hop for travelers who like to wander. The Plantation Historical Museum gives a look at how this part of the county grew, and Tradewinds Park in North Broward offers trails and open ground when you desire to be outdoors. Arriving straight from the ship, you step out of the vehicle at the door with your bags in hand, and the whole western corner of Broward is laid out around you, ready whenever you are.
This is a single, door-to-door leg from your cruise terminal on Dodge Island straight to Sun International Resorts. Once your group clears the hall, the chauffeur meets you at the curb, loads the luggage, and heads out on I-75 and the Palmetto Expressway toward west Broward. There are no detours and no other passengers to collect along the way. Plan on roughly 49 to 63 minutes terminal to door, depending on whether the roads are running light or heavy that morning.
Because the pickup is timed to your ship’s actual arrival, the driver is already in position when you walk off, and the bags stay in the vehicle the entire trip. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest stretch, with thousands of travelers disembarking at once, so that traffic is factored into the plan from the start. You settle into the car and let the chauffeur handle the route while you watch the city give way to the western neighborhoods around your stay.

Primeira viagem solo depois de muito tempo, não sabia qual transporte escolher, acertei. mesmo com trânsito a rota fez sentido. Recomendo sem pensar duas vezes. Economizei uns 15 minutos vs a fila do Uber.
My wife and I weren’t up for the chaos outside the terminal, so we reserved a private ride to Sun International Resorts before we even sailed. We were dropped straight at the door of Sun International Resorts, not across the street.
Waiting at the curb the moment we walked out, and a smooth ride over to Sun International Resorts. It was a private car for our party alone — nobody else to wait on — exactly right for the morning.
The two of us cruised from PortMiami and having a private car meet us at the terminal for the ride over to Sun International Resorts made the morning easy. There was a sign with our name at the curb, so we didn’t have to look around. The van was spotless, and there was space for everything.
De crucero con los niños, no queríamos caos el día del desembarque, así que una van privada esperando en la terminal Sun International Resorts fue perfecto. Había una ventana de cortesía desde la hora acordada, así que nunca tuvimos que apurarme para pasar la aduana.
