From $140 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Sunrise Beach Inn Hotel 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.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. The curbside greeting at the terminal is included; the Meet & Greet at the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Sunrise Beach Inn Hotel places you in the Fort Lauderdale region, a stretch of South Florida shaped by water. Canals thread the city from Las Olas all the way to the Intracoastal, the reason locals call it the Venice of America, and the beachfront promenade runs for miles. It is a simple base after a cruise, close to the water and to the parts of Fort Lauderdale most travelers actually desire to see.
Step out and you are within reach of the things that create this corner of the coast worth the journey. Las Olas Boulevard and Fort Lauderdale Beach are the usual first stops once guests are ashore, with the historic Bonnet House and its grounds neighboring for a slower afternoon. Port Everglades sits close as well, handy if your plans feature another sailing or a day around the harbor. The hotel keeps you near all of it without putting you in the middle of the crowds.
When your ride pulls up, look for your driver at the main entrance. There is no wandering a strange lobby or hunting for a desk with your bags in tow. The chauffeur handles the luggage at the curb and sees you to the door, so the first minutes at Sunrise Beach Inn Hotel are spent checking in and unwinding rather than sorting out logistics. It is a quiet, personal finish to a long journey day, and the same care carries through if you book the return leg back to the ship.
The journey is a single private leg from the cruise terminal to the front door of Sunrise Beach Inn Hotel. As you walk off the ship, your driver is already staged and confirms the meeting point by message, so you head straight to the vehicle instead of joining the exit crush. Disembarkation mornings back up speedy, but the wait is the driver’s, not yours. Bags go into the vehicle at the terminal curb, and the route runs up I-95 as one direct leg north.
The vehicle is yours alone for the whole ride, with no strangers and no extra stops. A bilingual chauffeur handles the luggage at both ends and knows the port well. Because the pickup is timed to your ship rather than to app availability, a 60-minute wait window is built in to absorb a slow gangway or a late clearing hall, and you are dropped right at the hotel entrance.
