From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Sunshine Inn in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
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.
Sunshine Inn is a Kissimmee stay set along the US-192 / Irlo Bronson Highway corridor, the long value strip that has anchored central Florida park trips for years. It is the classic base for families who desire a straightforward place to land, close to the theme parks yet away from the higher price of staying at the gates. When you arrive, you are in simple reach of the everyday shops, diners, and attractions that line the highway, so the practical parts of a vacation stay close at hand.
The setting is very much Kissimmee’s park country. Guests here often work in a visit to neighboring Lake Tohopekaliga, a wide central-Florida lake, along with Gatorland and the Kissimmee Lakefront once they have settled in. Old Town’s carnival strip and the cluster of gator attractions sit minutes from the Disney area, which is what has made this corridor a dependable choice for return visitors. The inn keeps you inside that orbit without putting you in the middle of the crowds.
What you locate on arrival is simple and useful: a familiar highway address, plenty of vacation-home and roadside options around you, and quick access to the US-192 attractions that define the area. Anything about the stay itself lives on Sunshine Inn’s own page; our part is the road. From the door here, the drive back to the ship is a genuine road journey across the state, and that is exactly the run a private vehicle is built for.
This is a door-to-terminal private run between the Port of Miami and Sunshine Inn, covering roughly 221.4 miles along Florida’s Turnpike. The drive normally takes about 232 to 240 minutes, depending on traffic and the hour you travel. Your chauffeur meets you at the cruise terminal on Dodge Island, timed to your actual disembarkation, so there is no line to stand in and no bags to drag across the port. Every case goes into the vehicle, and the car is reserved for your group alone.
From the pier it is one direct run north, tolls and fuel already built into the flat price, ending right at the door of Sunshine Inn. Saturday and Sunday mornings are the port’s busiest, with thousands of passengers walking off at once, so the pickup is planned around when your ship clears rather than a fixed clock time. The rhythm stays simple: clear the terminal, bags to the curb, one ride to Kissimmee.

We got off the ship with the kids worn out after the cruise, and a private van there at the terminal made the run to Sunshine Inn painless. There was a courtesy waiting window from the agreed time, so we never had to rush to gather the bags.
For a stress-free morning off the ship, my husband and I had a private driver meet us at the cruise terminal to run us over to Sunshine Inn. The fare was locked in at booking, the same number we were quoted. We’ve already earmarked them for our next cruise out of PortMiami.
As a solo cruiser I lined up a private transfer from the terminal to Sunshine Inn for the morning I got off, and it could not have been easier. The car was roomy enough for all the cruise luggage, and there was space for everything. Booking was quick, I got clear pickup details, and everything matched what I was told.
We weren’t about to wrangle kids and luggage looking for a ride at the port, so we reserved a private van to Sunshine Inn. Getting to Sunshine Inn first thing meant we could drop the bags and start the day.
