From $170 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Technologies Inn in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
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.
Technologies Inn is a place to stay in Boca Raton, the manicured stretch of Florida’s southeast coast that sits north of Miami and the cruise piers. It gives cruise travelers a base away from the port’s morning rush, close to the polished arcades and golf greens the city is known for. If your sailing ends in the region and you would rather settle in before heading home, the hotel puts you within easy reach of Boca Raton’s beaches and parks.
Step outside and Boca Raton rewards a slow afternoon. Mizner Park anchors the town with its Mediterranean-style arcades, a short trip from the greens that give the area its reputation. For time near the water, Red Reef Park lines the beach, and the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center sits close by with its coastal hammock and sea-turtle work. Florida Atlantic University is also neighboring, adding the energy of a college town to the mix. Together they create an easy list for a day or two after the ship, with no long drives required.
Arrival at Technologies Inn is meant to be simple. Your chauffeur meets you at the main entrance, so there is no wandering a parking lot or hunting for a curb after the drive up from the coast. Luggage assist is part of the ride at both ends, which matters when you are unloading a week of cruise bags. Whether you are staying on to see Boca Raton or using the hotel as an overnight stop before the trip home, the handoff at the door keeps the last stretch peaceful.
The ride begins the moment you clear the terminal hall. You are picked up curbside at your cruise terminal, not sent to a distant lot, and the pickup is organized by message as you walk off the ship. An included 60-minute wait window covers slow gangways and long disembarkation lines, so the waiting is the driver’s job, not yours. From the pier it is one run north to Technologies Inn, with no shared stops along the way.
The route follows I-95 up the coast toward Boca Raton, a single leg from the port to the hotel door. Your bags ride in the vehicle with you, and luggage assist is included at both ends. Fuel and standard tolls are already inside the flat fare, so nothing is added at the curb. When you reach Technologies Inn, the driver brings you to the main entrance and helps unload.
