From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne 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.
Tell us the ship and the driver times the pickup to its arrival, then waits at your terminal’s curb at PortMiami. The curbside greeting there is included in the fare; the Meet & Greet at the terminal is a $40 add-on. From the port the ride is direct, with no other passengers.
The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne sits in Orlando, and it makes a peaceful base for a city that turns out to be far more than its theme parks. Your driver brings you straight to the door, so the first thing you handle after a long day of journey is checking in, not finding your way around an unfamiliar region. For anything to do with your room, on-site parking, or the details of check-in, the property itself is the place to ask, since those arrangements belong to the hotel rather than to your ride.
What is worth knowing is how much of real Orlando sits within simple reach of the stay. Downtown, Lake Eola Park draws people out for its swans and its open water in the middle of the city. A short way off, Winter Park lays out the boutiques of Park Avenue, and the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum keeps its collection close by. When there is a game or a show on, the Kia Center hosts arena nights that pull the whole region together.
So the property works on two levels. It gives you a quiet room to return to, and it puts a genuine city — its downtown lake, its museum, its shopping street, its arena — inside a comfortable orbit of where you are sleeping. After the long haul up from the coast, that mix of rest and reach is exactly what most travelers want from the first night, and it is what The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne is set up to offer.
This is a terminal-to-door run, and it is a real road trip rather than a swift hop. From the cruise port to The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne is roughly 235 miles along Florida’s Turnpike, and the drive normally takes about 232 to 242 minutes. Traffic on the Turnpike is the one thing that moves those numbers, which is why your pickup is planned around your ship’s actual arrival with room built in rather than a slot cut to the minute.
Your chauffeur meets your group at the terminal curb once you clear the exit, loads every bag, and keeps your party’s own vehicle to yourselves for the whole distance. There is time to stretch out, your own climate, and stops only when you ask for them. Sixty minutes of courtesy wait are built into the port pickup, so the pace of customs never costs you the ride you booked within that time.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.

After our week aboard, my partner and I didn’t want to risk a ride at the terminal, so we pre-booked a private car to The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and license plate, so there was nothing to figure out on the way out.
Depois de uma semana a bordo, meu marido e eu não íamos nos arriscar com um transporte no terminal, então reservamos um carro privativo até The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne. Chegar a The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne logo cedo significou que pudemos nos acomodar sem ficar esperando.
