From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to The Orlando Sun Resort & Convention Center 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.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the curbside greeting included in the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal available for $40 if you desire it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
The Orlando Sun Resort & Convention Center sits in Kissimmee, on the stretch of US-192 known as Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway. Its front door carries the address 6375 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy, which places it south of Disney in one of Central Florida’s busiest resort corridors. This is inland Orlando-region territory rather than the coast, so after days at sea you trade the ship’s rail for palm-lined boulevards and a simple base for the region’s attractions and events.
The region around the resort gives arriving guests ample to fold into a stay. Numerous settle in along US-192 and its long run of shops and stops, then wander over to Old Town Kissimmee, a walkable pocket of the district that draws visitors once they are ashore. Water is close by too: Lake Tohopekaliga, known locally as Lake Toho, and the Kissimmee Lakefront both sit neighboring, and the lake’s airboats are a familiar draw for anyone chasing a little more Florida after a cruise.
Kissimmee itself lines the Irlo Bronson Highway with resorts and pool-home communities, the kind of spread-out, sunlit setting that suits families and larger groups traveling together. When your vehicle rolls up to the property, you step out at the resort door with your luggage handled and the long drive already behind you. From there the convention center, your room, and the surrounding US-192 attractions are all within the neighborhood you have just reached, ready for the days ahead.
Your ride begins right at the ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island. Once you clear disembarkation, your reserved black SUV is waiting at the pier, your bags go straight into the vehicle, and the chauffeur points north with no shared stops and no detours. From the port it is one clean run along Florida’s Turnpike up to Kissimmee, ending at the resort’s own door.
The distance is roughly 230.3 miles, and the drive runs about 229 to 238 minutes depending on traffic and the hour. Because a cruise ship rarely clears every passenger at the same minute, the pickup is planned around your ship’s actual arrival, with the included wait time absorbing customs and the luggage hall. You set the departure and the pace, and the driver handles the road and the luggage at both ends of the journey.
From the Port of Miami, plan on about 3 hours 44 minutes and 230.6 miles to reach The Orlando Sun Resort & Convention Center in Kissimmee via Florida’s Turnpike. Prices are per vehicle, not per seat: $600 for the Black SUV, $850 for the Van, $1050 for the Van XL. Pickup is at your cruise terminal curb at PortMiami.

Every policy in full: FAQ
Our family of six came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver loaded every cruise bag for the ride to The Orlando Sun Resort & Convention Center.
We reserved one van for the whole group from the terminal to The Orlando Sun Resort & Convention Center so the whole group stayed together. We were dropped at the entrance of The Orlando Sun Resort & Convention Center, not down the block. The last thing you want after a week at sea is a ride that falls through, and this was there exactly when we needed it.
Llegamos a la conferencia 20 minutos antes. Nos facilitó el día.
The two of us sailed out of PortMiami and having a private car waiting curbside for the ride over to The Orlando Sun Resort & Convention Center took all the stress out of it. There was a sign with our name at the exit, so we knew right where to go.
No taxi line — I walked off the ship and the car was waiting, then straight to The Orlando Sun Resort & Convention Center. Highly recommend.
