From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Hollywood to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes Resort 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.
The driver comes to your hotel, home or address in Hollywood at the agreed time, loads the bags and heads north with only your party on board. There is no counter, no shared van and no waiting for other passengers: the vehicle is yours from the door to the resort entrance. A courtesy wait of 15 minutes is included at the pickup.
The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes Resort sits on the Grande Lakes campus in southwest Orlando, a self-contained luxury setting placed apart from the churn of the city. It stands within reach of Orlando’s major theme-park districts, yet the grounds feel like their own quiet world once you pass through the gate. That combination — close to the attractions, calm on the property — is a large part of why so many families choose to make it the base for a park trip.
Pull up to the entrance and the setting explains itself. Manicured lakefront landscaping runs alongside the resort’s pools, its dining rooms, and its family amenities, giving the place a rhythm that has little to do with the crowds gathered a short drive away. The property reads as a destination in its own right, the kind of address where a day spent entirely on the grounds never feels like a day lost between park visits. Reach in the afternoon and there is no rush to be anywhere else.
The resort also shares its Grande Lakes campus with a sister hotel and a common collection of restaurants, a spa, golf, and water recreation. That shared footprint means the choices open up well beyond a single lobby — a family can move between dining rooms, book a tee time, unwind at the spa, or spend a slow afternoon on the water without ever leaving the gates. For travelers who want the theme parks within simple reach but a calm home to return to each evening, the Ritz-Carlton at Grande Lakes manages to hold both sides at once.
Your ride starts at the door you name in Hollywood — a home, a hotel lobby, a condo entrance — at the hour you set. The driver arrives ahead of time and waits, so there is nothing to coordinate at the last minute. Bags, strollers, and park gear go into the vehicle, everyone climbs aboard, and the same chauffeur takes the full northbound run to the resort. No transfers along the way, and no second driver partway through.
From that South Florida pickup the route heads straight to the Grande Lakes entrance, with room for a single comfort stop if the group needs to stretch. Off-peak, the door-to-door drive runs about three and a half hours, though a Friday getaway or a busy park weekend can add time as traffic thickens near Orlando. Because the price is fixed per vehicle, extra minutes on the road never change what you owe, and you step out right at the resort door.
The fare is paid in full at booking. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.

Estábamos terminando unos días de playa en Hollywood antes de la parte de los parques, y una van privada a the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes Resort hizo el cambio sin dolor. Pedimos una recogida temprano para evitar el tráfico hacia el norte, y el conductor estaba ahí antes de que termináramos de bajar. La tarifa fue fija y acordada al reservar — sin taxímetro, sin sorpresas, algo que en un viaje así agradecimos mucho.
