From $345 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to The Vanderbilt Beach Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
Your driver tracks the flight and adjusts to the real landing time, then meets you at the arrivals level of Miami International Airport. Curbside meet-and-greet is included; if you prefer to be met inside the terminal with a name sign, add the Meet & Greet choice for $40. Once the bags are in the vehicle, the ride is direct and door to door.
The Vanderbilt Beach Resort sits on Gulfshore Drive North in Naples, the upscale gateway to Florida’s Gulf coast. This is a stretch of shoreline where the pace slows down and the water sets the tone, and the resort places you right in that pocket of the region rather than out on its edges. When your ride pulls up at the address on Gulfshore Drive North, you are already where you came to be.
Naples is known for its walkable, polished character, and the resort keeps you close to the parts of it people journey for. The Naples Pier is within easy reach, along with Fifth Avenue South and its dining and galleries, and Third Street South nearby. The Naples Botanical Garden is another short outing from the same base, so a single stay can fold in the water, the shops, a good meal, and a quiet morning among the plantings without long detours between them.
The wider setting matters as much as the resort itself. Naples opens toward the Gulf on one side and toward the Everglades on the other, which gives a trip real variety: beach days and evening strolls down Fifth Avenue South, then a change of scenery inland whenever you want it. Because The Vanderbilt Beach Resort is a longer haul from the airport, arriving in your own vehicle counts for more than usual, with room to stretch and a driver who can plan a rest stop if you ask for one along the way.
The trip runs about 125 miles from Miami International Airport across to the Gulf coast, roughly 122 to 132 minutes depending on traffic on I-75. Your driver tracks the flight and is waiting as you come out of the terminal, so there is no pin to drop and no line to join. The vehicle is reserved for your group alone, luggage rides with you, and the fare is fixed before you journey, tolls and fuel included.
Once your bags are loaded, the driver takes I-75 west and you settle in for the run to Naples. It is one continuous ride, door to door, with no transfer and no stop you did not ask for. If your flight lands early or late, the pickup merely shifts to match, and drop-off is right at The Vanderbilt Beach Resort on Gulfshore Drive North. Longer distance, same flat rate, and a calmer way to reach.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.

Llegamos a la conferencia 20 minutos antes. Mejor imposible.
Tras un vuelo de madrugada, lo último que queríamos era buscar auto — qué bueno que reservamos el traslado a The Vanderbilt Beach Resort. El conductor fue un conductor seguro y tranquilo, todo muy pulcro.
Traveling with the kids, I was NOT about to wrangle a taxi at MIA, so I booked a private van to The Vanderbilt Beach Resort. Landing late at night, it was a huge comfort to have a private car already waiting instead of a taxi gamble. Booking was easy, we got the pickup details in writing, and everything went exactly as planned.
Viajando solo, quería la llegada resuelta al salir del Aeropuerto de Miami, y esto no pudo ser más fácil. Siguieron el vuelo, así que aunque llegué tarde, el auto ya estaba ahí.
