From $240 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Tideline Ocean Resort & Spa in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way trip, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. The curbside greeting at the terminal is included; the Meet & Greet at the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Tideline Ocean Resort & Spa sits right on the coast in Palm Beach, at 2842 South Ocean Boulevard, 33480. It is a beachfront address in one of Florida’s most storied resort towns, where the Atlantic is a short walk from the lobby and the ocean is the constant backdrop to the stay. Arriving from the cruise port, you step out of the vehicle at a property built for slowing down, with the water and the sand waiting a few steps away.
The setting is what makes the location work. Palm Beach island runs on Gilded-Age glamour, and much of it is within easy reach of Tideline Ocean Resort & Spa. Worth Avenue and its boutiques anchor the town’s shopping and strolling, while Henry Flagler’s Whitehall mansion, now the Flagler Museum, gives a window into the era that built the island. The Breakers and its twin towers stand nearby, and the Lake Trail and Mar-a-Lago round out an afternoon of looking around.
Because Palm Beach is right on the coast, a beach afternoon is the natural next move after a cruise. You can drop the bags at Tideline Ocean Resort & Spa and walk straight to the water, or head into town to see Worth Avenue and the historic estates before settling in. Whichever way the day goes, the property puts you close to both the sand and the town’s landmarks, so the transfer ends at a place where the rest of the trip can begin without a second leg of driving.
This is a door-to-door private run from the cruise terminal to Tideline Ocean Resort & Spa, with no stops along the way. Your chauffeur meets you at the exact terminal your cruise line uses, loads every bag at the curb, and takes I-95 north for a single, direct leg to the property. The vehicle is reserved for your group alone, and the luggage rides with you the whole way, so once you clear the exit the trip runs straight to the door.
The drive normally takes 88 to 102 minutes across the 64.6-mile route, timed to your actual disembarkation rather than a fixed clock. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest stretch, and that I-95 traffic is already built into the plan. There is 60 minutes of courtesy wait at the port, so the car is staged and ready as soon as your group comes off the ship.

Meu marido e eu terminamos um cruzeiro ótimo e rematamos com um carro privativo pronto no meio-fio para nos levar até Tideline Ocean Resort & Spa — sem uma só preocupação no terminal.
