From $340 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to White Sands Resort Club in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
The driver is outside the PortMiami terminal when you come through, plans around the ship’s real arrival time, and loads the bags. The curbside greeting is covered by the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal is offered for $40. Then it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
White Sands Resort Club sits on the Gulf Coast in Naples, the polished stretch of southwest Florida where the shoreline settles into calm water and long, quiet afternoons. It is a resort base built for people who desire the beach town close and the crowds far, and it makes a simple landing spot after a cruise, when you would rather trade the terminal bustle for open sky and salt air. From here the pace of Naples takes over rapidly, and most travelers locate the rest of the day plans itself.
Step out from White Sands Resort Club and the top of Naples is within reach. The historic Naples Pier draws people down to the water at sunset, and the shops and cafes of Third Street South make a simple afternoon on foot. Fifth Avenue South is the town’s dining spine, a run of white-tablecloth blocks that fills up after dark. Together they offer the area a walkable, unhurried rhythm that suits the first day off a ship.
There is more to reach beyond the town core. The Naples Botanical Garden lays out cultivated grounds a short journey away, and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park protects a quieter length of Gulf shoreline for swimming and beach days. The Everglades sit at the region’s back door, and Marco Island rounds out the coast to the south. Whether you are staying put by the water or venturing out, White Sands Resort Club keeps you close to the parts of Naples worth the journey.
This is one clean run across the state. Your chauffeur meets your group after you clear disembarkation and walks you to the vehicle at the curb, then loads every bag so you can settle in. From the terminal it is a single journey along I-75 out to Naples, no shared stops and no detours, ending right at the door of White Sands Resort Club. Plan on roughly 134 to 145 minutes on the road, depending on the hour and how I-75 is moving.
Because it is a genuine cross-state drive, the private vehicle earns its keep here: room to stretch, your own climate control, and a car reserved for your party alone. The pickup follows your ship’s actual arrival rather than a fixed slot, with courtesy wait time built in, so a slow exit off the ship never costs you the ride within that time. Tell us your ship and date and the vehicle is staged for when you actually step ashore.
