Book a private black-car transfer to or from Port of Miami and Villas in a Black SUV for up to 5 passengers or a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van for 6 to 14, at a flat rate from $350 per vehicle. Your bilingual driver meets the group curbside at the cruise terminal, plans around your ship’s timing, and carries the luggage door to door.
Fares are per vehicle — your whole cruise group travels for one price, set by vehicle size:
Cases usually reach the pavement before the whole party does, coming out on a cart or in someone’s hands while the rest of the group is still inside. Do the count there, at the moment everything is together and before anything goes into the vehicle. It takes seconds, and it is far easier than working out what is missing once the doors are shut and the road is under way.
The top way is a private black-car transfer reserved before your sailing, running door to door. Pick the vehicle by group size — a Black SUV for up to 5, a private Sprinter van for 6 to 9, or a larger Sprinter for 10 to 14 — then send your ship name, terminal, passenger count, and villa address on WhatsApp. On arrival your group walks out of the terminal to a driver waiting at the curb; there is no app to open and no line to join. The car heads straight to your villa entrance with the bags loaded for you. Book at least 24 hours ahead so your vehicle and driver are locked in, and share any oversized-bag notes so we size up the vehicle if needed.
You ride in a private vehicle reserved for your group alone — no shared seats, no detours to collect strangers. The fare is flat and locked the moment you book, so peak demand and heavy traffic never move the price. Your driver is bilingual (English plus Spanish or Portuguese) and helps load and unload every bag from the terminal to the villa door. Booking runs through direct WhatsApp with a real person, not an app queue, so you can ask questions and adjust before journey day. For a cruise schedule built around families, luggage, and a fixed all-aboard time, one reserved car and one clear price keep the day predictable and peaceful.
Yes. The day before your trip you receive a text with your driver’s name, the vehicle make, and the license plate, plus exact pickup instructions for your terminal. If your ship time changes, message the same WhatsApp thread and we adjust the plan with you.
Your drive time hinges on the day’s cruise-terminal traffic, so we plan the pickup around your ship rather than a fixed clock. On a peaceful off-peak stretch the roads out of PortMiami move freely and the run to your villa is straightforward. On a hectic disembarkation morning, when several ships empty their passengers at once, the terminal approaches and neighboring ramps back up and the same journey takes longer. Because the exact minutes shift with the day, we do not quote a rigid number that traffic could break; instead your driver watches your ship’s debark timing and sets the departure to match. With 30 minutes of courtesy waiting at the terminal, a slower walk off the ship does not throw off the plan, and you reach the villa door with the luggage carried the whole way.
Villas is a settled residential community in Lee County, just south of Fort Myers — quiet suburban streets near the US-41 corridor rather than a resort strip. It suits travelers heading to a private address, visiting family, or basing themselves within easy reach of Fort Myers and the Gulf beaches. Your driver delivers you door to door at the exact address you book, so there is no last-mile scramble with the bags.
Most travelers here are staying at a private address, but the surrounding Fort Myers area offers hotels in every range, and the Gulf-beach communities to the west lean quiet and beach-focused. Your transfer runs door to door to whichever address you choose.
Select the private vehicle that fits your cruise party and its bags. Every choice is reserved for your group only:
Your rate covers the ride and the extras that matter on a cruise day, with nothing bolted on afterward:
A few items sit outside the rate. Driver gratuity is optional and always appreciated, parking fees apply where charged, and additional child seats beyond the first carry a small fee. Waiting past the courtesy window is billed in 30-minute blocks, and food, drinks, and unscheduled stops are not included — a short stop arranged in advance may carry a small fee.
Each passenger travels with one checked bag plus one carry-on, and there is genuine room for cruise luggage in both the SUV and the vans. Your driver loads and unloads every bag, from the terminal curb to the villa door, so nobody wrestles suitcases after a long sailing. Traveling with extra or oversized bags? Message us on WhatsApp before your journey with the count, and we confirm the space or size you up to a larger private van. This is a reassurance, not a hard cap — we would rather match the right vehicle to your group than turn bags away at the curb. Share the details when you book and the vehicle is ready for them on the day.
Payment is cashless up front, through Venmo, Zelle, or a secure payment link sent by WhatsApp or the website. Card and payment-link transactions add a 4% bank fee; full cash payment at pickup is not accepted. A round journey is simply double the one-way price, booked as one reservation so both legs are locked to the same vehicle and driver. You settle up front and, on Miami-side pickups, hand the balance to your driver on journey day — the split is spelled out below so there are no surprises at the curb.
For a pickup starting at PortMiami or elsewhere on the Miami side, a 50% deposit confirms the booking and the remaining 50% goes to your driver on trip day, with cash accepted for that balance. Reverse-direction pickups from farther areas such as Broward or Palm Beach are paid in full ahead of the trip.
Daytime pickups between 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM carry no surcharge. Trips that depart outside those hours add a small after-hours amount, applied once per journey:
Yes — once your cruise ends we drive private groups from PortMiami straight to Miami International Airport, and onward to other South Florida airports and cities when your flight leaves from elsewhere. It is the same private Black SUV or Sprinter van and the same door-to-door service, with your driver planning around your flight departure so a slow debark does not put the connection at risk. Share your flight details on WhatsApp when you book, at least 24 hours ahead, and confirm your terminal and passenger count. Pickups on this route start at PortMiami; the drop-off can be your airport, hotel, or onward destination, and the driver carries the cruise luggage the whole way.
Swift answers to what cruise passengers ask most before they book a private transfer to or from the terminal.
Nothing changes on your side. Your driver tracks the ship’s real-time arrival and disembark timing, then re-times the pickup at no extra cost. There is also 30 minutes of courtesy waiting at the terminal from the agreed time, so a slow debark never costs you the ride.
Your driver waits right outside your PortMiami terminal and meets the group as you walk out, holding a printed name sign when you request one on WhatsApp. Look for your reserved Black SUV or Sprinter van in the pickup lane; the driver takes the bags straight from the curb.
The rate is per vehicle, not per person — your whole cruise group rides for the single price shown above. A private van seats up to 14, so larger families and groups split one fare rather than paying each. A round trip is simply double the one-way price.
Yes. Disembarkation-day pickups are our core service. Book at least 24 hours ahead so we can lock your vehicle, then share your ship and terminal on WhatsApp. Your driver tracks the debark timing and meets you as your group clears the terminal with its luggage.
Book at least 24 hours ahead to guarantee your vehicle and driver. Under-24-hour requests are still reviewed manually, but availability is not guaranteed. Once booked, you can move the pickup time with 24+ hours notice, subject to availability, and the driver’s details arrive by text the day before.

Multi-generation sailings often end with a child continuing on with relatives rather than a parent. Put the accompanying adult’s name and number on the reservation as the contact, and make sure the parents know the arrangement and the destination address. If a child seat is wanted for that leg, ask for it at booking rather than assuming one travels with every vehicle.

Message us to hold your date and arrange the deposit — we will take it from there.
