A private cruise transfer to or from Port of Miami and Latitude 26 Waterfront Resort and Marina runs about 155 miles in 160–171 minutes via I-595, at a flat rate from $350 per vehicle — a reserved black SUV with a bilingual chauffeur, luggage help, and pickup right at your ship’s own terminal.
Pricing is flat and per vehicle for the one-way run — the group travels together for a single locked fare, tolls and fuel included.
The most reliable option is a pre-booked private transfer: a reserved black SUV assigned to your group, timed to your ship’s arrival, staged at the terminal when you walk off.
The chauffeur loads the bags at the terminal curb and takes I-595, so the roughly 155 miles to Latitude 26 Waterfront Resort and Marina is a single, direct leg.
On a run this long the difference between a packed shuttle and your own vehicle is the whole day: you set the departure, the pace, and the playlist.
A gap between disembarkation and departure does not have to be spent at a food court: book the vehicle by the hour and see the city instead, bags safely aboard.
At the hotel, look for your driver at the main entrance. At the port, the pickup is coordinated by message as you walk off, and the included 30-minute wait window absorbs slow gangways.
Reserving is simple: half now, half on the day, and a fair cancellation window.
Courtesy wait time is included on every booking:
For a clean, surprise-free total, here is what stays outside the quoted price:
It feels closer to riding with friends than hailing a car — a higher level of service, personal and organized, with the vehicle reserved for your group alone.
Count on roughly 160–171 minutes terminal to door, light traffic to heavy.
Saturday and Sunday mornings are the port’s rush — thousands of passengers walk off the ships at once — so the pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation, with the I-595 traffic already priced into the plan.
Tell us the ship and arrival date and we stage the vehicle for the morning rush: self-assist walkers come off early, checked-luggage groups later, and either way the driver is coordinated by message as you exit.
Traveling with little ones after a cruise is routine for us:
Estero Island keeps it barefoot — wide sand, the Times Square pier district, and dolphin-filled passes at either end.

Yes — the same flat one-way rate covers the reverse leg. Book both directions together and each pickup is planned around your ship’s schedule.

Yes — book both legs together (each priced at the flat one-way rate) and the return pickup is scheduled for your sailing date.
When the schedule falls outside 7:00 AM–9:00 PM, this is the only adjustment:
Disembarkation mornings are exactly when app prices spike: thousands of passengers request cars at once and an Uber or Lyft fare can multiply at the terminal curb. A reserved transfer to Latitude 26 Waterfront Resort and Marina is priced before any of that happens, and it cannot move.
Coming off a ship with the whole passenger list, the calculus is simple — a locked fare and a driver already assigned, instead of hoping the nearest car accepts a trip from the port at rush hour.

Groups of 15 or more, or drop-offs outside the listed areas, are also arranged by message — write to us and we build the plan around your ship.
