A private cruise transfer to or from Port of Miami and Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona runs about 226.5 miles in 221–233 minutes via Florida’s Turnpike, at a flat rate from $550 per vehicle — a reserved black SUV with a bilingual chauffeur, luggage help, and pickup right at your ship’s own terminal.
These are one-way, per-vehicle rates for transfers to or from Port of Miami; the price you book is the price you pay.
Book the ride before you dock and disembarkation becomes the easy part: your reserved black SUV meets you at the terminal and runs straight to Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona, no stops.
From the pier it is one run along Florida’s Turnpike — about 226.5 miles — ending at the door of Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona.
The booking terms fit on one hand — deposit, balance, refund window, done.
Leaving for the ship, the chauffeur meets you at the hotel entrance and loads the bags; coming off the ship, the car is staged for the terminal curb once your group clears the exit — with 30 minutes of courtesy wait built in.
From Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona the port is a genuine road trip, and that is exactly when a private vehicle earns its keep — space to stretch, your own climate zone, and stops only when you ask.
For early arrivals and late flights we run flexible, private hourly tours straight from the cruise terminals — the luggage stays locked in the vehicle while you explore.
Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona is based in Orlando, within Central Florida; the transfer serves the property’s own entrance, not a corner nearby.
The hotel side — amenities, luggage holds, early check-in — is covered at Residence Inn Orlando Lake Nona’s official page.

The fare includes complimentary waiting:
The trip normally runs 221–233 minutes for the 226.5-mile route.
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 Florida’s Turnpike traffic already priced into the plan.
We keep it personal: one group per vehicle, a bilingual chauffeur, and better service from the first message to the terminal curb.
For the whole vehicle. The flat rate above covers your entire group one way — it does not increase per passenger.
Roughly 221 to 233 minutes terminal to door, depending on traffic and the hour.
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.
Plan on one checked bag plus a carry-on per passenger in the SUV; the vans carry proportionally more. Message us about oversized items and we confirm the right vehicle.
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:
The difference shows at 8 AM on a turnaround Saturday: app queues and climbing multipliers at the port exits on one side; on the other, a chauffeur already staged at your terminal at a fare set days ago.
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.

No vieron mi primer mensaje enseguida, pero el viaje en sí fue tranquilo!
Atendeu o esperado: coube toda a bagagem sem problema, espaço de sobra pra família, voltamos porque funciona, simples assim. Economizei uns 15 minutos vs a fila do Uber.
Sin problemas. ningún apuro con los bolsos de mano, la verdad incluso con tráfico la ruta tuvo sentido.
Se nota la organización. primera vez arreglando un traslado anticipado, sin problemas, la verdad el baúl entró cuatro maletas grandes más las de mano.
Sem reclamações. ajudou até com o carrinho do bebê, e sem pedágio surpresa, sem empurrar nada, só a corrida.
