This is a terminal-to-door private transfer to or from Port of Miami and Fountain Cottages Inn — about 155.1 miles and 159–170 minutes along I-595 — booked in advance at a flat rate from $350 per vehicle, with a bilingual chauffeur and full luggage assistance included.
Pricing is flat and per vehicle for the one-way run — the group travels together for a single locked fare, tolls and fuel included.
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 Fountain Cottages Inn, no stops.
From the pier it is one run along I-595 — about 155.1 miles — ending at the door of Fountain Cottages Inn.
If you stay on after the cruise, the Edison & Ford Winter Estates and JetBlue Park are close by, with Hammond Stadium and the Caloosahatchee River also nearby in Fort Myers.
The booking terms fit on one hand — deposit, balance, refund window, done.
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.
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.
Whatever the group size, the vehicle is exclusively yours for the run from the port.
Child safety seats are part of the service:
The Edison & Ford estates and a revived riverfront downtown give Fort Myers its character, with spring-training ballparks on the edges.
For rooms, parking, and check-in questions, the property itself is the source — see Fountain Cottages Inn’s official page.
Courtesy wait time is included on every booking:
For a clean, surprise-free total, here is what stays outside the quoted price:
Every booking gets its own vehicle and chauffeur — a superior service built around your sailing, not a pooled shuttle making the rounds.
Count on roughly 159–170 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.
For the whole vehicle. The flat rate above covers your entire group one way — it does not increase per passenger.
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.
For dawn embarkations or late-night returns, a modest after-hours amount applies:
An app assigns whoever is nearby, in whatever car they drive, at whatever the surge says. A reservation assigns a specific vehicle to your group at a fixed fare, staged for your ship’s arrival — a different product for a morning when everyone leaves at once.
After a week at sea, certainty beats convenience-on-demand: the reservation carries a built-in wait window, luggage help at the curb, and a driver who has run these terminals hundreds of times.

Send the date, group size, and your ship and we confirm the vehicle to Fountain Cottages Inn with the pickup staged around your arrival.
Message first rather than calling — we are often mid-service with other clients and answer texts fastest.

Curbside pickup is our main approach. Just message us your exit gate and the driver will roll up within minutes — typically quicker than the classic sign-holding option.
Should you rather have the driver wait in the terminal holding a sign with your name, we can set that up too for $20
The day before your ride, we’ll message you the driver’s name, the vehicle model, and its license plate, plus step-by-step curbside pickup directions.
No need to stress. We’ll message you the moment your flight touches down. If we don’t hear back quickly, the driver will automatically make his way to the international arrivals hall. Wait there and we’ll locate you; we never leave anyone stranded.

On international flights, the courtesy window stretches to 120 minutes.
For hotel pickups, there’s a 15-minute grace window.

This is uncommon, given that two complimentary hours of waiting are already built in. If you remain inside the airport past that point, the ride can be treated as a no-show. You may also ask for more waiting time, priced at US$ 30 for every additional 30-minute block, paid in cash straight to the driver.
