A private cruise transfer to or from Port of Miami and The Westin Beach Resort & Spa runs about 31.3 miles in 54–71 minutes via I-95, at a flat rate from $175 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.
Skip the taxi line and the luggage-on-the-sidewalk scramble — reserve a reserved black SUV in advance and the terminal pickup is planned around your ship, not around app availability.
From the pier it is one run along I-95 — about 31.3 miles — ending at the door of The Westin Beach Resort & Spa.
Reserving is simple: half now, half on the day, and a fair cancellation window.
Staying at The Westin Beach Resort & Spa puts the shoreline steps away — plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they disembark.
If your itinerary includes MIA or FLL, ask for the airport leg when you message us: same vehicles, same flat pricing, one coordinated plan for the day.
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.
Child safety seats are part of the service:
Canals thread Fort Lauderdale from Las Olas to the Intracoastal — the Venice of America — and the beachfront promenade runs for miles.
Choose by headcount and luggage — every option is private and runs direct between the terminals and The Westin Beach Resort & Spa.
Every booking gets its own vehicle and chauffeur — a superior service built around your sailing, not a pooled shuttle making the rounds.
The trip normally runs 54–71 minutes for the 31.3-mile route.
Traffic on I-95 is the only variable, which is why the pickup follows your ship’s actual arrival with room to spare rather than a slot cut to the minute.
Every reservation carries free wait time:
A few things sit outside the fare, so you can plan for them:
For the whole vehicle. The flat rate above covers your entire group one way — it does not increase per passenger.
Roughly 54 to 71 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.
Ships sail on their own clock — pickups outside the 7:00 AM–9:00 PM window carry a small surcharge:
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.
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.

A short message with your travel date, party size, and cruise line is enough — we reply with the confirmed flat rate and the terminal pickup plan for The Westin Beach Resort & Spa.
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.

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.
