Ride private to or from Port of Miami and Waterstone Resorts & Vac Home: roughly 153.5 miles, 157–168 minutes by I-595, reserved ahead at a flat rate from $350 per vehicle. One group per vehicle, a bilingual chauffeur, and a pickup staged for your ship’s arrival — never a shared shuttle.
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 Waterstone Resorts & Vac Home, no stops.
From the pier it is one run along I-595 — about 153.5 miles — ending at the door of Waterstone Resorts & Vac Home.
Hotel pickups happen at the lobby door at the agreed hour. Terminal pickups are timed to disembarkation, with half an hour of free waiting so customs lines never cost you the ride.
Reserving is simple: half now, half on the day, and a fair cancellation window.
the downtown River District and JetBlue Park sit within easy reach of the stay, with Hammond Stadium and the Caloosahatchee River also nearby in Fort Myers.
Every booking gets its own vehicle and chauffeur — a better experience built around your sailing, not a pooled shuttle making the rounds.
The trip normally runs 157–168 minutes for the 153.5-mile route.
Disembarkation mornings stack up fast at the terminal exits; your driver is staged before you clear the hall, so the wait is theirs, not yours, and I-595 does the rest.
The flat rate is honest because its edges are clear — these are not included:
The fare includes complimentary waiting:
Families come off the ships every week — the car seat side is handled:
The Edison & Ford estates and a revived riverfront downtown give Fort Myers its character, with spring-training ballparks on the edges.
Whatever the group size, the vehicle is exclusively yours for the run from the port.
The rhythm of arrival day is simple: clear the terminal, bags to the curb, one direct ride to Waterstone Resorts & Vac Home — no shuttle line, no luggage-drag across the port.
Roughly 157 to 168 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.

Yes — book both legs together (each priced at the flat one-way rate) and the return pickup is scheduled for your sailing date.
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.
