A private cruise transfer to or from Port of Miami and Budgetel Inn & Suites runs about 36.2 miles in 51–67 minutes via Florida’s Turnpike, at a flat rate from $140 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.
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 Budgetel Inn & Suites, no stops.
Your driver follows Florida’s Turnpike for the 36.2-mile hop and drops the group at the entrance, bags carried to the curb beside you.
Guests here often fit in the Pompano Beach Fishing Pier and Deerfield Beach Pier once they land ashore, with the Pompano Beach Amphitheater and Quiet Waters Park also nearby in Pompano & Deerfield Beach.
Reserving is simple: half now, half on the day, and a fair cancellation window.
With Pompano & Deerfield Beach right on the coast, a beach afternoon after the cruise is the natural next move — drop the bags at Budgetel Inn & Suites and walk to the water.
Families come off the ships every week — the car seat side is handled:
Pompano and Deerfield Beach share renovated piers, calm family beaches, and a fishing culture that never left the north Broward coast.
Choose by headcount and luggage — every option is private and runs direct between the terminals and Budgetel Inn & Suites.
It feels closer to riding with friends than hailing a car — better service, personal and organized, with the vehicle reserved for your group alone.
Budget 51 to 67 minutes between Port of Miami and Budgetel Inn & Suites, depending on the hour.
Traffic on Florida’s Turnpike 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.
Courtesy wait time is included on every booking:
The flat rate is honest because its edges are clear — these are not included:
For the whole vehicle. The flat rate above covers your entire group one way — it does not increase per passenger.
Roughly 51 to 67 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.
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.
