A private transfer to or from MIA and Pelican Bay covers 125.4 miles (201.8 km) in about 121 to 137 minutes door to door, at a flat rate from $350 per vehicle. Your bilingual driver runs the journey largely along I-75 north out of Miami in a black SUV or a climate-controlled private van, straight to your Naples address.
The flat rate depends only on your vehicle size, not the number of passengers or when you book:
Daytime hours run 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM with no surcharge. Trips that begin outside that window carry a small night surcharge:
The most direct way is a private door-to-door transfer booked ahead: one driver, one vehicle, straight to your Pelican Bay address with no transfers and no waiting on other riders. Start by choosing the vehicle that fits your party — a black SUV for up to 5, a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van for 6 to 9, or a larger private van for 10 to 14. Booking takes a single message on WhatsApp or email with your flight number, pickup time, and drop-off address. We confirm availability, then text your driver’s name, vehicle make, and license plate the day before, along with curbside pickup instructions. On the day, your driver meets you at the curb, helps load your bags, and drives the full route north to Naples. You settle in and let the highway miles pass — the whole trip is arranged as one booking, so there is nothing to sort out along the way.
Pelican Bay is an upscale, master-planned residential community on the Gulf coast in Naples, Florida. Its character is quiet, green, and coastal: mangrove preserves, boardwalks, and a stretch of private beach set the tone, with resort-style tennis, golf, and dining tucked among the neighborhoods. Visitors come for the calm, the racquet and beach clubs, and the walkable luxury shopping and restaurants at the district’s edge, where high-end retail meets Gulf-view patios. The Pelican Bay Foundation community site is the best place to read about the amenities, beach access, and member facilities that define the area. Whether you are arriving for a seasonal stay, a family visit, or a business trip, a private transfer drops you directly at your residence, club, or rental address, so the last mile is as easy as the highway miles before it.
Pelican Bay sits along Naples’ northern Gulf-front stretch, near the wider North Naples area and its beach districts. Because we run a private door-to-door transfer, we take you to any specific address you give — a residence, a club, or a vacation rental — anywhere within and around the community, not just a single central drop point.
The draw is the Gulf shoreline: private beach access, mangrove boardwalks, tennis and golf, plus upscale shopping and waterfront dining at the district’s edge. Days here lean outdoors and unhurried. Your driver can drop you at the beach tram, the shopping district, or your dinner reservation as part of the arrival, at no detour to a shared route.
These are the questions travelers ask most about the run between the airport and Naples’ Pelican Bay.
Nothing changes on your end. Your driver tracks the inbound flight in real time and re-times the curbside pickup at no extra cost when you are delayed or land early. Courtesy waiting already covers 2 hours for international arrivals and 1 hour for domestic, so a normal delay is built in and you will not lose your driver.
Your driver waits curbside, ready when you exit with your bags — the included pickup is at the curb, not inside. If you would rather be met at the terminal with a name sign, that in-terminal meet-and-greet is an optional paid add-on. The day before, we text the driver’s name, vehicle, and plate so you know exactly who to find.
The fare is per vehicle, not per person — your whole group rides for the one flat price shown above, whether it is two of you or a full van. A round trip is simply double the one-way fare, booked as a single reservation with both legs locked in at the time you reserve.
Yes. This is a private point-to-point car service between Miami International and Pelican Bay in Naples, run in a black SUV or a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van with a bilingual driver. You get a single named driver and a flat rate — not a shared or scheduled ride — straight to your exact address.
Yes, we operate 24/7, year-round, with over 5 years running this route. Trips inside 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM have no surcharge; those outside carry the small night surcharge above. Book at least 24 hours ahead; shorter-notice requests are reviewed manually, though availability is not guaranteed on that timeline.
Yes. For groups we use a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van seating 6 to 9 or 10 to 14 passengers, so everyone rides together in one reserved vehicle rather than splitting up. Tell us the head count and total bags when you book and we match the right van to your party.
A more coordinated, premium service — flat fare, named driver, flight-tracked pickup — at a significantly lower total cost than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

The flat fare already covers the essentials of the drive. Tolls, SunPass, and fuel are built into the rate, so nothing is added for the highway itself. Onboard WiFi runs through a mobile hotspot, and sealed bottled water is available on board. Your driver helps load and unload luggage at both ends. The standard luggage allowance is one checked bag plus one carry-on per passenger; if you are traveling with extra or oversized bags, message us on WhatsApp in advance and we confirm the space or size you up to a larger van. Courtesy waiting is included — 2 hours for international arrivals, 1 hour for domestic arrivals, and 15 minutes for hotel or residence pickups — and your pickup is re-timed at no charge if the flight is delayed or lands early. An in-terminal meet-and-greet with a name sign is an optional paid add-on if you would rather be met inside the terminal.
A few things sit outside the flat rate. Card or payment-link transactions add a 4% bank fee. Trips outside daytime hours carry a night surcharge, detailed below. Additional waiting past the courtesy window is billed in 30-minute blocks. Unscheduled stops are not included, though a short stop arranged in advance can usually be accommodated. Gratuity is optional and always appreciated.
Small pets are welcome with advance notice on WhatsApp and must ride in a pet carrier. For children, the first child seat for a child under 5 is free; each additional seat carries a small extra fee confirmed when you book. Tell us the ages and seat count ahead of time so the right setup is ready in your vehicle.
Door to door, the ride runs about 121 to 137 minutes, off-peak to peak. Off-peak — mid-morning or early afternoon on a clear day — you can expect the lower end, close to two hours flat. Peak windows around Miami rush hour and holiday weekends push the trip toward 137 minutes, since traffic building on I-75 north is the main variable on a route this long. The distance itself does not change; only the congestion does. Weather along the Gulf side and construction near the interchanges can add a little more time. Because this is a long-distance transfer, one short comfort stop for a restroom or snack can be arranged on route if you ask your driver ahead of time. Building a small buffer into your pickup time keeps everything relaxed, especially if you have a dinner reservation or a check-in waiting for you in Naples.
Every trip is a private ride reserved for your group only — no pooling, no detours to collect strangers along the way. The fare is a flat rate locked when you book, so the price you agree to is the price you pay, regardless of traffic or demand. Your driver is bilingual, speaking English plus Spanish or Portuguese, and tracks your inbound flight so the curbside pickup lines up with your real landing time, not the scheduled one. Drivers help load and unload your bags at both ends, and the day before the trip we text the driver’s name, vehicle make, and license plate with clear pickup instructions. You reach us directly on WhatsApp for any change — a later pickup, an extra bag, a question about your drop-off — and a real person answers. That direct line and a single named driver are what make a two-hour run to Naples feel genuinely handled.
Pick the vehicle that matches your group size; every option is private and reserved for you alone.
Payment is split so you are never covering everything up front. We accept Venmo, Zelle, or a secure payment link; full cash payment at pickup is not accepted, though card and link payments carry the bank fee noted above. For a pickup on the Miami side — the main direction of this route — a 50% deposit confirms your booking and the remaining 50% can be paid to the driver on the trip day, cash accepted. Some reverse-direction pickups from farther areas are asked to pay in full ahead of time; we tell you which applies when you book. A round trip is simply double the one-way fare, booked as one reservation with both legs locked in. Cancel with 24 or more hours notice for a full refund; inside 24 hours of pickup the booking is non-refundable.
Send your flight number, pickup date and time, group size, and Pelican Bay drop-off address, and we will confirm your vehicle and lock the flat rate. Message us on WhatsApp for the fastest reply, or email to reserve your private transfer to or from MIA and Pelican Bay.
