Luxury Transportation in Lighthouse Point, FL

Rodlymo’s lighthouse point car service starts with a fact most visitors don’t expect: The lighthouse the city is named for is not in the city. Hillsboro Inlet Light stands across the Intracoastal in the Town of Hillsboro Beach. Lighthouse Point looks at it, which is how it got the name.

What Lighthouse Point actually is, is a mainland city built almost entirely on canals cut in the 1950s and 1960s. In fact, it has ocean access through Hillsboro Inlet. Indeed, most homes here have water at the back. As a result, a good share of our work starts at a dock rather than a driveway.

Rodlymo’s lighthouse point car service keeps every ride in Lighthouse Point simple, on time, and consistent.

Lighthouse Point Car Service – Distances, and No Bridge to Cross

  • FLL — roughly 20 miles. Plan 30 to 50 minutes.
  • Port Everglades — roughly 21 miles. Plan 35 to 55 minutes, longer on a cruise turnaround morning.
  • PBI (formerly Palm Beach International, still PBI to most travelers) — roughly 32 miles. Plan 40 to 65 minutes.
  • MIA — roughly 42 miles. Plan 55 to 85 minutes.

Lighthouse Point sits on the mainland. So unlike its neighbors across the water, there is no drawbridge on any inbound route. US-1 runs north to south through the city and I-95 is reached at Copans Road, Sample Road or Hillsboro Boulevard. That makes departure timing here far more predictable than in the beach towns opposite.

PBI is closer than MIA and often calmer. For a morning departure it is frequently the better airport. We will say so rather than defaulting to Fort Lauderdale.

The Marina and the Yacht Club

PORT 32 Lighthouse Point on Marina Circle takes vessels up to eighty feet. It has a fuel dock and a Clean Marina designation. The Nauti Dawg restaurant also sits on the property. The Lighthouse Point Yacht Club, private and founded in 1961, is the other pole of the city’s boating life. In fact, it is currently the subject of a substantial redevelopment.

Marina work is a real category for us. Marina work here includes owner arrivals, crew rotations, and broker and technician transfers between hotels and the docks. Each trip calls for punctuality, discretion, and a chauffeur who does not need the layout explained twice.

Cap's Place

Cap’s Place is an island restaurant reachable only by boat. It opened in 1928 as Club Unique and has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1990. Indeed, there is no road to the door.

What there is, is a mainland dock on Northeast 28th Court where the restaurant’s own launch collects guests. That dock is where we drop you and where we collect you afterwards. Any driver who says he will take you to Cap’s Place directly has never been.

Marina & Yacht Owner Transfers

Owner arrivals, crew rotations and broker movements between FLL, PBI and the docks — discretion comes standard, not as an add-on.

Cap's Place Dock Transfers

Drop-off and pickup at the mainland launch dock on Northeast 28th Court, timed to the restaurant’s own boat.

Port Everglades Cruise Transfers

Roughly 21 miles out, with extra time built in for cruise turnaround mornings at the port.

No Hotel Inside the City Limits

There is no hotel or resort inside Lighthouse Point. Guests stay in Deerfield Beach, Pompano Beach or Boca Raton, all a short run away. Then they are driven in for dinner or to meet a boat.

Combined with the canal-front housing, that makes our work here heavily residential and heavily seasonal. This means winter residents arriving and departing, guests brought in for an evening, and airport runs booked well ahead.

Dinner Runs to Deerfield Beach & Boca Raton

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Hillsboro Inlet Light is across the Intracoastal in the Town of Hillsboro Beach, on the north side of the inlet. In fact, the city is named for the view, not for the structure. It is also not reachable by car from anywhere.

Not to the restaurant, because there is no road to it. We take you to the mainland dock on Northeast 28th Court, where the restaurant’s own launch collects you. Then we are there when the launch brings you back.

Yes. Owner arrivals, crew rotations, brokers and technicians between FLL, PBI, hotels and the docks are regular bookings. Instead, discretion comes with the service rather than as an extra.

PBI is closer from Lighthouse Point than MIA and is often the calmer run. In fact, between FLL and PBI it depends on your airline and time of day. Send us the flight and we will give you an honest recommendation.
