Hollywood is the only city in Broward County that touches both a major international airport and the cruise port. FLL borders it — the airport carries Hollywood’s name for a reason — and part of Port Everglades sits inside Hollywood’s own city limits.
For a chauffeur service that is not trivia. It means the two highest-value trip types in South Florida both start or end a few minutes from a Hollywood address.
Rodlymo is veteran-owned and runs this corridor daily.

Port Everglades Cruise Transfers
Port Everglades moved 4.77 million cruise guests in fiscal 2025 across nine cruise lines and forty ships — one of the three or four busiest cruise homeports in the world, and up sixteen percent year over year.
Because it is a homeport rather than a port of call, weekend mornings are a simultaneous surge: thousands debarking while thousands more board. That is the constraint that actually governs your morning, not the distance, which is only about five miles from Hollywood Beach.
The three patterns we run most:
- FLL to a Hollywood Beach hotel, then to the port the next morning. The pre-cruise night is the smart play, and Hollywood is the right place to spend it.
- FLL straight to the terminal, same day. The airport is 1.8 miles from the port.
- Port to MIA or DJT (formerly Palm Beach International, still PBI to most travellers) for guests flying home from a different airport — 24 miles and 52 miles respectively, and the trips where having a real vehicle and a real chauffeur pays for itself.
Terminal assignments rotate by season and by ship. Give us your ship and sail date and we confirm the terminal rather than guessing.
FLL Is Genuinely Minutes Away
FLL borders three cities — Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood and Dania Beach. Hollywood is the only one of those three with a seven-mile beachfront and a full resort district.
From most Hollywood addresses the airport is roughly six to seven miles and ten to fifteen minutes. We still build a buffer, because the drawbridge on Hollywood Boulevard and the Broadwalk hotel district both have their own rhythms — but this is the shortest airport run in our service area, and pricing reflects it.
The Broadwalk — Why Drop-Off Here Is a Skill
Hollywood’s beachfront is not a highway. The Broadwalk is a two-and-a-half-mile pedestrian promenade running from Jefferson Street to Sherman Street, built by the city’s founder in 1923 and named a Great Public Space by the American Planning Association.
Guests cannot pull up to the door of a Broadwalk hotel and self-park. Every arrival there is a coordinated drop at the nearest vehicle access point, with luggage handled from there. Our chauffeurs know which cross streets work for which properties. It is a small thing that turns into a large thing at 6 AM with four suitcases.
Seminole Hard Rock — Concerts, Casino and Poker
The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino at 1 Seminole Way puts 1,200-plus hotel rooms, a 7,000-seat arena at Hard Rock Live, a 140,000-square-foot casino floor and two nightclubs on a single campus that never closes.
That produces exactly the trips people should not be driving themselves: late-night casino returns, concert nights, and the multi-week poker series that bring players in from out of state and overseas needing repeat airport runs.
One accuracy note we take seriously — the resort sits on the Seminole Tribe’s Hollywood Reservation, sovereign land, not in downtown Hollywood. We tell chauffeurs and clients the same thing, because the two are four miles and one very different set of directions apart.
Beach Resorts and Group Work
The Signia by Hilton Diplomat Beach Resort carries a thousand rooms and more than 200,000 square feet of event space, including a 50,000-square-foot Great Hall. Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort adds 369 rooms and 30,000 square feet.
Between them, Hollywood supports genuine conference and group business — VIP arrivals, dine-around shuttles, and multi-vehicle movements. We handle these as coordinated manifests, not as a stack of separate bookings.
Five miles north, the 801-room Omni Fort Lauderdale opened at the expanded convention center in December 2025, which has pushed additional group demand into Hollywood’s hotels.
Downtown Hollywood, and the Neighborhoods
Downtown Hollywood around Young Circle is a genuine second core — ArtsPark, the third-Saturday ArtWalk, the largest walkable mural project in Broward County, and the Art and Culture Center on Harrison Street. It runs on a 1920s street grid with three traffic circles on Hollywood Boulevard, which is charming to look at and worth knowing about before you drive it.
Residentially we serve Hollywood Lakes, Emerald Hills, Harbor Islands, Hollywood Hills and the North and South Beach districts for standing airport, golf and event accounts.
The Quebec Season on the Broadwalk
Hollywood Beach is the documented center of Quebec’s winter migration to Florida — enough that a French-language magazine prints tens of thousands of copies a month through the season and a local agency books cruise cabins by the hundred.
For us that means the shape of the winter changes here. From roughly January through March the Broadwalk hotels and the small beachfront condominiums fill with long-stay visitors rather than weekenders, and the work becomes recurring rather than one-off — the same guest, the same cruise terminal, the same airport, several times across a season.

Quick Answer

Frequently Asked Questions
How early should I leave Hollywood for a cruise at Port Everglades?
Ninety minutes door to terminal on a Saturday or Sunday. The distance is short; the turnaround-day congestion is not.
Can you meet a cruise ship and take us to MIA?
Yes. Port to MIA is roughly 24 miles and one of our more common Hollywood bookings, because guests frequently sail from Fort Lauderdale and fly out of Miami.
How long is the trip from Hollywood to FLL?
Usually ten to fifteen minutes, around six to seven miles from most Hollywood addresses. It is the shortest airport transfer we run.
Where do you pick up at a Broadwalk hotel?
The Broadwalk is pedestrian-only, so we use the nearest vehicle access street to your property and handle luggage from there. Tell us the hotel and we will tell you exactly where to stand.
Do you serve Seminole Hard Rock late at night?
Yes, including after-concert and late casino returns. The property runs 24 hours and so do we, with advance booking.
Does the winter season change how far ahead I should book?
Yes, noticeably. From January through March the Broadwalk fills with long-stay winter visitors and the cruise calendar is at its heaviest, so Saturday and Sunday mornings book out first. A week of notice is comfortable in season; in the summer a day or two is usually fine.
