From Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB)
Sanford (SFB) is a secondary airport about 31–32 miles from the resort; driving time is roughly 45–50 minutes depending on traffic and route.
Because SFB is farther away, most travelers arriving there use rental cars, prebooked private transfers, or shuttle services that operate between SFB and Orlando-area hotels.
- Rideshare / taxi: available at SFB but expect a longer fare and ride time compared with MCO.
- Private shuttle or limo: useful for groups or when you require a meet-and-greet service.
- Rental car: practical if you plan multiple stops or need flexibility during your stay.
| Mode | Why choose it |
|---|---|

| Private transfer | Prebook for fixed pickup times and larger groups |
| Rental car | Best for flexibility and visiting multiple Orlando attractions |
