Transportation Orlando to Vero beach

[reed]

I'm going to the Vero Beach resort in February with a few friends. This is the first time I've gone there and I'm wondering about transportation from the Orlando Airport to Vero Beach. We'll rent a car when we get to Vero Beach but we'd like something that will take all of us with our luggage to the resort. Does anyone have suggestions or experience with this?
Thanks.

You best option would be to rent a car in Orlando and drive to VB. It's about a two hour trip each way and any local transportation company would probably charge quite a lot for that trip.

Definitely rent a car at the Orlando Airport. It is a very easy drive, smooth roads the entire way. Have a great time at Vero Beach! It's a beautiful resort. I was there exactly 1 year ago today!

Most of the time you'll find rentals are cheaper at airports too. You can stop at the grocery store on the way.

Renting a car is a must. There are a lot of resturants and beaches close by but sooo much easier when you have your own car.

We are planning a July trip to VB in July 2011. We are planning on renting a car at MCO. From Vero, we will be driving up to BWV.

I have heard that you can drop off your rental at the dolphin, I think that is Alamo. Is that correct? That would make it very easy and not require us to go return the car to MCO.

Another question, can we get ME one way when we leave to go from BWV back to the airport?

Thanks.

Yes, as long as you rent from Alamo or National and reserve the car with drop off specified to be at the Dolphin. Don't know the Alamo code for the Dolphin location, but the code for drop off location of the Dolphin is ORLR13. If you arrive after hours, you can drop off the car with the Dolphin valets - very easy. We've done it.

Yes. You just sign up for 1-way Magical Express. Easy to do by calling MS or on-line via the Members' website.

If they are going to charge you extra for a car drop off at Disneyworld, you can always drop the car back at the airport and take Magical Express to your hotel.

Thank you all. A car rental it will be to and from Vero beach.
