Black Car Service to Legacy Hotel at IMG Academy

On Bollettieri Boulevard, a few hundred metres from the IMG Academy campus. The guests are athletes, the parents of athletes, coaching staff and recruiters — and almost all of them are working to a fixture list rather than a holiday.

A Fixture List, Not an Itinerary

The schedule belongs to the tournament.

Legacy Hotel sits on the IMG Academy campus edge on Bollettieri Boulevard, which makes it the default for families visiting student athletes, teams in for tournaments, and college coaches on recruiting trips. What they all share is that the timetable is set by someone else.

That means transport gets scheduled around sessions and matches rather than around convenience: an early airport run because the first match is at eight, a collection after a final that may or may not go long, a coach who needs to be at a second venue the same afternoon.

  • Pickups scheduled around session and match times
  • Flexible collection when a fixture overruns
  • Multi-venue days for coaches and scouts
  • GMC Yukon SUV for kit and luggage

02 / Young Athletes Travelling

Students who fly in alone need the arrival to be certain.

A meaningful share of arrivals here are teenagers flying in without a parent — a boarding student returning for term, or a junior in for a tournament. The family booking the car is usually several time zones away and wants to know the pickup will simply happen.

We meet unaccompanied young travellers inside the terminal rather than at a kerb, confirm to the booking contact when the passenger is in the vehicle, and confirm again on arrival at the hotel. Tell us at booking if that is the arrangement so it is set up properly rather than improvised.

Two airports, two very different runs

SRQ is roughly 15–20 minutes. TPA is about an hour north, and it is where most of the cheaper long-haul fares land — worth deciding deliberately rather than by price alone.

The Island, on a Rest Day

Anna Maria is twenty minutes west.

Families in Bradenton for a fortnight of tournaments generally want one day that is not about sport. Anna Maria Island — Coquina Beach, Bradenton Beach, the pier at Anna Maria City — is roughly twenty minutes west over the Manatee Avenue bridge.

Parking on the island in season is limited and the bridge queues on a Saturday afternoon. A drop and an agreed collection removes both, and the day stays a rest day.

  • Coquina Beach and Bradenton Beach access
  • Manatee Avenue bridge timing accounted for
  • Sarasota and the Ringling on longer breaks

The Car & the Chauffeur

A detailed sedan or SUV, and a chauffeur who waits.

Every Legacy Hotel at IMG Academy transfer runs in a Mercedes-Benz E 350 sedan or a GMC Yukon SUV, cleaned before it leaves and driven by a chauffeur in coat and tie. Flights are tracked against the actual landing rather than the schedule, so a delay moves the pickup instead of costing you the car, and the driver meets you rather than texting a plate number from a garage.

  • Mercedes-Benz E 350 sedan — up to 3 passengers
  • GMC Yukon SUV — up to 6 passengers and luggage
  • Flight tracked; wait time built into airport pickups
  • One dispatch desk for multi-car and multi-day movements

Max Luxury Limo is an independent chauffeur company. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or a preferred provider for Legacy Hotel at IMG Academy.

FAQ

Legacy Hotel at IMG Academy Black Car Service — FAQ

Do you provide black car service to Legacy Hotel at IMG Academy?
Yes. We run chauffeured black car transfers to and from Legacy Hotel at IMG Academy on Bollettieri Boulevard — SRQ and TPA airport transfers, tournament and recruiting travel, multi-venue days for coaches, and Anna Maria Island rest-day trips.
Can you collect a student travelling alone from the airport?
Yes. We meet unaccompanied young travellers inside the terminal rather than at a kerb, confirm to the booking contact once the passenger is in the vehicle, and confirm again on arrival at the hotel. Tell us at booking so it is set up properly in advance.
Which airport should we use?
SRQ is roughly 15 to 20 minutes away and much the easier arrival. TPA is about an hour north and carries most of the cheaper long-haul fares. Both work — the point is to choose deliberately rather than discover the difference on the day.
What if a match runs long and we miss the collection time?
Move it. Fixtures overrun and we would far rather adjust the pickup than have you leave a final early. Give the chauffeur or dispatch a call and the time shifts.
Can you take us to Anna Maria Island on a rest day?
Yes — it is roughly twenty minutes west over the Manatee Avenue bridge. Island parking is limited in season and the bridge queues at weekends, so a drop at Coquina or Bradenton Beach with an agreed collection is the easier way to do it.
