Black Car Service to Siesta Key Palms Resort

On Stickney Point Road at the mainland end of the Siesta Key bridge — close enough to the white sand to be worth it, and on the right side of a drawbridge that can add twenty minutes without warning.

The Bridge

Stickney Point has a drawbridge, and it opens.

Siesta Key Palms Resort — formerly the Elephant Ear Suites — sits on Stickney Point Road beside the southern bridge onto Siesta Key. It is a good location precisely because it is off the key: cheaper, quieter, and not trapped behind the traffic that clogs the island in season.

The Stickney Point bridge is a drawbridge. When it opens for a boat, everything stops, and on a busy Saturday that is a twenty-minute delay nobody planned for. We build margin into airport departures rather than discovering the bridge is up with an hour to go.

  • Drawbridge margin built into departures
  • Alternative routing via the northern bridge
  • Beach drops at Siesta Key public access
  • Agreed collection times, movable on the day

02 / Siesta Key Without the Car Park

The famous sand, and the famously bad parking.

Siesta Key Beach has some of the finest sand in Florida and a public car park that fills by mid-morning for most of the season. Circling it, then walking a long way in the heat, is how the day starts badly.

A drop at the beach access and a collection at an agreed time avoids both. Siesta Village in the evening is the same argument: a short run, no parking, and no driving back over the bridge afterwards.

Siesta Village at night

A short run onto the key and back. Being collected means the drawbridge is the driver's problem, not yours.

The Car & the Chauffeur

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

Every Siesta Key Palms Resort 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 Siesta Key Palms Resort.

FAQ

Siesta Key Palms Resort Black Car Service — FAQ

Do you provide black car service to Siesta Key Palms Resort?
Yes. We run chauffeured black car transfers to and from Siesta Key Palms Resort on Stickney Point Road — SRQ airport transfers, beach drops and collections, Siesta Village evenings and day trips across Sarasota.
Was this hotel called something else?
It previously traded as the Elephant Ear Suites and now operates as Siesta Key Palms Resort. We confirmed the current name before publishing this page and dispatch to the Stickney Point Road address either way.
Does the drawbridge affect journey times?
Yes, and it is the thing to plan around. The Stickney Point bridge opens for boat traffic and can add twenty minutes without warning on a busy day. We build margin into airport departures and will route via the northern bridge when that is faster.
How far is SRQ?
Roughly 20 minutes in normal conditions, with TPA at about an hour and a quarter. Both are approximations, and the bridge is the variable on the Siesta side.
Can you drop us at Siesta Key Beach and collect us later?
Yes, and it is the best reason to book here. The public car park fills by mid-morning in season, so a drop at the beach access and a collection at an agreed time avoids both the circling and the long walk back.
