From $505 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Beachouse Lodge in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full trip one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
Give us the flight number and the driver plans the pickup around the actual arrival. The greeting at the MIA arrivals curb is included; a name-sign welcome inside the terminal is a $20 add-on. Bags go in, doors close, and the vehicle leaves for the destination without sharing the ride with anyone else.
Beachouse Lodge is your destination in Bokeelia, a small, easygoing community set along Florida’s southwest coast. It is a quiet corner of the state, well away from the pace of the city you leave behind at the airport, and reaching it means a long, steady run down the highway rather than a quick hop across town. That distance is part of the appeal: by the time you arrive, the busy terminal feels like another world, and the calm of the coast has taken over.
Our part of the trip ends right at Beachouse Lodge itself. Wherever the property sits within Bokeelia, the driver takes you straight to the door, so there is no second leg to arrange and no local ride to sort out once you are in the area. You step out of the vehicle where you are actually staying, luggage in hand, ready to check in and settle into the reason you made the trip in the first place.
For anything about the rooms, the grounds, or what the stay itself includes, Beachouse Lodge keeps its own official page, and that is the place to look. The transfer is our side of the trip: one reserved vehicle, a flat per-vehicle price that covers your whole group, and a door-to-door ride from the airport to Bokeelia. Book it ahead, and the car is waiting for you the moment you land.
From the arrivals level at MIA, the driver is already waiting when you clear the terminal, so the trip begins the moment you are ready. Your bags go into the vehicle, everyone climbs in, and the car pulls away as a single leg out of the city. The route runs largely along I-75, covering about 177.9 miles between the airport and Beachouse Lodge, with no transfers and no lines to stand in along the way.
Plan on roughly 177 to 188 minutes door to door, depending on the time of day and how traffic is moving. It is a long drive, and a private car makes it an easy one: you keep your own space the whole way, set the pace, and ride only with your own group. Because the pickup follows your actual arrival, a delayed or early flight simply shifts the start time, and the driver adjusts it for you at no extra cost.
The car waits for you, not the other way around. Your group travels together with the luggage in the same vehicle, the fare is known before the ride, and the driver takes the direct route to the destination.
You pay a 50% deposit online to hold the vehicle, then the balance directly to the driver on the day, in cash or by card. The one-way fare above is the whole amount.
Late is fine: the SUV night fee is $20 in Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 outside them for pickups between 9 PM and 7 AM. A stop on the route runs $45 per 30 minutes, and a child seat is $20.
Up to five people ride in the SUV; larger parties move to a 6-to-9 or 10-to-14 passenger van so everyone and every bag travels together in one vehicle.
Details such as an extra passenger or a child seat can be adjusted up to 12 hours before the pickup. The date itself is fixed once booked, so double-check it before you confirm.
Questions or ready to reserve? WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 and we take it from there.
Reserving a few days ahead is ideal, and in peak season (holidays, spring break, big cruise weekends) a week or more keeps your first-choice vehicle available. Requests inside 24 hours are welcome but depend on availability, and those bookings are non-refundable once confirmed.
We run on reservations rather than on-demand pickups. A same-day request may still work if a driver is free: message us on WhatsApp with the pickup time and we will confirm quickly. Keep in mind that a ride booked within 24 hours of pickup cannot be refunded.
No. A 50% deposit holds the vehicle when you book online, and the other half goes to your driver on the day of the ride, in cash or by card. If you prefer to settle everything at once, choose Pay in full at checkout.
Yes. After the deposit, the remaining half is paid directly to your driver when the ride is done, cash or card, whichever you prefer. There is nothing else to pay unless you added an extra service.
Cancellations are free up to 24 hours before the pickup. Inside that 24-hour window the ride is non-refundable, and no-shows are treated the same way. Booking details such as an extra passenger or a child seat can still be updated until 12 hours before pickup.
The pickup time and other details can be adjusted until 12 hours before the ride, subject to driver availability; write to us as soon as your plans change. The travel date itself is fixed once booked, so double-check it before you confirm.
Payments run through Stripe over an encrypted checkout; we never see your card number. Card payments carry a 3% processing fee that is shown before you pay. Zelle is also accepted for the deposit with no fee: ask us on WhatsApp.
Not at all. Travelers reserve from all over the world, international cards are accepted at checkout, and we answer on WhatsApp and email in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Yes. Give us the flight number when you book and your driver tracks it in real time, so the pickup follows the actual landing rather than the scheduled one, at no extra cost.
Message us the moment you know. We reschedule around the new arrival whenever a driver is available; because that counts as a change to the booking, the cancellation terms above still apply if the ride cannot be rebooked.
Your driver meets you at the MIA arrivals level at the curb, and that meet-and-greet is included in the fare. If you would rather be greeted inside the terminal with a name sign, add the name-sign welcome for $20 when you book.
You receive the meeting instructions in advance, and the driver contacts you the day before the ride to confirm every detail. On landing, head to the agreed curb; connect to the airport Wi-Fi and message us on WhatsApp if anything is unclear.
The day before the ride we send the driver’s name and phone number, and the vehicle details you need to spot the car. Vehicle photos on the site show the category booked; the exact model can vary.
Call or WhatsApp us at +1 (786) 682-8748 and we connect you right away. The pickup is always coordinated at the confirmed spot, and the courtesy waiting time keeps running from your landing or your scheduled pickup.
At the airport we wait up to 60 minutes after landing on domestic flights and up to 2 hours on international arrivals; at hotels, homes and the cruise port the courtesy wait is 15 minutes. Beyond that, waiting is billed like an extra stop, $45 per 30 minutes.
The distance and the usual driving time for this exact route are listed on this page. Real timing depends on traffic and the hour, which is why the driver plans the pickup around your actual landing or ship arrival rather than a fixed clock time.
Yes. Your driver loads and unloads every bag at the curb. Drivers do not go inside the hotel or terminal to collect luggage, so have it with you at the meeting point.
Each passenger can bring one large suitcase plus one carry-on. The black SUV carries up to 5 passengers as long as passengers plus large suitcases total 10 or fewer; larger groups or extra bags move to a van. Surfboards, bikes or many extra cases need a custom setup, so tell us before booking.
Yes. Add them when you book: a child seat for babies and toddlers up to about 3 years, or a booster for ages 3 to 5. Each seat is $20 and is fitted before the driver leaves for the pickup.
Planned stops are fine when you add them at booking, priced at $45 per 30 minutes with a 30-minute minimum, then $1.50 per extra minute. Unplanned detours on the day are not part of the fare.
Never. Every transfer is private: the vehicle carries only your group, door to door, with no other pickups and no waiting for strangers.
A black SUV for up to 5 passengers, a van for 6 to 9 and a larger van for 10 to 14. The fare table on this page shows the price for each. For groups above 14 we arrange several vehicles or a minibus on a custom quote.
No. We pick up and drop off at Miami International Airport, PortMiami and the other cruise terminals, hotels, private homes, offices and event venues across South Florida and beyond.
Yes. Wedding parties, corporate groups and private events get a tailored quote with the right mix of vehicles; message us with the date, head count and schedule.
Between 9 PM and 7 AM the black SUV adds a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 farther out. The fee is shown in the quote before you book, and daytime rides carry no surcharge.
The fare shown is for the exact route named on this page. For a different pickup or drop-off address, use the ride search on this site: it prices the real road distance instantly and lets you book on the spot.
The fare includes the driver, fuel and tolls, with no hidden fees. Only optional items add to it: the 3% card fee, a name-sign welcome, child seats, extra stops or the night fee, each shown in the quote before you pay. Tipping is at your discretion.
The two of us landed at MIA for a getaway and had a driver waiting the moment we reached arrivals. The driver took care of the suitcases so we didn’t have to struggle with anything after the flight.
Nós dois pousamos em MIA de férias e tínhamos um motorista esperando assim que chegamos aos desembarques. Acompanharam o voo, então mesmo chegando atrasado, o carro estava pronto.
Flying into Miami solo, I wasn’t up for the taxi line after a long flight, so I booked a private ride to Beachouse Lodge. Traveling on my own, I felt safe and looked after from arrivals all the way to Beachouse Lodge. Honestly the smoothest part of my whole trip — everything was handled from the second I landed.
I landed at MIA late and it was so nice to have a private car already waiting for me. Landing after midnight, it was so reassuring to have a private car already waiting instead of hunting for a ride.
Traveling with our two kids, I was NOT about to wrangle a taxi at MIA, so I booked a private van to Beachouse Lodge. With the kids worn out from the flight, it helped that the driver was so easygoing and had the child seat ready. They kept an eye on the flight, so even though we landed late, the car was right there.
