From $520 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Burnt Store Marina, flat rate and door to door across the state.
Every figure below buys the whole vehicle for your group, fixed the moment you reserve and untouched by traffic, weather, or how many people ride.
The driver follows your inbound flight in real time, so an early or late landing only shifts the meeting time — never the fare. Curbside greeting is part of the ride: once you clear the terminal and gather your bags, the driver is waiting at the arrivals lane. The night before, a message brings the driver’s name, the vehicle description, and the plate, along with exactly where to walk. Prefer to be met inside the terminal beside a name sign? That greeter is an optional add-on at $20. Bags go in and come out with the driver at both ends.
Burnt Store Marina sits along the calm inner waters of Charlotte Harbor, far down Florida’s Gulf-facing southwest coast and a full state away from the Miami side you leave behind. It is a residential boating community wrapped around one of the coast’s larger deep-water basins, where sailboats and powerboats fill the slips beneath a wide sweep of open water and mangrove. Daily life leans on golf, racquet sports, waterside dinners, and unhurried walks by the docks rather than any nightlife. To the north, Punta Gorda and the greater Charlotte Harbor area unfold in low, water-lined neighborhoods. Read more about the setting at the Burnt Store Marina community site or the area golf and country club.
The route runs 180.4 miles (290.2 km) and takes roughly 166 minutes off-peak, stretching toward 181 at busier hours. Almost all of it follows I-75 southwest, crossing the Everglades corridor before tracing the Gulf coast toward Charlotte Harbor. The one real variable is how thick traffic is on the way out of the Miami metro; the long open highway that follows tends to hold steady. Head out in the calmer stretch late morning or just after midday and the drive stays short; roll into the peak commuting waves and it edges longer. On a haul this length the driver can fold in one brief comfort stop if your group wants it.
Reserving takes a 50% deposit, which locks the vehicle and your flat rate; the remaining half goes straight to the driver on the day, in cash if that suits you. Every price on this page is one-way and charged per vehicle, so five people in the Black SUV pay the same single figure as one. Planning the return leg? Booking it holds the same vehicle back to MIA at the same per-vehicle rate, arranged in one reservation. Fares to Burnt Store Marina hold from the moment you confirm — no surge, no day-of recalculation.
Daytime pickups fall between 7 AM and 9 PM and carry no surcharge. Outside that window the Black SUV adds a night charge — $20 when the whole route stays inside Miami-Dade and Broward, or $50 once it reaches past them, as the Burnt Store Marina run does. The rest of the extras are few and spelled out plainly: the optional in-terminal greeter with a name sign is $20, each child seat is $20, and any stop you add along the way runs $45 for every 30 minutes. Nothing else is tacked on at the curb beyond the balance you already agreed.
The vehicle stays held for your party alone — no pooling, no strangers, no side trips to collect other riders. A couple or a small family rides the Black SUV; six to nine take a van, and ten to fourteen size up to the largest van, keeping everyone and their luggage together for the whole crossing. The driver speaks English alongside Spanish or Portuguese and stays reachable on WhatsApp before and during the trip. Because the inbound flight is tracked, a late arrival simply moves the pickup at no cost, while tolls, SunPass, and fuel already sit inside the fare.
No. The driver watches your inbound flight, so landing early or late only shifts the meeting time, not the price. The clock on your ride begins the moment you are seated in the vehicle. An ordinary delay changes nothing about the fare you confirmed at booking.
Booking 24 hours or more ahead is best, since that locks your vehicle tier and driver for the long southwest crossing. Shorter notice is still reviewed by hand when time allows. Confirming early also makes it easier to line up a tight arrival window at Burnt Store Marina.
Yes. Give the exact address inside Burnt Store Marina — a private home, a seasonal rental, a dock office, or a guarded gate — and the drop-off lands right there. Where an entrance is staffed, a quick word to your host or the gate ahead of arrival smooths the way in. Naming the specific road or building, not only the community, saves a walk with luggage at the end.
It is. The Black SUV rate covers the vehicle rather than each seat, so a solo traveler and a party of five pay the identical flat figure shown above. Choose the tier that fits your headcount and bags, and the number holds from booking with no surge.
Tolls, SunPass, and fuel are all built into the quoted rate, and the driver loads and unloads your bags at both ends. Curbside meeting and real-time flight tracking come standard. The only possible additions are the optional name-sign greeter, extra child seats, added stops, and the night charge — each listed plainly higher on this page.
Booking your private ride between MIA and Burnt Store Marina happens over WhatsApp. Send your flight details, group size, and the exact marina address, and the vehicle tier and locked flat rate come right back. Message on WhatsApp or call 786-682-8748 to set your pickup.
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.
We came into Miami and kicking things off with a private pickup straight to our place in Burnt Store Marina set the tone. We got dropped right on the doorstep, not left at some corner. They tracked the arrival, so even though we got in late, the car was right there.
