From $100 per vehicle, a private one-way ride from MIA to the Kimpton Hotel Palomar South Beach, one flat fare.
Each figure below covers the whole vehicle and is locked the moment you reserve, so the amount quoted is the amount you settle. Pick the size that matches your group:
Arrivals at Miami International are met at the curb, and that curbside greeting is part of the fare. Your chauffeur is already standing there as you walk out of the terminal, lifts the bags, and leads you the short distance to the car — nothing to open on a phone, no rideshare line to join. Prefer to be greeted inside the building instead, past the doors, with your name held up on a sign? That in-terminal welcome is an optional $20 add-on you set at booking. Whichever you pick, the chauffeur is following your inbound flight, so the pickup shifts to your real landing on its own.
The distance from MIA to the Kimpton Hotel Palomar South Beach is 11.9 miles. Off-peak that clears in about 27 minutes; when the roads fill, figure closer to 33. The line of travel is the Dolphin Expressway, SR-836, running east off the airport toward the sand. What decides a swift trip from a slow one is the hour rather than the map — mid-morning and early-afternoon departures move top, while the commute peaks are where the extra minutes appear. A heavier drive costs you a little patience and nothing more, since the fare is set before you leave and no meter ticks up front.
Set inside the South Beach district of Miami Beach, the Kimpton Hotel Palomar South Beach puts you a few blocks from the Atlantic in a small boutique property. Step out of the lobby and Ocean Drive’s Art Deco fronts, the open-air shops and cafés of Lincoln Road, and the sand are all a short walk rather than a drive. South Beach itself is a barrier island — ocean along one flank, Biscayne Bay along the other — so pairing the street address with the hotel name tells your chauffeur which side of the block to head for. Rooms, rates, and amenities are on the official hotel site.
The fleet is private only, so the choice comes down to heads and bags. A Black SUV seats up to five travelers plus their luggage and suits couples, small families, and business travelers. A private van steps in for 6 to 9, and a larger van handles 10 to 14 — event groups, multi-family trips, anyone moving as one. The baggage line is one checked bag and one carry-on each, which a full SUV or van manages without a squeeze. Traveling with oversized or extra pieces? Send a WhatsApp note ahead and the space is confirmed or you move up a size — easy in advance, awkward at the curb.
The flat fare is genuinely all-in. Tolls, SunPass charges, and fuel already sit inside the number, so nothing extra is added at drop-off for the roads you cross. Onboard WiFi comes through a mobile hotspot, so the group stays online from the terminal to the lobby. Two clearly-set extras sit outside that base figure: the in-terminal name-sign greeting for $20, and any added stop you ask for on the way, billed at $45 per half hour. Beyond those, the ride to the Kimpton Palomar is simply the vehicle, the route, and the chauffeur.
Payment stays simple and is confirmed in writing before the day. Venmo, Zelle, or a secure link all work. To hold the booking you put down a 50% deposit, and the remaining half goes straight to your chauffeur once you land. The rate attaches to the vehicle rather than the head, so a solo rider and a full SUV pay the same posted figure; booking both legs of a round trip simply doubles the one-way fare. Nothing else waits to be settled at the curb beyond that agreed balance.
Daytime pickups between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM carry no surcharge. Outside that window a small after-hours charge applies:
A late plane changes nothing for you. The chauffeur is watching your inbound flight as it comes in and resets the pickup to whatever time you actually touch down, so a delay or an early gate just moves the meeting along with it. You do not re-book, you do not re-message, and the price does not move — the same car and the same curb greeting are waiting whenever you clear the terminal.
Yes — this is a fully private ride. The car is held for your group alone, with no pooling, no strangers, and no detours to scoop up other passengers between MIA and the Kimpton Hotel Palomar South Beach. It stays a one-way, door-to-door trip, and adding riders up to the vehicle’s limit never changes the flat fare.
Yes — the return leg books the same way, and the same flat, per-vehicle rate applies in reverse. Because arrivals are met at MIA while departures are open-ended, your ride out can even head to a different Miami-area airport or a cruise terminal if that is where you leave from. Reserve both legs together and one chauffeur covers the round trip.
Each chauffeur speaks English as well as Spanish or Portuguese, so the first exchange at the curb is a real conversation rather than a round of gestures. Names, bags, and any last-minute pickup change get sorted on the spot, and a WhatsApp message beforehand works in either language just as well.
The first child seat, for a passenger under five, rides free; each additional seat is $20, set when you book. Small pets are welcome too, with advance notice on WhatsApp and a proper carrier for the ride. Flag either when you reserve and it is fitted before the vehicle pulls away from MIA.
Ready to lock in your private ride between MIA and the Kimpton Hotel Palomar South Beach? Message WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 with your flight number, arrival date, and passenger count, plus anything unusual such as a pet or a child seat, and back come the vehicle, the price, and the pickup detail in writing.
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.

Our group flew into MIA and booked one private van from the airport to Kimpton Hotel Palomar South Beach. The SUV was clean, cool, and comfortable, and the AC was perfect. Our flight came in late and the driver was still there waiting — not a worry at all.
