From $100 per vehicle, a private one-way ride from MIA to Loews Coral Gables Hotel — flat rate, black SUV or van, bilingual driver.
Each price below is set per vehicle, not per person, and it is fixed the second you reserve — with tolls, SunPass and fuel already inside it, the whole party rides for a single figure.
Typical collection at Miami International Airport is at the curb: with your bags in hand and the terminal behind you, the driver is already there, having tracked your flight down in real time. A late or early landing re-times the pickup on its own at no extra cost, so a long customs line never leaves you stranded. A name sign inside the terminal is an optional $20 add-on. The car heads for Coral Gables the moment you and your luggage are settled.
The run from the airport to Loews Coral Gables Hotel covers 4.3 miles, about 6.9 kilometers, and takes roughly 16 to 17 minutes depending on the hour. Off-peak it sits nearer 16; through the busiest commuting windows it lengthens only a minute or two, since the distance is short and the path down Le Jeune Road (SR-953) skirts the worst freeway snarls. Because the fare is fixed before you travel, a slow afternoon crawl never lifts what you pay. From the terminal the route runs south toward downtown Coral Gables and ends at the hotel entrance, with no stops in between.
Two very different hotels in this county carry the Loews name: the inland one here in Coral Gables and a far larger property out on the barrier island by the beach. They stand nowhere near each other, so a booking that lists only the brand can point to the wrong one — naming the city, or the street address, settles it, which is why that detail is asked for first.
Loews Coral Gables Hotel sits along the fringe of a polished downtown known for Mediterranean-revival buildings, tree-lined avenues and a compact, walkable center of high-end shops and dining. The surrounding blocks read corporate and refined — consulate offices, banking towers and law firms beside long-standing restaurants and sidewalk cafés, with the Miracle Mile shopping strip and Spanish-style courtyards close at hand. Against the beaches, it makes a calmer, more residential base. Look over the property on its Greater Miami visitor listing or on the Michelin hotel guide before you arrive.
Three private tiers cover nearly any party, sized from your passenger and bag counts before travel day. Each vehicle is held for your group alone — never pooled, never a stranger in the back seat.
If your group lands right on a size boundary or carries extra bags, message first and the booking is confirmed as-is or bumped up a size so nobody rides cramped.
The flat fare buys the whole private car, a driver fluent in English plus Spanish or Portuguese, and the charges that so frequently surprise passengers. Tolls, SunPass and fuel all sit inside the price, nothing is collected at the roadside, and an onboard hotspot keeps you connected. One checked bag and one carry-on per passenger travel as typical; heavier or oversized pieces can be arranged if you flag them ahead of time. Payment splits so nothing is handed over in full up front: a 50% deposit at booking holds the vehicle, and the remaining half goes to the driver on the day. Venmo, Zelle or a secure link all work, and the price stays per vehicle whether two people ride or fourteen. A return leg simply costs the same again — reserve both directions in one message and one driver covers the round trip. A small pet is welcome too, with advance WhatsApp notice and a carrier.
Daytime runs from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM with no surcharge. A pickup that falls outside that window adds a small after-hours amount to the flat fare:
Need to break the journey — an office, a consulate, an errand before check-in? A single stop can be written into the reservation at $45 per extra 30 minutes; give the address at booking so those minutes are built into the driver’s schedule. Raised at the curb with the bags already loaded, the same request is far harder to fit.
No. Your driver tracks the inbound flight and shifts the pickup to your real landing time, so a delay never costs you the ride or an extra dollar. The rate was set when you booked, which means arriving late can only ever cost what you already agreed to.
Yes. The typical meet is curbside as you step out, but for a $20 add-on the driver will wait inside beneath a sign with your name. Ask for it while booking and note which terminal your flight uses, so the greeting is arranged in advance.
Yes. Children under five ride with the first car seat free of charge; each extra seat runs $20, set at booking. Share the children’s ages over WhatsApp as you reserve and the right seats are installed and ready at pickup.
For the whole vehicle. The flat price shown above covers everyone aboard, whether it’s two people in the SUV or fourteen filling the biggest van. Bringing more riders, up to a vehicle’s limit, never lifts the price — a fuller car just means better value per seat.
Send the flight number, arrival date, party size and the hotel name over WhatsApp, and confirmation comes back with the vehicle held under your name and the pickup details. The 50% deposit fixes the rate and attaches a driver to your flight. Booking earlier makes it simpler to match a busy arrival day.

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.
Llegué a Miami tarde y fue muy cómodo tener mi propio conductor ya esperándome. El conductor me dejó justo en la puerta de Loews Coral Gables Hotel.
Perfect way to start the trip — highly recommend. Honestly the smoothest part of my whole trip — arrival was completely stress-free.
Com as crianças, combinar o traslado até Loews Coral Gables Hotel significou nada de correria ao pousar. O trajeto até Loews Coral Gables Hotel foi calmo e sem complicação.
Traveling with the kids, I was NOT about to wrangle a taxi at MIA, so I booked a private van to Loews Coral Gables Hotel. The driver handled the luggage so we didn’t have to lift a thing after the flight.
Our group of friends booked one van straight from MIA, and it worked out great. The car was really comfortable after a long flight, and the AC was perfect.
