From $105 per vehicle: a private one-way ride from MIA to THesis Hotel Miami Coral Gables, flat rate, curbside pickup.
Every price here books the whole vehicle for a one-way trip, locked the moment the reservation is confirmed; peak-hour congestion and busy dates leave it untouched.
Send the flight number and landing time by WhatsApp, and the pickup is scheduled against the plane’s real touchdown instead of the printed timetable. Your typical meeting point is the arrivals curb: step out of the terminal with your bags and the driver is already posted by the doors, with no app to open and no queue to wait in. Would you rather be met inside the hall under a name sign? That in-terminal greeting is a $20 add-on selected at booking. An early landing or a long delay only shifts the pickup — the private car stays reserved for your party at no penalty.
Out of the airport, the route drops south into Coral Gables along Northwest 42nd Avenue — the very stretch that maps and signage also label SR-953 and LeJeune Road. One road under three names turns what could look like a tangle into a single straight line. It is also among the few MIA trips that never touch an interstate: the drive stays on city streets from the terminal exit to the hotel entrance, so traffic signals and intersections, rather than freeway volume, govern the timing.
The distance comes to 4.3 miles — roughly 6.9 kilometers — and the drive normally lands between 24 and 26 minutes door to door. Quiet mid-morning and early-afternoon stretches keep it close to 24; when the morning or evening rush loads the surface roads, it drifts toward 26. A trip this brief holds under half an hour even on a busy day, and because the charge follows the car rather than a meter, a slow stretch of traffic never raises the total.
THesis Hotel Miami Coral Gables is a design-led property in Hilton’s Curio Collection, standing south of the airport with dining and event space on site. The blocks around it show Mediterranean Revival facades, tree-lined boulevards and a compact, walkable run of boutiques, cafés and restaurants, with cultural and academic landmarks spread across the wider district — a calmer, more refined contrast to the beachfront areas. Room details and rates sit on the THesis Hotel Miami site, with live availability on the Hilton Curio listing.
Choose by how numerous are riding; each class is held privately for your party, with the whole group in one vehicle:
The flat rate already absorbs the running costs that show up as extras elsewhere. Fuel, every toll and the SunPass charge live inside the quote, so nothing is appended when you reach the hotel. The curbside meet, the reserved private vehicle and a bilingual driver — English along with Spanish or Portuguese — all fall under that single figure, and each car carries a mobile-hotspot WiFi signal for the ride. Every passenger brings one checked bag and one carry-on. The first safety seat for a child under five costs nothing; each seat after that is $20, set at booking. A small pet is welcome in a carrier when you mention it on WhatsApp ahead of time, and any extra stop is billed at $45 for each half hour.
Payment comes in two stages, so no large amount is taken before the day arrives. Half secures the reservation up front — through Venmo, Zelle or a secure card link — and the remaining half goes to the driver on travel day. Whatever is agreed at booking is the final number, with no surge and no line items added later. Need the return leg? A round trip runs at double the one-way price on one booking, the same class of car carrying you back to MIA on your departure date.
Pickups from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM carry no surcharge. Begin a ride outside that window and a modest after-hours amount applies, keyed to the vehicle.
No. The vehicle is booked for your party and nobody else, driving straight from the MIA curb to the hotel without collecting another rider or detouring for a second fare. The private, one-way ride to THesis Hotel Miami Coral Gables belongs to your group alone.
The rate attaches to the car, not the head, so everyone travels on the one price shown above. Five passengers in the Black SUV pay exactly what a single rider would for the same SUV, which is why splitting a private transfer across a family or group works out well.
Yes. Reserve the outbound and the return together and one booking handles both directions in the same class of vehicle. Give the departure date and time when you book, and the hotel pickup is scheduled around your flight home so you reach the terminal with time to spare.
Booking a private, one-way ride to or from THesis Hotel Miami Coral Gables takes a single message. Reach WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or phone 786-682-8748 with the flight number, travel date, group size and the vehicle you want; the pickup time and the locked price follow by reply.
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 flew into Miami for vacation and had a driver waiting the moment we came out of baggage claim. They tracked the landing, so even though we got in behind schedule, the car was ready and waiting. We were on our way within minutes of clearing arrivals, no waiting around.
After a long flight, the last thing we wanted was to hunt for a car — so glad we pre-arranged the transfer to THesis Hotel Miami Coral Gables. A relaxed start to the two of us being on vacation.
Our whole group rode together straight from MIA, and it worked out great. The driver was in a sharp, clean car, exactly what you want after a flight. Honestly the easiest part of our whole trip — arrival was completely stress-free.
Vinimos a Florida de luna de miel y arrancar con una recogida privada marcó la pauta. El conductor fue un conductor seguro y tranquilo, justo lo que quieres tras un vuelo.
Minha esposa e eu quisemos evitar o caos de táxi do aeroporto, então reservamos a viagem até THesis Hotel Miami Coral Gables. O motorista era falava inglês e espanhol sem problema, o que deixou tudo bem mais fácil.
