From $110 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Beaches Resorts 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.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the terminal greeting included in the fare and a $20 name-sign option if you want it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
Beaches Resorts sits within Kendall and South Miami-Dade, the band of southwestern suburbs that anchors this side of the county. Kendall itself runs from Dadeland Mall and the southern end of the Metrorail line out toward the quieter residential streets that lead into Pinecrest and Palmetto Bay. It is a calmer, greener part of Miami-Dade than the waterfront, and your arrival lands you close to shopping, transit, and the neighborhoods that fill the map south and west of downtown.
Around the resort you are well placed for the everyday things a group wants after a cruise. Dadeland Mall is close by for shopping, and Pinecrest Gardens gives you a green space within easy reach. If you stay on past your sailing, the Deering Estate and Baptist Hospital both sit inside the same Kendall and South Miami-Dade area, so appointments, errands, and a slower day out are all within the district rather than a long haul across town.
Every ride here is a private, terminal-to-door run for your party alone, so you reach Beaches Resorts without a change of vehicle or a stop to pick up strangers. Your driver carries the bags from the vehicle to the entrance and leaves you at the door, whether you are the SUV group of five or a van party filling all fourteen seats. The chauffeur speaks both English and Spanish and works the port week in and week out, so the handover at the terminal and the drop at the resort both stay simple. It is the same flat, per-vehicle fare in either direction, agreed before you travel and holding firm on the day.
The run begins the moment your ship clears. Your chauffeur is staged at the exact terminal your cruise line uses on Dodge Island, coordinated by message as you come out of the baggage hall, and waits at the curb with a 30-minute window built in so customs and the luggage line never rush you. Bags go straight into the vehicle, your group rides together, and the car is yours alone door to door.
From the port the driver follows the SR-836 corridor across to Kendall and South Miami-Dade, a trip that runs roughly 29 to 40 minutes depending on the traffic that day. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest stretch, so the pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation rather than a fixed clock, with that traffic already priced into the flat fare. You step out at the entrance of Beaches Resorts and the driver sets the bags down beside you.
A reserved driver removes the guesswork after a long flight or a cruise morning: no queue at a taxi stand, no surge pricing, no shared stops. The group rides together and the price on this page is the price you pay.
Reserve with a 50% deposit; hand the balance to the driver on the day by cash or card. Fares are quoted per vehicle, one way, with tolls and fuel included.
Daytime service runs 7 AM to 9 PM; outside that window the SUV carries a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 beyond. A child seat is fitted on request for $15. Extra stops along the way are $45 per 30 minutes.
The SUV seats up to 5 with their luggage; the 6-9 and 10-14 passenger vans keep bigger groups together. Send the head count and bag count and the vehicle is matched to them.
Edits to the booking, like adding a passenger or a seat, are accepted until 12 hours before the ride. Moving the date is not possible after booking.
Reach us on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or by phone at 786-682-8748; send the date, passengers and luggage and the reservation is confirmed the same 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.
After a week at sea I just wanted the ride handled, so a private car from the port to Beaches Resorts was money well spent. I was dropped at the entrance of Beaches Resorts, not down the block. The night before, I got a text with the driver’s name and license plate, so there was no guessing at the curb on the way out.
Todo salió a tiempo de la acera de la terminal hasta la puerta de Beaches Resorts — tal cual lo prometido. Había treinta minutos de margen desde la hora acordada, así que nunca tuvimos que apurarme para pasar la aduana.
Tudo saiu conforme o planejado do meio-fio do terminal até a porta de Beaches Resorts — exatamente como prometido. Sem vasculhar estacionamento — andamos do terminal até um carro que já estava lá.
Nuestro grupo de amigos reservó una van directo del puerto a Beaches Resorts, y nadie tuvo que preocuparse por nada. Había treinta minutos de margen desde la hora acordada, así que nunca tuvimos que apurarme para bajar del barco.
I was cruising by myself and booked a private car to meet me at the port once the ship docked and take me straight to Beaches Resorts. The driver took care of every bag so I didn’t have to juggle it all. The ride from the terminal to Beaches Resorts was smooth and steady, and I could just unwind after the cruise.
