From $100 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
Tell us the ship and the driver times the pickup to its arrival, then waits at your terminal’s curb at PortMiami. The meet-and-greet there is included in the fare; a name-sign welcome is a $20 add-on. From the port the ride is direct, with no other passengers.
Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach sits right on the shoreline, which is the whole point of coming here after a week at sea. The sand is steps from the door, close enough that plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for the real thing the same afternoon they walk off the gangway. You step out of the car, hand off the bags, and the beach is already in front of you.
The setting is classic South Beach. This is the stretch where cruisers linger the night before sailing or the day they disembark, surrounded by Art Deco hotels, the constant people-watching along Ocean Drive, and the shops that line Lincoln Road. Everything that gives this end of the island its character is within easy reach of the hotel, so the destination is as much a neighborhood as it is an address.
Getting here from the cruise terminal is a short causeway hop, which is what makes staying on this side so appealing straight off the ship. Rather than a long haul inland, you cross the water and you are here, with the ocean on one side and the walkable heart of South Beach on the other. For a traveler who wants the transition from ship to shoreline to be quick and uncomplicated, Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach delivers exactly that: real sand, a lively neighborhood at the door, and none of the distance that turns the end of a cruise into another travel day. Give us the ship and the date, and the car is ready to close the last few miles between the terminal and this address.
This is one clean run from the terminal curb to the hotel entrance. Off the ship, the driver is staged before your group clears the exit hall, so the wait belongs to them, not to you, with 30 minutes of courtesy time built in for the disembarkation rush. The bags go straight into the vehicle, and from the pier it is a single trip along MacArthur Causeway and SR A1A to the door of Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach.
Plan on roughly 6.9 miles and about 22 to 24 minutes terminal to door, depending on traffic and the hour. There is no line to stand in and no luggage left on the sidewalk while you sort out a ride. Leaving for the ship works the same way in reverse: the chauffeur meets you at the hotel entrance, loads everything, and times the pickup around your sailing so you reach the port with room to spare.
Rideshare lines and shared shuttles add waiting and extra stops; a private vehicle leaves when you are ready and goes only where you are going. The fare covers the whole car, the tolls and the fuel.
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.
Count passengers and bags and the vehicle follows: the SUV for up to 5 with luggage, the vans for 6-9 or 10-14. There is no splitting a group across cars.
Up to 12 hours before pickup you can change passengers, luggage or extras. Dates are locked at booking and do not move.
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.
Traveling with our little ones, we booked a private van to be waiting at the curb and take everyone over to Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach. We knew the plan before the ship even docked, so there was no guessing at the port.
We didn’t want to juggle the little ones and the bags looking for a ride at the port, so we reserved a private van to Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach.
My husband and I finished a wonderful cruise and followed it with a private car waiting right at the terminal to take us to Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach — not one worry at the terminal.
My partner and I weren’t up for the chaos outside the terminal, so we reserved a private ride to Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach before we even sailed. There was a thirty-minute cushion from the agreed time, so we never had to rush through customs. The driver took care of every bag so we didn’t have to juggle it all.
Mi esposa y yo terminamos un crucero buenísimo y lo rematamos con un auto privado listo en la acera para llevarnos a Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach — sin una sola preocupación en la terminal. El conductor nos dejó en la entrada de Bvlgari Hotel Miami Beach, y no a media cuadra.
