From $125 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Coral House Hotel 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.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. Meet-and-greet at the terminal is included; a name-sign welcome is available for an extra $20. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Coral House Hotel sits in Hollywood, the easygoing beach town that lands roughly halfway between Miami and Fort Lauderdale. It keeps the unhurried rhythm of a shoreline community rather than the pace of a big-city downtown, which makes it a calm place to arrive after days at sea. For travelers stepping off a cruise, that change of tempo is the whole point — a quiet base within easy reach of the water.
The best part of staying here is how close the sand really is. The shoreline sits just steps from the door, and plenty of guests swap the ship’s pool for real ocean the same afternoon they walk off the gangway. You can drop your bags, change, and be standing on the beach before the day is over, with no long drive between you and the surf.
Hollywood gives the hotel plenty to fill the hours around it. The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk runs along the water for strolling, cycling, and open-air meals, while ArtsPark at Young Circle brings green space and events a short way inland. The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and West Lake Park are both close by in Hollywood as well, so an evening out or a morning in nature is never far off. Settling in for a few nights or catching one last stretch of Florida before the flight home, you will find the beach and the town’s small pleasures within an easy reach of Coral House Hotel.
Your ride begins right where your ship ties up, at your own terminal on Dodge Island inside the Port of Miami. Once your group clears the hall and reaches the curb, the chauffeur is already there — coordinated by message as you walk out — and loads the luggage into the vehicle so nothing rides on your shoulder. There is no line to join and no bag to drag across a parking lot; you step from the terminal straight into the car.
From the port it is a single, direct leg north to Coral House Hotel, roughly 22.4 miles by way of I-95. Depending on the morning’s traffic the drive usually runs between 43 and 59 minutes, and the chauffeur knows the route and the busy cruise-day timing well. Your bags come out at the hotel entrance, and your group travels together the whole way.
The car waits for you, not the other way around. Your group travels together with the luggage in the same vehicle, the fare is known before the ride, and the driver takes the direct route to the destination.
No. A 50% deposit secures the booking and the remaining half is paid to the driver on the day, cash or card. Nothing else is charged unless you add an extra service.
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.
Yes for the details: add a passenger, a child seat or a note up to 12 hours before the pickup time. No for the date, which stays as booked.
To book, WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748. Share the date, the number of travelers and bags, and we lock in the driver.
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.
El desembarque más fácil que hemos tenido — recogida en la terminal, equipaje listo, directo a la puerta de Coral House Hotel. Sinceramente la parte más tranquila del viaje — todo se acomodó solo en la terminal.
Bajamos del barco cansados pero contentos y un conductor ya esperando para llevarnos a Coral House Hotel marcó la pauta del resto del viaje. Había un cartel con nuestro nombre en la salida, así que ubicamos al conductor al instante. El conductor nos dejó justo en la puerta de Coral House Hotel, y no a media cuadra. Lo reservaría para el próximo crucero.
Fuimos de crucero con amigos y queríamos a todos y el equipaje en un solo viaje privado a Coral House Hotel tras desembarcar. Sin pelear con una app — caminamos de la terminal a un auto que ya estaba ahí.
Los niños estaban rendidos tras una semana en el mar cuando bajamos, y una van privada ahí en la terminal llevó a todos a Coral House Hotel antes de que alguien colapsara. El SUV estaba con espacio de sobra para todo el equipaje del crucero, con lugar para todo.
Fomos de cruzeiro com amigos e queríamos o grupo inteiro numa viagem privativa só até Coral House Hotel depois de desembarcar. Na noite anterior recebemos uma texto com o nome do motorista e a placa, então não sobrou nada para resolver na saída.
