From $100 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, a name-sign pickup adds $20, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon sits in the MIA Airport District, along the Blue Lagoon corridor near Miami International Airport. It is the kind of address travelers pick for its position rather than its distance from anything downtown: close to the airport, easy to reach from the expressways, and set up for a night of rest between a flight and a sailing. If your plan is to fly in, sleep, and roll to the ship the next morning, this is a practical base.
The property sits near the Dolphin Expressway, known on the map as SR-836, which is the road most people use to move between this district, the airport, and the port. NW 36th Street and the Palmetto Expressway run close by as well, so the hotel is well connected in every direction. Miami Springs Golf Course is one of the spots guests fold into their time here once they are on the ground and settled in.
What you find on arrival is straightforward and airport-friendly: a spot built for travelers in transit, with the surrounding corridor geared toward convenience over sightseeing. Anything about the stay itself — rooms, breakfast, check-in hours — lives on the hotel’s own official page, and that is theirs to describe. Our part is the ride: getting you from the cruise terminal to this door, and back again on embarkation day, with the vehicle reserved for your group alone. Details about the district and the roads around it are here so you know where you are landing before you get there.
This is a private, terminal-to-door transfer between the Port of Miami cruise terminals and Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon. After you disembark, your chauffeur meets you at the terminal, loads the luggage, and follows SR-836 for the short run to the hotel — about 8.3 miles from the port to the property. Plan on roughly 22 to 28 minutes terminal to door, with SR-836 traffic being the one thing that moves that number up or down depending on the hour.
The pickup is planned around your ship’s actual arrival, with room to spare, so you are not standing on the curb waiting on app availability. Your bags stay in the vehicle for the whole trip, and the driver carries them at both ends. The car is yours alone — no strangers, no added stops between the terminal and the hotel entrance. On embarkation day the same flat one-way rate covers the reverse leg, so you can book both directions together and have each pickup scheduled around your sailing.
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.
A 50% deposit reserves the ride online; the balance is paid to the driver on the day, cash or card. The fare is one way and per vehicle, so what you see above is the full price for the trip.
Late is fine: the SUV night fee is $20 in Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 outside them for pickups between 9 PM and 7 AM. A stop on the route runs $45 per 30 minutes, and a child seat is $15.
The black SUV takes up to 5 passengers with their luggage; the vans carry 6 to 9 or 10 to 14 with room for the bags. Tell us how many people and how many suitcases travel and the right vehicle is assigned.
Passenger count, child seat or pickup detail changes are fine up to 12 hours ahead. The travel date cannot be moved to another day, so confirm it carefully.
Questions or ready to reserve? WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 and we take it from there.
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.
We cruised as a group and wanted everyone and the luggage in one private ride to Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon after disembarking. Getting to Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon straight from the terminal meant we could check in and finally shower after the week at sea. No line to stand in — we just walked from the terminal to a car that was already there.
Bajamos del barco cansados pero contentos y un conductor ya esperando para llevarnos a Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon fue la decisión correcta. La noche anterior recibimos un mensaje con el nombre del conductor y la placa, así que no quedaba nada por resolver al salir. Sinceramente la parte más fácil del viaje — el puerto quedó totalmente resuelto. ¡Gracias por el traspaso tan tranquilo!
Me quitó toda la preocupación de bajar del barco — muy recomendable. Para llegar del barco a Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon sin complicaciones, fue dinero bien gastado.
Para un desembarque sin estrés, mi pareja y yo hicimos que un conductor privado nos esperara en la terminal de cruceros y nos llevara a Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon. La noche anterior recibimos un mensaje con el nombre del conductor y la placa, así que no hubo que adivinar en la acera al salir.
After our sailing, my wife and I didn’t feel like chasing a ride at the terminal, so we arranged a private car to Hampton Inn & Suites Miami Airport South Blue Lagoon. Honestly the most stress-free part of the whole trip — everything just fell into place at the terminal.
