From $100 per vehicle, a private one-way black car ride from Port of Miami to Mondrian South Beach Hotel.
Each figure below is the whole-vehicle fare for one direction between the cruise terminals and Mondrian South Beach Hotel — fixed the moment you reserve, and never scaled up by the number of passengers or the time of day.
Once your ship ties up at PortMiami, the driver stands by on the arrivals side of the exact terminal your cruise line uses that day. As you clear the gangway and gather your luggage, a short message settles precisely where to meet — meet and greet comes with every booking at no charge, and a printed name sign can be added for $20 if you would rather be met by name in the crowd. The wait window at the port runs a full 30 minutes past your scheduled pickup, which comfortably absorbs a slow disembarkation on a packed Saturday morning. There is no app to open and no rideshare lot to search: you walk straight from baggage claim to a car already assigned to your party.
From the pier the run covers roughly 5.2 miles and usually lands between 13 and 15 minutes. The route leaves the port, crosses the MacArthur Causeway, and follows SR A1A onto the barrier island before ending at 1100 West Avenue in Miami Beach, 33139. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest window, with several ships emptying at once, so the pickup is paced to your real walk-off rather than a fixed clock — and the usual causeway traffic is already priced into the flat fare, with no surge added at the curb.
Mondrian South Beach Hotel sits on West Avenue along the bay side of Miami Beach, a short hop from the Atlantic and the sand at Lummus Park. Step outside and the neighborhood opens into one walkable grid — the pastel Art Deco fronts of Ocean Drive, the narrow café lane of Española Way, and the pedestrian run of Lincoln Road are all close by. Because the property sits so near the water, plenty of cruise arrivals drop their bags first and head straight out for a beach afternoon. For rooms, parking, and check-in details, the hotel’s own team is the best source — see the official hotel page.
Reserving is simple: a 50% deposit holds the vehicle for your exact sail date, and the remaining half is handed to the driver on the day of service. Every fare is quoted one way, so a round trip to and from the ship is just the two legs booked together, each pickup planned around your own schedule. The price covers the whole vehicle for your party — a single figure for the group, never a charge per head — so the rate you see when booking is the rate that holds on the day.
Standard service hours run from 7 AM to 9 PM. A pickup outside that window carries a set night fee: $20 for the SUV when the ride stays inside Miami-Dade or Broward — which this Miami Beach trip does — rising to $50 once a drive reaches well beyond those counties, while a van adds 10 percent of its fare. Should you need the driver to fold in an extra stop along the way, the added time is billed at $45 for each 30 minutes, agreed before the day so nothing is a surprise at drop-off.
Families step off the ships here every week, so a child seat is easy to line up — on a Port of Miami pickup each seat adds $15, simply noted when you book. The quoted fare already folds in fuel and standard tolls, hands-on help with every bag from the terminal curb to the vehicle, and exclusive use of the car from the port to the door. A tip for the driver stays entirely optional and at your discretion, and one pickup address is included per reservation.
Yes. The fare is charged per vehicle, so the SUV rate holds whether one passenger or five ride from the port. A group of six to nine moves to the $140 van, and ten to fourteen to the $180 van — still a single price for the whole party, one way.
Plan on about 13 to 15 minutes once you are settled in the car, since Mondrian South Beach Hotel sits roughly 5.2 miles from the terminals. Heavier weekend traffic on the MacArthur Causeway can stretch that a touch, and the driver takes the clearest lane available on the day.
The pickup re-times at no extra cost. The driver follows your terminal’s actual disembarkation and holds the reserved vehicle, so a slow morning at the port never costs you the ride or nudges the flat fare upward. You keep the same car and the same price.
Yes. The same one-way rate applies in reverse, from Mondrian South Beach Hotel back to your cruise terminal on sailing day. Book both directions in one reservation and each pickup is scheduled around your embarkation time, with the return car confirmed in advance.
Send your ship, terminal, sail date, and passenger count and we confirm your pickup time and the fare for your group. Message us on WhatsApp or call 786-682-8748 to lock the vehicle for your Mondrian South Beach Hotel transfer.
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 nothing left to think about, so a private car from the port to Mondrian South Beach Hotel was exactly right. The fare was locked in at booking, no surprise on a busy disembarkation morning. There was a generous grace period from the agreed time, so I never had to rush to gather the bags.
We weren’t about to juggle the little ones and the bags looking for a ride at the port, so we reserved a private van to Mondrian South Beach Hotel.
First time cruising on my own out of PortMiami, and having a private car waiting at the terminal for the trip to Mondrian South Beach Hotel could not have been smoother. For a no-hassle way to get from the ship to Mondrian South Beach Hotel, it was money well spent. There was a board with my name on it at the exit, so I knew right where to go.
Stepping off the ship, having the ride already handled to Mondrian South Beach Hotel was exactly what we needed. We had the driver’s details ahead of time, so there was nothing to worry about at the terminal.
Our family of five came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver helped with the whole pile of luggage for the ride to Mondrian South Beach Hotel. We got a clear confirmation, so there was nothing to worry about at the terminal.
