From $120 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Resort Grace in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way trip, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
Book with the ship’s name and the date, and the driver handles the rest at PortMiami: waiting at the correct terminal, helping with the suitcases, and leaving the port without a queue. The curbside meet-and-greet costs nothing extra; the inside name-sign welcome adds $20.
Resort Grace sits in Brickell, the cluster of banking towers and rooftop restaurants that rises just south of the Miami River. It is a neighborhood built for people who want the city at their feet: high-rise living, walkable blocks, and a river-and-avenue setting only a couple of bridges from the cruise terminals. When you step off the ship, this is where the ride is headed, a short run into one of the most walkable corners of the city.
Once you check in and drop your bags, the surrounding streets do the work. Brickell City Centre and Mary Brickell Village are the twin anchors here, one a layered shopping and dining complex and the other a compact stretch of restaurants and bars. The Miami River and Brickell Avenue frame the district, so a stroll in almost any direction lands you somewhere worth stopping. Guests coming off the ships tend to fold these into their first hours ashore without needing a plan.
At the property itself, the arrival is simple. Look for your driver at the main entrance when it is time to head back toward the port, and expect the same easy handoff on the way in. The vehicle is reserved for your group alone, so there is no waiting on strangers and no rerouting to other stops. Whether you are two travelers or a full party with a stack of cruise luggage, the car meeting you is yours from the curb, giving Brickell its natural role as your base between the terminal and the rest of the trip.
Book the ride before you dock and disembarkation turns into the easy part. As you walk off the ship, the pickup is coordinated by message so the driver is staged for your ship’s actual arrival, not a guessed clock time. There is no shared vehicle and no hunting through a crowded curb: your chauffeur meets you at the exact terminal your cruise line uses, takes the bags at the pier, and loads them into the vehicle for you.
From there it is a single, direct leg to Resort Grace, with fuel, standard tolls, and luggage help already inside the fare. A 30-minute wait window is built into port pickups, so a slow gangway or a long line at the terminal does not cost you the ride. Your driver is bilingual in English and Spanish and knows the terminals, and the vehicle stays reserved for your party alone from pickup to drop-off at the entrance.
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.
You pay a 50% deposit online to hold the vehicle, then the balance directly to the driver on the day, in cash or by card. The one-way fare above is the whole amount.
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.
A full-size suitcase per passenger fits the SUV with five aboard; groups of six or more move to a van sized 6-9 or 10-14 with the cargo space to match.
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.
Para un desembarque tranquilo, mi pareja y yo hicimos que un conductor privado nos recibiera en la terminal de cruceros y nos llevara a Resort Grace. Llegar a Resort Grace sin vueltas significó que pudimos hacer el check-in y por fin darnos una ducha tras la semana en el mar.
Viajaba solo y reservé un auto privado para que me esperara en el puerto al bajar del barco y llevarme hasta Resort Grace. Ya guardé el contacto para mi próximo crucero desde PortMiami. Bajando del barco por mi cuenta, me sentí muy a gusto desde la terminal hasta la puerta de Resort Grace.
As a solo cruiser I arranged a private transfer from the port to Resort Grace for the morning I got off, and it took all the guesswork out of it. Honestly the easiest part of the whole trip — ship to hotel door with zero stress. I knew the plan before the ship even docked, so there was nothing to worry about at the terminal.
La forma tranquila de ir del barco a Resort Grace. Lo reservaría de nuevo sin dudar.
After our sailing, my partner and I weren’t going to gamble on a ride at the terminal, so we lined up a private car to Resort Grace. For a no-hassle way to get from the ship to Resort Grace, it was money well spent. An easy, low-key handoff for the two of us — off the ship and into Resort Grace with nothing left to sort out. Thanks for the smooth handoff!
