From $560 per vehicle — a private, one-way ride from the Port of Miami to Satellite Beach by black SUV or van.
The rate below covers the whole vehicle, not each seat, and it locks the moment you reserve — a busy disembarkation morning is billed the same as a quiet afternoon, with no surge tacked on for traffic, weather, or peak demand.
Once your ship ties up at the Port of Miami and you walk off the gangway with your bags, the driver is already standing curbside outside the cruise terminal. Meet-and-greet comes with every booking, so a real person is waiting rather than a pin dropped on a map. Ask ahead over WhatsApp and the driver will hold a name sign at the exit for a $40 add-on, which earns its keep in a disembarkation crowd. Because the driver’s name, vehicle, and plate reach you the day before, the handoff from terminal to SUV takes about a minute and the luggage goes straight into the back.
Satellite Beach is a low-key barrier-island town on the Space Coast, set on the sliver of barrier island that divides the Banana River from the Atlantic. The feel is residential and family-first rather than resort-polished: oceanfront parks, surfable breaks, wooden crossovers onto the sand, and unfussy seafood spots, with the wider Melbourne area a short hop inland. For cruise travelers chasing quiet beach time after a busy sailing, the town suits perfectly. Local details, hours, and services live on the official City of Satellite Beach website, and its shoreline and green spaces are mapped in the local parks and recreation guide.
This is a true intercity run, not a quick city hop — the route leaves the Port of Miami and heads up I-95 North along Florida’s Atlantic coast toward the Space Coast, finishing at your Satellite Beach address in one continuous drive with no mid-trip transfers. Because the town sits out on the barrier island, the last stretch crosses a causeway bridge off the mainland, and those crossings are the pinch point on holiday weekends and at the end of a hot beach day when everyone heads back at once. How long the whole thing takes shifts with the hour and how heavy the coastal corridor is running, so the driver times your pickup around the ship’s real arrival and holds to the cleanest lanes. Whatever the road does, the flat per-vehicle fare stays fixed.
Reserving the ride takes a 50% deposit up front, which holds your vehicle for the sail date; the remaining half goes straight to the driver on the day of the trip. Pricing is one-way, so a single leg is exactly the fare shown above, and a round trip is simply that fare doubled, booked as one reservation so both directions lock at the same rate. Confirm your ship, date, group size, and drop-off address when you book, and the driver’s details reach you the day before.
Meet-and-greet at the terminal is built in at no charge. A child seat can be added for $15, so families stepping off a cruise need not haul their own across the country. If the group wants to break the drive north for a meal or a quick store run, an extra stop runs $45 per 30 minutes, arranged in advance over WhatsApp. A name sign at the cruise terminal is the other optional add-on, at $40. Each extra is priced and confirmed before your travel day, so nothing surprising lands at drop-off.
Standard pickup hours run from 7 AM to 9 PM. A pickup scheduled outside that window carries a small night fee on the black SUV: $20 when the trip stays inside Miami-Dade or Broward, and $50 once it reaches beyond those counties. Since the town sits well up the coast past Broward, an off-hours SUV pickup on this route falls into the $50 band. As with every charge, it is flagged when you book rather than sprung on you later.
It is a real distance up the coast. Satellite Beach sits on the Space Coast well north of the port, so this counts as an intercity transfer rather than a short cross-town trip. The exact time behind the wheel depends on the hour you leave and how the I-95 corridor is flowing that day. Whatever the traffic does, the per-vehicle fare you locked in does not move with it.
Nothing changes on your side. The driver follows your ship’s real arrival and disembarkation timing and shifts the pickup at no extra cost when you dock late. You never lose the ride or pay a rebooking penalty for a delay outside your control, and the flat fare holds even if the wait stretches out longer than expected.
No — the price is per vehicle, not per head, so five passengers in the black SUV pay the same total as one. That makes a private transfer here strong value for families and groups splitting a single fare across every seat and every cruise bag. One booking carries the whole party in one direction.
Yes. Pickups run from Miami International Airport as well as the Port of Miami, which helps if you are flying in and sailing out, or landing by plane to meet family near Satellite Beach. The same black SUV and van tiers and the same flat, per-vehicle pricing apply. Send your flight or ship details and the driver coordinates the meet.
Lock in your private, one-way ride to Satellite Beach by message or phone. Send your ship or flight, the date, your group size, and the drop-off address, and your driver, vehicle, and plate are confirmed the day before. Message on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748.
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.
At MIA your driver meets you at the arrivals level at the curb, and that greeting is included in the fare. If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign, add the Meet & Greet for $40 when you book. At the cruise port the curbside greeting is always included.
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, the Meet & Greet at MIA, child seats, extra stops or the night fee, each shown in the quote before you pay. Tipping is at your discretion.
Cruising with the kids, we didn’t want any disembarkation-day chaos, so a private van waiting at the terminal Satellite Beach was perfect. The meet-and-greet at the curb was part of it, and we didn’t have to search for anyone.
My husband and I stepped off the ship at PortMiami and had a private car there for us to take us to Satellite Beach. The last thing you want after a cruise is a ride that falls through, and this was there exactly when we needed it. We’ve already booked them for our next cruise out of PortMiami.
Sacar a toda la comitiva del barco y hasta Satellite Beach suele ser un dolor de cabeza, pero una van privada reservada le quitó todo el estrés. Había espacio de sobra para todo el grupo y todas las maletas en una sola van a Satellite Beach.
The two of us booked a private transfer for after the cruise so we wouldn’t deal with the port crowds on the way to Satellite Beach. No line to stand in — we just went straight from the curb to the car.
We didn’t want to wrangle kids and luggage looking for a ride at the port, so we booked a private van to Satellite Beach. No line to stand in — we just walked from the terminal to a car that was already there.
