From $125 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the terminal greeting included in the fare and a $20 name-sign option if you want it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood puts you in Hollywood, the easygoing stretch of coast that sits between Miami and Fort Lauderdale. This is one of South Florida’s most walkable beach towns, and the resort is your base for it: drop your bags at the entrance, and the day opens up in whatever direction you please. After a cruise, that mix of quiet and easy access is exactly what most travelers are looking for.
The centerpiece nearby is the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk, a brick promenade that runs about two and a half miles right along the ocean. It is the kind of place where you can stroll, rent a bike, or find breakfast with the water in view, all within reach of your stay. Inland, downtown gathers around Young Circle, where the ArtsPark hosts open green space and events. A little farther out, the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino marks the skyline with its guitar tower, and West Lake Park adds room to paddle and walk near the coast.
Because Hollywood is compact and built around the shoreline, much of what you came for is close once you arrive. The streets around Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood carry you toward the sand in one direction and toward town in the other, so you are never far from the beach or a place to eat. When your black car pulls up to the door, you step out with your group together and your luggage carried to the curb beside you, ready to settle in and start the trip.
The ride runs straight from PortMiami to Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood, with no shared stops and no detours. Your chauffeur meets your group at your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island, coordinated by message as you clear the hall, then loads the luggage and heads north along I-95 toward Hollywood. It is one private vehicle reserved for your party alone, door to door, with the drop-off right at the resort entrance.
Because weekend mornings are the port’s busiest window, the pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation rather than a fixed clock, and every reservation carries thirty minutes of complimentary wait so the pace of customs never costs you the ride. Gas, standard tolls, and bag assistance are already covered in the flat per-vehicle rate you booked, so nothing changes on the day. You arrive with your group and your bags together, carried from the vehicle to the curb.
Rideshare lines and shared shuttles add waiting and extra stops; a private vehicle leaves when you are ready and goes only where you are going. The fare covers the whole car, the tolls and the fuel.
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.
Rides between 9 PM and 7 AM add a night fee for the SUV: $20 within Miami-Dade and Broward, $50 farther out. Child seats are available for $15 each. An extra stop is billed at $45 per 30 minutes of the detour.
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.
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.
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.
Tras una semana larga en el mar, tener el traslado ya resuelto hasta Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood fue justo lo que necesitaba.
Os pequenos estavam acabados depois de uma semana no mar quando descemos, e uma van privativa já no meio-fio levou todo mundo até Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood inteiros. O carro estava fresco e confortável, um alívio no calor de Miami.
Comfortable ride, no waiting around, and a driver who handled the terminal like a pro. Would book again. Honestly the most stress-free part of the whole trip — ship to hotel door with zero stress.
Our family of five came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver helped with the whole pile of luggage for the ride to Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood. For a reliable way to get from the ship to Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood, it was well worth it.
El grupo entero bajamos de una y fue un alivio tener una van privada lista en la acera para el viaje a Sheldon Ocean Resort Hotel Hollywood — todos en un solo vehículo. Sin caos en el puerto — caminamos de la terminal a un auto que ya estaba ahí. El van estaba impecable, un alivio con el calor de Miami.
