From $100 per vehicle: private one-way ride, Port of Miami to Candlewood Suites Miami Intl Airport – 36th St, an IHG Hotel.
One number per vehicle covers the full trip one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
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.
Candlewood Suites Miami Intl Airport – 36th St, an IHG Hotel sits in the MIA Airport District, the cluster of blocks built around Blue Lagoon where transit days are the whole point. The hotel rows line NW 36th Street, office parks ring the lakes, and expressways run off in every direction, so wherever you are headed next the road is close.
For a traveler stepping off a cruise, that location is the appeal. You are minutes from the terminals when it is time to fly out, and close to the district’s dining and business addresses when you want to stay put for the night. The setting is practical rather than scenic, which is exactly what a between-legs stop should be.
Your driver brings you straight to the hotel entrance, bags carried to the door beside you, so arrival is a short walk to the lobby rather than a wrestle with luggage on the curb. Tell us the property and we handle the rest of the run.
This is a private, door-to-door run reserved for your group alone. Your driver waits at your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island, timed to your disembarkation, with a courtesy wait window built in so a slow customs line never costs you the ride. There is no taxi queue to join and no luggage-on-the-sidewalk scramble.
Once you are aboard, every bag rides in the vehicle with you and the route follows the Airport Expressway toward the MIA Airport District. The car drops the whole party at the Candlewood Suites entrance, luggage carried to the door. On embarkation day the same private run works in reverse, hotel lobby to pier.
The car waits for you, not the other way around. Your group travels together with the luggage in the same vehicle, the fare is known before the ride, and the driver takes the direct route to the destination.
Booking takes a 50% deposit; the other half goes to the driver when the ride is done, by cash or card. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
Daytime service runs 7 AM to 9 PM; outside that window the SUV carries a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 beyond. A child seat is fitted on request for $15. Extra stops along the way are $45 per 30 minutes.
Up to five people ride in the SUV; larger parties move to a 6-to-9 or 10-to-14 passenger van so everyone and every bag travels together in one vehicle.
Up to 12 hours before pickup you can change passengers, luggage or extras. Dates are locked at booking and do not move.
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.
Desembarcando solo, tenía un conductor esperando en la terminal para el viaje a Candlewood Suites Miami Intl Airport – 36th St, an IHG Hotel — sin nada librado al azar. La noche anterior recibí un texto con el nombre del conductor y la placa, así que no quedaba nada por resolver al salir. Reservar fue fácil, recibí todo por escrito, y todo coincidió con lo prometido.
Our family of five came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver had room for all the suitcases for the ride to Candlewood Suites Miami Intl Airport – 36th St, an IHG Hotel. The last thing you want after a week at sea is a ride that falls through, and this was reliable and on time.
My husband and I wanted a clean handoff outside the terminal, so we booked a private ride to Candlewood Suites Miami Intl Airport – 36th St, an IHG Hotel before we even sailed. There was a name sign at the terminal doors, so we spotted the driver immediately.
After our sailing, my wife and I didn’t feel like chasing a ride at the terminal, so we pre-booked a private car to Candlewood Suites Miami Intl Airport – 36th St, an IHG Hotel. We went from the ship to the front desk of Candlewood Suites Miami Intl Airport – 36th St, an IHG Hotel with zero hassle along the way.
The kids were half asleep when we walked off, and a private van right at the terminal got everyone to Candlewood Suites Miami Intl Airport – 36th St, an IHG Hotel in one piece. The fare was locked in at booking, nothing added at the curb.
