From $100 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, a name-sign pickup adds $20, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside sits on the quiet north end of the island, where North Beach, Surfside, and Bal Harbour trade the crowded party stretch for room to breathe. Instead of nightlife, this end of the shore leans into space — broad beaches, an oceanfront walking path, and low-key residential blocks that stay calm even in the middle of the season. It is the kind of address travelers pick when they want the ocean close and the noise far.
For a cruise traveler coming straight off the ship, the appeal is simple: the shoreline is right there. Plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they disembark, dropping their bags and walking to the water without a second leg of travel. The hotel side of the stay — amenities, luggage holds, early check-in — is spelled out on the property’s own page, so you can confirm those details directly before your date.
If you decide to linger after the sailing, the surrounding north end gives you plenty of easy reasons to stay put. Bal Harbour Shops and the Surfside beachwalk are close by, and the North Beach Bandshell and Haulover Park sit nearby as well, all within the same relaxed stretch of the island. It is a neighborhood built for slow mornings and unhurried afternoons — a fitting landing spot after days at sea, with the beach as your front yard and none of the downtown rush pressing in on you.
This is a door-to-door private run from your cruise terminal straight to Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside. You are met curbside at your own ship’s terminal — not a parking lot — and your driver is staged before you clear the arrivals hall, so the wait is theirs and not yours. Your luggage rides inside the vehicle with you, loaded and unloaded by the chauffeur at both ends, and the whole group travels together in one vehicle reserved for you alone.
From the pier it is one straight run along Julia Tuttle Causeway and I-195 to the north end of the island, ending right at the door of Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside. Plan on roughly 30 to 33 minutes depending on the hour, since disembarkation mornings stack up fast at the terminal exits. Because the pickup is timed to your ship’s actual arrival rather than app availability, you step out of the hall and into your ride with no line to stand in.
Booking the ride in advance locks the price and the vehicle size, puts a driver on your arrival time, and turns the first leg of the trip into the easiest one. The group stays together and the luggage rides with you.
No. A 50% deposit secures the booking and the remaining half is paid to the driver on the day, cash or card. Nothing else is charged unless you add an extra service.
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.
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.
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.
Message us on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 with your date, passenger count and luggage, and we confirm the vehicle and the pickup details.
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.
I didn’t want to gamble on a ride the morning I got off the ship, so I booked a private car from the terminal to Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside.
There were nine of us stepping off at PortMiami, and one private transfer to Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside was far simpler than splitting into cars.
Our family of five came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver helped with the whole pile of luggage for the ride to Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside.
As a solo cruiser I pre-booked a private transfer from the terminal to Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside for disembarkation morning, and it took all the guesswork out of it.
Mi esposa y yo no estábamos para líos afuera de la terminal, así que coordinamos un viaje privado a Days Inn Miami Beach / Oceanside antes de zarpar. Había un cartel con nuestro nombre en la acera, así que ubicamos al conductor sin buscar nada.
