From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Gasparilla Inn Beach Club 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.
Arrivals at MIA can feel hectic, so the meeting point is simple: the driver, already aware of your landing time from the flight tracking, waits at the arrivals level. The standard curbside greeting costs nothing extra, and a name-sign pickup inside the hall is offered for $20. After that, the trip is private and direct.
Gasparilla Inn Beach Club sits in Boca Grande, a small coastal town well down Florida’s southwest shore. It is a genuine distance from Miami, and that remove is part of the appeal — the town keeps a quiet, low-key pace that visitors travel a long way to find. Your private ride covers the entire route and sets you down right at the entrance, so the final approach is handled for you rather than left to chance at the end of a long day of travel.
Boca Grande has an unhurried, old-Florida feel — the kind of place where the days slow down and the coast does the talking. Because the club sits away from the busier resort corridors, getting there takes some planning, and a car that runs straight through from the airport keeps that part simple. You are not changing vehicles or piecing the trip together along the way; the same driver stays with you from the arrivals level all the way to the door.
When you pull in, the driver brings you right to the entrance with your luggage, so you step out where you are staying and nowhere else. Wherever in the area your room sits, the transfer carries you to it. After hours on the road, arriving with your bags carried in and the car waiting at the door is a calmer way to begin the stay than sorting out the last leg on your own.
This is a long haul, so plan on roughly 205 to 214 minutes door to door, mostly along I-75, with traffic deciding where you land in that window. Because it is one continuous ride in a car reserved for your group alone, there are no connections to make on the way — you settle in once at the airport and stay put until the entrance in Boca Grande. Off-peak the drive runs quicker; heavier traffic pushes it toward the longer end.
After you land at MIA, the driver watches your flight and is waiting when you come through the arrivals level, so a delay simply moves the pickup rather than costing you the ride. Your bags go straight into the vehicle, then it is a single run north to the door of Gasparilla Inn Beach Club, with the driver handling the route the whole way.
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.
Half of the fare is paid at booking as a deposit and the rest is settled with the driver on the day, cash or card. The price is per vehicle for the one-way trip.
A child seat can be installed for $20 when you book. Night service, meaning 9 PM to 7 AM, adds $20 to the SUV inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 beyond. Extra stops are metered at $45 per 30 minutes.
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.
To book, WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748. Share the date, the number of travelers and bags, and we lock in the driver.
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.
Vinimos a Florida de luna de miel y arrancar con una recogida privada fue la decisión correcta. Sin fila de taxis, sin tarifas dinámicas — salimos y el auto ya estaba listo.
First time flying into MIA solo, and having someone right there at arrivals made it so easy. It was a private car just for me, which made the ride to Gasparilla Inn Beach Club easy and calm.
As a solo traveler I arranged the airport pickup to Gasparilla Inn Beach Club ahead of time, and it made arriving painless. They tracked the landing, so even though I landed late, the car was right there. Honestly the smoothest part of my whole trip — arrival was completely stress-free.
After a long flight, the last thing we wanted was to hunt for a car — so glad we booked the transfer to Gasparilla Inn Beach Club. Landing late at night, it was a huge comfort to have a private car already waiting instead of a taxi gamble.
Para una llegada tranquila, mi esposa y yo reservamos esto para ir de MIA directo a Gasparilla Inn Beach Club. El conductor era hablaba inglés y español sin problema, lo que hizo coordinar los detalles mucho más fácil. Un comienzo tranquilo y fácil para los dos de vacaciones.
