From $175 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to The Ocean Resort Residences in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The prices are flat and quoted per vehicle for the whole one-way ride: no meter, no surge, nothing added at the curb.
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 the Meet & Greet inside the hall, name sign in hand, is offered for $40. After that, the trip is private and direct.
The Ocean Resort Residences sits right on the sand at 551 N Fort Lauderdale Beach Blvd, on the beachfront edge of Fort Lauderdale. It is a barefoot address in the best sense: the ocean is a short walk or drive away, so plenty of travelers add a beach stop the same day they arrive. The building faces the water directly, which puts you a step from the shoreline as soon as you settle in.
The setting is a quick reach to the parts of Fort Lauderdale people come for. Las Olas Boulevard and its shops and dining are close, and Fort Lauderdale Beach is at the doorstep. The Riverwalk and the historic Bonnet House are both within easy reach, so a day can move from the sand to the boulevard to the canal-lined side of town without much distance in between. Fort Lauderdale itself is known for its beach and its network of waterways, and this stretch of the coast is one of its easiest to settle into.
Because the residences sit near Port Everglades, the address works well for a cruise as well as a beach stay. A schedule to keep is common here, and a flat-rate private car with a set pickup keeps meetings and connections around Fort Lauderdale tight and predictable. Whether you are arriving for a stretch on the beach or a departure from the port, the location keeps the water, the boulevard, and the terminal all within a short ride of your door.
The trip runs from the arrivals level at Miami International Airport straight to The Ocean Resort Residences, door to door, in your own reserved vehicle. After you clear the terminal, your driver meets you curbside, helps with the luggage, and walks you to the car, so there is no line to join and no app to open once you land. The route heads north up I-95 as one smooth ride, with your bags in the vehicle the whole way.
Your pickup is timed to your actual landing, not a guessed clock time. The driver watches your flight, so an early or late arrival simply moves the pickup, at no extra charge and with no need to re-book. The fare is per vehicle and set when you book, which means the whole group rides for the one flat price, with tolls and fuel already covered on the way to Fort Lauderdale.
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.
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.
Yes, outside 7 AM to 9 PM the SUV adds $20 inside Miami-Dade or Broward and $50 beyond those counties. One child seat or booster is included and each additional one is $20, and stops on the way cost $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.
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. The first seat or booster is included with your booking, each additional one is $20, and they are 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.
After a long flight, the last thing we wanted was to hunt for a car — so glad we booked the transfer to The Ocean Resort Residences. The SUV was clean, cool, and comfortable, and the AC was perfect. The driver was professional and courteous, exactly what you want after a flight.
Como viajero independiente, reservé la recogida en el aeropuerto a The Ocean Resort Residences con anticipación, e hizo la llegada muy fácil. Reservar fue fácil, recibí una confirmación clara, y todo coincidió con lo que me dijeron.
My partner and I wanted to skip the airport taxi chaos, so we pre-booked a private ride to The Ocean Resort Residences. Landing late at night, it was a huge comfort to have a private car already waiting instead of hunting for a ride. No taxi line, no rideshare surge — we just walked out and the car was there.
The two of us landed at MIA for our anniversary and had a driver waiting the moment we came out of baggage claim. Landing late at night, it was so reassuring to have a private car already waiting instead of hunting for a ride. The driver was in a sharp, clean car, exactly what you want after a flight.
Loved it — so much better than a taxi. Honestly the smoothest part of our whole trip — arrival was completely stress-free.
