From $100 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort 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.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. Meet-and-greet at the terminal is included; a name-sign welcome is available for an extra $20. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort sits in Doral, the golf-and-business district that spreads across Miami’s western grid. This is the part of town where corporate Miami keeps its offices, where a famous golf resort anchors the map, and where CityPlace lines up its dining a short drive from the hotel door. Travelers coming off a cruise land in a calmer, greener pocket than the beachfront — wide avenues, open sky, and room to breathe after days at sea.
Doral draws two crowds in particular, and the resort sits comfortably between them. Golfers come for the fairways that made the area’s name; business travelers come for the meetings and the campuses that fill the surrounding blocks. That mix gives the neighborhood its rhythm — quieter than Downtown, more spread out from the crowd, and built around the car. Your ride drops you in the middle of it, right at the resort entrance.
Getting here from the ship keeps things simple. The route runs along SR-836, roughly 13.7 miles from the terminal, and the drive normally takes 30 to 37 minutes depending on the hour. Once you arrive, the entrance is where the car stops and where your bags come out beside you. If you’re building extra days around the stay, Doral puts you within easy reach of Dolphin Mall, the wider shopping runs, and the corporate side of the city — all of it a short hop from the resort you booked.
The trip starts at your own terminal on Dodge Island, staged for the moment your group clears the exit. Your chauffeur meets you at the curb, takes the luggage, and loads it into a vehicle reserved for your party alone. From there it’s a straight run to Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort — no other pickups and no rounds. The route follows SR-836 for the roughly 13.7-mile hop, which usually runs 30 to 37 minutes.
Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest stretch, with thousands of passengers stepping off ships at once, so the pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation rather than a guessed clock. The SR-836 traffic is already built into the plan. When you reach Doral, the driver pulls up to the resort entrance and carries your bags to the curb beside you. Traveling the other way on embarkation day works the same, planned around your ship’s schedule.
One vehicle, one party, one fixed price: nobody else boards, the route runs straight to the door, and the driver handles the bags at both ends. It is the simplest way to start or end a trip without lines, apps or surprises.
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.
Yes, outside 7 AM to 9 PM the SUV adds $20 inside Miami-Dade or Broward and $50 beyond those counties. Child seats can be added for $15, and stops on the way cost $45 per 30 minutes.
Count passengers and bags and the vehicle follows: the SUV for up to 5 with luggage, the vans for 6-9 or 10-14. There is no splitting a group across cars.
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.
After our sailing, my partner and I weren’t going to gamble on a ride at the terminal, so we lined up a private car to Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort. An easy, smooth handoff for the two of us — off the ship and into Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort with nothing left to sort out. Booking was simple, we got a solid confirmation, and everything went exactly as planned.
Comfortable ride, easy pickup, and a driver who handled the terminal like a pro. Would book again. We went from the terminal to a real bed with no stress at all.
There were nine of us stepping off at PortMiami, and one private transfer to Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort was far simpler than splitting into cars. Getting to Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort with no detours meant we could drop the bags and start the day. The fare was locked in at booking, no surprise on a busy disembarkation morning.
The two of us cruised from PortMiami and having a private car meet us at the terminal for the ride over to Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort took all the stress out of it.
We cruised with a big crew and wanted all of us and the bags in one private ride to Doral Saturnia International Spa Resort after disembarking. We knew the plan before the ship even docked, so there was no guessing at the port.
