From $100 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hotel One Miami beach in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
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.
Hotel One Miami beach puts the shoreline within a few steps, which is why so many cruise travelers pick it for the night before they sail or the afternoon they step off the ship. It is a beachfront address where the sand is the main event, an easy causeway hop from the cruise terminals rather than a long haul across the city. The location trades the pace of a working port for open water and a slower rhythm, all within the same corner of Miami.
The neighborhood around it is South Beach, the part of Miami many cruisers make a point of staying in. Ocean Drive is built for people-watching, the Art Deco hotels give the streets their pastel character, and Lincoln Road turns shopping and dining into an evening of its own. None of it is far, and most of it is walkable once your bags are dropped and the car has pulled away.
On arrival the appeal is simple: real sand instead of the ship’s pool deck, often the same afternoon you disembark. Plenty of guests check in, leave the luggage, and are on the beach within the hour. If your trip also touches the airport on either end, the same private vehicles and flat pricing can cover that leg, so the whole day stays on one plan. Hotel One Miami beach works whether you are settling in before embarkation or unwinding after a week at sea, with the water and the Art Deco streets both close at hand.
Book the ride before you dock and disembarkation becomes the easy part. Your reserved vehicle waits at the exact terminal your cruise line uses, the chauffeur handles the bags at the curb, and the car runs straight to Hotel One Miami beach with no stops along the way. The route follows MacArthur Causeway and SR A1A, a single direct leg that usually takes about 21 to 23 minutes depending on the hour and the traffic.
Because ships rarely clear every passenger at the same minute, the pickup is planned around your ship’s actual arrival, with 30 minutes of courtesy wait built in to absorb customs and the luggage hall. You walk out, the vehicle is there, and the shoreline is the next stop. Coming back for embarkation day works the same way at the same flat rate, with the driver meeting you at the hotel entrance and loading the bags for the return to the terminal.
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.
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.
The regular window is 7 AM to 9 PM; night pickups in the SUV add $20 in Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 elsewhere. A child seat is $15 on request, and any added stop is $45 per 30 minutes.
The SUV seats up to 5 with their luggage; the 6-9 and 10-14 passenger vans keep bigger groups together. Send the head count and bag count and the vehicle is matched to them.
Send any change to the party or extras at least 12 hours before the pickup. The booked date is final.
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.
Coming ashore by myself, I had a driver there with my name on a sign for the ride to Hotel One Miami beach — nothing left to chance.
The stress-free way to get from the ship to Hotel One Miami beach. Would book again in a heartbeat.
The two of us cruised from PortMiami and having a private car meet us at the terminal for the ride over to Hotel One Miami beach took all the stress out of it. Honestly the smoothest part of the whole trip — the port end was completely handled. The ride from the terminal to Hotel One Miami beach was smooth and steady, and we could just watch the city go by.
Mi esposa y yo no estábamos para líos afuera de la terminal, así que reservamos un viaje privado a Hotel One Miami beach antes de zarpar. El auto estaba fresco y cómodo, con lugar para todo.
For an easy morning off the ship, my partner and I had a private driver meet us at the cruise terminal to run us over to Hotel One Miami beach. There was a generous grace period from the agreed time, so we never had to rush off the ship. The car was roomy enough for all the cruise luggage, and there was space for everything.
