From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Aloha Resort 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, the Meet & Greet at the terminal adds $40, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Aloha Resort sits in the heart of South Beach, along Collins Avenue at numbers 944 and 926, only a short causeway hop from the cruise terminals on Dodge Island. Staying here puts the shoreline within a few steps of the front door, and plenty of guests trade the ship’s deck for real sand the same afternoon they walk off. It is the kind of address that keeps the beach, the cafes, and the evening stroll all within simple reach once you have dropped your bags.
The blocks around the resort hold much of what draws people to South Beach in the first place. Ocean Drive and its Art Deco Historic District run close by, lined with pastel facades and open-air people-watching. Lummus Park Beach spreads along the sand a short walk away, and the New World Center adds a cultural stop for anyone with an evening to fill. Lincoln Road and its shopping sit a little further inland, a simple outing when you desire a break from the water.
South Beach is where many cruisers choose to stay the night before they sail, and Aloha Resort fits that plan well — a place to settle in, unpack once, and be near the port without being on top of it. Those closing out a cruise find the same appeal in reverse, with a quiet base to unwind before the flight home. Either way, the resort keeps you close to the causeway that links your stay to the ship.
Book the ride before you dock and disembarkation turns into the simple part of the morning. Your driver is staged for your ship’s arrival and meets your group at the curb, at the exact terminal your cruise line uses on Dodge Island, organized by message as you clear the hall. From there the journey runs straight to Aloha Resort with no stops along the way.
The route follows SR A1A and MacArthur Causeway for the 5.4-mile hop, counting on roughly 15 to 17 minutes from terminal to door in anything from light to heavy traffic. Your luggage rides in the vehicle with you, carried to the curb at both ends, and the whole group travels together in one private car. Nothing gets added on the day — the fare you reserve is the fare you pay.
Aloha Resort is 5.7 miles from the Port of Miami by road, about 17 minutes without heavy traffic via MacArthur Causeway. The fare is per vehicle: $89 for the Black SUV, $140 for the Van and $200 for the Van XL. Pickup is at your cruise terminal curb at PortMiami.
