From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Apart Hotel Miami 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.
The driver is outside the PortMiami terminal when you come through, plans around the ship’s real arrival time, and loads the bags. The curbside greeting is covered by the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal is offered for $40. Then it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Apart Hotel Miami sits in Hollywood, the easygoing beach town that sits halfway between Miami and Fort Lauderdale. It keeps a relaxed, beach-town rhythm that fits the pace most travelers desire the moment a cruise ends, and its apartment-style rooms offer you room to spread out and settle in rather than just pass through.
The best part is how close the shoreline is. Staying here puts the sand within a short walk, and plenty of guests trade the ship’s pool for the real thing the same afternoon they step off the boat. You drop your bags, change, and the water is right there waiting. When you are ready to slow down, the neighborhood has an unhurried, walkable feel that makes it simple to stay put.
There is more within simple reach than the beach alone. The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk runs along the sand for strolling, cycling, and open-air meals, while ArtsPark at Young Circle adds green space and events a little inland. The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino gives you a night-out choice close by, and West Lake Park offers quiet water and trails for anyone who wants a calmer stretch of Hollywood. Whether you came for the shore, the food, or a bit of everything, Apart Hotel Miami keeps all of it within a short hop.
The ride is one clean run from the pier to Apart Hotel Miami, with your own vehicle assigned to your group and timed to your ship’s actual arrival. Your driver is staged at your terminal on Dodge Island and organized by message as you walk out, so there is no wandering the curb looking for a ride. Your booking includes sixty minutes of complimentary wait time, which means the pace of the customs line never costs you the pickup within that time.
Once your group is together, luggage goes into the vehicle and stays there, handled at both ends of the journey. From the terminal it is a single, direct route north to Hollywood, ending right at the lobby door of Apart Hotel Miami at the agreed hour. It is one flat fare locked at booking, one vehicle for your group only, and a bilingual chauffeur who knows the port and the road.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
