From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Avalon Hotel Miami 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.
The driver monitors the flight and is at the arrivals level when you walk out, with the curbside meet-and-greet already covered by the fare. Travelers who desire the Meet & Greet, a name sign inside the terminal, can add it for $40. Luggage is loaded by the driver and the ride runs private, door to door.
Avalon Hotel Miami sits along Ocean Drive at the southern tip of Miami Beach, right in the heart of the Art Deco Historic District. This is the postcard version of the city — a row of pastel Art Deco buildings facing a broad public beach, with the ocean just across the street. The hotel puts you on one of the most walkable stretches in South Beach, where the architecture, the water, and the street life are all within a few steps of the front door.
Step outside and much of what draws people to South Beach is close by. Ocean Drive runs right past, and Española Way, a pedestrian lane of cafes and shops, is a simple walk. Lincoln Road Mall, the open-air promenade lined with stores and restaurants, sits within reach as well. The surrounding Art Deco Historic District is worth wandering on its own, block after block of restored 1930s facades. You can leave the car behind once you reach and cover most of it on foot.
Top of all is how close the water stays. From Avalon Hotel Miami the beach is a short walk or drive, so many travelers drop their bags and head straight for the sand the same day they land. Here for a weekend or a longer stay, you will locate the beach, the dining, and the Art Deco streets all within a simple radius, so your time goes to enjoying the neighborhood rather than getting to it.
Your ride to Avalon Hotel Miami is door to door and reserved for your group alone. The driver tracks your flight, so a delay merely moves the pickup, and meets you after you clear the terminal at MIA. From there it is one straightforward leg by the Dolphin Expressway and SR-836 Toll, luggage loaded and the whole car held for you. The driver is ready when you step out, so there is no queue and no wondering where the car is.
Plan on roughly 22 to 27 minutes for the trip, quicker when the roads are clear and toward the higher end during the morning and late-afternoon rush. Tolls and fuel are already covered, so nothing is added along the way. When you reach the hotel, the driver pulls up to the door and helps with the bags, a peaceful and direct arrival that lets your trip start the moment you land.
