From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Bikini Hostel in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way journey, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
Give us the flight number and the driver plans the pickup around the actual arrival. The greeting at the MIA arrivals curb is included; the Meet & Greet inside the terminal with a name sign is a $40 add-on. Bags go in, doors close, and the vehicle leaves for the destination without sharing the ride with anyone else.
Bikini Hostel sits close to the coast, near enough to South Beach that a stay here frequently starts just steps from the sand. That location is the whole appeal: you can check in, drop your bags, change, and head straight out to the water without a long trek across town. It makes an easygoing base for travelers who would rather spend their time outside than in transit, with the beach and the busiest part of the neighborhood both within simple reach.
Once you have settled in, some of the region’s top-known spots are close by. Ocean Drive and the Lincoln Road Mall are among the nearest landmarks, and Lummus Park Beach sits within simple reach of South Beach as well. The New World Center is also close enough to fold into a day of walking. From the door you are set up to discover on foot, moving between the sand, the cafes, and the shops without needing to plan much in advance or reach for a car.
South Beach itself packs a lot into a small footprint. The Art Deco Historic District, the cafe strip along Ocean Drive, and the Lincoln Road pedestrian mall all sit within a few walkable blocks beside the sand, so an afternoon can drift effortlessly from breakfast to the beach to an evening stroll. Staying near this stretch means the parts of the neighborhood most visitors come to see are already around you when you step out of Bikini Hostel.
The ride runs door to door. After you land at MIA, the driver tracks your flight and meets you once you clear the terminal, then helps with the bags and gets you loaded into a vehicle held for your party alone. From there it is roughly 10.2 miles to Bikini Hostel by way of the Dolphin Expressway and SR-836 Toll, a journey that commonly takes about 21 to 27 minutes depending on how traffic is moving.
Your luggage rides with you the whole way, and there are no detours or extra stops you did not ask for. Traffic on those roads is really the only variable, and because the driver is following your flight, an early or late arrival is handled without a new booking. You settle in, and the driver takes the route straight through to the door of Bikini Hostel.

Vale cada peso. muy paciente con yo, y no hubo que buscar a nadie, el auto estaba donde dijeron.
We weren’t going to juggle luggage and kids in a taxi line, so we set up a private car from the airport to Bikini Hostel. The driver loaded all our bags so we didn’t have to lift a thing after the flight.
Vinimos con amigos y queríamos a todos en un solo viaje privado desde el aeropuerto. Rastrearon el aterrizaje, así que aunque llegamos tarde, el auto ya estaba ahí.
Flying into Miami on my own, I wasn’t up for the taxi line after a long flight, so I booked a private ride to Bikini Hostel. I liked it enough that I booked the same company for the ride back to the airport.
