From $110 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Blackbird Caye Resort 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.
Tell us the ship and the driver times the pickup to its arrival, then waits at your terminal’s curb at PortMiami. The curbside greeting there is included in the fare; the Meet & Greet at the terminal is a $40 add-on. From the port the ride is direct, with no other passengers.
Blackbird Caye Resort sits in the West Tamiami part of Miami, along the Miami–Fort Lauderdale corridor. It is the address your private transfer is built around: the chauffeur runs straight from the cruise terminal to the property with no other stops on the way. When you book with us, the vehicle is reserved for your party alone, so the whole group travels together from PortMiami to the resort entrance on a single flat fare that already covers fuel and typical tolls.
On arrival, the driver brings you to the entrance itself rather than dropping you at a neighboring lot. Bags are handled for you from the moment they leave the vehicle, so you step out at Blackbird Caye Resort and the luggage follows. For the return leg, pickup happens at the lobby door at the hour you agree on, timed around your own schedule. A real person confirms the details in advance, in English or Spanish, so nothing about the plan is left to guessing.
Group size is never a problem at the door. An SUV carries up to five with a checked bag and a carry-on each; the six-to-nine van suits families and friends traveling together with room for their cruise luggage; the ten-to-fourteen van brings a full party and its bags in one vehicle. Whatever the count, the ride to Blackbird Caye Resort is yours solely, door to door, with a chauffeur who knows the terminals and the roads in between.
Book the ride before you dock, and disembarkation turns into the simple part. Your chauffeur is staged at the terminal before you clear the arrivals hall, so the wait belongs to the driver, not to you. Terminal pickups are timed to disembarkation and come with sixty minutes of free waiting, which means a long customs line never costs you the ride within that time. You are met curbside at your terminal, the bags are loaded at the port, and the run to Blackbird Caye Resort begins.
From there it is a single, direct leg along SR-836 and Florida’s Turnpike Thru Lanes, roughly forty-seven to sixty-nine minutes terminal to door depending on the hour and the traffic. There are no pooling stops and no detours added along the way. The luggage rides with you in the same vehicle from curb to entrance, and the chauffeur handles it at both ends.
