From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Candlewood Suites Miami – Doral in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
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.
Candlewood Suites Miami – Doral sits in Doral, the golf-and-business city that spreads west of the airport. This is a part of Miami built around championship courses, corporate campuses, and the shops and dining at CityPlace Doral, so the neighborhood around the hotel leans practical and expert rather than beachy. Arriving straight off a cruise, you land in a peaceful, workaday corner of the metro that is simple to settle into.
The hotel works well for the kind of stays Doral draws. Business travelers in for meetings, families extending a cruise into a few more nights, and groups coordinating a corporate sailing all locate the location handy to the courses, the corporate offices, and the CityPlace Doral shopping and restaurants neighboring. Because Doral is spread out and car-oriented, having your ride planned to the door means you are not left guessing how to cross the city with your luggage after a long day on the water.
We handle only the ride itself, from the cruise terminal to the hotel entrance. Anything about the room, rates, or the stay itself lives on Candlewood Suites Miami – Doral’s own official page. For groups sailing out of Doral for a corporate journey, one organized pickup is far simpler than a scatter of separate cars and receipts: one vehicle, one invoice, one arrival time, with the whole party moving together to the same door.
Once your ship clears and your group reaches the exit, the car is already staged for the terminal curb. Your chauffeur loads every bag at the curb, so there is no dragging luggage across the port, and the ride to Candlewood Suites Miami – Doral runs as a single, direct leg out of the terminal. The vehicle is reserved for your party alone, door to door, with fuel and typical tolls already covered in the flat rate.
The run covers roughly 14.7 miles and normally takes 30 to 43 minutes, quiet hours to rush hour, along SR-836. Traffic on that road is the main variable, which is why the pickup follows your ship’s actual arrival with room to spare rather than a slot cut to the minute. Sixty minutes of courtesy wait is built into every port pickup, so a slow disembarkation does not cost you the car. Heading back for embarkation day, the same flat one-way rate covers the reverse leg from the hotel to the pier.
