From $110 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Candlewood Suites Miami Lakes 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.
Offer 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.
Candlewood Suites Miami Lakes is your base up in Miami Lakes, a community that belongs to the broader Miami–Fort Lauderdale corridor rather than the hectic core near the water. It is the sort of address people select for a longer, settled stay — close enough to the airport to reach without a long haul, yet set back from the crowds of the coast. Whatever building or entrance your reservation points to in the region, the transfer runs straight there and stops at the door.
Getting there from the terminal is meant to feel simple from the first minute. Rather than sorting out a route after a flight, you step out to a car that is already reserved for you, and the drive north to Miami Lakes happens while you do nothing but settle in. There are no added stops and no handoff to a second vehicle along the way — one car, one group, one straight run to Candlewood Suites Miami Lakes.
For the hotel itself — the rooms, the check-in details, anything about the property — the official Candlewood Suites Miami Lakes page is the place to look; our part is the ride there and back. What we can promise on our side is a door-to-door arrival: the driver knows the local roads around Miami Lakes, brings you to the exact entrance, and leaves you at the start of your stay instead of somewhere you then have to walk from.
The journey begins the moment you clear arrivals. Your driver is already tracking the flight, so an early or delayed landing is handled without a new booking, and you are met after the terminal with a hand for the luggage and a walk to the vehicle. From there the route heads out on the Palmetto Expressway and SR-826 toward Miami Lakes, and the bags ride with you in the same car the whole way.
Plan on roughly 24 to 38 minutes for the run, quicker off-peak and slower through rush hour; traffic on those two highways is the only real variable. Because the car is held only for your group, there is nothing to share and no curbside wait — you get in, and the next stop is the door at Candlewood Suites Miami Lakes.
