From $140 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Coconut Bay Resort 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.
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.
Coconut Bay Resort sits along the coast near Fort Lauderdale, close enough to the water that many stays begin only steps from the sand. It is the kind of place that lets you unpack once and head straight out, with the beach and the open air waiting the moment you arrive. For travelers coming off a flight, that short walk from room to shoreline is the whole appeal — the journey ends and the vacation starts in the same breath.
The setting also puts you within simple reach of some of Fort Lauderdale’s best-known spots. The Riverwalk traces the New River through the heart of town, and Las Olas Boulevard lines up dining rooms and galleries a short journey away. Port Everglades and its cruise terminals sit nearby, which makes the resort a simple choice if a ship is part of your plans, since you can settle in the night before and reach the pier without a long haul on the day you sail.
There is more to locate when you feel like wandering. The Bonnet House, a historic estate with gardens and grounds, and Hugh Taylor Birch State Park both fall within relaxing reach of Fort Lauderdale, giving you green space and old-Florida character alongside the beachfront. Between the promenade, the New River waterways, and the quieter corners nearby, Coconut Bay Resort keeps you close to the parts of Fort Lauderdale most visitors come to see — whether the plan is a full stay by the water or a single night before boarding.
The ride from Miami International Airport to Coconut Bay Resort is a single private leg, door to door. Your driver is watching your flight, so a late landing merely moves the pickup — there is nothing to re-book. When you reach the arrivals level, the driver is waiting to meet you, takes the bags, and walks you to the vehicle, so the first thing you do after a long flight is sit down rather than search a curb.
From there it is a straight run north with your luggage loaded and the whole car reserved for your group, no shared seats and no added stops. Plan on roughly 54 to 67 minutes to reach Coconut Bay Resort, quicker off-peak and toward the longer end in rush-hour traffic. Tolls and fuel are already built into the flat fare, so the total you agreed at booking is the total you pay when you arrive.
