From $110 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Commodore Inn the Grove in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The prices are flat and quoted per vehicle for the whole one-way ride: no meter, no surge, nothing added at the curb.
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.
Commodore Inn the Grove sits at 3162 Commodore Plaza in Miami, 33133, right in the heart of Coconut Grove. The address puts you steps from one of the city’s oldest and leafiest neighborhoods, a walkable pocket where the pace slows and the streets stay shaded. When your driver pulls up, the group is set down at the main entrance, bags carried the last few feet so nobody is dragging luggage across the sidewalk.
Coconut Grove keeps a village feel under a canopy of banyans. Within a short stroll you have sidewalk dining, the shops and open-air walkways of CocoWalk, and the sailboats moored down at Dinner Key. The gardens of Vizcaya sit up the road, and the neighborhood rewards anyone who likes to wander on foot between a coffee stop and the waterfront. It is a real place with its own rhythm, not a strip of chain signs, and that character starts the moment you step out at the door.
The stay works well as a base whether you are in town for a night before the ship or settling in after the cruise. Peacock Park and Dinner Key Marina are close by, and the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens are a simple reach when you desire a slower afternoon. Your driver knows this corner of the map and takes you door to door, so you skip the terminal crowd and land where you actually need to be. Tell us the property and the exact address and the drop-off is planned around the streets nearest your stay, not a vague neighborhood pin.
After you clear the ship and walk off, the pickup is organized by message so your driver meets the group at the curb of your own terminal on Dodge Island. From there it is a straightforward run toward Coconut Grove along US-1, the whole party in one reserved vehicle with the luggage loaded and nothing balanced on a sidewalk. Budget roughly 21 to 25 minutes depending on the hour, and know that the traffic on that stretch is already built into the plan rather than sprung on you at the end.
The vehicle is held for your group alone, door to door, so there are no extra stops and no waiting on someone else’s schedule. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest window, with thousands of passengers coming off the ships at once, which is exactly why the pickup is timed to your real disembarkation instead of a guessed slot. Offer us the cruise line and arrival date and the car is staged at the correct terminal, ready to carry you straight to the entrance at Commodore Inn the Grove.
