Book with the flight number and the driver watches it land.

Continental Bayside Hotel sits in the heart of Downtown Miami, one of the most walkable corners of the city. Step outside and you are within easy reach of Bayside Marketplace and Bayfront Park, with the waterfront and the shops, cafes, and open-air music that fill this stretch of the bay. It is a practical base whether you are in town for a few nights or connecting straight through to a ship.
The location puts culture close at hand. The Perez Art Museum Miami anchors neighboring Museum Park, and the downtown arena and other galleries are all part of the same compact district. You can spend a morning at a museum, take a walk along the bay, and be back at the hotel without ever needing a car. This is Downtown Miami at its most handy, with plenty to see on foot.
Continental Bayside Hotel also sits close to the PortMiami cruise terminals, which makes it a natural choice for travelers pairing a downtown stay with a sailing. The same reserved ride that brings you from the airport can carry you on toward the port when it is time, so an overnight in the city flows easily into the next leg of the journey. Between the bayfront setting, the museums, and the terminals just minutes away, the hotel keeps the parts of Miami that visitors want most within a short reach. When you reach, you find yourself already in the middle of it all, with the marketplace, the park, and the water waiting just beyond the door.
Your driver is waiting when you land at Miami International Airport, tracking your flight so an early or late arrival is already covered. There is no line to join and no car to hunt for. The driver meets you near the arrivals area, helps load your bags into the reserved vehicle, and walks you to the curb. From there it is a direct, private run to Continental Bayside Hotel, with your luggage riding right along with you.

My husband and I didn’t want to deal with the airport taxi chaos, so we pre-booked a private ride to Continental Bayside Hotel.
We flew into Miami with the kids late at night, and having a driver waiting was a lifesaver. The van was spotless, and the AC was perfect. The driver handled the luggage so we didn’t have to lift a thing after the flight.
