From $140 per vehicle — a private transfer to or from Port of Miami and Costa Hollywood Beach Resort covers 22.8 miles (36.7 km) in about 50–59 minutes door to door, in a black SUV or climate-controlled van with a bilingual driver, at a flat rate. The fare is set when you book and the driver meets your group right at the cruise terminal.
Each fare below is a flat, per-vehicle price set only by how many passengers ride — no metering, no surge, no per-bag add-on.
Booking sets a private vehicle aside for your party alone, sized to your group. Solo travelers, couples, and families up to five take the black SUV; groups of six to nine ride a climate-controlled van, and parties of ten to fourteen take the larger van. After you clear customs and collect your bags, the driver meets you curbside at the terminal and loads the vehicle — there is ample room for cruise luggage. From there it is a direct, door-to-door run north to the resort entrance, with no transfers and no other passengers along the way. Reserve over WhatsApp or the website with your ship name, terminal, and sailing date, and the driver confirms the pickup before you sail. That advance detail is what keeps a crowded debarkation morning moving instead of leaving you to flag down a ride at the curb.
The drive covers 22.8 miles (36.7 km) and runs about 50 minutes off-peak, stretching to roughly 59 minutes at peak. Drivers head north out of PortMiami and pick up the I-95 EXPR express lanes, which skip the slower local stretches through downtown Miami and the northern suburbs. The widest swing comes on heavy disembarkation mornings: when several ships clear the terminal together, the queue out of the port and the merge onto the interstate add the bulk of that off-peak-to-peak gap. Afternoon and mid-morning departures commonly land near the 50-minute mark, while a late-evening run can be quicker still with lighter traffic on the road.
Costa Hollywood Beach Resort sits steps from Hollywood Beach and its wood-planked Broadwalk on Florida’s Atlantic coast, between Miami and Fort Lauderdale. The resort wraps a palm-lined pool courtyard with dining, and the sand is a short stroll away. The Broadwalk runs about two and a half miles past cafes, ice-cream stands, and bike rentals, drawing cruisers who desire a relaxed beach day before or after sailing. Margaritaville and the Hollywood Beach Theatre sit neighboring for evening entertainment. For details from the source, see the Costa Hollywood Beach Resort official site or the region overview on the Visit Lauderdale resort listing.
The resort is itself the natural base on this stretch of Hollywood Beach, with rooms opening toward the Broadwalk and the Atlantic. If it is full, the surrounding Hollywood Beach and Hallandale Beach areas hold a range of oceanfront and Intracoastal options within a few minutes’ drive. We hold the transfer to your exact arrival or departure time wherever you land, so your check-in or your sailing schedule sets the pickup.
The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk is the headline — a flat, pedestrian path along the sand lined with casual restaurants, juice bars, and rental kiosks, all reachable on foot from the resort. The beach itself is a couple of minutes away. Hollywood’s North Beach Park and the fishing pier sit a little farther along the shore for a longer walk. It is an easy area to explore on foot with a few hours before boarding or after debarking.
Daytime pickups between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM carry no surcharge. Trips that start outside those hours add a modest amount on top of the fare, by vehicle type:
The driver meets your group curbside right outside the cruise terminal as you exit, after you collect your bags and clear customs. Request a name sign over WhatsApp in advance and the driver holds it at the pickup point so you spot them rapidly. Send your ship name and terminal number when you book so the driver knows exactly where to stage for your arrival.
Yes — disembarkation mornings are the core of this service. Send your ship and terminal when you book, and the driver tracks the schedule to be in position as your group clears the terminal. On mornings when several ships dock together the run can take longer, but your pickup time flexes to your actual debark, not a fixed clock.
Yes — offer your ship name and sailing date and the driver monitors its docking and debark times, then shifts the pickup if the ship arrives or clears late. There is no re-booking fee and no scramble for a new car if customs runs long; the reserved vehicle merely waits for your group, within the free waiting time, rather than moving on like a metered ride would.
The fare is per vehicle, not per person — your whole group rides for the one flat price set by vehicle size in the list above. Five passengers in the SUV pay the same as one. That is why a family or group sharing a single van almost always comes out lower than per-seat options.
Yes — the vehicles run door to door with space for your cruise luggage, so a full set of checked bags and carry-ons rides with your group. Let us know your party size when you book and the right tier is assigned to keep everyone and their bags comfortable for the trip up from the port.
Pets are not accepted; certified service animals are welcome with advance notice.
A round trip is double the one-way fare in the price list above, booked together as a single reservation. Booking both legs at once locks your return pickup before you sail, so the driver is set for both your arrival and your departure day without a second search later.
A more coordinated, premium service — flat fare, named driver, cruise-terminal pickup — at a significantly lower total cost than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

Lock in your private transfer before you sail. Send your ship name, terminal, sailing date, group size, and pickup time over WhatsApp or the website, and you’ll have a confirmed flat fare and a named driver waiting at the curb. Booking ahead matters most on hectic debarkation mornings, when terminal traffic is heaviest — reserve early to hold your preferred vehicle tier and time slot.
