From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Dharma Home Suites in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full trip one way. Select by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
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.
Dharma Home Suites gives you a home-style suite to settle into once the cruise is behind you, a place to unpack properly rather than live out of a bag. It sits about 11 miles from the port along the northern end of the barrier island, the peaceful, uncrowded stretch that Surfside and Bal Harbour anchor. The sand here stays wide and quiet, and the pace is easy the moment you step out the door.
The surroundings match that relaxed tone. Bal Harbour Shops sit close by when you desire a polished afternoon of browsing, and the North Beach Bandshell is near enough for an open-air evening of music or a community event. Collins Avenue runs through this part of North Beach as well, so cafes, shops, and the ocean itself are all an easy stroll from your suite.
For anyone who likes the outdoors, Haulover Park is neighboring too, with its beach, boat traffic, and green space along the water. That mix, a residential-feeling suite on one side and the shops, sand, and parks of the northern island on the other, makes Dharma Home Suites a relaxing landing spot whether you are staying a night before flying home or a full week to enjoy the quieter side of the coast. It is the kind of address where the trip winds down at your own speed, with the hectic heart of the city an easy drive away when you desire it and out of earshot when you do not.
The run from the cruise terminal to Dharma Home Suites is a single, direct trip of about 11 miles, following the Julia Tuttle Causeway and I-195 across to the barrier island. Plan on roughly 26 to 28 minutes from terminal curb to the door, a little more when traffic is heavy on the causeway. Your chauffeur meets you at your ship’s own terminal after disembarkation, so there is no wandering the port looking for a car.
From the pier it is one clean run with no stops, your luggage loaded and staying in the vehicle the whole way while you ride. The pickup follows your ship’s actual arrival rather than a fixed slot, leaving room for the pace of getting off the ship. The vehicle is reserved for your group alone, door to door, and standard tolls and fuel are already covered in the flat rate.
From the Port of Miami, plan on about 28 minutes and 11.5 miles to reach Dharma Home Suites in Miami Beach via I-195 (Julia Tuttle Causeway) and SR 907.

Boa viagem. Carro limpo. Ajudou com as malas.
My husband and I had a great sailing and followed it with a private car waiting right at the terminal to take us to Dharma Home Suites — not one worry at the terminal. We went from the terminal to a real bed with nothing to worry about in between.
The two of us booked a private transfer for after the cruise so we wouldn’t deal with the port crowds getting over to Dharma Home Suites. We went from the ship to the front desk of Dharma Home Suites with no stress at all. For a reliable way to get from the ship to Dharma Home Suites, it was money well spent.
Waiting at the curb the moment we walked out, and a comfortable ride over to Dharma Home Suites.
