From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Doral Ocean Beach Resort Heliport in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
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.
Doral Ocean Beach Resort Heliport sits about 9.7 miles by road from the Port of Miami, out along Mid-Beach where Collins Avenue runs through resort row. This is oceanfront ground: the coast is right there, and the sand is a short walk once you have set your bags down. After a morning of disembarkation, that closeness makes a beach afternoon the natural next move — drop everything at the property and head straight for the water.
The stretch has its own rhythm. An oceanfront boardwalk runs the full length of Mid-Beach, so a walk along the path is on hand the moment you land ashore. Between the towers, the Faena District adds an arts scene, giving the area more to do than sun and surf alone. Your drop-off covers the door of your stay and the streets around it, with bags carried to the curb beside you rather than left at a distant lot.
There is more within reach than the shoreline. Indian Creek threads through the neighborhood, and the Bass Museum of Art sits nearby for anyone who wants a break from the beach. Guests often fold in a stop or two once they have settled — the boardwalk one direction, the Faena District the other — with the whole of Mid-Beach’s resort row spread up Collins Avenue. Tell us the ship and the arrival date and the vehicle is staged for the morning, so the first thing you handle on land is where you desire to be, not how to obtain there.
Your driver meets you at the exact terminal your cruise line uses, not a distant curb, and the pickup is timed to your ship’s disembarkation. There is an hour of free waiting built in, so customs lines never cost you the ride within that time. From there it is a private car reserved for your group alone — no other stops, no sharing — with every bag handled from the terminal to the vehicle.
From the port the route runs by the Julia Tuttle Causeway and I-195, a 9.7-mile hop that commonly takes 26 to 28 minutes depending on traffic and the hour. Tolls and fuel are already in the price, so nothing is added on the day. The car pulls up at the entrance of Doral Ocean Beach Resort Heliport and your bags come out to the curb beside you.

Reservé y llegaron, ritmo tranquilo, ideal con niños.
My wife and I came down the gangway at PortMiami and a private car was waiting at the terminal curb to take us to Doral Ocean Beach Resort Heliport. An easy, low-key handoff for the two of us — off the ship and into Doral Ocean Beach Resort Heliport with nothing left to sort out. The driver handled the suitcases so we didn’t have to struggle with anything. Thanks for the smooth handoff!
Cruising with the kids, we wanted the port end handled, so a private van straight over to Doral Ocean Beach Resort Heliport was perfect.
We didn’t want to juggle the little ones and the bags looking for a ride at the port, so we reserved a private van to Doral Ocean Beach Resort Heliport. The SUV was clean, cool, and comfortable, and the AC was perfect after the ship.
De crucero con la familia, queríamos el puerto resuelto, así que una van privada directo hasta Doral Ocean Beach Resort Heliport nos hizo el día. Teníamos todo el plan antes de que el barco atracara, así que no había que adivinar nada en el puerto. El van estaba impecable, con el aire perfecto tras el barco.
