From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Doubletree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
Book with the ship’s name and the date, and the driver handles the rest at PortMiami: waiting at the correct terminal, helping with the suitcases, and leaving the port without a queue. The curbside greeting costs nothing extra; the Meet & Greet at the terminal with a name sign adds $40.
The Doubletree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay stands in the heart of Downtown Miami at 1717 North Bayshore Drive, a simple address to hand your chauffeur and a clear landmark right off Biscayne Boulevard. It sits on the bay side of the city, close enough to the water that the skyline and the marina become part of the view from the moment you pull up.
Downtown is the nearest neighborhood to the cruise ships, and this stretch of North Bayshore Drive puts much of it within reach. Museum Park is neighboring, home to the Perez Art Museum Miami, and the Kaseya Center is close for a game or a show. Bayside Marketplace and Bayfront Park sit within the same walkable core, so an afternoon before or after a sailing rarely needs a second car. The bay, the arena district, and a good spread of dining all fall within the same few blocks.
On arrival you are left in the middle of everything the downtown waterfront offers, with the entrance set back from Biscayne Boulevard and the marina at your feet. Because the address sits so near PortMiami across the causeway, the hotel works equally well as a first night before you board or a landing spot once you step off the ship. Hand the driver the North Bayshore Drive address and the door is the end of the ride, bags and all, with no cross-town detour to reach it.
The journey begins at your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island. Your chauffeur tracks the arrival and is staged at the port when you walk off, so there is no line to join and nothing to arrange on the curb — just a person waiting for your group. Bags go straight from the terminal into the vehicle, loaded once, and they stay there until you reach the hotel.
From the port the route runs into Downtown Miami and over to North Bayshore Drive, a single direct leg with the whole party riding together. The fare is fixed per vehicle for the one-way journey, agreed before the day, with fuel and typical tolls already built in. The chauffeur handles the luggage lobby to curb and sets you down at the Doubletree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay entrance, door to door.

Our family of six came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver loaded every cruise bag for the ride to Doubletree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay. Booking was quick, we got clear pickup details, and everything matched what we were told.
Stepping off the ship, having the ride already handled to Doubletree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay was exactly what I needed. It was a private car just for me — nobody else to wait on — a relief after a week aboard.
As a solo cruiser I arranged a private transfer from the terminal to Doubletree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay for disembarkation morning, and it could not have been easier. The ride from the terminal to Doubletree by Hilton Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay was smooth and steady, and I could just unwind after the cruise. The last thing you want after a week at sea is a ride that falls through, and this was reliable and on time. Highly recommend.
