From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to DoubleTree by Hilton Miami Doral in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way trip, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
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.
DoubleTree by Hilton Miami Doral sits about 13.9 miles by road from the Port of Miami, in Doral — a golf-and-business city that spreads west of the airport. This is a part of town built around championship courses and mile after mile of corporate campuses, so the streets are broad, the pace is easy, and the hotel makes a peaceful base once you step off the ship and out of the cruise crowds.
What you find on arrival is a district you can actually settle into. CityPlace Doral puts shops and places to eat within reach, and Trump National Doral anchors the golf side of the neighborhood. Downtown Doral and Doral Central Park round out the region, giving you room to stretch your legs after a long day at sea. Guests coming off the ships frequently fold a few of these into their first afternoon ashore, no long drive required.
The hotel side of things — the amenities, the luggage holds, the early check-in options — is spelled out on DoubleTree by Hilton Miami Doral’s official page, so you can confirm the details that matter to your party before you journey. What we handle is everything up to the door: a private ride from the terminal to the lobby, your group riding together, and your bags carried to the curb beside you. From there, Doral’s quieter, greener corner of Miami is yours to savor.
The run from the Port of Miami to DoubleTree by Hilton Miami Doral covers roughly 13.9 miles and usually takes 28 to 40 minutes, terminal curb to hotel door, depending on the hour and the traffic. Your chauffeur follows SR-836 west and drives straight through — no stops, no detours — with your whole party and all the luggage in one vehicle reserved for your group alone.
Disembarkation mornings stack up fast at the terminal exits, so your driver is staged before you clear the arrivals hall. The wait is theirs, not yours. Once you are through, the bags go in, the doors close, and SR-836 handles the rest of the trip out to Doral. Fuel and standard tolls are already built into the flat per-vehicle fare, so nothing changes between the pier and the lobby.
