From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Easy Hostel 2 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.
The driver is outside the PortMiami terminal when you come through, plans around the ship’s real arrival time, and loads the bags. The curbside greeting is covered by the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal is offered for $40. Then it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
Easy Hostel 2 sits in Coconut Grove, the oldest neighborhood in Miami and one of its most walkable. This is a corner of the city built around the bay rather than the beach, with shaded streets, small marinas, and a compact center you can cover on foot. Arriving here after a cruise feels like stepping into a quieter, greener Miami, a short drive removed from the noise and crowds of the cruise terminals.
The location puts you within simple reach of the things that offer the Grove its character. CocoWalk, the open-air shopping and dining hub, is close by, and Peacock Park spreads out toward the water a short walk away. Dinner Key Marina and the Barnacle Historic State Park are both neighboring, so an afternoon can drift from a bayfront bench to a boat-lined dock without much planning. It is the kind of base that rewards travelers who desire to settle in and discover on foot rather than chase attractions across the city.
What you locate on arrival is a laid-back neighborhood setting rather than a resort strip. The Grove has long been Miami’s original address, and it keeps that feel: bayfront parks, working marinas, and a center that stays walkable through the day and into the evening. When your driver pulls up to Easy Hostel 2, you are dropped right at the entrance, ready to drop your bags and step into the neighborhood. If you are planning extra days here, the surrounding parks and waterfront create it a simple place to slow down and stay a while.
After you disembark at PortMiami, your chauffeur meets you curbside at your ship’s own terminal, not out in a distant parking lot. Bags go straight into the vehicle with the driver handling the luggage, and the group climbs into a private ride reserved for you alone. From there it is a short run of roughly 22 to 25 minutes to Easy Hostel 2, depending on traffic and the hour. The vehicle is yours the whole way, so there are no other passengers and no added stops between the terminal and the door.
Because ships rarely clear everyone at the same minute, the pickup is timed to your actual arrival, with wait time built in to cover customs and the luggage hall. You walk out, the vehicle is already there, and the driver carries your bags to the curb beside you at the end. It is a direct, door-to-door journey: one group, one vehicle, from the cruise terminal to the entrance of Easy Hostel 2 in Coconut Grove.
