From $110 per vehicle — a private transfer to or from Port of Miami and Four Seasons Hotel at the Surf Club covers the roughly 15 to 25 minute ride to Surfside in a black SUV or climate-controlled van, with a bilingual driver and a flat rate. Your driver meets the group curb-side at the cruise terminal for a direct, door-to-door journey.
The fare is flat and per vehicle, locked the moment you book, with three tiers based on group size.
The simplest way is a pre-booked private vehicle that meets you at the cruise terminal. Pick the tier that matches your party: a Black SUV for up to five, a van for six to nine, or a larger van for ten to fourteen. After your ship clears, the driver greets the group curb-side as you step off — with a name sign if you request one over WhatsApp ahead of time — so there is no taxi line, no app, and no waiting in the sun. There is ample room for cruise luggage in every vehicle, and the journey runs straight to the hotel entrance, door-to-door, with no extra stops. Booking takes one message: send your ship name, arrival date, terminal, group size, and direction of journey, and the ride is confirmed with the flat fare attached. The same setup works in reverse for your departure day, picking you up at the hotel for the run back to the port.
The drive takes roughly 15 to 25 minutes under normal traffic. Off-peak, with light roads, the journey sits nearer the 15-minute end. During hectic stretches — late mornings on heavy disembarkation days, or evening rush along the beach corridor — it leans toward 25 minutes. Because the fare is fixed, slower traffic never changes what you pay; only your arrival time shifts. Plan your timing around your ship’s all-aboard call on the return leg, and the driver builds in margin so a slow stretch of road does not threaten your schedule.
It can. When three or more ships clear PortMiami within the same window, the terminal roadways and approaches back up, adding several minutes to an otherwise quick trip. The driver tracks the morning’s debark flow and times the curb-side pickup accordingly, so you are not left circling or waiting longer than needed once your group is ready to roll.
Four Seasons Hotel at the Surf Club sits on the oceanfront at 9011 Collins Avenue in Surfside, just north of Miami Beach. The property folds a restored 1930s social club into a contemporary Four Seasons resort, with direct beach access, multiple pools, and signature dining steps from the sand. After a cruise, it is a simple landing spot — quiet Surfside streets, a walkable village of shops and cafes neighboring, and South Beach a short drive south. You can read more in the Four Seasons Surf Club hotel review or check rooms and amenities on the Four Seasons Surfside official site. The transfer drops you right at the hotel’s arrival court, so you go from terminal to lobby without handling your own bags through a rideshare scramble.
Surfside is a calm beach town wrapped around Collins Avenue and Harding Avenue. Within a short walk you’ll find boutiques, bakeries, and casual restaurants, plus a public beach and the Surfside Community Center. Bal Harbour Shops sit just to the north, and the nightlife and museums of South Beach are a quick ride south along the coast.
The flat fare covers the full ride, the bilingual driver, and the running costs of the journey. Tolls, SunPass charges, and fuel are all built into the price — nothing extra is collected for them on the road. Onboard WiFi is provided through a mobile hotspot so you can message family or check in online during the drive. Pets are not accepted; certified service animals are welcome with advance notice. Everything that arrives quoted stays quoted.
Trips that fall outside daytime hours add a late-night premium, detailed below. Anything not listed in the inclusions simply is not part of the booking; if you need something specific, raise it over WhatsApp and it will be quoted before you confirm.
Your driver meets you curb-side at your cruise terminal as you exit, right where passengers come out with their bags. Request a name sign over WhatsApp ahead of time and the driver holds it so your group spots them speedy. Share your terminal number when you book to pin the exact pickup point.
Yes — disembarkation day is exactly what this transfer is built for. Send your ship name and arrival date when booking, and the driver plans around your debark time. The pickup is timed to when your group actually clears the terminal, so the SUV or van is ready and waiting as you step out.
Yes. Drivers monitor your ship’s arrival and debark window using terminal updates, so a port delay does not leave you stranded or paying for missed time. If your ship docks late, the pickup is re-timed at no extra cost. Just confirm your ship name when you book so the right schedule is tracked.
