From $110 per vehicle — a private one-way ride from MIA to Grand Beach Hotel Surfside, met at the curb on a flat fare fixed before you journey.
Each rate below covers the whole vehicle rather than a single seat, so pick the tier that fits your group; everyone aboard rides on that one number, locked when you book.
Your driver waits at the terminal curb as you step out with your bags — no app to open, no lot to search. Offer the flight number when you book and the arrival is watched live, so the pickup lands on the moment your plane is genuinely on the ground, not the printed time. Favor to be met inside by someone holding a name sign? That greet is an optional $40 add-on set at booking; the typical curbside meet is already in the fare. From the MIA curb it is one private car straight to Grand Beach Hotel Surfside — no shared seats, no other stops.
Plan on 5 to 30 minutes behind the wheel, and the hour you leave decides nearly all of it. Off-peak — early morning, midday, late evening — the coastal highways stay clear and the trip sits near the short end. At rush hour, volume on I-95 and on the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836) stretches it toward the long end. None of that reaches your total, though: the per-vehicle rate holds no matter what the road does. Your driver reads the local streets and takes whatever lane is flowing, ending north on Collins Avenue at the hotel door.
Door to door, the distance runs about 15.6 miles (25.2 km), and it reads the same whichever way you go. Most of the trip is limited-access highway; the drive only slows for the last leg, turning up Collins Avenue and weaving through Surfside’s compact, low-rise streets. The booking address is 9449 Collins Avenue, Surfside, FL 33154 — up in the town’s mid-90s blocks near 94th Street — and the ride ends at the hotel’s own entrance on Collins, not a corner down the block, which helps once it is dark.
Grand Beach Hotel Surfside stands right on the Atlantic in Surfside, a quiet oceanfront town that feels far more residential than the louder stretches of Miami Beach to the south. The shoreline sets the tone: broad sand, a simple pace, short walks past blocks of bakeries, cafés, and small storefronts. It suits travelers who desire salt air and a good dinner without the after-dark intensity of the club strips, while Bal Harbour’s shopping to the north and South Beach to the south each stay a short private ride away. The resort’s own Surfside hotel page lays out rooms and amenities, and its seasonal stay deals are listed too.
Daytime pickups between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM carry no surcharge. Anything outside that window adds a small after-hours charge on top of the flat fare, set by vehicle type:
Every fare is charged per vehicle, not per rider. One flat number covers the entire party — the SUV up to five, the vans up to nine or fourteen — so adding people, right to the vehicle’s limit, never moves the total. A return merely doubles the one-way shown in the fares above.
Yes — booking ahead means it is all arranged before you even board. Send the flight and party size, pick the SUV or a private van, and pay the fare; from that point the flat fare and your named driver are both locked in, and there is nothing to sort out when you land at MIA.
