From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Holiday Inn Miami Beach-Oceanfront in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full journey one way. Select by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the curbside greeting included in the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal available for $40 if you desire it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
Holiday Inn Miami Beach-Oceanfront sits at 4333 Collins Avenue in the 33140 zip, planting your stay directly on the Mid-Beach coast. This is the part of the island where the sand runs broad and the towers of resort row line the water, so stepping out of the lobby puts the ocean within a short walk. After days at sea, arriving to a room this close to the beach means the transition from ship to shore is a gentle one.
The location does a lot of the work. Collins Avenue runs right past the door, and the Miami Beach Boardwalk stretches along the shoreline the full length of Mid-Beach, giving you a flat, breezy path for a morning stroll or an evening walk after dinner. Indian Creek sits just inland, and the Bass Museum of Art is close by for a change of pace from the water. The Faena District, with its arts scene tucked between the high-rises, adds another reason to wander up the avenue on foot.
Because the property is oceanfront, a beach afternoon is the natural next move once the cruise ends. Drop the bags with the front desk, change, and you are on the sand in minutes rather than driving anywhere for it. The hotel handles the practical side of a stay here, from luggage holds to the usual arrival questions, so you can point yourself at the water and let the day open up. It is a straightforward, coast-hugging base for the Miami Beach stretch of your journey.
The journey from PortMiami to Holiday Inn Miami Beach-Oceanfront covers roughly 9 miles and takes about 23 to 25 minutes, depending on traffic and the hour. Your chauffeur follows the Julia Tuttle Causeway and I-195 across to Mid-Beach, with your whole group riding together in one vehicle and every bag loaded inside — nothing strapped to a roof, nothing left behind. From the ship, it is a single, direct run to the hotel entrance.
On disembarkation mornings the terminal exits stack up speedy, so your driver is staged and waiting before you clear the hall. That means the wait belongs to them, not to you, and a courtesy window covers the customs lines so a slow queue never costs you the ride within that time. When you walk out, the car is there, the luggage goes in, and you are pointed toward Collins Avenue with assist at the curb on both ends.

Chegada ao casamento exatamente na hora.
My husband and I finished a wonderful cruise and followed it with a private car ready at the curb to take us to Holiday Inn Miami Beach-Oceanfront — no fuss at the port. Booking was easy, we got clear pickup details, and everything lined up perfectly. There was a courtesy waiting window from the agreed time, so we never had to rush to gather the bags.
Minha esposa e eu queríamos uma passagem limpa na saída do terminal, então reservamos uma viagem privativa até Holiday Inn Miami Beach-Oceanfront antes mesmo de zarpar. Sinceramente a parte mais fácil da viagem — do navio até a porta do hotel sem estresse. A última coisa que se quer depois de uma semana no mar é uma viagem que não acontece, e esta foi bem na hora que precisamos. Obrigado pela passagem tão tranquila!
As a solo cruiser I arranged a private transfer from the terminal to Holiday Inn Miami Beach-Oceanfront for disembarkation morning, and it could not have been easier. I had the driver’s details ahead of time, so there was no guessing at the port. Booking was easy, I got a solid confirmation, and everything lined up perfectly. Would book again for the next cruise.
No quería jugármela con un transporte la mañana en que desembarqué, así que reservé un auto privado de la terminal a Holiday Inn Miami Beach-Oceanfront. Lo último que quieres tras una semana en el mar es un viaje que falle, y este fue totalmente sólido. Había un cartel con mi nombre en la salida, así que ubiqué al conductor sin buscar nada. ¡Gracias por el traspaso tan tranquilo!
