From $110 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Jm Marriott Hotel in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. The curbside greeting at the terminal is included; the Meet & Greet at the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Jm Marriott Hotel places you in Coral Gables, one of the most distinctive corners of the Miami region. This is a district defined by boulevards of banyan trees and Spanish-style architecture, where the pace feels a step calmer than the beachfront yet everything worth seeing stays within simple reach. Arriving here after a cruise, you trade the crowded terminal exits for a quiet, tree-lined setting that makes for a gentle landing on dry ground.
The neighborhood keeps its landmarks close. Miracle Mile sits neighboring with its run of restaurants, and the historic Biltmore Hotel anchors the heart of the district. If you have time to wander, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden and the University of Miami are also close by in Coral Gables, giving you gardens, campus grounds, and walkable streets all within the same small radius. It is a simple base whether you are staying a night before flying home or building a longer visit around the port.
On arrival, the hotel’s lobby door is where your day slows down. Your driver brings you to that entrance, unloads the bags, and you step straight into the property without a taxi line or a scramble on the sidewalk. Because the ride is planned around your ship rather than around whatever is available in the moment, the drop-off lands at the hour you agreed on. From there the surrounding streets of Coral Gables, with their restaurants and shaded walks, are yours to discover at your own speed.
This is a terminal-to-door private transfer from Port of Miami to Jm Marriott Hotel, booked in advance at a flat rate. Your driver meets you at the exact terminal your cruise line uses, timed to disembarkation, with an hour of free waiting so the customs lines never cost you the ride within that time. Luggage assist is part of the service at both ends, so the bags go straight into the vehicle and you keep your hands free from pier to lobby.
From the pier it is one run of about 23.7 miles along SR-836 and Florida’s Turnpike Thru Lanes, ending at the door of the hotel. Plan on roughly 41 to 56 minutes depending on traffic and the hour, with disembarkation mornings running slower as the terminal exits fill. Your driver is staged before you clear the hall, so any waiting is theirs, not yours, and the vehicle is solely your group’s for the whole journey.
From the Port of Miami, plan on about 44 minutes and 25.5 miles to reach Jm Marriott Hotel in Miami via the Dolphin Expressway (SR 836) and Florida’s Turnpike.

Fair price. Nice ride. Spotless car.
Nos sorprendió para bien. sin tarifas dinámicas ni esperar bajo el sol, y encima el baúl entró cuatro maletas grandes más las de mano.
Un grupo de nosotros bajamos del barco juntos y coordinamos una van privada del puerto a Jm Marriott Hotel. El conductor nos dejó directo frente a Jm Marriott Hotel, y no en una esquina con las maletas. Sin pelear con una app — caminamos de la terminal a un auto que ya estaba ahí.
We came off the ship worn out from a great week and a private car straight to Jm Marriott Hotel set the tone for the rest of the trip. We’ve already earmarked them for our next cruise out of PortMiami.
We cruised as a group and wanted everyone and the luggage in one private ride to Jm Marriott Hotel after disembarking. There was a sign with our name at the curb, so we didn’t have to look around.
