From $89 per vehicle, a private one-way ride between Port of Miami and Leamington Hotel in Downtown Miami.
Each figure below is the price for the whole vehicle, one way, whether you are stepping off a ship or heading back to catch one. The rate is fixed the moment you book, and neither traffic nor a hectic sailing day moves it.
Your cruise ties up at one of the terminals on Dodge Island, and the driver stages at the one matching your line. Share the ship’s name when you reserve and the pickup point is set before you even walk down the gangway. As you clear the customs hall and wheel your bags to the curb, a short message points you to the waiting car. Being met there is part of the fare; if you would rather look for a printed name sign in the crowd, ask for one and it adds $40.
It is a short hop from the pier to Leamington Hotel — roughly 2.0 miles up Port Boulevard and across into the downtown grid. The hotel address is 307 NE 1st St, so the black car rolls off the causeway and reaches the door within minutes. Because the ride is private, it goes only where you are going: no shared seats, no detour to another terminal, just your party and your luggage in a single vehicle. There is no taxi queue to join and no sidewalk scramble with your bags, since the car is already tied to your reservation.
Plan on eight to ten minutes from the pier to Leamington Hotel, offer or take a little for the hour. Weekend mornings are the heaviest stretch, when several ships empty at once and Port Boulevard fills with departing traffic. The driver times the pickup to your real walk-off instead of a guessed slot, so the short distance stays short. Even on the busiest turnaround Saturday, the leg from the terminals to the hotel is measured in minutes rather than hours.
Leamington Hotel stands on NE 1st Street, a couple of blocks back from Biscayne Bay in central Downtown Miami. Step outside and Bayside Marketplace and Bayfront Park sit a simple walk toward the water, with the Kaseya Center, Museum Park and the Perez Art Museum Miami all close at hand. The cruise port is right across the causeway, which is exactly why the transfer runs so brief. If a night in the city bookends your sailing, the shops, the waterfront and the arena all stay within reach on foot, and an early flight the next morning is a simple drive from a stay this central.
The driver stages at the terminal assigned to your cruise line on Dodge Island, so pass along the ship’s name when you book. As you leave the customs hall, a message confirms the exact curb to head for. You walk straight from baggage claim to the car with no hunting around.
