From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Miami Beach Resort and Spa 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.
Book with the ship’s name and the date, and the driver handles the rest at PortMiami: waiting at the correct terminal, helping with the suitcases, and leaving the port without a queue. The curbside greeting costs nothing extra; the Meet & Greet at the terminal with a name sign adds $40.
Miami Beach Resort and Spa sits in Mid-Beach, the calmer stretch of the barrier island where the pace eases off but the ocean stays right at hand. This is the part of the shore lined with Collins Avenue resorts rather than the late-night crowds farther south, so guests obtain the water and the sand without the constant buzz. If you have spent your cruise looking at the sea, the property keeps it close.
Step outside and the shoreline is only a short walk away. Plenty of travelers set down their bags and trade the ship’s deck for real sand the same afternoon they come ashore, then follow the beachwalk that runs along this part of the coast. The building anchors your stay while the beach and the promenade handle the rest of the day, whether you desire to swim, stroll, or merely sit by the water.
The surrounding blocks offer you more to reach on foot or a short hop away. The Bass Museum sits a few blocks south, and Collins Avenue and the Miami Beach Boardwalk are close by for a simple walk in either direction. The Faena District and Indian Creek round out the Mid-Beach neighbors, so an evening out or a morning wander stays simple. For rooms, parking, and check-in specifics, the property’s own team is the right source, since those change and we would rather point you to the people who set them.
Book before you dock and the busiest part of the morning becomes someone else’s job. Your chauffeur is staged at the terminal while you are still working through the exit hall, so the wait belongs to the driver, not to you. When your group clears the curb, the vehicle is right there, luggage goes straight into the trunk, and you pull away without circling a parking lot or hunting for a pickup point.
From the cruise terminal the run heads north over the Julia Tuttle Causeway and onto I-195, the short and direct line into Mid-Beach, with no shared stops along the way. Count on roughly 25 to 27 minutes terminal to door depending on how the morning traffic moves. The driver carries your bags to the entrance at Miami Beach Resort and Spa, and the flat fare you locked at booking is the fare you pay, tolls and fuel already inside it.

Everything ran on time from the port to the front door of Miami Beach Resort and Spa — couldn’t ask for more. An easy, low-key handoff for the two of us — off the ship and into Miami Beach Resort and Spa with nothing left to sort out.
Minha esposa e eu descemos a passarela no PortMiami e havia um carro privativo ali mesmo para nós para nos levar até Miami Beach Resort and Spa. Fomos do terminal a uma cama de verdade sem nada com que nos preocupar no meio. O trajeto do terminal até Miami Beach Resort and Spa foi confortável e sem pressa, e pudemos só nos acomodar.
A group of us came off the ship together and arranged one private van from the port to Miami Beach Resort and Spa. The car was roomy enough for all the cruise luggage, and the AC was perfect after the ship.
