From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Opera Suites & Marina in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full journey one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, the Meet & Greet at the terminal adds $40, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Opera Suites & Marina sits just about 1.8 miles by road from the cruise terminals at Port of Miami, close enough that the curb-to-door run commonly takes only 8 to 10 minutes. After a full morning of disembarkation, that short hop means you are settling in almost as soon as you clear customs and the luggage hall.
The location puts you on the doorstep of some of Miami’s most walkable neighborhoods. Guests here frequently spend their first afternoon in Wynwood and Midtown Miami, where the Wynwood Walls, the Rubell Museum, indie galleries, and the food halls along NW 2nd Avenue are all within easy reach. The Design District and its storefronts round out an arts-first stay for anyone who wants to explore on foot once the bags are dropped.
Whether you are checking in before a stay or heading straight out to see the city, the point of the private ride is the same: your group steps off the ship, the vehicle is waiting, and Opera Suites & Marina is the next stop with nothing in between.
Book before you dock and disembarkation becomes the simple part. Your chauffeur meets your group at your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island, loads the bags at the curb, and drives straight to Opera Suites & Marina by way of Port Boulevard and US-1. The roughly 1.8-mile route is a single direct leg, so the journey normally runs 8 to 10 minutes depending on traffic and the hour.
Because ships rarely clear every passenger at the same minute, the pickup is timed to your actual arrival, with a 60-minute wait built in to cover customs and the luggage hall. You walk out, the vehicle is there, and the ride is yours alone the whole way.

Recomiendo totalmente. trayecto tranquilo y sin vueltas.
Reservé y llegaron. la sillita infantil nos salvó.
I didn’t feel like chasing a ride the morning I got off the ship, so I arranged a private car from the port to Opera Suites & Marina.
My husband and I stepped off the ship at PortMiami and a private car was waiting at the terminal curb to take us to Opera Suites & Marina. There was a name sign at the terminal doors, so we knew right where to go.
The little ones were running on empty when we walked off, and a private van right at the terminal got everyone to Opera Suites & Marina before anyone lost it. The child seat was set up before we even walked out, which was one less thing to worry about. The ride from the terminal to Opera Suites & Marina was calm and comfortable, and we could just settle in.
