From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Sonesta Bay Front Hotel in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The prices are flat and quoted per vehicle for the whole one-way ride: no meter, no surge, nothing added at the curb.
Book with the flight number and the driver watches it land. Meet at the arrivals curb, where the greeting is part of the price, or select the Meet & Greet inside the terminal with a name sign for an extra $40. The driver handles the luggage and heads straight out, no other passengers, no stops unless you add them.
Sonesta Bay Front Hotel sits in Coconut Grove, the oldest neighborhood in Miami and a leafy village that runs right up to the water. The Grove trades the downtown grid for shaded streets, sidewalk cafés, and small marinas, and the hotel places you in the middle of it. It is a calm, green corner of the city, close to the bay yet a short drive from the airport.
Once you have checked in and set down your bags, much of what makes the Grove worth visiting is within simple reach. CocoWalk and Peacock Park are among the nearest landmarks, both a short walk from the hotel. Dinner Key Marina and the Barnacle Historic State Park sit neighboring as well, and the Vizcaya estate is close enough to fold into a day out. Together they offer you shopping, open green space, boats on the water, and a piece of old Miami history, all within the same bayfront pocket.
That mix is what draws travelers here: a bayfront setting with cafés and marinas at the door, quieter than the beach yet still fully part of Miami. Because the hotel sits inside this compact, walkable district, you can leave the vehicle behind once you reach and cover most of the Grove on foot. Your driver brings you straight to the entrance, so the first thing you deal with is the neighborhood itself rather than a map. For a weekend by the water or a longer stay, Coconut Grove gives you a base that feels more like a village than a hotel strip.
Your ride begins the moment you clear the arrivals level at MIA. The driver is already waiting when you come out, helps with the luggage, and walks you to the vehicle, so there is no line to join and no app to open. Your bags ride with you the whole way, and the fare is fixed before you leave the curb.
From the airport the route runs by Northwest 27th Avenue and the SR-836 toll road toward Coconut Grove, a trip of roughly 20 to 24 minutes depending on traffic. You stay in the same private vehicle from the terminal to the hotel entrance, with no transfer and no stop you did not ask for. If your flight lands early or late, the driver is tracking it and merely adjusts the pickup, so the plan holds either way.
