From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Spark by Hilton Miami Doral in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Every fare below is per vehicle, one way, with the driver, fuel and tolls inside the number. Pick the row that fits your group and luggage.
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.
Spark by Hilton Miami Doral sits in Doral, the golf-and-business city that spreads west of the Miami airport. This is a part of town built around championship golf courses and mile after mile of corporate campuses, and the hotel gives you a relaxing base right in the middle of it. After a cruise, it makes a simple landing spot, set in a calmer, greener pocket of the city than the port itself.
Once you have settled in, ample sits within reach. CityPlace Doral and Downtown Doral offer you shopping, dining, and places to walk after days at sea, while Doral Central Park offers open green space when you desire to stretch your legs. The Palmetto Expressway runs neighboring, which keeps the rest of Miami-Dade a simple drive away when you feel like exploring beyond Doral itself.
The hotel side of your stay, the amenities, the luggage holds, and the question of early check-in, is handled directly through Spark by Hilton Miami Doral’s own official page, so you can confirm the details that matter to your dates. Our part is getting you there cleanly: one direct ride from your ship’s terminal to the hotel door, with your bags loaded for you and a chauffeur who knows the Doral streets. Arriving after a long sailing, most guests just desire the ride sorted in advance, so the first thing they do ashore is climb into a waiting vehicle rather than sort out logistics at the curb.
The ride begins the moment you clear the terminal. Your chauffeur is staged at the port, timed to your ship’s disembarkation, so there is no waiting around once your bags reach the curb. Everything goes into the vehicle for you, and the route heads out on SR-836 as a single direct leg toward Doral, roughly 14.8 miles that runs about 30 to 41 minutes depending on the hour and the traffic.
Because the vehicle is yours alone, there are no other stops between the port and the hotel. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest, with thousands of passengers leaving the ships at once, so the pickup is planned around your actual walk-off time and the SR-836 traffic is already figured into the plan. You step off, locate your ride, and go straight to Spark by Hilton Miami Doral.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.

Recomendo muito.
The two of us cruised from PortMiami and having a private car waiting curbside for the ride over to Spark by Hilton Miami Doral was the best part of the day.
