From $89 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to The Blue Hyatt Residences 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.
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.
The Blue Hyatt Residences puts you in the Doral part of Miami, a district built around business, golf, and a grid of walkable dining. It is a residential-style stay rather than a beachfront one, which suits travelers who desire a calmer base a short drive from the port and simple access to the corporate and shopping side of the city. When your ride pulls up, the driver takes the group and its luggage to the entrance and carries the bags to the curb beside you, so the last part of the trip is as simple as stepping out of the vehicle.
Doral is the reason many guests choose this address. CityPlace Doral anchors the area with its restaurants and shops, and Downtown Doral sits close by for more of the same. Golfers and business travelers gravitate here, with Trump National Doral and its well-known golf resort sharing the neighborhood grid. The Palmetto Expressway runs nearby, which keeps the wider city within reach without putting you in the middle of it.
From The Blue Hyatt Residences the rest of Miami opens up on your own schedule. Wynwood’s murals and the cafés of Little Havana are a short outing away, and South Beach, Downtown, Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, and Brickell are all reachable when you desire them. For shopping there is Dolphin Mall or Lincoln Road, and the city’s landmarks and museums can be paced however you like. If you have docked in the morning with an evening flight, the residences create a comfortable place to stage the day before your ride back.
Reserve the ride before your ship docks and disembarkation turns into the simple part of the morning. Your private black SUV or van waits at your own terminal on Dodge Island, and the driver is organized by message as your group clears the hall, so there is no wandering the pier looking for a car. Tell us the cruise line and arrival date and we stage the correct vehicle at the correct terminal, timed to your ship’s actual arrival rather than a slot cut to the minute.

Your booking includes 60 minutes of complimentary wait at the port, so the pace of customs never costs you the ride within that time, and the driver handles the bags at both ends.

Pontual, profissional, e o motorista conhecia o terminal perfeitamente.
Unos amigos y yo bajamos del barco juntos y coordinamos una van privada de la terminal de cruceros a The Blue Hyatt Residences. Era un auto privado solo para nosotros — sin paradas ajenas — mucho mejor que ir con desconocidos. Llegar a The Blue Hyatt Residences a primera hora significó que pudimos dejar las maletas y arrancar el día.
My husband and I walked off the ship at PortMiami and a private car was right there for us to take us to The Blue Hyatt Residences. No app to fight with — we just went straight from the curb into the car. There was a courtesy waiting window from the agreed time, so we never had to rush off the ship.
