From $140 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to The Desoto Inn 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.
The pickup follows the flight, not the schedule you booked weeks ago, so an early landing or a late one changes only the meeting time. You are met at MIA arrivals with the greeting included in the fare, and the Meet & Greet inside the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40 more. From there it is one private vehicle straight to the destination.
The Desoto Inn is a coastal stay in Hollywood, on the calm, low-key stretch of the shoreline where the pace slows down and the beach is the main event. It sits close to the sand, so a stay here often begins just steps from the water — easy to drop your bags, change, and walk straight out to the coast without a second drive. This is the quieter, unhurried end of the shore, the kind of place travelers pick when they want the beach to feel restful rather than crowded.
What you locate on arrival is simplicity. You unpack once and the ocean is right there, close enough that mornings can start with a walk along the water and evenings can wind down the same way. The setting leans toward the relaxed side of a beach journey: gentle sand, an easy walkable feel, and a location that keeps the coast within reach the moment you step outside. For a first stay in the area, that closeness to the water is the thing people recall most.
Because The Desoto Inn is oriented around its coastal position in Hollywood, it works well as a home base for a beach-focused visit. You are close enough to the shore to build the whole journey around it, and settled enough to treat the room as a place to rest between walks by the water. Details about the rooms, amenities, and check-in are kept on the property’s own official page, so you can confirm the specifics of your stay directly with them before you travel.
Your driver is waiting when you reach the arrivals level at Miami International Airport. After you clear the terminal, they meet you at the curb, take your bags, and load them into the vehicle, so you step straight into your own car and settle in. The route out runs along I-95, and the whole journey is one seamless, private ride to The Desoto Inn in Hollywood — no shared van, no queue, just a direct door-to-door transfer for your party alone.
Because we watch your flight, an early or late landing is already handled. The pickup is timed to when you actually touch down rather than a fixed slot, so a delayed arrival merely moves the whole pickup at no extra charge. When you land, message us with your details and the driver confirms the meet — then it is a calm, coordinated arrival from the airport curb to the front of The Desoto Inn.
