From $140 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to The Hollywood Beach Suites, Hostel + Hotel in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
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 Hollywood Beach Suites, Hostel + Hotel sits in Hollywood, the easygoing beach town that rests about halfway between Miami and Fort Lauderdale. It blends hostel and hotel under one roof, and its biggest draw is simple geography: the shoreline is only steps from the door. Plenty of cruise guests trade the ship’s pool for real sand the same afternoon they disembark, walking straight from their room to the water without needing another ride.
The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk runs close by, a broad oceanfront path where the beach-town rhythm shows itself in slow strolls, bikes, and cafés facing the Atlantic. Set down your bags, and the day is already within walking distance. The stay keeps things unfussy, so the setting does the work: sun, sand, and a laid-back stretch of coast that feels a world away from the port you left an hour earlier, yet close enough to reach on a single flat-rate transfer.
There is more within simple reach in Hollywood itself. ArtsPark at Young Circle gathers greenery, events, and open space a short way inland, while the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino offers a full night out when the beach winds down. Nature lovers can point toward West Lake Park for mangroves and quiet water. Whatever fills the afternoon, the property puts you at the center of it, with the beach on one side and city and park attractions on the other, all paced to your own schedule.
Your driver meets you at your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island, after disembarkation, and carries the bags to the vehicle for you. There is no taxi line to join and no luggage left waiting on the curb, because the pickup is timed to your actual walk-off rather than to whatever happens to be available. From there the route follows I-95 north toward Hollywood, one clean run with tolls and fuel already inside the flat rate.
The ride normally takes about 43 to 59 minutes depending on traffic and the hour, and the vehicle is yours alone the whole way, with no strangers and no added stops. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest, so the plan already accounts for the crowd leaving the ships and the traffic that comes with it. At the other end, your driver pulls up to the entrance of The Hollywood Beach Suites, Hostel + Hotel and helps with the luggage again.
