From $150 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Villas By The Sea 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.
Your driver tracks the flight and adjusts to the real landing time, then meets you at the arrivals level of Miami International Airport. Curbside meet-and-greet is included; if you prefer to be met inside the terminal with a name sign, add the Meet & Greet option for $40. Once the bags are in the vehicle, the ride is direct and door to door.
Villas By The Sea sits in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, a small, walkable oceanfront village just north of Fort Lauderdale. It is one of the few places in Florida where you can wade off the sand and snorkel a living reef straight from the beach, which gives the whole area an easygoing, toes-in-the-water feel rather than a high-rise resort strip. When you reach, the shoreline, the shops, and the water are all close enough to reach on foot.
The setting puts you within easy reach of Anglin’s Fishing Pier, a local landmark that reaches out over the water, along with Datura Avenue and its cluster of places to eat and browse. The shore-dive reef is the signature draw here, and El Prado Park gives you another quiet spot near the shore. Everything clusters tightly enough that, once you are settled in, a car becomes optional for the small errands of a beach stay.
This corner of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea keeps its low-key village character, which is a large part of why travelers select it over the busier beach towns neighboring. We handle only the ride to your door; for the stay itself, the property’s own page is the place to check details and what is included. Our job is to obtain you from the airport to the sand without a detour, so the first thing on your mind is the reef and not the logistics of getting there.
This is a door-to-door private transfer. After you land at MIA, your driver tracks the flight and meets you once you have cleared the terminal, so there is no pin to drop and no curbside scramble. Your bags go straight into a vehicle reserved only for your group, and you head north without a transfer or a stop you did not ask for. If your flight runs late, the pickup simply moves to your actual landing time at no extra charge.
The driver takes I-95 for most of the run while you settle in. Plan on roughly 54 to 67 minutes door to door, quicker off-peak and toward the longer end during rush hour. Tolls and fuel are already covered, the rate is locked at booking, and the same flat price carries your whole group, so nothing about the trip changes once you are on the road.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
