This is a terminal-to-door private transfer to or from Port of Miami and Pine Tree Gardens Inn — about 7.2 miles and 22–24 minutes along MacArthur Causeway and SR A1A — booked in advance at a flat rate from $100 per vehicle, with a bilingual chauffeur and full luggage assistance included.
Pricing is flat and per vehicle for the one-way run — the group travels together for a single locked fare, tolls and fuel included.
Book the ride before you dock and disembarkation becomes the easy part: your private SUV meets you at the terminal and runs straight to Pine Tree Gardens Inn, no stops.
From the pier it is one run along MacArthur Causeway and SR A1A — about 7.2 miles — ending at the door of Pine Tree Gardens Inn.
A gap between disembarkation and departure does not have to be spent at a food court: book the vehicle by the hour and see the city instead, bags safely aboard.
Guests here often fit in Collins Avenue and the Miami Beach Boardwalk once they land ashore, with the Faena District and the Bass Museum of Art also nearby in Mid-Beach.
Reserving is simple: half now, half on the day, and a fair cancellation window.
Every reservation carries free wait time:
A few things sit outside the fare, so you can plan for them:
We keep it personal: one group per vehicle, a bilingual chauffeur, and a superior service from the first message to the terminal curb.
The trip normally runs 22–24 minutes for the 7.2-mile route.
Disembarkation mornings stack up fast at the terminal exits; your driver is staged before you clear the hall, so the wait is theirs, not yours, and MacArthur Causeway and SR A1A does the rest.
Three private sizes cover this route; all of them go straight from your ship to Pine Tree Gardens Inn.
Tell us the ship and arrival date and we stage the vehicle for the morning rush: self-assist walkers come off early, checked-luggage groups later, and either way the driver is coordinated by message as you exit.
Families come off the ships every week — the car seat side is handled:
Quieter than South Beach but still on the ocean, Mid-Beach means Collins Avenue resorts, the beachwalk, and the Bass Museum a few blocks south.

Roughly 22 to 24 minutes terminal to door, depending on traffic and the hour.
Yes — the same flat one-way rate covers the reverse leg. Book both directions together and each pickup is planned around your ship’s schedule.
Plan on one checked bag plus a carry-on per passenger in the SUV; the vans carry proportionally more. Message us about oversized items and we confirm the right vehicle.
Yes — book both legs together (each priced at the flat one-way rate) and the return pickup is scheduled for your sailing date.
Ships sail on their own clock — pickups outside the 7:00 AM–9:00 PM window carry a small surcharge:
Disembarkation mornings are exactly when app prices spike: thousands of passengers request cars at once and an Uber or Lyft fare can multiply at the terminal curb. A reserved transfer to Pine Tree Gardens Inn is priced before any of that happens, and it cannot move.
There is also the wait itself. A rideshare is requested only after you clear the hall and hauls you to a pickup zone; our driver is coordinated by message as you exit, with 30 minutes of courtesy wait already included, and a schedule change on your side is a message, not a new fare.
Uber and Lyft are trademarks of their respective owners; we are not affiliated with or endorsed by either, and any comparison reflects publicly available pricing.
Send the date, group size, and your ship and we confirm the vehicle to Pine Tree Gardens Inn with the pickup staged around your arrival.
Message first rather than calling — we are often mid-service with other clients and answer texts fastest.
