Riding privately between MIA Airport and Costa Hollywood Beach Resort means 24.2 miles (39 km) covered in roughly 46–53 minutes along the I-95 Express lanes, aboard a Black SUV for a flat $120 per vehicle. When the group is bigger, the same door-to-door service runs in a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van.
One-way private rates, charged per vehicle, break down like this:
Door to door, the 24.2-mile journey — close to 39 kilometers — takes about 46 to 53 minutes, depending on whether you land off-peak or in the thick of it. When traffic is light, the northbound run finishes in roughly 46 minutes; rush hours and busy beach-season afternoons push it toward 53. Since the express lanes carry the bulk of the distance, the timing holds steady even while the regular lanes crawl. Your driver picks whichever northbound route is quickest at your arrival hour, so the estimate stays reliable throughout the day. The true door-to-door figure also hinges on how fast your bags appear and how crowded the terminal roadway is, yet the driving stretch stays within that band. Planning a check-in or a Hollywood dinner reservation? Allowing about an hour from touchdown to the resort lobby is a safe, realistic call.
A bit, yes. The ride is fastest in light traffic; weekday rush hours and packed beach-season afternoons tack on a few minutes. Because the northbound express lanes soak up most of the congestion, even a peak-hour run stays close to the off-peak figure. Your driver chooses the quickest route for the hour, keeping your arrival dependable.
Three private tiers serve this route, each held for your group alone — choose by how many people and how many bags are coming:
Unsure which fits? Tell us your passenger and bag count at booking and we will pair the right vehicle to your group, moving up to the bigger van when there is more to haul.
All three options are entirely private. You are never grouped with strangers, and the vehicle you reserve carries only your party from MIA to the resort. Here, “shuttle” simply means a private van booked under your name — not a shared or scheduled run — so the cabin, the route, and the timing belong to you alone.
The flat price wraps in the vehicle, the driver, and every operating cost of the drive: each toll, SunPass charge, and tank of fuel along the way is already accounted for, so nothing on the road comes back to you later. Onboard WiFi runs off a mobile hotspot, so your group can message ahead, share a live location, or stay connected for the whole northbound ride. The rate is designed to stand complete on its own — what you book is meant to move your party from airport to resort with no surprise fees popping up mid-trip. Only a handful of items fall outside that base price, and each is confirmed at booking rather than sprung on you. The sections just below lay out which extra charges can apply, how small pets are handled, and how the luggage allowance works when you carry more than usual.
Nearly all of the cost lives inside the flat fare, but a few extras exist. The first child seat for a child under five costs nothing; each further child seat adds a small fee set at booking. Rides starting outside daytime hours carry a late-night surcharge, detailed in its own section below. Anything optional is agreed up front, never tacked on afterward.
Yes. Small pets are welcome with advance notice by WhatsApp and must travel in a pet carrier. Telling us at booking means the driver and vehicle arrive ready for the pet, with room set aside for the carrier next to your group and bags. Just note it on the reservation so nothing surprises anyone at pickup.
The smartest route is a private transfer booked before you fly, with your driver running north on the I-95 Express lanes straight to Costa Hollywood Beach Resort. You choose the vehicle that suits the group: a Black SUV for up to five passengers, or a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van for a larger party. Your driver greets your arrival at the airport, then drives the single leg to the resort entrance — one vehicle, one stop, no connections and no transfers to juggle en route. The northbound express lanes keep things flowing even when local streets jam, so your arrival time stays predictable from terminal to lobby. It is the most direct way to reach this part of the Hollywood coast right off a flight, especially with luggage and a group landing together.
Book by WhatsApp or email and send your flight number, arrival date, passenger count, and the resort name as the destination. We reply with your assigned vehicle and a confirmed pickup time ahead of travel, so nothing needs sorting at the curb after a long flight. Adjusting the time or the vehicle in advance is easy.
Payment comes in two parts: a 50% deposit locks and holds your booking, and the other 50% goes to the driver on trip day. Send the deposit by Venmo, Zelle, or a secure payment link — whichever suits you — and cash works for nearby, close-in pickups. Once the deposit clears, your vehicle and pickup time are reserved on the calendar under your name. There is no separate online checkout to fight with and no card stored on file — you pay the deposit through your preferred method, then settle the balance directly with the driver once the trip wraps. Receipts are available on request for either portion. That keeps the money side simple: half to reserve, half on arrival, with the total matching your quote.
A round trip is just double the one-way fare — the same rate each way, booked together so one operator manages both your arrival and your return. You set both pickup times at reservation, and the deposit covers the entire round trip up front. The driver handles each leg, and your return ride is held on the calendar exactly like the arrival.
Daytime pickups add no surcharge. A trip beginning outside those daytime hours carries a small after-hours amount, set by vehicle:
We set aside a vehicle under your name and fix the fare the instant you book, so the price never shifts with traffic, demand, or your landing hour. Your driver is bilingual — English plus Spanish or Portuguese — which keeps the meetup, the directions, and any last-second change easy to sort. You reach a real person straight on WhatsApp before, during, and after the ride, not an app queue, so a schedule tweak or a new pickup time is resolved in one quick message. Your party rides together in a single Black SUV or private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van, with one driver and one point of contact from booking through drop-off. For a group flying into MIA and heading up to the Hollywood coast, that means a known cost and a driver already expecting you as you step outside.
Your flight is monitored, so a delay is handled on its own. The driver follows your inbound flight in real time and moves the pickup to your actual landing — no extra charge and no need to re-book. Early or hours late, the pickup is re-timed to when you truly arrive, and your group is met at the door.
Your driver meets you curbside, waiting at the pickup area as your group leaves the terminal — that curbside meet is part of the rate. Want to be met inside instead? An in-terminal meet-and-greet with a name sign is an optional paid add-on, set up at booking. Either way, your driver is in place when you come out.
Costa Hollywood Beach Resort occupies a walkable beach district on Ocean Drive in Hollywood, Florida, just a short stroll from the sand and the oceanfront promenade. The area blends a resort-town feel with an easy, low-key rhythm: open-air restaurants, ice-cream counters, beach bars, and shops line the pedestrian boardwalk along the shore. Days here center on the beach, casual seafood, and sunset walks rather than a hurried city scene. The resort itself is a modern property built around courtyards, pools, and dining, and it draws vacationing families as well as couples seeking a quieter alternative to the busier beachfronts farther south. Find out more on the Costa Hollywood Beach Resort official site, and see current room and package deals under the resort’s book-direct offers. It makes an easy, beach-first base for a Hollywood stay.
The beach leads the way, with swimming, sunbathing, and a long pedestrian promenade built for biking, jogging, and unhurried evening walks. Around it sit casual seafood spots, open-air cafes, ice-cream stands, and small shops. This calm, family-friendly stretch fits beach days, sunset dinners, and easy strolling better than nightlife-driven outings.
Yes. Costa Hollywood Beach Resort sits in the oceanfront district right off the sand, so the shoreline and the promenade are a short walk from the property — no driving once you have checked in. That walkable setup is a big reason guests choose this stretch of Hollywood for a laid-back beach stay.
The price is per vehicle, not per person. Your entire group rides for one set fare — five passengers in the SUV pay the same as a lone rider. A round trip is simply double that one-way figure. Nothing is billed by headcount, so a fuller vehicle just means better value per seat.
Every passenger gets one checked bag plus one carry-on as standard, so a full SUV or van handles a group’s usual luggage with room to spare. Bringing more, or something oversized? Message us on WhatsApp ahead of time and we will confirm the space or bump you up to a larger private van — the aim is to fit everything comfortably.
Yes. Pickups run from MIA, but we also handle private drop-offs from Costa Hollywood Beach Resort to other airports, Fort Lauderdale included. You book it the same way and the driver collects your group at the resort and takes you to the terminal. Since it is a different route, that fare is quoted at reservation.
