Travel from MIA Airport to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in a private Black SUV or van and the drive occupies somewhere between 10 and 30 minutes, priced from a fixed $80 per vehicle. We work the route both ways between MIA Airport and the Ritz-Carlton Hotel — whichever of the brand’s Miami-region addresses is on your reservation — and the figure is agreed before you board your flight, whether you take one leg or two.
Only one variable moves the price on this transfer, and that is how many of you are travelling; choose the vehicle with enough seats:
This route is covered by three private classes, and headcount plus luggage volume decide between them:
Whichever you take is held for your party and nobody else, which spares a bigger group the business of splitting across rideshares and reassembling in the hotel lobby.
Tell us at booking which Ritz-Carlton property your reservation names, since that address determines the route your driver maps out. The four sit in quite different corners of the Miami region and each has its own feel on arrival:
Not certain which one your reservation lists? Look at your confirmation email or the Ritz-Carlton official site before arranging the transfer.
It does not — this route is covered by the per-group rates printed at the top of the page. Name your property while booking and the fare is put in writing ahead of travel day. What varies between one property and the next is simply the driving route and where you land inside that 10-to-30-minute window.
Between 10 and 30 minutes covers it, door to door. Two things decide your position in that band: which Ritz-Carlton you booked and when you happen to be travelling. Closer properties finish at the short end and the farthest at the long one, while weekday rush hour can drag any of them toward the ceiling. Journeys around midday or in the evening generally flow better than the morning and late-afternoon crush. Coming back, build the pickup around airline check-in and security rather than the driving time alone — say the word at booking and we will propose a departure hour matched to your particular property and flight.
By the time you emerge, the vehicle is already parked at the curb beyond your arrivals door. Collect the checked luggage, walk out through the baggage-claim exit on the arrivals level, and it is sitting right in front of you — nobody rides a shuttle bus to some distant lot, phones for a car, or wanders a crowded garage. Everything you need in order to recognise it comes with your booking confirmation, well before the wheels touch down.
Your side of things stays exactly the same. Each transfer carries flight tracking, so the driver follows your inbound aircraft as it flies and re-times the collection to the real landing rather than whatever the itinerary predicted. A late arrival never obliges you to rebook or to send a message.
Certainly — an in-terminal meet-and-greet, meaning the driver standing inside with a name sign, exists as an optional paid extra. Request it during booking and the arrangement is confirmed before you travel. Left as standard, the transfer uses the kerbside collection described above, which most guests find every bit as quick.
The quoted figure buys the entire journey, and nothing whatsoever is collected at the kerb. Specifically, it takes in:
They are. For a child under 5 the first seat costs nothing — simply request it while booking. Any seat after that adds a fee we confirm at the time of reservation, which means a family arriving with several little ones knows the entire figure before a cent changes hands.
Collections falling between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM are billed at the standard rates shown near the top of this page. Arrive outside those hours and the service still operates — a night rate is simply applied on top:
The total splits into a deposit taken at reservation and a balance handed over on travel day:
Arranging the transfer beforehand keeps this journey as short as it can be. You reserve prior to flying, handing over the travel date, the flight number, and the Ritz-Carlton property named on your booking. Travel day then demands nothing further: luggage goes in the back and the driver takes the straightest available line to your hotel’s main entrance. Nothing to locate inside MIA, no app to open after landing, no queue to stand in with suitcases at your feet. Flying home works identically in reverse — the car reaches the hotel entrance at the hour you nominated and delivers you to your departure terminal, so both halves of the trip run door to door.
The car that collects you carries your party and no one besides — no strangers alongside, no additional stops, no swings past other hotels. What you agreed at booking is what you settle, immune to congestion, demand, or the hour you land, so the number on the confirmation is the number that gets paid. Drivers are bilingual to a man, working in English plus Spanish or Portuguese, which tells when somebody in your group is happier in another language. And a person handles you rather than a platform: one direct WhatsApp line to the operator absorbs questions, changes, and unusual requests before, during, and after the drive. Arriving at a luxury hotel, that combination — your own vehicle, a professional at the wheel, and a number fixed in advance — is what separates a trip that feels handled from one that feels hailed.
Below are the points travellers verify most often before confirming: the way pricing is calculated, how much each vehicle swallows, travelling with animals, and how far across South Florida we will drive.
Per vehicle. Whatever number of seats you occupy, the whole group travels on the single rate listed above. Divide that across a full SUV or van and the figure per guest generally undercuts what individual rides for everyone would come to.
Our version is a private van rather than a shared shuttle: it carries your group only, sets off when your flight lands, and drives straight to the hotel with no other passengers and no additional stops. The van figures in the price list higher up are the whole cost for the entire group.
Every passenger has one checked bag plus one carry-on included, and the vehicles are dimensioned so that allowance travels without anyone holding a case. Arriving with surplus or oversized items? Send a WhatsApp message in advance — we either confirm the room or allocate a bigger van so nothing is stranded at the kerb.
Yes, small animals are welcome given advance notice over WhatsApp, travelling in a carrier for their own protection. Flag the pet while booking so your driver expects the carrier and can allow for it beside the luggage.
We will. Collections happen at MIA Airport and PortMiami, whereas drop-offs reach almost anywhere — different airports, cruise terminals, or towns anywhere in South Florida. Should the journey continue beyond the Ritz-Carlton, give us the whole itinerary at booking and each leg is set up as its own private ride.
It is — the very same vehicles and drivers can be engaged as a private hourly chauffeur, subject to a 5-hour minimum. That suits a day of meetings, a shopping run between Ritz-Carlton properties, or sightseeing where you would rather the car and driver stayed with you than book a string of separate point-to-point rides.
Better coordination and a premium vehicle — a flat rate, a named driver, a pickup keyed to your flight — for a total appreciably below Uber Black or Lyft Lux.
