A private Black SUV covers the route between MIA Airport and Hotel Greystone Miami Beach — 11.1 miles (17.8 km) along I-195 over the Julia Tuttle Causeway — in roughly 31 to 33 minutes, for a fixed fare starting at $80 per vehicle. Parties of 6 to 14 ride together in a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van instead, reserved the same way and driven straight to the door.
Select your vehicle by how many are traveling — each rate below is the full door-to-door fare between the airport and the hotel, run in either direction.
This route runs with three private vehicle classes; pick by your headcount and bags, and the entire vehicle belongs to your party regardless.
Count on about 31 minutes door to door off-peak, rising to roughly 33 minutes at the busiest times — a remarkably narrow window for Miami traffic.
Leave extra room for the parts of arrival that the drive time does not include: getting off the plane, immigration on international flights, and the wait at the baggage carousel all come before the vehicle even pulls away. Weekday afternoon rush hour and major event weekends push the trip toward the high end, while early mornings and late nights land near the low figure. Whichever it is, the drive itself stays the short, dependable part of your day of travel.
Start from the check-in time your airline recommends, then add the drive plus a buffer for loading bags and afternoon traffic. When you book the return leg we settle on a sensible pickup time together, so you are never guessing — and never running a departure too close.
Tolls, SunPass charges, and fuel are already folded into every rate, and each vehicle carries onboard WiFi over a mobile hotspot.
The highway tolls between the airport and Miami Beach are paid through the vehicle’s SunPass — the driver never pulls over at a booth and never passes a toll back to you. Hotspot WiFi is running the second you sit down, which helps for texting the hotel about an early check-in or letting people know you have landed, all without switching on international roaming.
Two optional items fall outside the base fare: an in-terminal meet-and-greet, where the driver stands inside arrivals with a name sign (a paid add-on you request when booking), and the night rate for pickups outside daytime hours, shown near the bottom of this page. Nothing beyond those is added to your quoted price.
Yes — the first child seat is complimentary for a child under 5; simply ask for it at booking. Any additional seat carries a small fee that we confirm before you pay a cent. List your children’s ages in your first message and the correct seats will be fitted and waiting.
Small pets are welcome once two things are set up beforehand: a heads-up over WhatsApp when you book, and a pet carrier for the trip. Note the animal’s size when you reserve and we sort it all out in the same chat, so nothing catches you or the driver off guard.
A transfer booked in advance is the most direct route: one vehicle, one driver, and a straight run from the terminal to the hotel door with nothing left to sort out once you land.
The booking flow has three steps. Send your travel date, flight number, and party size; we reply with vehicle choices and confirm the one you select; on the day you arrive, you walk out of the terminal and get in. There is no counter to hunt down, no app to fight with on airport WiFi, and no line of strangers ahead of you. The same arrangement runs in reverse for the trip home — your driver gathers everyone at the hotel entrance and delivers you to your departure terminal. Bigger groups benefit most: a single private van carries the whole party with all its luggage at once, rather than splitting a celebration, a family reunion, or a work team into several cars that show up at different moments.
Hotel Greystone is an adults-only boutique hotel housed in a restored Art Deco landmark on Collins Avenue, right in the middle of Miami Beach. It matches its classic facade with a fully modern interior: a rooftop pool and bar, cozy cocktail lounges, live music, and design-led rooms built for grown-up guests who want South Beach buzz minus the spring-break crowd. Being adults-only, it attracts couples, honeymooners, and friends’ getaways rather than families with children. Room types, dining, and amenities are detailed on the Hotel Greystone official site, and the property routinely lists seasonal packages on its Miami Beach offers page — worth a look before you commit to dates.
The hotel’s block of Collins Avenue keeps the classic Miami Beach roster close at hand: the beach itself, the pastel streets of the Art Deco district, the open-air shops and restaurants of Lincoln Road, and the after-dark buzz of Ocean Drive. Galleries, spas, and beach clubs line the nearby blocks.
The vehicle is yours alone, the driver speaks your language, and the fare can’t shift once you book — those three promises are the heart of the service.
Exclusive use means nobody unknown beside you, no side trips to other hotels, and no waiting while someone else’s luggage is loaded — the vehicle heads where you are headed and nowhere else. Drivers are bilingual, handling English along with Spanish or Portuguese, which counts for a lot when plans change mid-trip. The rate is fixed the instant you book: it won’t climb with demand, weather, traffic, or a hectic cruise weekend. And from your very first message to the final drop-off, you’re talking to a real person on WhatsApp instead of a ticket queue or a chatbot — ask something and a human replies, usually in minutes.
Yes — pickups outside the usual daytime window carry a modest night rate, because the driver works the trip beyond normal operating hours. How much depends on the vehicle:
Payment breaks into a deposit and a balance, and you pick whichever method works best for you:
Yes. Card payments go through a secure payment link, so you never read a card number out loud or send one by text. Venmo and Zelle transfers stay inside those apps under their own safeguards. We never request card details over chat, by email, or by phone.
These are the questions guests most often send us on WhatsApp before reserving this route. Each answer below covers both directions of travel and every vehicle class we run between MIA and Miami Beach, so you can book with the whole picture in front of you.
Nothing on your side — your driver watches the incoming flight live and re-times the pickup to your real landing, at no cost. Give us your flight number at booking and the schedule adjusts on its own; a delay never loses you the reservation or brings a late fee.
The included pickup is curbside: your driver rolls up to the arrivals-level curb outside your concourse as you step out, ready to take your bags. Send your door number on WhatsApp once you have your luggage, and the vehicle is waiting by the time you reach the sidewalk.
Every passenger gets one checked bag and one carry-on included. Bringing extra or oversized pieces? Let us know on WhatsApp ahead of time — we confirm there’s room or move you up to a larger private van, so nobody in your group is stranded at the curb.
Per vehicle, every time. The number in the price list covers the whole SUV or private van, not a seat — a couple and a group of five pay the identical total. We never tack on per-person charges, and how you divide the fare among your group is entirely yours to decide.
Yes — private pickups run from both MIA Airport and PortMiami, so cruise passengers bound for Hotel Greystone book the very same service. Drop-offs are even more open-ended: from the hotel, we can take you to other airports, ports, and Florida cities on request, not only back to MIA.
A more coordinated, premium service — flat fare, named driver, flight-tracked pickup — for a substantially lower total than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.
