Thirty-and-a-bit miles separate Miami International Airport from the Courtyard by Marriott Fort Lauderdale SW/Miramar Hotel — 30.4 miles (48.9 km), or somewhere between 46 and 53 minutes behind the wheel of a Black SUV or private van, from a flat $120 for the vehicle. The chauffeur meets you at the arrivals curb and runs north on the I-95 Express lanes to the hotel entrance.
One figure per vehicle, settled at the instant you reserve — no surge, no markup for traffic, no arithmetic based on how many of you there are. Choose the vehicle that matches the party and the number below is the entire cost.
Roughly 46 minutes when the roads are quiet, edging toward 53 when they are not, across the full 30.4 miles (48.9 km) between terminal and hotel. Nearly all of that distance sits on the I-95 Express lanes climbing north out of Miami into Broward County. The hour you choose decides where you land inside the range: a mid-morning or late-evening arrival usually comes in near the shorter figure, while a weekday rush pushes toward the longer one. Your chauffeur weighs the live traffic picture before committing to a route, so a known snarl can be avoided when going around it actually saves time. Give yourself a little margin for whatever comes after and you will arrive settled rather than hurried.
Arrange a door-to-door transfer before you fly and there is nothing left to solve when you land. Reserve the vehicle that fits the numbers — Black SUV for up to 5 passengers, private Sprinter van for 6 to 9, bigger van for 10 to 14. The chauffeur is at the curb when you land, which removes the app and the queue in one go. Bags in, everyone into a climate-controlled cabin, and the car turns north on the I-95 Express lanes for Miramar. Setting it up costs one WhatsApp message or one email carrying the flight number, arrival time, passenger count, and the hotel address. The same service runs the other way for the departure, collecting you at the hotel and returning you to the terminal with time in hand.
The standard arrangement is curbside: collect your bags, walk out of the terminal, and the chauffeur is already there with the vehicle. If you would rather be met inside the arrivals area by someone holding a name sign, that in-terminal meet-and-greet is an optional paid upgrade you can attach at booking.
Flight tracking is built into every booking, so a delay resolves itself without you touching anything. Your chauffeur follows the inbound flight in real time and moves the pickup to the actual touchdown — no rebooking, and no charge for the new timing. Simply travel; the curbside meet slides to whenever you genuinely land.
Three private classes run this route, and whichever you pick is held for your booking:
Send us the headcount and a sense of the luggage and we pair the right vehicle to it; where the bags outweigh the seats, we size up before the day rather than discover it at the curb.
Every passenger travels with 1 checked bag plus 1 carry-on inside the quoted fare. That is the allowance the vehicle is planned around, and for the great majority of groups it is more than enough. Think of it as the figure we plan to rather than a limit anyone polices at the curb.
The SUV swallows a small family’s load without complaint, while the Sprinter vans absorb a full group’s gear including the awkward pieces. Hauling something outsized — golf clubs, a stroller, a fourth case — send a WhatsApp message first and we either confirm the room or move you up to a larger van so nothing has to be left behind.
The car, always. Your entire group rides on the one figure listed above, and it does not multiply — two passengers or a van holding fourteen, the number on the booking stays where it is. All you are choosing between is capacity.
Our Sprinter van is what people mean when they search for a shuttle on this route, with one important difference: it is never pooled. The vehicle is held for your group alone at the per-vehicle rate shown in the prices list above. Pick the 6-9 or the 10-14 passenger van and that is the price — no strangers, no circuit of stops, no per-seat ticket.
The quoted price buys the private vehicle held for your group and a bilingual chauffeur to drive it, and it absorbs every road cost along the way: tolls, SunPass charges, and fuel are all inside the figure, with nothing collected mid-trip. Onboard WiFi runs off a mobile hotspot for the length of the ride. Small pets are welcome given advance notice on WhatsApp and a proper carrier. Child seats are covered too — the first seat for a child under 5 comes at no extra cost.
A short list sits outside the base fare. An in-terminal meet-and-greet with a name sign is a paid upgrade beyond the curbside pickup already included. Each child seat after the first carries a small fee confirmed at booking. Departures outside daytime hours take a night surcharge, set out just below. And extra or oversized bags may call for a larger vehicle, which we arrange in advance rather than on the day.
Daytime spans 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM and carries nothing extra. Trips falling outside that window take a small addition, set by vehicle.
In two parts, and flexibly. Venmo, Zelle, and a secure payment link all work, and cash is fine for nearby, close-in pickups. A 50% deposit up front secures the booking, and the remaining 50% goes to your chauffeur on travel day. Nothing shifts between those two moments — what you agreed to at the deposit is exactly what you settle at the end.
Cash works for nearby, close-in pickups. Longer or pre-booked airport runs are better handled with Venmo, Zelle, or the secure payment link for the deposit, with your chauffeur collecting the remaining balance on the day of travel. Confirm which you would prefer on WhatsApp at the time of booking so everything is agreed before you arrive.
Yes. The same private service runs to or from MIA Airport and Courtyard by Marriott Fort Lauderdale SW/Miramar Hotel, and a round trip goes on one reservation at twice the one-way price. Your chauffeur collects you at the hotel for the return and delivers you back to the terminal with time to check in properly.
The hotel stands in Miramar, a quiet residential and business pocket of southwest Broward County, north of Miami and well inland from the coast. The character of the area is suburban and practical — corporate parks, regional offices, shopping centers, and familiar dining gathered within a short local drive — which makes it a natural base for business travelers and for families visiting the region. South Florida’s beaches, downtown districts, and headline attractions all stay within reach by car, while the immediate neighbourhood remains calm and uncongested. You can look over the property on the Courtyard by Marriott Fort Lauderdale SW/Miramar overview or compare layouts on the room and rate page before you arrive.
Anyone who wants a calmer, value-minded base away from the beachfront crush. Parking is easy, the shopping is suburban, and the highways run quickly toward Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, and Miami. Guests here are typically in town for business in the nearby office parks, for a sporting event, or as a staging point before exploring the wider region.
The car belongs to your booking and nobody else’s, which means no extra stops and no pooled route quietly adding an hour to your evening. Your chauffeur is bilingual, speaking English plus Spanish or Portuguese, so the meet-up and any last-minute change are straightforward to sort out. Reaching us is equally direct: a single WhatsApp thread carries the booking, the flight details, and whatever comes up on the day. Onboard WiFi keeps the group connected through the ride north. What you end up with is an arranged service built around your arrival rather than a car you go hunting for after landing.
One price agreed before you fly, one chauffeur who knows your name, one pickup keyed to the flight: a calmer arrangement, and markedly less than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.
