The journey between Miami International Airport and Belvedere Inn runs in a private black SUV from a fixed $120 for the vehicle, driven by a bilingual chauffeur who collects you at the arrivals curb. That SUV seats up to 5; private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans step in for parties of 6 to 9 or 10 to 14. One rate, agreed in advance, with nothing recalculated for demand.
A single flat figure applies to the vehicle and is settled the moment the booking is made — it covers everyone travelling, rather than multiplying by heads.
Reserve a vehicle sized to your party and the rest takes care of itself. That means a black SUV for up to 5 guests, a private Sprinter van for 6 to 9, or the larger Sprinter for 10 to 14. Send a flight number, a pickup date, and a passenger count by WhatsApp or email; we come back with the vehicle confirmed and the rate set. When you walk out of the terminal the car is already there, so there is no app to open and no rank to negotiate at the end of a long flight. From the curb it is a door-to-door run to the entrance at Belvedere Inn, with somebody else carrying the bags. Prefer to be met inside with a name sign? That meet-and-greet is an optional add-on arranged beforehand. One booking covers the entire trip.
At the arrivals curb, which is the pickup already included in your fare — your driver is standing there as you come out with your bags. If your group would rather be met inside the terminal by someone holding a name sign, that is an optional add-on set up before the day. Either way you have a direct WhatsApp line to the driver on arrival.
Nothing on your side needs to change. Your inbound flight is followed in real time, so a delayed or early landing simply shifts the pickup to match the actual arrival. There is no rebooking to do and no late penalty to pay. You walk out, the car is at the curb, and the trip continues exactly as planned.
The duration depends mostly on when you travel and what the roads are doing that day. Off-peak departures move steadily and feel the smoothest; Miami’s morning and late-afternoon rush adds minutes on the busier corridors. Because the ride is direct, you are never diverted to collect other passengers or held to somebody else’s timetable, so the route stays as short as conditions allow. Pickups are built around your flight rather than a fixed clock. If you have a check-in slot or a table booked at Belvedere Inn, say so when you reserve and we will set the departure with comfortable margin. At confirmation you get a realistic window for your exact date and pickup time.
Three tiers cover almost any party. The black SUV — or SUV XL — is the standard answer for up to 5 passengers and their bags, which makes it the usual pick for couples, families, and small groups. At 6 to 9 guests the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van gives you stand-up room and luggage space without anyone feeling crowded. For 10 to 14 the larger Mercedes-Benz Sprinter keeps the whole party in one vehicle on one fare. Service is identical across the three, so the decision comes down to seats and suitcases rather than tiers of quality. Tell us your headcount and your luggage at booking and we confirm the right vehicle for the run to or from Belvedere Inn.
Yes — the Sprinter vans are exactly that, and they take 6 to 9 or 10 to 14 passengers. Nothing about them is pooled or shared: the van belongs to your party alone, with no other bookings riding along and no circuit of pickups before yours. The rate is charged against the vehicle for the whole group rather than per seat. Send your headcount and we do the rest.
By the car. Your entire group travels on the single figure listed above, whether that is two people or a van filled to capacity. Adding a passenger inside the vehicle’s limit changes nothing about the total. All you have to decide is which vehicle suits the number of people and the number of bags.
One checked bag plus one carry-on per passenger comes with the fare, and for most groups that fits comfortably in whichever SUV or van you have booked. We size the vehicle against your headcount and your luggage at the time of booking, so the space is worked out well before you land rather than negotiated at the curb.
Easily handled — send us a WhatsApp message beforehand describing what you are carrying. We either confirm there is room or move you up to a larger private van so passengers and luggage travel together in one vehicle. Flagging it early is what makes sure the right car is reserved from the outset instead of improvised on the day.
The figure you agree to covers the entire private ride along with several things that quietly cost extra elsewhere. Tolls, SunPass charges, and fuel all sit inside it, so nothing is added along the route and there is no reckoning at the end. A bilingual chauffeur and curbside collection at MIA come as standard. What is left outside the rate is a short list of optional items, and those are set out immediately below so nothing arrives unannounced.
Only a handful of things, all of them optional or declared in advance. An in-terminal meet-and-greet with a name sign is an add-on rather than part of the standard curbside collection. Journeys falling outside daytime hours attract a surcharge. And a second child seat, beyond the first, carries a fee we confirm at the time of booking. Anything optional is agreed before you travel.
Daytime runs from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM and carries nothing extra. Pickups scheduled outside that window take a modest addition, set out below by vehicle type.
Small pets travel with us provided you give advance notice on WhatsApp and they ride in a proper carrier. On the family side, the first seat for a child under 5 is included at no cost, while any additional child seat adds a fee we confirm at booking. Mention both when you reserve and the vehicle arrives already set up.
It is split in two so that booking stays straightforward. Venmo, Zelle, and a secure payment link are all accepted, and cash works for nearby, close-in pickups. Half the total is due at booking to confirm the reservation, and the remaining half goes to your chauffeur on the day of travel. If your plans include an onward leg on the same day, mention it while you are reserving so both the driver and the quote allow for it. At confirmation we spell out the exact deposit and balance figures for your route.
Yes. Two legs go on a single reservation and cost twice the one-way figure, with no quiet markup applied to the return. Both are scheduled together, so your arrival pickup and your run back to MIA are coordinated from the start rather than arranged separately. Share both dates and times at booking and we lock the whole itinerary in one go.
Belvedere Inn is the kind of address people choose for a quiet, well-kept stay paired with a serious reputation at the table. The atmosphere is warm and hospitable — a property where the welcome at the desk, the kitchen, and the comfort of the rooms are all treated as equally important. Arriving by private car means stepping out at the entrance with the luggage already dealt with, rather than working out an unfamiliar area at the end of a travel day. There is more about the rooms and the welcome on the official Belvedere hospitality site, and about the kitchen on the page for contemporary American dining at Belvedere Inn. Whether the visit is a quiet break, a meal, or a business stop, a private transfer keeps the first and last stretch of the trip uncomplicated.
Unhurried, with the dining and local character that make a stay feel settled rather than rushed. Being set down at the entrance by a door-to-door ride means no circling for parking and no working out an unfamiliar street grid with cases in hand at the end of a journey.
Mostly the food, the comfort of the property, and the relaxed feel of the surroundings. Since your transfer is private and direct, the same driver can take you on to a restaurant, a meeting, or another stop later the same day — just include the details when you make the booking.
Private pickups run from MIA Airport and from PortMiami. Drop-offs are not limited to Belvedere Inn either: the same vehicle on the same flat rate will carry you onward to other airports, ports, and cities. Give us the origin and the destination and we confirm both the vehicle and the rate for that route.
The vehicle is held for your group, which means no stranger sitting beside you and no waiting on anyone else’s schedule. Your chauffeur speaks English along with Spanish or Portuguese, and that turns out to matter for the practical business of arriving somewhere new: directions, a change of plan, a question about the neighbourhood. Luggage is handled for you rather than by you. And you reach an actual person on WhatsApp before, during, and after the ride, so a shifted pickup time is a two-line message rather than a support ticket. The price you were shown is the price you settle at the door of Belvedere Inn.
A tighter, more upscale arrangement — one agreed fare, a named chauffeur, a pickup keyed to your flight — for markedly less than an Uber Black or Lyft Lux would total.
