The private run between MIA Airport and Walkabout Beach Resort measures 25.6 miles (41.2 km) and occupies roughly 45 to 52 minutes door to door, off-peak through peak, in a chauffeured Black SUV at a fixed price from $120 per vehicle. The drive climbs north on the I-95 Express lanes toward Hollywood, with a bilingual driver waiting for you curbside.
Every figure below belongs to the vehicle, is fixed the instant you reserve, and carries your entire group one way to or from the resort.
Walkabout Beach Resort stands in Hollywood, Florida, an oceanfront slice of South Florida coast recognized for its wide sandy beach and a relaxed, family-friendly pace far removed from the downtown rush. The property faces the Atlantic, and everything around it orbits the famous beachfront promenade — casual seafood spots, ice-cream stands, bike rentals and small shops filling the walkable blocks by the water. It is the kind of neighborhood where breakfast, a day on the sand, and live music or a sunset stroll all happen without a car. Amenities and stay planning live on the resort’s official website, and there is a broader picture of the destination on the local visitor bureau listing.
In Hollywood, a beachfront community on the Atlantic between Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Low-key and walkable describes it well, with life organized around the beach and its promenade and a mix of vacationers and residents. Guests who want sand and ocean without big-city crowds are the ones who end up here.
The beach leads, backed by the oceanfront promenade for walking, jogging and biking. Casual restaurants, cafes and beach-gear shops sit within easy reach, and the calm shoreline lends itself to swimming and sunbathing. Come evening, live music and waterfront dining are a short stroll from the resort doors.
Between 45 and 52 minutes door to door, and traffic decides where you land in that band. With clear roads off-peak, the 25.6-mile stretch along the I-95 Express lanes finishes near 45 minutes. Once the morning or late-afternoon rush fills the northbound lanes, plan for the ride to grow toward 52. Weather and how many flights are unloading at the terminal can move the curbside meet a few minutes either way, which is exactly why your driver follows the inbound flight rather than a fixed clock. Land early or land late and the pickup time shifts with you at no added charge, so the 45-to-52-minute window describes the drive itself once you are seated and moving. During peak hours, planning around the upper end keeps a comfortable buffer.
Three private tiers cover the trip to Walkabout Beach Resort, each held for your party alone. Choose on passenger count and bags, and message us whenever the right answer is not obvious.
One checked bag plus one carry-on per passenger is the standard, and both the Black SUV and the Sprinter vans handle that comfortably. Arriving with additional or oversized bags? Message us on WhatsApp beforehand and we confirm the space or move you up to a larger van. Planning it in advance beats guessing at the curb.
They are. Small pets travel with advance notice on WhatsApp and must ride in a pet carrier. Mention it while booking so the right vehicle is assigned and the driver knows the carrier is coming. Flag it ahead of time and nothing catches anyone out at the curb.
Yes. The first child seat for a child under 5 comes free — request it at booking so the driver fits it before pickup. Each extra seat carries a small additional fee, confirmed at booking. Share the child’s age and the correct seat type goes into the SUV or van.
The flat fare covers the private vehicle for your whole group, the bilingual driver, and every cost of the drive itself. Tolls, SunPass and fuel are all folded into the price, leaving nothing to settle on the road. Flight tracking belongs to it as well: the driver follows your inbound flight and stands ready curbside as you exit, with no waiting-line fee on a normal arrival. Onboard, a mobile hotspot supplies WiFi for the ride. Luggage is part of it too at one checked bag plus one carry-on per passenger, easily handled by the SUV or van. What follows sets out a few specifics along with the extras that fall outside the base rate.
A short list sits beyond the fixed price. An in-terminal meet-and-greet with a name sign is an optional paid add-on confirmed at booking; the pickup included as standard is curbside. A trip outside daytime hours carries a night surcharge, detailed below. Child seats past the first also carry a small added fee, confirmed when you book.
Surcharge-free daytime hours run from 7 AM to 9 PM. A pickup landing outside that window carries a modest night charge, applied according to the vehicle tier you book.
The payment divides so the car is reserved up front and the rest is settled on the day. A deposit confirms the booking, and the balance goes to your driver when you ride.
By car, never by head. Your whole group rides for the single flat price shown in the fare list above, whether the SUV carries one passenger or five. A return doubles the one-way, and a pickup after 9 PM adds the night surcharge described above — no per-head arithmetic and no unexpected extras.
“Shuttle” in this context means a private van held only for your group, never a shared or pooled ride. What you pay is the flat per-vehicle van fare listed in the prices section above, set at booking with tolls, SunPass and fuel already inside it. Pick the 6-to-9 or 10-to-14 tier on passenger count; the whole party travels together for one price.
Curbside, just outside your arrivals terminal at MIA. Because the inbound flight is tracked live, the car is in position for your real landing, and a WhatsApp message tells you precisely where to walk once the bags are with you. Would you rather the driver waited inside holding a name sign? Add the optional in-terminal meet-and-greet at booking.
Nothing shifts for you. The driver follows your inbound flight, so an early or late landing simply moves the curbside pickup with it. Re-timing around a delay is free and part of the service — no re-booking, no surge, and no lost car. Walk out and your driver is waiting.
Send the flight number, date, passenger count and pickup spot over WhatsApp or email. Back comes the vehicle and the flat fare in writing, a 50% deposit holds it, and your named driver is assigned. That confirmation reaches you directly rather than through an automated queue.
A private door-to-door transfer in a vehicle held for your group only. Reserve, then choose the tier that suits the party: a Black SUV for up to 5 passengers, a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van for 6 to 9, or a bigger Sprinter for 10 to 14. Your driver monitors the inbound flight live and is standing curbside as you emerge from the terminal, so no app needs launching and no queue needs joining. From the airport the car runs north on the I-95 Express lanes toward Hollywood and continues straight to the resort entrance. Reserving is a single WhatsApp message or a short email — confirm the date, flight number, passenger count and pickup spot, and the fare holds from then on. The identical private service operates in reverse for the trip back to MIA.
Your group travels alone in a vehicle set aside for you, never pooled with strangers and never diverted to collect other riders. The rate is a fixed price locked at booking, so traffic, demand or a crowded arrival hall cannot alter what you pay. Your driver is bilingual, speaking English along with Spanish or Portuguese, which smooths the first minutes after a long flight. A real person answers on WhatsApp before, during and after the trip rather than a faceless dispatch line, so a gate change or a slow bag carousel gets resolved by message in seconds. The car is a clean, climate-controlled Black SUV or Sprinter van matched to your party, and the chauffeur handles the doors and the bags. That combination — one private vehicle, one fixed fare, one named driver you can message — is what distinguishes the service on the run up to Hollywood.
A steadier, more polished service — a flat fare, a named driver, a pickup keyed to your flight — for a good deal less overall than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.
