A private Black SUV covers the 11.1 miles (17.8 km) from MIA Airport to Loews Miami Beach Hotel in 31-33 minutes, at a flat rate from $80 per vehicle. We run door-to-door rides to or from MIA Airport and Loews Miami Beach Hotel via the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836), with private Sprinter vans available for larger groups.
A one-way private transfer between the airport and the hotel costs:
A pre-booked private transfer is the most direct option for this route. You reserve before you fly by sending your travel date, flight number, and group size; a specific vehicle and driver are then assigned to your booking. When you land, there are no rental counters to visit, no rideshare zones to locate, and no lines to stand in — you load your bags and ride straight to the hotel entrance without intermediate stops. Solo travelers, couples, and full families all travel the same way: one reserved vehicle, one driver, one continuous trip. Because the reservation is made in advance, the busiest arrival periods at MIA change nothing about your pickup; the car is committed to you before your plane touches down, and the price you confirmed is the price you pay.
Public transit does connect the airport to Miami Beach, but it involves transfers, scheduled stops, and carrying your luggage between them. A private transfer removes all of that: the car leaves when you land and stops only at the hotel door. For two or more people splitting one fare, the convenience gap is hard to ignore.
Three things separate this service from whatever transportation you might piece together after landing. First, the fare is a flat rate locked at booking: it does not rise with traffic, demand, weather, or how late your flight actually arrives. Second, every driver is bilingual — English plus Spanish or Portuguese — which removes the friction of coordinating a pickup after a long international flight. Third, the vehicle is reserved for your group from pickup to drop-off, so the trip starts when you are ready and ends at your hotel, not someone else’s. Those three points cover the moments where airport rides usually go wrong: pricing, communication, and routing. Everything else on this page is detail.
No app, no account, no download. Booking happens over WhatsApp or email: you send your flight details, receive a confirmation, and keep that same conversation open for any changes. On travel day, the thread you already have is your direct line to the driver and the operation.
Plan on 31 to 33 minutes door to door. The low end of that range applies to off-peak departures — late morning, early afternoon, late evening — while the top end reflects weekday rush hours and busy beach weekends. The spread stays small because most of the trip is expressway driving rather than stop-and-go surface streets, so even heavy traffic adds minutes, not hours. Your driver follows live conditions and adjusts the routing on the fly; you never need to study a map or pick an alternate. Heading to the airport instead? Use the same window, then add whatever check-in cushion your airline recommends once you reach the terminal.
Weekday mornings and late afternoons are the slowest windows, along with weekend afternoons when beach traffic builds. Those periods push the trip toward the top of the quoted range rather than doubling it. Early-morning and midday pickups usually move at the quickest pace this route allows.
Loews Miami Beach Hotel places you in the heart of South Beach, the most walkable and most photographed part of Miami Beach. The surrounding neighborhood mixes pastel Art Deco architecture, sidewalk cafes, cocktail lounges, galleries, and boutiques, all wrapped around a beach culture that runs from sunrise swims to late-night music. It suits nearly every kind of trip: beach vacations, food-driven weekends, nightlife getaways, and conferences that end with a few days off. You can read more about the property itself on Loews Miami Beach Hotel, but the short version is that once you have checked in, the neighborhood does most of the entertaining — which is exactly why a direct, single-stop arrival from the airport is worth arranging in advance.
The blocks around the hotel hold the densest concentration of restaurants, bars, and shops in Miami Beach. Lincoln Road’s open-air pedestrian mall, the Art Deco district, and the cafes and nightlife of Ocean Drive all sit in the surrounding neighborhood, reachable on foot without needing a car for the evening.
Yes — it is an oceanfront resort, with the sand and the Atlantic directly behind the property, so beach time requires nothing more than walking out the back of the hotel. That direct access is one of the main reasons travelers choose this stretch of South Beach for their stay.
Three private vehicle classes serve this route, and the right one depends purely on headcount and luggage:
Every shuttle-style vehicle we send is a private Sprinter van — never a shared ride. If you are searching for a shuttle because you have a big group, the private van fills that role: it carries the whole party and all the luggage in one trip, departs when you are ready instead of on a fixed schedule, and drives only to your destination.
The per-vehicle rate is all-inclusive for the trip itself. Highway tolls and SunPass charges are covered, fuel is covered, and the vehicle carries onboard WiFi through a mobile hotspot, so you can get online during the drive without touching roaming data. The first child seat is also included at no charge for a child under 5 — just mention the child’s age when you book. Standard luggage for every passenger is part of the service as well, with the exact allowance detailed below.
Only three items sit outside the standard rate: an in-terminal meet-and-greet, where the driver waits inside the terminal holding a name sign, is an optional paid add-on; child seats beyond the first carry a fee confirmed at booking; and pickups outside daytime hours carry the night surcharge shown further down this page. Nothing else gets added.
Each passenger travels with one checked bag and one carry-on included. Bringing extra or oversized bags? Message us on WhatsApp before travel day and we will confirm the space or move your group up to a larger van so everything rides together. Luggage is a planning detail, not a problem.
Small pets are welcome with two conditions: let us know in advance over WhatsApp, and bring a pet carrier for the trip. With those covered, your pet boards with the rest of the family and rides in the climate-controlled cabin straight to the hotel.
Payment splits into two halves: a deposit that locks your reservation and a balance settled on the day of travel.
Nothing you need to manage. Your driver tracks the inbound flight in real time, so a late landing simply shifts the pickup to match the actual arrival. You do not message anyone from the plane, you do not rebook, and the fare does not change — walk out whenever you land and the ride is ready.
The included pickup is curbside: when you exit your terminal on the arrivals level, your vehicle is waiting at the curb directly outside. Your confirmation tells you exactly which vehicle and driver to look for, so there is no scanning a parking garage or phoning around with your bags in the heat.
Per vehicle, always. The figures in the price list at the top of this page cover the entire car or van, no matter how many seats you fill within its capacity. A family of five in the SUV pays the same single fare a solo traveler would, which is why groups almost always come out ahead booking private.
Yes — the service runs in both directions. For the return leg, your driver waits at the Loews lobby entrance at the scheduled time, loads the bags, and drops you at your airline’s terminal door. Many travelers book both legs together as a round trip so the departure ride is already arranged before the vacation even starts.
Daytime hours run from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and every trip inside that window is charged at the standard rates listed at the top of this page. Pickups outside those hours carry a small surcharge:
A more coordinated, premium service — flat fare, named driver, flight-tracked pickup — at a significantly lower total cost than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.
