This is a door-to-door private transfer to or from MIA and The Merriweather Resort — roughly 32.3 miles and 49–63 minutes by I-95 — reserved ahead at a flat rate from $120 per vehicle, in a chauffeured SUV with a bilingual driver who tracks your flight.
Prices are set per vehicle for the one-way trip, agreed up front, with tolls and fuel already included.
For The Merriweather Resort, a pre-booked private transfer beats a taxi line or a rideshare wait — your chauffeured SUV and driver are reserved for your arrival.
After you clear the terminal, the driver meets you and heads out via I-95, so the roughly 32.3-mile trip is one smooth ride.
Known for its beach and canal-lined waterways, Fort Lauderdale centres on Las Olas Boulevard, the Riverwalk, and Port Everglades — one of the world’s busiest cruise ports.
With the port near Fort Lauderdale, we handle airport-to-hotel and hotel-to-terminal runs on the same flat-rate, flight-tracked basis.
Meet-and-greet is standard: the driver is in the terminal area as you arrive, helps with the bags, and walks you to the vehicle.
A stay at The Merriweather Resort often means a schedule to keep — a flat-rate private car with a set pickup time keeps meetings around Fort Lauderdale tight and predictable.
Every ride is a private vehicle for your party alone — a higher level of service, not a pooled van or a rideshare pickup.
We keep payment simple — confirm with a deposit, then settle the rest your way.
The area puts you near Fort Lauderdale Beach, the Riverwalk, with Port Everglades and Hugh Taylor Birch State Park also within easy reach of Fort Lauderdale.
Plan on about 49 to 63 minutes from MIA to The Merriweather Resort, depending on traffic.
Off-peak, I-95 moves quickly; morning and late-afternoon rush push the drive toward the higher end, which is why the driver watches your flight and adjusts the pickup.
Plan on about 49 to 63 minutes door to door, depending on traffic. Off-peak is quicker; rush hour is the slower end.
The driver tracks your arrival and meets you after you exit the terminal, helps with the luggage, and walks you to the vehicle.
Figure one checked bag plus a carry-on per passenger in the SUV; the vans hold more. Message us in advance for oversized or extra bags and we confirm the right vehicle.
It is the flat per-vehicle rate listed above — a private van, not a shared shuttle. A round trip is simply double the one-way price.
Yes. A return is booked the same way and priced at double the one-way fare, with the return pickup arranged for your date and time.
For very early or late departures, a small after-hours surcharge applies:
Booking ahead buys predictability an app cannot. The price to The Merriweather Resort is agreed up front and never surges the way an Uber or Lyft fare does at a busy hour, and the car is held for your group rather than assigned at the curb.
A delay is handled for free on our side; on an app you would start over and risk the surge. The result is one reserved car, one price set in advance, and a calmer arrival than watching a fare climb in a pickup queue.

We recommend booking a minimum of 24 hours before your trip. During holiday periods and packed weekends, the earlier you reserve, the more likely we’ll have a vehicle open for you.
Yes indeed — guests from any country are welcome to reserve. Overseas payments are no problem, and we stay in touch with you by WhatsApp and email throughout.
Not really — every trip has to be set up in advance. Try to give us four hours’ notice or more, because same-day slots can’t be guaranteed.
Yes. Putting down a deposit holds your spot: pay 50% on trips under $199 USD, or 30% once the fare reaches $200 USD and above.
You can’t cover the whole fare that way — first lock in your car with a 50% deposit through our payment link or Zelle, and then pay the remaining balance in cash when the driver shows up.
Far from it — aside from airports, we also pick up at hotels, ports, train stations, restaurants, and private homes.
We run SUV XLs suited to smaller groups, vans with 12 and 14 seats, and large buses holding 40 to 54 passengers for big occasions.

By default we do curbside pickup. Send us a text with your exit gate and your driver will be there in just a few minutes — faster than the traditional sign-holding wait.
Would you rather have a driver holding a name sign inside the terminal? That option is available for US$ 20.
One day before your trip, you’ll receive a message from us listing the driver’s name, the car model, and the plate number, plus complete instructions for the curbside meeting point.
Don’t panic — the instant your plane touches down, we’ll send you a text. Should you not reply soon, your driver will make their way to the international arrivals hall. Just stay put there and we’ll come to you; no one is ever abandoned.
Domestic flights: up to 60 minutes after you land
International flights: 120 minutes of complimentary waiting
Hotel pickups: a 15-minute grace period
Port pickups: up to 60 minutes past the scheduled time
This is an unusual situation, because two hours of free waiting are built in already. Remaining in the airport beyond that point may be treated as a no-show. Extra waiting can be purchased — US$ 30 per additional 30-minute block, paid directly to the driver in cash.
Definitely — your driver is happy to help you with your bags.
Each person is allowed one large suitcase along with a single carry-on as standard. Planning to bring extras — additional bags, musical instruments, mobility equipment, or strollers? Tell us ahead of time so we can get ready; there may be an additional fee.
Yes — we happily accept small pets provided they remain in a secure carrier. Do let us know beforehand.
For children under five, one child car seat comes at no charge. Want more than one? Ask for it while booking; every extra seat is US$ 15.
Please refrain from eating on board. The sole beverage permitted is water in a sealed bottle.
Spontaneous stops aren’t covered by the standard fare, though a short, nearby one set up beforehand can be included. The additional time might carry a small charge.
Yes, of course. Give us a minimum of 24 hours’ notice and, if space allows, we’ll shift your pickup to a new time.
What we quote is precisely what you’ll be charged. A gratuity for the driver is completely optional, though always welcome.
