Private ride from MIA to Loews Coral Gables, 4.3 miles down Le Jeune Road in about 16 minutes, flat $80 per vehicle. Book by WhatsApp.
The rate is tied to the car and pinned the instant you reserve, so a single flat figure moves your whole party — tolls and fuel already folded in.
Almost any group fits one of three private tiers, chosen from your passenger and bag counts before travel day.
Every car is kept for your group alone. Sitting right on a seat boundary, or carrying extra bags? A message first lets us confirm the fit or move you up a size so no one rides cramped.
Figure a checked case and a carry-on for each rider. A family’s bags barely trouble the black SUV, and the Sprinter vans hold far more still. Traveling with surplus or oversized pieces? A message ahead lets us verify the room or step you up to a larger van so the lot comes along.
Door to door it’s roughly 16 to 17 minutes, set by the hour. Off the peaks — first light, mid-evening — the 4.3-mile (6.9 km) run toward downtown Coral Gables sits near 16. In the busiest commuting windows the same trip lengthens only slightly; the distance is short and the path skirts the worst freeway snarls. And because the fare was locked beforehand, a crawl through afternoon traffic can’t lift the price — you pay what you agreed however the roads run. The driver rolls the moment you and your bags are in, which off-peak is a few minutes after you reach the kerb. Racing a connection or a dinner reservation? Give it the full 17 minutes and you’ll rarely need more.
This county holds two Loews properties: the inland one here in Coral Gables, and a much bigger beachfront hotel out on the barrier island. They aren’t close, and a booking carrying only the brand leaves the wrong one perfectly plausible.
Name the city — better, the street address — and three words settle it. Since the chauffeur navigates by the address, not the sign on the building, the first message asks for it.
That flat fare buys the whole private ride, the bilingual driver, and the charges that tend to ambush passengers. Tolls, SunPass, and fuel all live in the price, nothing added at the roadside. The default meeting is kerbside, the driver waiting there as you clear the terminal. WiFi runs off a mobile hotspot. A checked case and a carry-on per rider are covered, while surplus or oversized pieces are arranged when you message ahead, so we confirm the space or move up to a larger van.
Just a few items sit beyond the base fare. A name-sign meeting inside the terminal is an optional paid add-on in place of the standard kerbside collection. A child under five takes the first seat free, and each seat after runs an extra fee agreed at booking. Small animals are welcome given advance WhatsApp notice and a carrier.
Daytime runs 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM without surcharge. A journey landing outside it takes a modest after-hours addition on top of the flat fare:
The total splits so nothing goes over in full beforehand, with a handful of simple methods open to you.
As soon as the deposit clears, the car is held under your name and a driver is tied to your flight, so the collection is set up long before you touch down.
Both are fine. Small animals ride given advance WhatsApp notice and inside a carrier. For kids, a child under five takes the first seat free, with each further seat running an extra fee agreed at booking. Share ages and pet plans while reserving so the right vehicle is readied.
Kerbside is the standard: bags in hand, terminal behind you, the driver already at the kerb having watched the flight land. Rather be met inside beneath a name sign? That meet-and-greet is an optional paid add-on you request while booking.
Nothing changes at your end. Your driver follows the inbound flight live and shifts the collection to your true landing, so a delay never costs you the car or the fare. With the rate fixed at booking, a late arrival can’t produce a higher price.
Per vehicle, not per person. The one flat price in the list above carries your entire group, two riders or a full van the same. Nothing is billed by the head, so a fuller car is simply better value for everyone in it.
Our private vans answer that “shuttle” search, but strictly as a private ride for your group — no sharing, no timetable. The cost is the per-vehicle van rate above, fixed at booking, tolls and fuel included. Choose the 6-9 or the 10-14 tier for your party.
Buses and rail do serve the area, but riding them means changes, waiting, and walking with luggage. This service does away with all of it: a single private vehicle meets you at the kerb and drives the 4.3 miles straight to the hotel door in about 16 minutes.
Easiest by a wide margin is a private door-to-door transfer that collects you at the kerb and drops you at the hotel entrance. Book a vehicle sized to your party — black SUV for as many as five, a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter for six to nine, or a bigger Sprinter for ten to fourteen — and the driver runs the rest. On landing he’s at the kerb already, having followed the flight, so you walk out and step in. Nothing to open on a phone, no queue, no separate meeting point to find. The route makes its short southbound run toward downtown Coral Gables, the bag count matched to your group beforehand so every person and case fits. To reserve, send the WhatsApp number on this page your flight, the date, how many are traveling, and the hotel name; it comes back confirmed with the vehicle held under your name.
Loews Coral Gables Hotel stands at the edge of downtown Coral Gables, a polished district known for Mediterranean-revival architecture, tree-lined boulevards, and a walkable core of upscale shops and restaurants.
The surrounding blocks read corporate and refined — consulate offices, banking towers, and law firms alongside long-standing fine-dining rooms and pavement cafés. Boutiques, bridal salons, and white-tablecloth restaurants draw crowds along the Miracle Mile corridor, while galleries, landmark fountains, and historic Spanish-style courtyards turn up across the wider area. Set against the beaches and nightlife, it’s the calmer, more residential option, favored by business passengers, conference-goers, and couples wanting refinement within reach of everything. Look the property over on the official Loews Coral Gables Hotel listing, or browse its Michelin hotel guide page before you arrive.
A quick run of answers to what travelers most often ask before booking the MIA leg into Coral Gables — where you meet, delays, luggage, and how the price works.
A private car is set aside for your group and nobody else — never pooled, never a stranger in the back. What you agreed at booking is a flat fare, so congestion, demand, or a late landing leaves the number alone. Your bilingual driver works in English along with Spanish or Portuguese, easing the arrival for international passengers. Flight tracking is built in, so a schedule change never strands you. Luggage is planned for, not an afterthought: a checked case and a carry-on per rider ride comfortably, and we size up in advance for more. Contact stays direct — one WhatsApp thread reaches a real person who confirms the collection, answers questions, and moves the time when plans shift. The result is a calmer arrival with one point of contact from booking to the hotel kerb.
Better organization and an upscale vehicle — a flat rate, a named driver, a pickup keyed to your flight — for a total markedly beneath Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

A single reservation, one organized pickup, and a bill markedly under a surging Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

Arrivals into this district often have somewhere to be before the room matters — an office, a consulate appointment, a document to sign. A single stop en route can be written into the reservation: give the address at booking and those minutes go into the driver’s schedule.
What doesn’t work is raising it at the kerb. The car is scheduled around one route, so a stop named ahead is easy while the same request with bags already loaded is not.
One message reserves it. Email or WhatsApp us the flight number, the arrival date, how many are traveling, and the hotel name, and back comes confirmation of the car held under your name with the collection details. Pay the 50% deposit to fix the rate and a driver is tied to your flight. Whichever way you’re going — to or from MIA Airport and Loews Coral Gables Hotel — one quick exchange arranges the whole trip.
