BlueHerons Posted August 13, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2013 1. Cab 2. Car Rental 3. Private Shuttle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted August 13, 2013 #3 Share Posted August 13, 2013 1. Cab Most expensive- about $80 2. Car Rental OK 3. Private Shuttle Common solution A little reading down the board would reveal many recommendations for shuttles, including SAS, QLS and a couple others.

kirasmom Posted August 13, 2013 Author #5 Share Posted August 13, 2013 SAS cannot help us, they cannot bring us to our hotel in Miami and since we come in after 6PM they won't come get us. Off to try another solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip, the woman at the front desk told me shuttle runs 24 hours every 30 mins. Let me check rates for home wood. Thanks.

I just pulled up your date on 8/18 and I got AAA rates of $75 for the Hilton Marina which has no airport shuttle, but it's in a great area and has a Water Taxi stop. The Hampton Inn Airport South for $84, Homewood suites for $98 and the Hilton Garden Inn for $89. I think the Hilton Marina would be a no brainer for me. A taxi from the airport will cost you about $15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
