We are looking for the best way to get from Holiday in biscayne bay to the POM we will have a group of about 20 people & would like to stay together if possible

If the hotel doen't offer free shuttle service first ask them if you can work out a deal if the van driver would take you in groups of 10. If all else fails just take cabs it's a 3 minute cab ride.

Do you mean Holiday Inn Port of Miami?

 

No downtown hotels offer a free shuttle service to the POM. If any did, that's all they would be doing all weekend is shuttling. Nope.

 

Agree that several cabs would be the best option and least expensive. Shuttle bus service will charge per person - this will quickly add up for 20 people. You can probably get 4 people plus luggage into one cab - you'll need 5 or 6 and that's no big deal. Cabs are plentiful to take you there; they usually line up out front, ready to take passengers to the pier. Each cab will cost you no more than say, $10 or $12.

 

My advice is to meet up on the sidewalk, or just inside the building after you give your luggage to the porters. You will all be split up anyway as they check in passengers by Deck number (or if any of you get Priority Check-in).

 

Have a good cruise.

Agree, the Holiday Inn port of Miami does not have a shuttle but a cab will be the least expensive way to get to the ship. You can fit 3-4 people in a regular cab (plus your luggage) and more will fit if you get a van taxi. You'll have to go separately but can meet up where the cab lets you off and the porters take your luggage. Cab is about $10.

Let the concierge or bellman at the hotel know what time you'd like a group of 3 cabs ready for the port. There will be many cabs there already if on a weekend, transporting cruisers back and forth to the ships. But you might want to avoid the biggest crowd by either leaving the hotel at 10 and waiting at the port until you are allowed to check in or...wait until noon when the rush passes and have a leisurely morning at the hotel until then. You'll all be together at the pier as you'll need to hand over your luggage outside the terminal.

$12 or so will be the cost for 4 people in a cab. Cheaper than any shuttles.

Happy cruising.

For 20 people you will need 5-6 cabs, depending upon luggage.

That's what I said too. :D

Yes I agree. I was thinking 5 , typed 3. :o Yes, lots depends on luggage...and if there are any van cabs available.

Cabs are about the only option unless you know of a private van or car service that you can hire but would be more expensive than using multiple cabs.

I just read your question again and I am not sure if you mean the Holiday Inn??? If it is the hotel at the port of Miami it is practically across the street from the pier.

Or do you mean you are staying for your holiday at a hotel in Biscayne Bay?

Thanks for all the reply's yes it is the holiday inn close to the port across from bayside marketplace
