which ever way you choose,,,don't forget to think about the fact that you have between 25 and 30 pieces of luggage to haul around.

 

Personally, I splurge when I'm on vacation. I'd consider a limo bus. (One of those little shuttle busses that are decked out on the inside like a limo). Flat rate, room for ALL the luggage, couches to relax in, stocked with a few a your favorite beverages icon_biggrin.gif and a luxurious short tour prior to getting to the hotel.

 

Or you could get 3 or 4 cabs, or you could call the hotel and see if they ahve airport pick-up in their little vans.

Super Shuttle (the blue vans) will charge $9-11 per person. The taxi fare (per cab) is fixed at, I think, $18 or $20. So it's pretty much a push if you have two persons sharing a cab. The taxi will be cheaper if you can squeeze in a third person. One factor will be how much luggage you can fit in the trunk. We saw minivan and SUV taxis around Miami, they may be your best option.

In 2000 we had 4 adults in a cab to the Pier and it was a flat $14.00. Lookin' at probably $20.00 now.. that cab looked like a mule train with all the baggage and bungee cords, but it was still only $14.00. Believe the hotel to be closer to the airport than the Pier!! icon_smile.gif

Supershuttle is the only way for you to go other than hiring a bunch of cabs.
