From MIA by public transit (cheaper, slower)
Public transit from MIA to Miami Beach is possible but takes longer and requires at least one transfer. Expect roughly an hour door-to-door depending on connections and walking time.
A typical route uses the MIA Metrorail or the airport’s transit connections plus a Metrobus or local bus that serves Collins Avenue near the hotel. Check current schedules before you travel.
- Take Metrorail from MIA or the airport’s transit connector to a bus hub that serves Miami Beach (routes change; verify times).
- Metrobus Route 150/120 or Beach-bound buses connect the mainland to Collins Avenue — you will likely get off near 40th Street/Collins and walk a short distance to 3925 Collins Ave.
- The free Miami Beach Trolley (Collins Express or Middle Beach Loop) can be used locally once you reach Miami Beach to shorten walks along Collins Avenue.
| Step | Typical action |
|---|---|
| From MIA | Metrorail/transit connector to bus hub |
| Transfer to bus | Take a bus toward Miami Beach (confirm route and stop) |
| Final leg | Walk from nearest stop (approx. 5–15 minutes) or use the free trolley |
From Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport (FLL)
FLL is farther away than MIA; driving time to Cadillac Hotel & Beach Club commonly ranges from about 30 minutes to one hour depending on traffic on I-95 and the time of day. Rideshare or a rental car is the most direct option.
If you prefer not to rent a car, taxis and rideshares operate from FLL; fares will be higher than from MIA because FLL is further from Miami Beach.
- Typical driving route: I-95 S toward Miami, then exit to local roads to reach Collins Ave (destination 3925 Collins Ave).
- Allow extra time during weekday rush hours, event weekends, or holiday periods when I-95 can be congested.
- Private airport shuttles and pre-booked shared-ride services are available — check pickup locations at FLL when booking.
| Option | Typical time |
|---|---|
| Rideshare / Taxi | 30–60 minutes |
| Rental car | 30–60 minutes (plus return time) |
| Shuttle / Private transfer | Varies with stops and operator |
From FLL by public transit and transfer services
Public transit from FLL to Miami Beach involves Broward County Transit and Miami-Dade transit connections and is the slowest option. It typically requires multiple transfers and at least 90 minutes to two hours.
Some travelers choose a combination of Tri-Rail to downtown Miami and then a bus or rideshare to Miami Beach; check current schedules and transfer points before you go.
- Take Tri-Rail from FLL area to the Metrorail or central Miami transit hub, then transfer to a bus bound for Miami Beach (routes and transfer points vary).
- Because transfers and connections add time, consider splitting the trip: Tri-Rail to downtown Miami + rideshare for the last leg to the hotel.
- If you have a lot of luggage or are short on time, rideshare or a private transfer from FLL is usually worth the extra cost.
| Why choose public transit? | When it makes sense |
|---|---|
| Lower cost | If you’re traveling light and have extra time |
| Environmental choice | If you prefer rail/bus travel over road |
| Complexity | Multiple transfers and schedules may be required |
