This is especially useful for families, couples, wedding guests, adults-only travelers staying at Ocean El Faro El Beso, and groups arriving with checked luggage.

With Punta Cana Transfer, the route is private from the airport to the hotel. Your driver follows your flight details, confirms the arrival service and takes you directly to the resort lobby or the transportation area assigned by the hotel.
