Amstar, a major company that offers shared transfers, charges USD 90 for a one-way shared shuttle for two guests; this is even more expensive than booking a private shuttle from the Punta Cana Airport with a smaller company.
Buses, Motorbikes, and Rental Cars
If you're traveling light, consider taking a local bus (gua gua) to the resort. Unfortunately, there is no space for suitcases at the airport.
Bus maps are available at stands around the airport; please note that there is no direct bus from the Punta Cana Airport to the Iberostar Selection Hacienda Dominicus. Taking a bus to the Iberostar Selection Hacienda Dominicus would require a detour to Higuey, making the total trip close to 3 hours long.
Cars are also available for rental at the airport by all major car rental companies. However, it is not recommended to rent a car because driving can be chaotic, especially in the cities. Also, car rentals are incredibly pricey and jacked up with hidden fees at the airport.
Yet, if you plan an extended stay in Punta Cana and have experience driving with little rule-following, it is another consideration.
Motorcycle taxis called motoconchos are popular in the Dominican Republic; unfortunately, there is no way to get a Motorcycle Taxi at the airport.
Uber in Punta Cana
Uber is also available in Punta Cana. You should not call an Uber from the airport or the resort. Due to local disagreements, Uber is not welcome by taxi drivers. You would need to stay at the Iberostar Selection Hacienda Dominicus gate and wait for a golf cart for the remainder of the ride.
If you call an Uber in an area with a taxi stand or high traffic, an argument can break out between the Uber and taxi drivers. Thus, using Uber is neither a safe nor the most enjoyable choice in Punta Cana.
