Puerto Plata Airport to Hotel Transfer: Air-Conditioned Van

Step off the plane and into a private ride waiting just for you, no waits or stops.

A private transfer from Puerto Plata airport to hotels west of town takes about 40 minutes and includes pickup at the terminal exit and drop-off at your hotel lobby. Choose between a 4, 6, 8, or 14-passenger van depending on your group size, and book one-way or round-trip. Taxes, parking and tolls are included in the price.

The experience

The van picks you up as you exit the terminal building and takes you west along the north coast, crossing through Puerto Plata city to reach your hotel just outside town. All vans have air conditioning for a comfortable ride. The operator has been running this route since 1994 and holds a 25-year track record for reliability, plus seven consecutive Certificates of Excellence.

You choose the van size that fits your group: 4, 6, 8, or 14 passengers. Book one-way if you're only arriving, or round-trip if you need the return journey as well. Specialized infant seats are available if you're traveling with small children, and service animals are welcome. Taxes, parking charges and tolls are all included in your fare, so there are no hidden costs at the end of the ride.
