Is the $115 price per person or per vehicle?

Per vehicle. $115 Standard covers 1–6 passengers with luggage in one private car, taxes and tolls included — the same figure whether you are two people or six. VIP is $180 for the same group in a luxury SUV or executive van. Groups of 7–14 move to a passenger van: +$20 on Standard, +$40 on VIP.

How long is the drive from LRM to Meliá Punta Cana Beach?

1 h 35 – 1 h 55 in normal traffic. One hour thirty-five to one hour fifty-five east, ending at the adults-only Meliá inside the Paradisus complex area. The car is yours alone, so there are no other pickups or hotel stops on the way.

Where does the driver meet us at Meliá Punta Cana Beach?

In the LRM arrivals hall with a name sign, then east to the Meliá cluster in Bávaro, stopping at the adults-only Meliá Punta Cana Beach lobby rather than a Paradisus desk.

Is this hotel close to La Romana airport?

Not especially — it is 1 h 35 – 1 h 55 from LRM, out along the eastern coast rather than in the La Romana and Bayahibe cluster. The run is perfectly comfortable in a private car, but it is a long drive, so we dispatch earlier, carry water and build in a comfort stop if you want one. Your vehicle goes straight to Meliá Punta Cana Beach with no other pickups.

Is this the same price as Bayahibe?

No — Bávaro is $115 Standard and $180 VIP one-way per vehicle, while Bayahibe hotels are $40 Standard and $79 VIP. Bávaro is farther from the airport than Bayahibe, so the rate is $115 / $180, not $40 / $79. If your booking is actually at a Bayahibe resort, tell us the property name on WhatsApp and we quote the Bayahibe rate instead.

Where Meliá Punta Cana Beach sits and where we stop

Meliá Punta Cana Beach is the adults-only resort in the Meliá group's Bávaro cluster, next to the Paradisus properties and reached through the same stretch of resort road. Adults-only matters for the transfer in one practical way: reception will check ID for every guest, and the resort will not take a booking held under a different property in the cluster, so we put the exact hotel name on the job. From La Romana airport the drive is one hour thirty-five to one hour fifty-five. Guests here often arrive on late flights; the car is booked at a fixed price and waits however long customs takes, which is the difference between a private transfer and a shuttle that leaves when it is full.

How the pickup works

1Send your flight number, date and party size on WhatsApp — we confirm the price in writing.
2We track the flight, so a delay or an early landing does not change anything.
3Your driver waits in the LRM arrivals hall with a name sign, just past customs.
4Direct 1 h 35 – 1 h 55 drive east to the Meliá Punta Cana Beach adults-only reception in Bávaro.

Bigger groups and luggage

Up to six passengers ride in one Standard vehicle at $115. For 7–14 passengers we send a passenger van: +$20 on Standard, +$40 on VIP. Send the luggage count with the booking — golf bags, strollers and car seats are all fine, we just size the vehicle before the day instead of at the curb.
