- Is the $320 price per person or per vehicle?
- Per vehicle. $320 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 $430 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 Chalet Tropical?
- 4 – 4.5 h in normal traffic. Chalet Tropical is at Calle Chalet Tropical, Las Galeras, Samaná. Our Samaná / Las Terrenas / Las Galeras transfer zone applies from La Romana International Airport (LRM). Specify your chalet, bungalow or villa and the reception instructions. Confirm the vehicle meeting point on Calle Chalet Tropical; the accommodation arrival point should not be inferred from a restaurant reservation. The car is yours alone, so there are no other pickups or hotel stops on the way.
- Where does the driver meet us at Chalet Tropical?
- Your driver meets you after baggage collection at LRM with a name sign. For the return journey, send the departure flight date and number; we confirm the hotel collection point and pickup time before travel.
- Is this hotel close to La Romana airport?
- Not especially — it is 4 – 4.5 h 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 Chalet Tropical with no other pickups.
- Is this the same price as Bayahibe?
- No — Las Terrenas is $320 Standard and $430 VIP one-way per vehicle, while Bayahibe hotels are $40 Standard and $79 VIP. Las Terrenas is farther from the airport than Bayahibe, so the rate is $320 / $430, 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.
