- Is the $110 price per person or per vehicle?
- Per vehicle. $110 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 Kimpton Las Mercedes?
- 1 h 45 – 2 h in normal traffic. Kimpton Las Mercedes is at Calle Las Mercedes 155 in Santo Domingo’s historic centre. It uses our Santo Domingo city transfer zone from La Romana airport (LRM). Send the full hotel name and confirm the currently accessible street meeting point with reception. Airport information for SDQ describes a different journey; it is not the LRM route or fare. The car is yours alone, so there are no other pickups or hotel stops on the way.
- Where does the driver meet us at Kimpton Las Mercedes?
- Your driver meets you after baggage collection at La Romana airport with a name sign. For the return journey, we confirm the hotel's collection point and pickup time using your departure flight date and number. Send any reception instructions supplied by the hotel before you travel.
- Is this hotel close to La Romana airport?
- Not especially — it is 1 h 45 – 2 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 Kimpton Las Mercedes with no other pickups.
- Is this the same price as Bayahibe?
- No — Santo Domingo is $110 Standard and $180 VIP one-way per vehicle, while Bayahibe hotels are $40 Standard and $79 VIP. Santo Domingo is farther from the airport than Bayahibe, so the rate is $110 / $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.
