Taxi Hotels Punta Cana and Bavaro To Santo Domingo

“no taxi came. waited until an hour after the set time. After much trouble I managed to get in touch with Viator who announced that they could not contact the company. Had to book with the hotel instead”

“Horrible experience. We had a transfer from Serenade hotel in Punta cana to Santo Domingo. The driver made us extremely uncomfortable. He kept updating someone through phone calls of our whereabouts. Finally he said that he was going to transfer us to another car. WHY? We were already in Santo Domingo. We NEVER authorized this. We were sure they were minimum going to rob us. The driver was nervous. He kept speaking in code with the person he was updating. We were super nervous and shaking. He stopped at a gas station to transfer us. He didn’t even want to let my gf and I out of the car when we said we needed to use the restroom. We finally got out, took our bags out and told him we were not getting in the car with another stranger. Hotels wrote down the plates of the cars that pick you up. Why in the world he was trying to get us to get into another car with an untraced car and driver? Absolutely not. We paid him the money, so he would leave us alone. We were left in a vast station in the middle of nowhere without internet. We were so nervous that I got out of the car without my phone. We both cried. We feared for our lives. Do better! Do not ride with these people, especially if you are two women alone.”

“Going between Punta Cana and Santo Domingo takes a little planning as most arrangements are for the airports. But this transfer, hotel to hotel, worked out very well. Our PC to SD driver was on time, drove carefully, and managed the heavy traffic at the end quite well. (Having driven myself across the Dominican Republic I can say that it is not for the faint of heart. People drive fast and close, in or out of the cities, and do not signal. And Santo Domingo's traffic is as heavy as New York City's, but worse in that everyone acts like a NYC taxi driver!) Coming back there was a delay in pick-up, probably because we changed our time the day before, but the driver came when they said he would, and it was a good return to Punta Cana. The next time that we visit our friends in the capital city we would be happy to use this service again.”

“Driver was very accommodating. He was present when we arrived and waited for us to go through customs. For the return, again he was present and on time! Very nice experience.”

“Absolutely horrible. When we arrived in Punta Cana, there was no one in the airport with a sign with our name (as dvertised). Outside at the transportation stations, Oasis didn't even have our names listed on that board. They ened up getting us a ride in an old Honda with a crack windshield. The driver has to stop at 2 other terminals to find a man to give him money. Then he had to stop for gas before bringing us to the resort. Coming back was no better. I emailed the company twice to confirm, and they never replied. I had the resort call (due to language barriers), and they told them we should download the Watsapp app to forward them our voucher, after we had given them out Booking number. The car service arrived to pick up up 15 minutes late, and would not come to the front lobby of the resort where we had been dropped off. Thank goodness the staff at the resort were able to drive us down to the main entrance of the complex in a golfcart. DO NOT book this mode of transportation. The old saying "you get what you pay for" rang loud and clear!!!”
