Punta Cana → Bávaro: key facts

Bávaro from Punta Cana Airport (PUJ) by private transfer: €30 per car (1–3 people) or €45 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 16 km via RD-3, roughly 20 min when traffic is light and 20–30 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits outside the arrivals exit of the terminal your airline uses (Terminal A or Terminal B), after immigration, baggage claim and customs, holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

Bávaro is the largest resort area on the east coast, with hotels lining Playa Bávaro and El Cortecito beach and a small town centre at Los Corales. From the airport the route heads north on the Boulevard Turístico del Este, the four-lane road that links Punta Cana, Bávaro and Uvero Alto, then turns towards the coast through the Bávaro roundabouts. Traffic is heavier at hotel shift changes in the morning and evening, and around the shopping centres near the Friusa junction.

Large all-inclusive resorts stand side by side along Playa Bávaro, each with its own gated driveway from the access roads behind the beach. Los Corales and El Cortecito are the walkable part of Bávaro, with small hotels, apartments, restaurants and the beach path. Palma Real Shopping Village and several malls are on the main avenues, and Friusa inland is the local commercial district where the Bávaro bus terminal stands. Cabeza de Toro lies a short way south and Arena Gorda continues to the north.

Public transport: The airport's official transportation page lists only car rental desks in Terminals A and B and no scheduled bus or shuttle line to Bávaro; local minibuses (guaguas) run on the main roads.
