Intro

Welcome to The Westin Punta Cana Resort & Club — an oasis of relaxation nestled within the exclusive Puntacana Resort & Club complex. Known for its world-class golf courses, beach access, and eco-luxury design, it’s one of the most conveniently located resorts near the airport.

To make your arrival as smooth as your stay, Miro Travel offers private, fast, and authorized transfers from Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) directly to The Westin. In just 15–20 minutes, you’ll be stepping into paradise.

Quick Facts

  • 📍 Location: Puntacana Resort & Club, only minutes from PUJ
  • 🕒 Distance: ~8 km / 5 miles
  • 🚗 Travel Time: 15–20 minutes
  • 💰 Private Transfer Cost: $25–$35 USD per vehicle
  • 🧳 Vehicle Type: Private, air-conditioned, professional driver

Transfer Options & Comparison

1) Private Transfer (Recommended)

Given how close The Westin is to the airport, a private transfer is the best choice. Skip long waits for shared shuttles or unreliable taxis — your Miro Travel driver will meet you at the terminal exit and take you directly to the resort gates.

2) Shared Shuttle

Shared shuttles may be cheaper ($10–$15 per person) but unnecessary for such a short route. You might wait longer than you travel!

3) Airport Taxi

While available, taxis are often unregulated and may charge the same or higher than a private transfer without guaranteed access into Puntacana Resort & Club.

4) Uber or Ride-Share

Uber is not officially allowed to operate airport pickups in Punta Cana. Due to private community restrictions, they may also be denied access to the Westin property.

Why Book with Miro Travel

Miro Travel provides authorized, professional transportation that ensures quick and seamless access into Puntacana Resort & Club. With secure entry credentials, our drivers bypass delays at the security gate and get you directly to The Westin’s main entrance.

  • Ask your driver for directions to the resort’s beach club and golf areas.
  • Book round-trip transfers for convenience and better rates.
