Where Bahia Principe El Portillo sits and where we stop

Bahia Principe Grand El Portillo is a large all-inclusive resort on Playa El Portillo, just east of Las Terrenas. The transfer from Samaná El Catey International Airport (AZS) is a direct 30–40 minute private run — no shared shuttle, no stops at other hotels on the way. The resort has one main security gate; the guard takes your name from the booking and the car continues to the main lobby, which is a short drive inside the grounds. Because the flight is tracked, a late landing simply means the driver is already waiting when you clear customs, and the price you were quoted in writing is the price you pay at the end of the drive.

How the pickup works

  1. 1Send your flight number, date and party size on WhatsApp — we confirm the price in writing.
  2. 2We track the flight, so a delay or an early landing does not change anything.
  3. 3Your driver waits in arrivals with a name sign, just past customs.
  4. 4Direct 30–40 minute drive from AZS to Bahia Principe Grand El Portillo, with the drop-off point confirmed before the day.

Bigger groups and luggage

Up to six passengers ride in one Standard vehicle at $60. For 7–14 passengers we send a passenger van: +$20 on Standard, +$40 on VIP. Send the luggage count with the booking — golf bags, strollers and car seats are all fine, we just size the vehicle before the day instead of at the curb.
