Where The Bannister sits and where we stop

The Bannister Hotel & Yacht Club is a marina hotel at Puerto Bahía, around km 5 of the Sánchez–Samaná road. The transfer from Samaná El Catey International Airport (AZS) is a direct 45–60 minute private run — no shared shuttle, no stops at other hotels on the way. Puerto Bahía is a gated marina community, so the car is registered at the community gate before it continues down to the hotel and the yacht club. 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 45–60 minute drive from AZS to The Bannister Hotel & Yacht Club, with the drop-off point confirmed before the day.

Bigger groups and luggage

Up to six passengers ride in one Standard vehicle at $55. 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.
