Quick answer: La Romana International Airport (LRM) is the closest airport to Viva Dominicus Beach by Wyndham. Plan on about 20–30 minutes by road from LRM or 50–70 minutes from Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) to the Beach property area. Before arranging the ride, ask your booking provider to confirm which reception will handle your check-in. Viva Dominicus Beach and Viva Dominicus Palace are adjacent properties in Dominicus, and the name on an earlier voucher may differ from the instructions for your stay.

Where is Viva Dominicus Beach by Wyndham?
Viva Dominicus Beach is on the Dominicus coast in the Bayahibe area. Viva's fact sheet gives the Beach property address as Avenida Laguna at Los Corales, Dominicus, Bayahibe. The regional name “La Romana” appears in hotel listings. Use the complete hotel name and the latest arrival instructions to turn that regional label into a usable driver destination.
Viva Dominicus Palace is next door. Playa Dominicus is the name of the wider beach lined with several resorts. If a travel agent forwards a map pin labeled only “Viva” or “Dominicus Beach,” match it against the current voucher before sharing it with your driver. The Bayahibe and Dominicus area guide explains how the village and resort strip fit together.

Best airport for Viva Dominicus Beach by Wyndham
Choose LRM if the schedule works for your trip and you want the shortest road journey. PUJ is worth comparing if it offers a better flight schedule for your group. SDQ can make sense when you are combining a stay in Santo Domingo with the coast or the flight works better for your dates. Use the airport code printed on your ticket for both the inbound and outbound bookings.

From LRM you approach the Bayahibe area from the La Romana side. From PUJ the main route heads west on the Coral highway before turning toward Bayahibe and Dominicus.

Keep the full property name handy so you can verify the final stop with the driver when you meet.

Arrival, lobby and gate access
Viva’s Beach resort page currently leads to its neighboring Palace property after the June 2026 fire at Beach. If you already have a reservation, ask the company that issued it for written arrival instructions for your dates. Use the latest confirmation if it differs from your original voucher.
- Ask the resort or the travel company that issued your voucher to confirm the property where you will sleep, where you check in and which point your vehicle should use on arrival. If any of those differ, ask for each address or pin in writing.
- Send your driver the latest full property name and drop-off instructions. If two rooms on the same trip have different hotel names, send both and label who is going where.
- If you have a wheelchair, limited walking range or several bags, ask the resort where the vehicle can unload and how far it is from there to reception. Give your transfer provider the same information.
Reconfirm the pickup point for the return when you arrive. Guest access, vehicle access and the staffed desk can change, and the hotel can give you instructions for your dates.
Private transfer options
For a flight followed by one confirmed hotel stop, pre-book a private airport transfer and give the driver the latest check-in details. For a trip with several stops or a day of sightseeing, request a private driver or hourly service with each address and the time you need at each stop.
Choose the option that matches how you want to travel after arrival.
Recommended
Pre-booked private transfer
Arrange a direct ride to the hotel reception confirmed for your stay.
- Share the flight number, party size and current reception location
- For a round trip, list the arrival and departure flights separately
- Confirm the return pickup point, luggage space and any child seats
Self-drive
Rental car
Self-drive can suit a trip with several independent outings in Bayahibe or La Romana.
- Confirm where to park and unload at the hotel assigned to you
- Check tolls, insurance and the vehicle’s luggage capacity
- Allow time for vehicle collection and return at the airport
Taxi and shared transport
We recommend avoiding taxi or shared transport when you need a confirmed meeting point, several hotel stops, a child seat, space for special equipment or an agreed plan for a group. If your package already includes a shared ride, check the exact drop-off, baggage arrangements and return details.
Which vehicle fits your party and luggage?
Choose from the passenger count and the luggage volume. Capacity depends on luggage, child seats and special equipment, so we confirm the best fit with your exact quote.
| Class | Passengers | Typically suits |
|---|---|---|
| Mid Size SUV | Up to 2 | Couples and solo travellers with standard luggage |
| Full Size Suburban | Up to 4 | Small families and travellers wanting more luggage room |
| Premium Van | Up to 5 | Families who want space rather than a full-size van |
| H-350 Van | Up to 11 | Larger families and small groups travelling together |
| Large Sprinter Van | Up to 15 | Groups with substantial luggage or sports equipment |
| Bus | Up to 58 | Weddings, corporate arrivals and tour groups |
Planning for this hotel and your party
If grandparents are arriving at LRM and the rest of the family is coming through PUJ, quote the two arrivals separately and give both drivers the same current reception instructions. If the hotel confirms different receptions, assign each room group its own stop. Send the child's age, height and weight for each requested seat, and count the stroller with your luggage. If your party is sharing a vehicle from one airport, list both flight numbers and agree on what to do if the arrivals move apart.

Transportation from the hotel to nearby attractions
- Playa Dominicus. Use the public beach's access point if that is where you are meeting someone. Exchange a pin in advance, especially if they are staying at Iberostar Selection Hacienda Dominicus or another resort on the same shore.
- Bayahibe village and Saona Island. Many Saona boats leave from the village waterfront. Ask your boat operator for the exact pier and reporting time, then share them with the driver and arrange the return meeting. See the Saona departure guide
- La Romana or Casa de Campo. For several stops, provide the specific destinations, preferred order and how long you need at each. If visiting a private venue, confirm its arrival instructions before assigning the driver a pickup time.


Return transfer to the airport
Give the transfer team the current pickup point, the outbound airport code, the departure time and the airline's recommended terminal reporting time. Work backward from that reporting time, allowing for the road journey and loading. If the resort moves your room or changes where you check out, confirm the vehicle meeting point again and tell the transfer team before departure day.
What to send for an exact quote

- Latest hotel name, check-in drop-off and return meeting point
- Number of adults and children, with age, height and weight for each requested child seat
- Bag count, stroller, mobility aids and any sports equipment
