STI VIP · Puerto Plata / Playa Dorada

A private arrival in Puerto Plata / Playa Dorada

Puerto Plata covers more than one resort entrance. Costa Dorada, the city and the Maimón side should be identified by the property on your reservation. A direct VIP transfer takes your group from the STI meeting point to the agreed north-coast address without a shared hotel circuit.

A name-sign welcome

Flight tracking and a personal meeting at STI. Follow your confirmed instructions after collecting your bags.

Share the full destination address in Puerto Plata / Playa Dorada, including a villa reference or map pin when relevant. A zone name alone may cover several neighborhoods. We agree the final meeting and drop-off details in your confirmation rather than assuming access to a hotel gate or individual villa.

The return, arranged

Book both journeys together. Confirm your hotel pickup time and return flight before travel.
