Punta Cana
Car rental in Bávaro for travelers
Car rental in Bávaro is the single biggest unlock for your Dominican trip — the dense resort strip north of PUJ. From Bávaro you reach Los Corales, El Cortecito, Bavaro Beach in 10–40 minutes, plus PUJ airport in ~25 min. We deliver the vehicle to any hotel, villa or Airbnb in Bávaro (free, contactless, contract pre-signed on WhatsApp) with the tank full, insurance bundled and a child seat included on request. The smart pick for the region is a full-size SUV — Cadillac Escalade or Chevrolet Suburban — because Dominican secondary roads are bumpy and the extra ride height plus all-leather A/C cabin makes the drive to Macao, Higüey or Bayahibe a non-event for the whole family. We also handle one-way hires (PUJ ↔ La Romana cruise port, PUJ ↔ Santo Domingo), airport drop-off pickup so you keep the car until departures, and a chauffeur upgrade if anyone prefers not to drive on the right-hand side. Everything — quote, paperwork, hotel delivery time, insurance — runs on one WhatsApp thread.
