Saona Island tour from your hotel · Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village
Full-day Saona Island excursion with hotel pickup — catamaran, speedboat, natural pool and beach lunch. Tailored for Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village guests staying in Punta Cana Village (boutique) — pickup organised at your lobby, paid in cash or card on arrival. Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village sits on the Punta Cana Village coast — a 5-star Relais & Châteaux property about 8 min from PUJ and 15 min from Cap Cana Marina, the marina we use for most boat departures. Boutique Marriott in Punta Cana Village — closest non-resort hotel to PUJ airport, popular with business travellers and crews; B&B rather than all-inclusive.

What's included
Hotel pickup, transfer to Bayahibe, catamaran cruise with open bar (the catamaran is the fun part — music, dancing), speedboat back via the famous natural pool with starfish, buffet lunch on Saona beach. From Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village specifically, the timing works because we already know the Punta Cana Village (boutique) lobby pattern and the 15-minute hop to Cap Cana Marina — that's the corridor every Saona day-trip on this page uses. Boutique Marriott in Punta Cana Village — closest non-resort hotel to PUJ airport, popular with business travellers and crews; B&B rather than all-inclusive.
Group vs private
Group tour is the lively classic. Private Saona by speedboat is the calm version — no crowds, your own schedule, ideal for couples and families with small children. For a Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village stay, the day's anchor is the 8-minute window between PUJ and the Punta Cana Village coast. We schedule each Saona day-trip around that buffer so couples and families staying in this 5-star Relais & Châteaux property aren't waiting at the gate for someone else's pickup.
Booking from Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village
When Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village guests book a Saona day-trip with us, the day is built around two fixed timings: the 15-minute hop to Cap Cana Marina and the 8-minute window to PUJ. Because Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village is a 5-star Relais & Châteaux property, we pre-brief the guide on the lobby layout, the resort's wristband policy, and where to wait so security never asks twice. That's the difference between a smooth pickup and 20 lost minutes at the gate.
Send your dates, group size and room number on WhatsApp
Send your dates, group size and room number on WhatsApp. We confirm pickup time at the hotel lobby, the meeting guide's name, and the cash/card price — usually within minutes, 7am–11pm. Pickup is from the Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village main lobby. We send a confirmation message with the driver's name and plate the evening before. Expect roughly 8 min between PUJ airport and the hotel. We're a Dominican team based in Bávaro. No call centre, no resort kick-back. Your concierge resells the same trips at +30–50% — we put you in touch with the small operators directly.
