Saona Island tour from your hotel · Majestic Elegance Punta Cana
Full-day Saona Island excursion with hotel pickup — catamaran, speedboat, natural pool and beach lunch. Tailored for Majestic Elegance Punta Cana guests staying in Bávaro — pickup organised at your lobby, paid in cash or card on arrival. Majestic Elegance Punta Cana sits on the Bávaro coast — a adults-only luxury resort about 25 min from PUJ and 12 min from Cabeza de Toro, the marina we use for most boat departures. Large Bávaro all-inclusive with separate Elegance and Colonial wings — adults-only Elegance Club is the strongest fit for couples on this page.

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.
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.
Booking from Majestic Elegance Punta Cana
When Majestic Elegance Punta Cana guests book a Saona day-trip with us, the day is built around two fixed timings: the 12-minute hop to Cabeza de Toro and the 25-minute window to PUJ. Because Majestic Elegance Punta Cana is a adults-only luxury resort, 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 Majestic Elegance Punta Cana main lobby. We send a confirmation message with the driver's name and plate the evening before. Expect roughly 25 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.

FAQ
Common questions
Do you pick up at Majestic Elegance Punta Cana?+
Yes — drivers wait at the Majestic Elegance Punta Cana main lobby. PUJ airport is about 25 min away, which helps us time pickups precisely.
Which marina do boats leave from for Majestic Elegance Punta Cana guests?+
Cabeza de Toro — about 12 min from the Majestic Elegance Punta Cana lobby. We always pick the marina that saves drive time over chasing a slightly cheaper boat further away.
How long is the boat ride to Saona?+
About 45 min by catamaran going, 30 min by speedboat returning via the natural pool. Total trip 9–10 h door-to-door.
Is Saona good for small children?+
Yes — shallow turquoise water and soft sand. We recommend the private speedboat option for kids under 4.
Why not just book at the hotel excursion desk?+
Resort desks resell the same trips with a 30–50% markup and usually push larger group operators. We connect you directly to the small Dominican operators we use for our own family.
Can I pay in cash on the day?+
Yes — USD or DOP, in cash, on pickup. Card and bank transfer also work. No deposit needed for most options.
What languages do guides speak?+
Group tours are bilingual EN/ES. German, French, Italian, Russian and Portuguese guides available on request for private trips.
Can it be private, just for our group?+
Yes — almost everything on this page has a private upgrade (own boat, own buggy, own driver). Ask us on WhatsApp.
