Uvero Alto is the northernmost resort area on this coast, past Macao: quieter beaches and large all-inclusive resorts such as Breathless Punta Cana and Excellence Punta Cana.
When you book, choose your exact resort, hotel or rental: the price and pickup time come from where you stay, not from the area name. Going somewhere else? Tell us where; some trips need a custom quote.
Uvero Alto is the northernmost resort zone of the Punta Cana coast, about 30 km beyond Bávaro. Many of its resorts carry “Punta Cana” in their names, but the drive is roughly twice as long as to Bávaro. In return the beaches are quieter, with open Atlantic water and bigger waves. Outside the resorts there are few restaurants or shops, so most guests stay on property, and trips to Bávaro or to excursions start earlier.

Travelling to Uvero Alto
- Pickup in this area
- The route runs north on the Boulevard Turístico del Este past Bávaro, then on the Miches–Punta Cana highway and the Carretera Uvero Alto. The highway beyond Bávaro opened in 2015 and gave an alternative to the older inland route through Higüey.
- Returning to the airport
- Because of the distance, your return pickup is earlier than from Bávaro: currently about 4 hours before your flight. Your booking shows the exact time once you add your departure flight.
- Places in this area
- The resorts are spread out along the Carretera Uvero Alto, around Uvero Alto and El Carmen. Names such as Breathless Punta Cana or Excellence Punta Cana refer to the wider region, not to the airport area. Macao and its public beach are on the way, between Bávaro and Uvero Alto.

Questions travellers ask
How far is Uvero Alto from Punta Cana Airport?
About 40 minutes (41 km) to Uvero Alto village without traffic, measured on OpenStreetMap. Resorts at the far end of the zone take a little longer.
Why does my “Punta Cana” resort take 40 minutes or more?
Punta Cana is used as a name for the whole coast. Uvero Alto resorts are about 30 km north of Bávaro, at the end of the resort corridor, so the transfer is longer than to Bávaro or Cap Cana.
Are there restaurants near Uvero Alto resorts?
Only a few. Dining is mostly inside the resorts; for town restaurants and shopping, guests usually go to Bávaro, about half an hour or more by road.
When will I be picked up for my flight home?
Currently about 4 hours before departure for Uvero Alto hotels. You see the exact pickup time before you book, once you add your flight.
