Check hotel transfer details

The hotel-linked shop publishes private nonstop round-trip MBJ transfers at US$99 per person, minimum 2 people; solo travelers pay US$198. This is a published round-trip fare, not a live quote or a per-vehicle price. No vehicle capacity was verified. Confirm current pricing and whether your booking qualifies for an included ride before paying.

The FAQ requires 5 nights for arrivals April 4–October 29, or 6 nights for other arrival dates. Send flight details to sprreservations@sunsetresortsjm.com at least 60 days before arrival; missing that deadline means paid transport. A separate RELAX26 promotion lists new website bookings March 20–October 15, 2026, travel through January 2, 2028 and a 5-night minimum, with Club MoBay VIP arrival and round-trip transfers subject to the same 60-day deadline. It excludes existing or cancelled-and-rebooked reservations and cannot combine with other offers. Confirm which minimum applies to your exact rate and arrival date rather than assuming the promotion replaces the FAQ. Club MoBay is airport assistance, separate from the ground ride. Ask whether the included vehicle is shared or private, and confirm passengers, luggage, meeting point and return pickup.
