Default La Romana to Secrets Excellence -- Helicopter?

I need to get from La Romana to Secrets Excellence in the Punta Cana area. I've heard mention of helicopters that can be chartered, and was thinking about doing that. Does anyone have any idea how long it would take for this flight? Are you aware of any companies that offer this service? I found the Coturisca website, but I was wondering if there were any other options...

Thanks

Helidosa has 4 heliports, Bavaro (Punta Cana), Playa Dorado, Santo Domingo and ??? There web site is www.helidosa.com. They have 8 helicoptors, ranging from the Bell Long Ranger through to the Robinson R44. I chartered one from Punta Cana to Puerto Plata last month, great ride, pilot was excellent good trip overall.

Regards

John

I have heard that Helidosa has been going through some managerial problems. They fired their mechanics a pilot and a bunch of other workers I heard that the company is an accident waiting to happen. Donšt use this company.
