First off, welcome!
Club Med is actually THE closest hotel to the airport. They just finished opening up a new section and invested big bucks in improvements. I personally haven't been back in since they finished but it must be pretty impressive. Regarding a taxi, I would recommend you ask them directly if they can coordinate that for you and how much it would cost. They have Rios Tours that have permanently based units there and it would be less stressful to know that they'll be waiting for you than to start haggling with the public taxis.
As to what you should or should not see, all depends on what you're looking for. 5 minutes away you've got Puntacana Ranch where you can go horseback riding on the beach and I can promise you you'll have a great time (although I am a bit biased since I used to be the Manager, I can promise you that it's a cut above the rest in the area). In Club Med itself you've got a lot of daily activities to chose from, so like I said, all depends on what you're looking for.
