Default Gran Ventana to Lifestyle Villas

Anyone know how much and how long for a taxi to drive to Lifestyle Villas at Playa Corfesi from Gran Ventana in Playa Dorada?

If you go with a taxi from within the Playa Dorada complex, you will be taken for a ride...pardon the pun!

Seriously, you are better off walking to the main entrance and getting a taxi outside. Having said that, do you speak any Spanish? If so, PM me and I can provide you with the # of a very reliable and reasonably priced taxi but you will have to meet him at the main gate too most likely as the Techni Taxi drivers can only enter the complex legally if they are dropping passengers off.

The ride should be about 20 mins roughly.

Thank you for the tip to walk to the gate! I'm going to have to look at this more seriously. We have friends staying at the other place and we either want to go there or meet them somewhere.

I speak very little Spanish (just the basics of drink and washroom)...

Do you know what the rules are about our friends entering the Playa Dorada complex? Perhaps they would want to look around for another trip??

Your friends can enter the Playa Dorada complex but not your resort unless they pay for a day/night pass.

You could meet up with them at the plaza within the complex at one of the bars or restaurants.
