How long is the transfer from SJD airport to Costa Palmas?

50 to 60 minutes over roughly 60 km on the East Cape highway through La Ribera. The rate is fixed and confirmed at booking — no meter, no airport-curb negotiation.

Is there a shared shuttle or Uber to Costa Palmas?

No. No shared-shuttle route serves the East Cape, and ride-hailing does not operate anywhere in Baja California Sur. Pre-booked private transportation is how guests reach the Four Seasons, Amanvari, and the marina — and how they get back to SJD.

Do you drop off at the Four Seasons and Amanvari directly?

Yes — porte-cochere drop-offs at both resorts, plus marina slips and residence gates inside the development. Send your reservation name at booking and our drivers handle the gate.

Can we stop for groceries or wine on the way?

Yes — the practical stop is in San Jose del Cabo before the highway turns east. Supermarkets and La Europea load best on the way in; store selection near La Ribera is limited.

Can you handle golf bags and sports gear?

Yes — Suburbans and Sprinters carry golf bags, paddle boards, and fishing gear with the group in one vehicle. Tell us the count at booking and we assign the right unit.

How much does a private transfer to Costa Palmas cost?

Costa Palmas rides on our East Cape rate band — a fixed price per vehicle, not per person, shown at booking before you pay. One rate covers the whole group, luggage included.

Private Airport Transfer · SJD → Costa Palmas

Your Shuttle from Los Cabos Airport to Costa Palmas

Costa Palmas is the East Cape's master-planned answer to the Corridor: two miles of swimmable Sea of Cortez beachfront anchored by the Four Seasons Resort, the Amanvari by Aman, a Robert Trent Jones II golf course, and a full-service marina that takes yachts up to 250 feet. The crowd it draws books residences and beach club memberships, not day passes — and nearly all of it lands at Los Cabos International Airport (SJD) with no idea that the last hour of the trip works differently out here.

The drive from SJD

The drive is 50 to 60 minutes and roughly 60 km northeast on the East Cape highway — desert and palm oasis rather than resort corridor, with the pavement running through La Ribera before the development gates. What travelers discover late is that no shared shuttle operates this route: the East Cape has no shuttle industry, ride-hailing does not exist anywhere in Baja Sur, and airport taxis price this run as a one-off negotiation. The pre-booked private transfer is not the premium option here — it is the only door-to-door option that exists, which is why every arrival plan for Costa Palmas should start with it locked in before the flight boards.

What the transfer includes

We run this route weekly: porte-cochere drop-offs at the Four Seasons and Amanvari, marina slips and residence gates inside the development, golf bags and paddle boards traveling with the group in Suburbans and Sprinters. Flight tracking moves the pickup automatically when your arrival slips, and the round-trip structure guarantees the ride back from a coastline where you cannot summon one. Grocery and La Europea stops load in San Jose del Cabo before the highway turns east — selection near La Ribera is limited, so the smart cart fills on the way in.
