A driver holds a clean cardboard sign with your name; palms lean over the access road as the sea seems to tug at the horizon. The ride from Punta Cana International Airport into the resort corridor is short but revealing: low-rise hotels, coconut palms, and pockets of limestone scrub that hint at the island’s coral foundation.
