Quick answer
A private transfer from Cancun Airport to the Hotel Zone costs $45 USD flat for 1 to 8 passengers and takes about 25 minutes. Resorts near Punta Nizuc and the southern lagoon side run closer to 30 minutes. Downtown Cancun is the same $45 flat rate.
The shared-shuttle math on this route
This is the route where a shared shuttle costs you the most time for the least saving. A shared van to the Hotel Zone takes 60-90 minutes versus about 25 minutes private, because it drops 5-8 other groups at their resorts before yours. After a long flight, that is an hour of your first day spent riding past your own hotel.
Every resort in the Zona Hotelera
The Hotel Zone is a single 25 km boulevard, so we cover all of it at the same flat rate — from the Km 4 marina end through Punta Cancun and down to Punta Nizuc. Grand Fiesta Americana Coral Beach, Le Blanc, Live Aqua, Hyatt Ziva, Secrets The Vine, RIU, Hard Rock and the rest are all the same $45.
Downtown Cancun (Cancún Centro) is also $45 flat, so if you are staying in the city rather than on the strip the price does not change.

Included: private vehicle for your group only, meet-and-greet at arrivals, flight monitoring, luggage space, bottled water, bilingual driver and drop-off at your resort entrance.
