Long wait at the airport!!!

We had used Happy Shuttle with a good experience so booked them again when returned to Cancun last Feb. we were extremely disappointed this time. We waited for more than an hour in the heat to be taken to our hotel. They blamed it on an accident delaying our shuttle yet several (5 v) groups who arrived after us boarded shuttles before us. I spoke with the supervisor and even reached out to the office. They said drivers are assigned when we check in with the shuttle staff and it’s our driver who was delayed. No one could explain why they could not change our driver. Shuttle staff at the airport said it was an operational policy out of their control. Poor experience. Should not have happened snd no one affiliated wit Happy Shuttle was willing to do munching to compensate me for the poor experience.

If I could give zero stars I would

If I could give zero stars I would. They ripped me off on my travel to the airport. The pick up guy informed me the whole time then tried to charge me double to still take me to airport. I paid the company before hand and had to pay for a taxi on top of it

Professional and prompt service

Professional and prompt service. Respectful and safe drivers. Absolutely no issues finding them at the airport if you know what you're looking for. They also confirmed return pick up time in advance. Would use their service again.

I have used Happy Shuttle on several occasions and found their service to be excellent. Notes: Cancun airport is (on many occasions) chaotic. You may feel intimidated by it. Push on and find the Happy Shuttle representatives. They have to contact your driver and call the vehicle forward ~ this takes a minute ~ but with hundreds of passengers arriving the private transportation providers must wait their turn. I have even had to make changes and found Happy Shuttle to be helpful and responsive. My multiple experiences have been great and I’ll soon book again.

We have used their shuttle twice

We have used their shuttle twice. The first roundtrip to Playa del Carman-no problems, on time both ways. 2nd time went from airport to Playa del Carmen, Playa del Carmen to about 1.5 south, picked up there on final departure to the airport. Never had a problem. Drivers were kind and friendly. We are going back in Oct and we will be using them again.

Will use Happy Shuttle again

Cancun ground transpo is super busy, but Happy Shuttle agents were easy to find. Had to wait 10 minutes at airport for our ride, but that's nothing to complain about. Our driver arrived a few minutes early at the resort for our return trip from Playa del Carmen. Coming and going was smooth and quick. Both drivers were friendly and we enjoyed both rides.

A so so experience.

Just thought i would add a review. Price was very affordable that was a very big plus. When we arrived at about 6pm on a Wednesday and once getting through the gauntlet to find the rep for Happy Shuttle it took a fee minutes to find her. Then we had to wait for about 45 minutes until we're able to leave to the resort. The rep was very uniformed and not very helpful as to why we had to wait so long before departing. Once in the shuttle the beverages we had prepaid for were inside and ice cold which were excellent. The commute to the resort was quick ans efficient.

The return portion was simple and on time which was also extremely pleasing.

Overall it was ok just need the reps to be better informed as to why delays happen and should always keep their customers informed.

Not Too Happy

We have used Happy Shuttle on many occasions. This last scheduled pick up for a trip back to the Cancun airport was 30 minutes late. We had to call Happy Shuttle and they sent another driver. We asked what caused the delay and were told the driver just didn't come. Not sure we'll be using Happy in the future.

We got into Cancun in March during spring break since my wife and I work in the school system in Chicago area. Yes our driver was late but we understand since it’s spring break. The driver Jose was great and very friendly and he apologize to used. He reminded me so much of my father and his name is also Jose. I will used this company again.

Terrible

Terrible. Happy Shuttle did not show up on time and we were scamed by locals that said they called Happy and they were very late. So we got in a taxi with an incredibly expensive billing. DON'T USE HAPPY SHUTTLE!

Worked well for us

I would have to say it worked really well for us, the communication, the pickups and dropoffs were fine, the airport is a little chaotic, but it wasn't hard to find our pickup coordinator and on our way in 10 minutes. It was easy to book and communicate. I would personally use these folks again. Not sure about others but worked for us.
