The cheapest reliable way to go would be by commuter bus. Take the Metro or Caribe Tours to Santo Domingo. Then a taxi to the La Romana bus stop. There are busses leaving both points almost on the hour. To return from La Romana to Santo Domingo take the bus to Santo Domingo.
Rosario taxi has long been a dr1 advertiser and have seen no complaints for his service.
Ask him for rates.

Agreed with you, on vacation time I don't want to bargain for my transportation especially in a foreign country.
Use the company Dolores suggested, I'm a former transporter in the DR and I can endorse as a "five stars " this Company.
Transporting tourist in the DR has as many requirements as we have here in the US for operating a taxi business.
I have had to deal with all theses legal and safety procedures in both countries!

Coco tours is a good company with many years in service. My advice is to arrange your transportation with a local company of Santiago and on your way back to the airport use another one posted in LA Romans. Coco Tours doesn't have office in Santiago.
I would recommended Jimenez SA. I don't have the contact info but can help if you need.

Send an Email to Joselito, he is the most responsible tourist driver I ever met in DR, he is a member of North coast tourist transporter, he is located no too far from Santiago...

There is something I don't understand, why are you going to met at the Caribe tours bus station?
If you are arriving on a Bus from somewhere else in the DR why don't just get off at the SD terminal enstead of Santiago...will be the closer and cheaper way for you to get to La Romana...

I will be traveling with my wife and 2 kids. Just wanted to break down the trip. But we can certainly get off at the SD Caribe Bus Terminal.
