Get curious about the world around you
Remember those days when you asked every question that came to mind? Leave no stone unturned as you explore the history and culture of the Dominican Republic in La Romana! A haven for beach vacations and golf getaways with world-renowned courses (if that’s how you swing), the real treasures can be found at Altos de Chavón, a 16th century replica Mediterranean village and cultural hub where you can explore the island’s history, admire local artwork and even catch a live show at the 5,000-seat amphitheatre. Step even further back in time in the Cave of Wonders with some of the most well-preserved rock paintings and carvings made by the aboriginal Taino people centuries ago.
Where to stay: If these two gems have piqued your interest, book a stay nearby at Casa de Campo Resort and Villas. One of the most stylish La Romana all inclusive resorts, this property offers a snazzy beach club, spacious villas to fit your whole group, a Family Fun Zone, not to mention three of the best golf courses in the Caribbean. You’re sure to feel like a kid again!
Be fearless in all that splashing around
Puerto Plata is where tourism really kicked off in the Dominican Republic and it’s no surprise, with a spectacular landscape combining sea, mountains, lush valleys, rivers and beautiful beaches. It also offers the best conditions for non-motorized water sports, making it the perfect place to make a splash. Throw caution to the wind – well, not really… but summon up the unrestricted courage you once had and ride the waves with surfing, windsurfing or kiteboarding in nearby Cabarete. Why not also try canyoning at 27 Charcos de Damajuaga, a series of beautiful waterfalls, hidden in Puerto Plata’s tropical jungle, riding the rapids past the lush landscapes or snorkelling alongside colourful marine life through the crystal-clear waters off the coast of Cayo Arena!
Where to stay: If Unlimited Fun® is what you’re after, Sunscape Puerto Plata Dominican Republic’s Puerto Plata resort is all about having a good time. Young ones will love the Explorer’s Kids Club and Core Zone Teens Club featuring treasure hunts, weekly campouts and more, plus non-motorized water sports available on site if you can’t get enough. For an elevated stay, upgrade to Sun Club accommodations featuring added amenities in adults only and family-friendly settings.
Feel the thrills in the tropics
Famous worldwide for having some of the best beaches in the Dominican Republic, Punta Cana is also a hub for adrenaline junkies with two of the most unique theme parks you’ve ever seen. Get that heart-in-your-throat feeling again at Scape Park with ziplining from cliffs, swimming through underground caves, exploring ancient caverns and more, plus an exclusive beach club where you can catch your breath (and a tan)! You can carve your own path through paradise at Bavaro Adventure Park with an off-roading ATV circuit through an abandoned mine or take your foot off the gas and giddy up to fun with a horseback tour along nature trails through the beautiful countryside.
Where to stay: After all that excitement, you’re going to need a place to unwind – enter Riu Palace Macao, one of the most sought-after adults only resorts in the Dominican Republic! Fuel up between adventures with international à la carte dining, kick back poolside with a drink in hand (compliments of handy wait service) or keep the good times going at the on-site water park and weekly pool party.
Enjoy nightlife like you’re 20 again
While you might not be able to keep up with the kids, that doesn’t mean you still can’t get down! The island’s capital city of Santo Domingo isn’t just a centre for history (even though it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site), it also offers incredible nightlife! Get your groove on at Mamma Club with a pounding dancefloor and – get this – a pizzeria attached to the club (we’re all for late-night snacks!). For something more relaxed but still lively, Sabina Bar gives all those speakeasy vibes with a late last call. Still hungry? Head to the Plaza España in the Colonial Zone where you can sample the island’s delicious cuisine surrounded by beautiful colonial architecture.
Where to stay: Coral Costa Caribe Resort is just a short drive from Santo Domingo and its historic landmarks. Aside from being perfectly situated to explore the city, you can enjoy the best of Dominican Republic vacations with its stunning, palm-lined beach, sparkling pool featuring a waterfall grotto and classic activities like snorkelling and pedal boat rides.
