Whether you would like a private pool to dip into, a superb hotel spa where you can enjoy treatments, an inclusive array of drinks and food, or you simply want to relax by the beach in style, Punta Cana has everything you could wish for. From Bavaro, just to the north of Punta Cana itself, to Cap Cana, in the south, this part of the Dominican Republic exudes luxury. All of the region's hotels are united in this regard, whether you are looking for a country club ambiance or something on a much smaller, boutique scale. Find out how to make memories with a Punta Cana vacation.
Booking one of the many boutique and luxury hotels in Punta Cana means that there will be very little that can mar your vacation. Nearly every hotel in the town has a great star rating and offers a unique style all of its own. With so much that keeps these hotels united in terms of their accommodation, service levels, and sheer luxury, it is important to know that each of the boutique hotels in the resort maintains its own distinct identity. This is important for most guests because there are plenty of standard hotels elsewhere in the Dominican Republic. Punta Cana, Bavaro, and Cap Cana, by contrast, are almost always exclusive so you can enjoy the Caribbean in great style, located in an area where the air is clean and the view will be good no matter when you choose to come.
The price per night will be a bit higher in a boutique hotel, as you might expect when compared to regular hotels on the Caribbean island. That said, booking a boutique house rental, apartment or hotel room in Punta Cana will mean being located in one of the most luxurious resorts in the whole of the Dominican Republic. The quality of property in this easternmost part of the island is high, something that you'll notice with every private house, let alone the rental villas and boutique hotel rooms. If you are coming with your family, then some hotels will have an apartment you can book or offer adjoining rooms. For couples, the private seclusion of many beach hotels offers the chance for romance in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Boutique rooms offer so much more than a bed for the night, too, with one-off style touches or impressive artwork on the walls.
Firstly, Punta Cana has its own international airport, so you won't need to worry about exactly where your accommodation is located - every apartment, house, and guest room will be accessible from the airport. Choosing the style of accommodation you want is another matter. Some people will want a luxurious pool by the beach as their top priority, while others may want to take in a round of golf. Some of the hotels in the resort have a highly-rated golf club you can use for free if you are a guest. Others may charge green fees to play golf whether or not you are a guest at the hotel. When researching whether a particular hotel is family-friendly, ideal for couples, or has other features that make it attractive to travel to, make sure you consider the review posts of other guests. How they decide on a rating of a hotel can make a big difference so read some before you bed in your travel dates and commit to a booking. What a review states can sometimes be more informative than what the official hotel information states, leaving you better informed. Just reading a few guest posts beforehand will mean nothing unexpected will mar your vacation on arrival.
What's on offer at various hotels in Punta Cana differs from hotel to hotel. However, there are some standard things you can expect. Most will have a well-kept garden to enjoy some shade in the heat of the day. The garden will often be close to an outdoor pool, a good thing to know if you want to spend some time away from the beach. In Bavaro, there are plenty of hotels with good spa facilities in-house. You can also find a high-quality spa in Punta Cana itself although these are sometimes located off-site. In Cap Cana, the golf club facilities tend to be top-notch. Hotels throughout the resort offer free Wi-Fi to guests. You may need to pay a little more for extra Wi-Fi bandwidth. However, this is something you're only likely to need for business purposes during your stay. In addition, some boutique hotels in Punta Cana offer all-inclusive deals. This means that room prices are inclusive of all food and drink, well worth knowing if you want to compare the price of a hotel in the resort with prices you've seen for accommodation elsewhere in the Dominican Republic.
Staying in Punta Cana during the high season means that room prices will be at their highest. This season runs from December through to early April, but by the middle of February, the price per night for a bed starts to drop. Boutique hotel rooms tend to be at their lowest asking prices in the summer when it is hottest. You'll find most resort prices are favorable from June through September before they begin to go up once more, something that's true of many Caribbean resorts, of course. Regardless of which dates you choose for travel, however, Punta Cana offers an exciting destination that is beautiful and friendly, so you're sure to enjoy your time there with memories that will linger forever.
