The Dominican Republic: a small Caribbean nation full of happy and passionate people who will welcome you to their country with open arms and ensure you go home with life-long memories. Keen to rid itself of the misconception that it is nothing more than an all-inclusive beach resort destination, the Dominican Republic is truly so much more, with an abundance of national parks, nature reserves, rainforests, lakes, rivers, mountains and fantastic snorkelling and diving spots. If you’re interested in wildlife and marine life, you’re guaranteed to be wow-ed, with opportunities to spot iguanas, sea turtles, manatees, flamingoes, endemic birds and northern humpback whales – just to name a few. The eclectic mix of people with their indigenous, African and European roots means their traditions and culture is varied, their food is a fusion of flavours and their music is full of rhythm.
Whether you’re looking for a beach break, a cultural immersion, an outdoor adventure or a mix of all three, The Dominican Republic will not disappoint.

Blessed with one of the Caribbean’s longest white sand coastlines (48 kms), punctuated with sky-reaching coconut palms – Punta Cana is the land of rest and relaxation by the sea. Families can expect modern beach front living and enjoy miniature entertainment centres and water parks for children, while couples-only enclaves boast dream locations, with secluded beachside lodging for an ultra-romantic stay.
But it’s not only about fun in the sun, soft sand brushing against your toes, and iridescent, clear water to swim in, go fishing, or dive for underwater life. Punta Cana is also a golfer’s destination, with 10 courses located all along the strip, a seaside escape with luxurious marinas and fine dining, and a wellness corner home to the country’s top spas, including the only Six Senses in the Caribbean.
