Where to Stay in the Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic has become a popular destination for all types of vacationers. The main reason is because the Dominican Republic has resorts to accommodate everyone, from families on vacation to honeymooners.

The south coast of the island, from Punta Cana all the way to Santo Domingo, has an abundance of resorts each with something unique to offer. One of the biggest all inclusives in this area is the Casa de Campo in La Romana. This resort is located on over 7,000 acres and has many ways for you to spend your vacation time. From horseback riding and golf to tennis or water sports, this resort has it all. If you get restless, take a walk over to the Marina and do some shopping or have a cool drink and relax in one of the restaurants.

Dominican Republic resorts are very popular for family vacations because of the loads of amenities they offer to keep the whole family entertained and happy. If you have ever wanted a family concierge at your disposal, you must try the Paradisus Palma real in Playa de Bavaro located in Punta Cana. The family concierge will keep the kids happy and safe with activities just for them. They will take such good care of your kids that you will be able to relax by the pool or beach. There is so much for the kids to do; they probably will not even miss you.

If you have teenagers, the Club Med in Punta Cana is a very popular resort in the Dominican Republic for this age group. This resort has special activities for kids of all ages from 2-17 but the teen program is exceptional. At the Ramp, a lounge just for them, teens can spend their days skateboarding, playing tag football or just hanging out.

On the northern coast of the Dominican Republic, near Puerto Plata, there are not as many mega resorts but there is still a big variety to select from. What makes this area attractive are all the things you can do. One big attraction is the Ocean World Marine and Water Park. This park has a sea lion encounter, a shark interaction pool and a huge dolphin lagoon. This area is also very popular with windsurfers and is known as one of the best windsurfing destinations in the world.

To decide where to stay in the Dominican Republic, first determine what type of vacation you are going to take, what part of the island you want to visit, and then chose the resort that suits your needs. You will find there is no shortage of things to do and places to stay at in the Dominican Republic
