With courses listed as the best in the Caribbean and Latin America time and time again, the Dominican Republic is a haven for golfers.

Take your golf getaway over the putting edge when you stay at Casa de Campo Resort and Villas, giving you access to three stunning ranges including the Teeth of the Dog, consistently rated as a top choice on the island!

With great paradise comes great natural beauty and the Dominican Republic is no exception! The island is blessed with varied landscapes to explore and some really unique ways to explore it. Get a bird’s eye view of the lush rainforest ziplining at the thrilling Scape Park in Punta Cana. Unleash your inner Indiana (Junior) Jones uncovering ancient caves once used by the original inhabitants of the island for different rituals and refuge. Get a close look at what the Dominican’s countryside holds with a hike to iconic attractions like Puerto Plata’s 27 Charcos de Damajagua, a series of cascades you can jump off of or slide down! Match the energy of this destination when you stay at Iberostar Costa Dorada, an all inclusive resort committed to protecting paradise’s beauty for the future.
Live lavishly during your stay in the Dominican
If you really want to take your Dominican escape to the next level, the perfect place to start is Punta Cana! A popular choice for northern vacationers (ever heard of Punta Canada?), this sprawling white-sand coastline is modern beachfront living at its finest, with plenty of opportunities for couples, families and friends to elevate their stay, like the always sparkling Diamond Club™ inclusions at Royalton Bavaro An Autograph Collection All Inclusive Resort and Casino. But the resorts aren’t the only bright spots – the city’s nightlife is abundant with classy nightclubs for the young at heart to dance the night away, while those who want to keep it casual can enjoy a cocktail and hand-rolled cigars (ooh la la!) under the stars at charming marinas and oceanfront lounges.
