From the best resorts in Punta Cana to the exciting nightlife, there is always something to see, do, and experience. Punta Cana offers romantic getaways, family fun, and vacations full of memories for all ages. The biggest challenge when planning your getaway is choosing where to stay — this guide makes it easier.
Cap Cana — Where the Stars Come Out to Play
Only fifteen minutes from the airport, Cap Cana is a premier destination and second home to many celebrities who own real estate on its sandy beaches. With flat-rate transportation, anyone can visit Cap Cana and feel like a celebrity.
Punta Cana Feeds Your Spirit & Your Belly
Aside from its pristine beaches, many visitors come for the food. Resort life is all about delicious experiences — a combination of Caribbean, Taíno, African, and Spanish influences. Try mangú (mashed plantain, a breakfast staple), fresh ceviche, and sancocho (a hearty seven-meat stew).
A tip: when enjoying fresh fruit, choose the kind you peel yourself, and avoid pre-cut fruits to prevent intestinal distress.
The Most Luxurious Punta Cana Resorts
For the ultimate in luxury, stay at Hyatt Zilara or Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana — five-star all-inclusive resorts on Juanillo Beach with authentic regional cuisine and elegant suites. Sanctuary Cap Cana offers 176 luxurious suites with a casino, five restaurants, and five bars.
Beautiful Beaches
For tranquility, the western side is ideal — Playa Boca Chica is one of the most peaceful, perfect for families. The Punta Cana/Bávaro stretch runs twenty miles, safe for swimming year-round.
When Is the Best Time to Visit Punta Cana?
Any time is great — weather is almost always mild, averaging in the eighties. To avoid peak season, visit between March and May. Hurricane season runs June–November, with October the rainiest month.
