A Caribbean country that shares the island of Hispaniola with Haiti, the Dominican Republic is a destination that delights lovers of paradisiacal landscapes. Travellers discover cities with colonial architecture, a luxuriant nature and beaches bordered by warm and crystal clear waters. And don't forget the encounter with a mixed culture and locals who are always happy to share their history as well as good tips for visiting the must-see and the most unusual places. While the cold weather is well established in Europe, a trip to the Dominican Republic is an opportunity to reconnect for a few days with the pleasure of strolling in casual clothes under the sun, hiking, discovering the heritage and enjoying the joys of the beach. Set up in a resort as part of an all-inclusive holiday, the conditions are ideal for decompressing, regaining energy and having maximum fun.
Enjoy the many benefits of a beachfront resort
With a tropical climate and pleasant temperatures year-round, the Dominican Republic is a great destination for outdoor activities and hours of lounging on the beach with a cocktail in hand. Resorts welcome travelers to enjoy the many benefits of a resort. Whether you are a couple, a family or friends, you can settle into a comfortable room just a stone's throw from the sea, while enjoying services that aim to make your holiday easier and more enjoyable!
During an all-inclusive stay in a resort, you can forget about the stress of preparing meals and sit on the terrace of a restaurant with a view of the sea to taste local and international specialities. The swimming pool is the other part of the infrastructure available to relax and take a dip. Or you may prefer to join the spa after a nature excursion for a massage or to soothe aching muscles in the hammam. The resort also offers the possibility of sitting in a deckchair facing the turquoise sea to sunbathe, swim and sip a drink with a book in hand. Then, later on, you can enjoy activities such as golf, archery, while the children are introduced to the circus. Baby-sitting, clubs, childcare services allow parents to take time out together to discover the island or enjoy a romantic evening by the sea. And the least we can say is that the Dominican Republic never stops revealing its wonders!
Discover the Dominican Republic, an island of countless treasures
Nature lovers, architecture lovers, sports enthusiasts, a stay in the Dominican Republic will delight travellers with varied profiles. The hikes, on foot or by bike, lead to the exotic landscapes of the Cotubanamá National Park, one of the most beautiful areas of the island with its flowers, its birds and its manatees and dolphins that can be observed during scuba diving sessions. Nearby, the island of Sanoa can be reached by boat, for the simple pleasure of swimming in a translucent sea and drying off in the shade of a palm tree. Swimming is obviously a key activity in the Dominican Republic, and one can enjoy the superb white sand beaches of the unavoidable Punta Cana, as well as reaching unsuspected places such as the El Limon waterfall, with its pure and refreshing waters.
It is impossible to visit the Dominican Republic without visiting its sparkling capital, Santo Domingo. You can wander through its colourful streets and colonial architecture, before stopping at the foot of its most emblematic monuments such as the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Incarnation and the Alcazar de Colón. We also like to discover the places where we can try the local cuisine, and then take a digestive stroll along the seafront. The trip is memorable in many ways.
The beautiful bay of Samana still preserved from mass tourism, the ascent of Pico Duarte (the highest peak in the Caribbean), the dunes of Bani, the mysterious caves of Los Haitises National Park and the ancestral charm of Altos de Chavón, a replica of a 16th century Mediterranean village, the magic works at every moment in the Dominican Republic, and for sure.
