Book Your Perfect Punta Cana Vacation

The best time to visit Punta Cana is from December to April. This is the dry season but is also the busiest tourist season. If you want a warm vacation in the middle of winter, it’s hard to beat Punta Cana. 

Punta Cana uses Dominican Pesos (DOP) as currency, and if you’re planning a trip to Punta Cana, stop by your local bank to exchange your U.S. dollars for DOP. You can get DOP when you land, but you’ll probably get a better exchange rate if you exchange money before you leave. 

The resorts in Punta Cana are designed to make your vacation easier. They offer lodging, food and great amenities all in one location. But if you are trying to figure out where to stay in Punta Cana but don’t want to pay for a resort, smaller hotels in the area are still comfortable without all the frills. 

While the warm weather and relaxing atmosphere are enough for most people, there are many other fun things to experience in Punta Cana. Here are a few Punta Cana attractions that you have to see:

• Catch a baseball game to catch up-and-coming players.
• Hit the links at La Cana Golf Course.
• Step back in time to the Mediterranean village at Altos de Chavón.
• Take a swim in the stunning sinkhole, Hoyo Azul Lagoon.

Go snorkeling or scuba diving at Isla Catalina.

The price of a trip to Punta Cana depends on a few important factors, including airfare, accommodations, and the season you’re visiting. Punta Cana can be a cheap honeymoon destination compared to other tropical destinations. Book your travel to Punta Cana early and plan an offseason visit to make the trip easier on your pocketbook.

Vacationing in Punta Cana is popular because the area is beautiful, there is a lot to do and see, and it is more affordable than visiting somewhere like Hawaii. While saving money is great, the culture and Punta Cana beaches make it worth the visit. If you’re searching for the perfect honeymoon destination, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more beautiful and relaxing location.

If you booked a stay at an all-inclusive resort in Punta Cana, you can walk around the area. You have a few options if you want to explore more of the island, though. You can rent a car, take a taxi or use a rideshare app. Talk to the concierge at your hotel for taxi recommendations, as these rides can get expensive.

If you’re planning a trip to the Dominican Republic, Punta Cana is a great vacation destination for families. Many all-inclusive resorts have activities that are great for kids, and the surrounding areas have everything from adventure parks to nature reserves. Two resorts that are family-friendly (but with different styles) are the Nickelodeon Resort and Margaritaville Island Reserve Cap Cana. The Nickelodeon Resort in Punta Cana has themed meals, a water park, spas and fine dining. Meanwhile, Margaritaville offers kid-friendly activities and relaxation for the adults.
